The association between NAFLD and risk of chronic kidney disease: a cross-sectional study
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and NAFLD with different comorbidities and risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and abnormal albuminuria. Materials and Methods: A total of 3872 Chinese individuals excluding those with...

| Sumario: | Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and NAFLD with different comorbidities and risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and abnormal albuminuria. Materials and Methods: A total of 3872 Chinese individuals excluding those with hepatitis B or C infection and absence of alcohol abuse were included in the study. NAFLD was diagnosed by abdominal ultrasonography. The liver fibrosis was assessed by NAFLD fibrosis score (NFS) and fibrosis-4 index (FIB-4). CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 ml/min/1.73 m 2 and/or abnormal albuminuria (urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio ⩾ 3 mg/mmol). The logistic regression analysis was performed to examine the association between NAFLD and NAFLD with different comorbidities and risk of CKD. Results: The prevalence of CKD and abnormal albuminuria was higher in individuals with NAFLD than in those without NAFLD (15.8% vs 11.9%, p < 0.001; 14.8% vs 11.0%, p < 0.001). Logistic regression analysis demonstrated that NAFLD was risk factor of CKD. Notably, after adjustment for sex, age, and DM, NAFLD was associated with 1.31-fold higher risk of prevalent CKD ⩾ 1 ( p < 0.05). NAFLD individuals with elder age, DM, obesity, hypertension, MetS, and advanced liver fibrosis had higher risks of both prevalent CKD and abnormal albuminuria than those without comorbidities. Conclusions: NAFLD and NAFLD with traditional comorbidities are strongly associated with risk of prevalence of CKD and abnormal albuminuria. Patients with NAFLD especially those with coexisting comorbidities were recommended to carefully access the development of CKD. |
