Abstract:
Objective: Obesity is an established risk factor for kidney damage. In this study, we explored the long-term association of changes in body mass index (BMI) over time with incident chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods: For this analysis, 5,393 middle-aged adults without comorbidities in the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study (KoGES) were included. Group-based trajectory modeling was used to determine the patterns of BMI change (decreasing, stable, and increasing BMI) between baseline and year 4. The primary outcome was the subsequent development of CKD from year 4. A multivariable Cox proportional hazards model was constructed to determine the risk of incident CKD according to BMI trajectories. Results: During 55,327 person-years, incident CKD occurred in 354 (6.5%) participants; 6.0, 6.1, and 7.8 per 1,000 person-years across the trajectories, respectively ( P = 0.005). In the multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazards model, the increasing BMI trajectory was associated with a 1.4-fold [hazard ratio (HR), 1.41; 95% CI, 1.06–1.87] a higher risk of incident CKD compared with stable BMI trajectory. This association was stronger for overweight and obese individuals. The HRs for CKD development in these two groups were 1.6 (95% CI, 1.06–1.87) and 2.2 (95% CI, 1.40–3.48), respectively. While the increasing BMI group was gaining weight, there were concomitant increases in blood pressure, insulin resistance, serum concentrations of total cholesterol, triglyceride, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and fat mass, but high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol level and muscle-to-fat (MF) ratio decreased. Conclusion: Weight gain is associated with an increased risk of incident CKD in healthy adults. This association is attributed to worsening metabolic profiles and increasing fat mass.
