Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the influence of change in blood pressure status from childhood to adulthood on renal damage.
Methods:Data were obtained from Beijing Blood Pressure Cohort initiated from 1987. 3 198 children and adolescents aged 6-18 years from 6 primary and 6 middle schools in Chaoyang, Xicheng and Haidian Districts of Beijing were enrolled at baseline by using a cluster random sampling method, and 1 222 participants were followed up during 2010-2012. The measurements included weight, height, and blood pressure at baseline and microalbumin, serum creatinine, cystatin C and blood pressure at follow-up. Based on blood pressure status in childhood and adulthood, the participants were divided into four groups: participants with normal blood pressure in both childhood and adulthood, participants with elevated blood pressure in childhood but normal blood pressure in adulthood, participants with normal blood pressure in childhood but elevated blood pressure in adulthood, and participants with elevated blood pressure in both childhood and adulthood. Multivariate linear regression model was used to investigate the association of change in blood pressure from childhood to adulthood on renal dysfunction.
Results:The prevalence of elevated blood pressure in childhood and adulthood was 17.9% and 39.9%, respectively. The P50 (P25-P75) of microalbumin was 5.7(3.0-12.0) mg/L, and the concentration of eGFR and cystatin C were (118.0±19.8)% and (0.734±0.184)mg/L, respectively. With adjustment for sex, baseline age and follow-up years, compared with participants with persistently normal blood pressure from childhood to adulthood, participants with normal blood pressure in childhood but elevated blood pressure in adulthood had significantly higher levels of microalbumin (β=0.502, 95%CI: 0.320-0.684) and cystatin C (β=0.049, 95%CI: 0.025-0.073). After adjustment for sex, baseline age, follow-up duration, and adult BMI, smoking and drinking, participants with normal blood pressure in childhood and elevated blood pressure in adulthood had higher levels of adult urine microalbumin (β=0.322, 95%CI: 0.128-0.516) and cystatin C (β=0.032, 95%CI:0.007-0.057).
Conclusion:An increase in blood pressure during childhood and adulthood has an adverse impact on renal functional damage in adulthood. These findings underscore the importance of maintaining normal blood pressure during life course to prevent the development of chronic kidney disease.
