AIMS: To investigate the observational association between plasma triglyceride and CKD in patients with T2DM.
METHODS: A hospital-based retrospective registry was used to obtain data of 3,748 T2DM patients from May 2016 to October 2016. Anthropometric measurements and biochemical reports of T2DM patients with CKD were obtained by data extraction of medical records. CKD was defined according to the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR< 60 mL/min/1.73 m). Multiple logistic regression was used to determine the association between plasma triglyceride and CKD.
RESULTS: The mean age of the participants was 61.4 ± 11.0 years, and a majority of them was female (64%) with poor glycemic control (83%), increased plasma triglyceride (51%) and 27% of T2DM patients had CKD. There was a significant trend towards deteriorating renal function (lower eGFR) with categorically raised triglyceride levels. After controlling for age, sex and other confounders, 'borderline high' (adjusted odds ratio (OR): 1.24, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01-1.54), 'high' (adjusted OR: 1.52, 95% CI: 1.24-1.85) and 'very high' (adjusted OR: 3.40, 95% CI: 1.94-5.94) triglyceride level groups had higher likelihood to have CKD compared to normal triglyceride level.
CONCLUSION: CKD was associated with a higher level of plasma triglyceride among patients with T2DM. These results support the rationale to screen and manage increased triglyceride in routine clinical practices among persons with diabetes to prevent CKD.
