  • Effect of Proteinuria on Residual Renal Function in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

    ObjectiveTo observe whether proteinuria is relate to the decline of residual renal function (RRF) in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. MethodsThis is a prospective cohort study including 45 PD patients (underwent PD between January 2011 and January 2013) with a 12-month follow-up. All the patients were divided into 2 groups with respect to the initial proteinuria level: massive proteinuria group A (n=20) and non-massive proteinuria group B (n=25) at baseline. We established regression models to do univariate analysis and multivariate analysis of the relationship between the decline of RRF≥50% of baseline and the indices of age, sex, PD-associated peritonitis, baseliner residual glomerular filtration rate (rGFR), initial proteinuria, and use of ACEI/ARB. ResultsThe primary outcome (RRF>50% of baseline) at 12 months was 65% in group A, and 80% in group B (P<0.05). Based both on the results of univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis, non-massive proteinuria and higher rGFR at baseline were factors to protect RRF from decline (P<0.05). ConclusionThe study demonstrates that massive proteinuria and lower rGFR at baseline may be associated with a rapid decline of RRF in PD patients. Treatment aimed at reducing albuminuria may lead to protect RRF and improve life quality of patients.
