Abstract
Publisher Copyright: © 2021, The Author(s).Background: While the impact of low glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on various outcomes has been extensively studied, the other adverse occurrence, renal hyperfiltration (RHF), remains understudied, poorly defined, and, therefore, its impact on mortality unestablished. Methods: Using a population-based subcohort from the Kuopio Ischaemic Disease Risk Factor Study restricted to non-diabetic Finnish men aged 54 or 55 years, we followed up n = 1179 study participants for up to 35 years. We evaluated the hazard of all-cause mortality associated to RHF at different cutoff points defining eGFR. Based on models’ accuracy we suggested an optimal eGFR cutoff point for the definition of RHF. We divided the RHF category to three subgroups and evaluated them in terms of baseline characteristics and mortality hazard. Results: The eGFR value of 97 mL/min/1.73 m2 corresponded to the models with the highest accuracy. Overall RHF associated with an increased risk of mortality (hazard ratio [HR] 1.42; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.21 to 1.67). Moderate RHF associated with a decreased HR of mortality when compared to mild (0.64; 95% CI 0.46 to 0.9) or to extreme RHF (0.61; 95% CI 0.43 to 0.85), suggesting a rather U-shaped relationship between RHF’s eGFR values and mortality hazard. Conclusion: The burden of increased eGFR within what is still considered normal eGFR category was highly underestimated. RHF’s eGFR values had a U-shaped association with the risk of overall mortality. A more uniform consensual definition of RHF is needed, as higher to normal eGFR values that are not without consequences.Peer reviewe
