Abstract 10683: Association Between Triglycerides and Incident Chronic Kidney Disease in Diabetics Across Stages of Albuminuria

BackgroundHypertriglyceridemia, a component of the metabolic syndrome, is a known independent predictor of albuminuria and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the general population. Urine albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) and albuminuria are critical components in CKD staging as well as a hallmark of...

Description
Summary:BackgroundHypertriglyceridemia, a component of the metabolic syndrome, is a known independent predictor of albuminuria and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the general population. Urine albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) and albuminuria are critical components in CKD staging as well as a hallmark of diabetic kidney disease. We sought to evaluate the relationship of triglycerides (TG) with incident CKD in diabetic non-CKD patients, stratified by level of albuminuria, which has been less studied thus far. MethodsThis study comprised of 99,705 diabetic non-CKD veterans with data on TG and MetS components. The incident CKD outcome was defined as multiple eGFR measurements of
