Abstract

Background Patients having type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at high risk of cardiovascular events. Triglyceride-rich lipoprotein levels are synergistically increased in patients with DM and CKD. This study examined the predictive value of remnant lipoprotein levels for cardiovascular events in patients with DM and CKD.Methods Three hundred and sixty-five patients with type 2 DM and CKD were enrolled. Serum levels of remnant lipoproteins (remnant-like lipoprotein particles cholesterol; RLP-C) were measured by an immunoseparation method. All patients were followed prospectively for a period of 45±23 months or until occurrence of one of the following events: cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, unstable angina requiring unplanned coronary revascularization, or ischemic stroke.Results During the follow-up period, 59 patients had cardiovascular events. Multivariate Cox analysis revealed that high levels of RLP-C (≥4.3mg/dL; median value) were a significant risk factor for cardiovascular events, independent of traditional risk factors (HR: 1.30; 95% CI: 1.04-1.63; p=0.02). The addition of high levels of RLP-C to traditional risk factors improved net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) (NRI 0.36, p=0.01; and IDI 0.03, p=0.02).Conclusions RLP-C is useful for risk assessment of future cardiovascular events in patients having type 2 DM and CKD.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
