BACKGROUND:Sudden death accounts for approximately 25% of deaths among maintenance hemodialysis patients, occurring more frequently on hemodialysis days. Higher dialysate bicarbonate (DBIC) may predispose to alkalemia and arrhythmogenesis. METHODS:We conducted a 12-month analysis of session-level data from 66 patients with implantable loop recorders. We fit logistic regression and negative binomial mixed-effects regression models to assess the association of DBIC with clinically significant arrhythmia (ventricular tachycardia ≥115 beats per minute [BPM] for at least 30 seconds, bradycardia ≤40 BPM for at least 6 seconds, or asystole for at least 3 seconds) and reviewer confirmed arrhythmia (RCA—implantable loop recorder-identified or patient-marked event for which a manual review of the stored electrocardiogram tracing confirmed the presence of atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia, sinus tachycardia with rate >130 BPM, ventricular tachycardia, asystole, or bradycardia). Models adjusted for age, sex, race, hemodialysis vintage, vascular access, and prehemodialysis serum bicarbonate and additionally for serum and dialysate potassium levels. RESULTS:The mean age was 56±12 years, 70% were male, 53% were Black, and 35% were Asian. Fewer RCA episodes were associated with DBIC >35 than 35 mEq/L (incidence rate ratio 0.45 [0.27 to 0.75] and adjusted incident rate ratio 0.54 [0.30 to 0.97]), but the association was not significant when adjusting for serum and dialysate potassium levels (adjusted incident rate ratio, 0.60 [0.32 to 1.11]). Otherwise, no associations between DBIC and arrhythmia were identified. CONCLUSIONS:We observed a lower frequency of RCA with higher DBIC, compared with DBIC of 35 mEql/L, contrary to our original hypothesis, but this association was attenuated in fully adjusted models. Validation of these findings in larger studies is required, with a further need for interventional studies to explore the optimal DBIC concentration.

Mann, Johannes F E; Rossing, Peter; Bakris, George; Belmar, Nicolas; Bosch-Traberg, Heidrun; Busch, Robert; Charytan, David M; Hadjadj, Samy; Gillard, Pieter; Górriz, José Luis; Idorn, Thomas; Ji, Linong; Mahaffey, Kenneth W; Perkovic, Vlado; Rasmussen, Søren; Schmieder, Roland E; Pratley, Richard E; Tuttle, Katherine R
People with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease have a high risk for kidney failure and cardiovascular (CV) complications. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) independently reduce CV and kidney events. The effect of combining both is unclear. FLOW trial participants with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease were stratified by baseline SGLT2i use (N = 550) or no use (N = 2,983) and randomized to semaglutide/placebo. The primary outcome was a composite of kidney failure, ≥50% estimated glomerular filtration rate reduction, kidney death or CV death. The risk of the primary outcome was 24% lower in all participants treated with semaglutide versus placebo (95% confidence interval: 34%, 12%). The primary outcome occurred in 41/277 (semaglutide) versus 38/273 (placebo) participants on SGLT2i at baseline (hazard ratio 1.07; 95% confidence interval: 0.69, 1.67; P = 0.755) and in 290/1,490 versus 372/1,493 participants not taking SGLT2i at baseline (hazard ratio 0.73; 0.63, 0.85; P < 0.001; P interaction 0.109). Three confirmatory secondary outcomes were predefined. Treatment differences favoring semaglutide for total estimated glomerular filtration rate slope (ml min-1/1.73 m2/year) were 0.75 (-0.01, 1.5) in the SGLT2i subgroup and 1.25 (0.91, 1.58) in the non-SGLT2i subgroup, P interaction 0.237. Semaglutide benefits on major CV events and all-cause death were similar regardless of SGLT2i use (P interaction 0.741 and 0.901, respectively). The benefits of semaglutide in reducing kidney outcomes were consistent in participants with/without baseline SGLT2i use; power was limited to detect smaller but clinically relevant effects.

Geographic and racial variability in kidney, cardiovascular and safety outcomes with canagliflozin: A secondary analysis of the CREDENCE randomized trial
Cardoza, Kathryn; Kang, Amy; Smyth, Brendan; Yi, Tae Won; Pollock, Carol; Agarwal, Rajiv; Bakris, George; Charytan, David M; de Zeeuw, Dick; Wheeler, David C; Zhang, Hong; Cannon, Christopher P; Perkovic, Vlado; Arnott, Clare; Levin, Adeera; Mahaffey, Kenneth W
AIM/OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of canagliflozin on kidney and cardiovascular events and safety outcomes in individuals with type 2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease across geographic regions and racial groups. MATERIALS AND METHODS/METHODS:A stratified Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess efficacy and safety outcomes by geographic region and racial group. The primary composite outcome was a composite of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), doubling of the serum creatinine (SCr) level, or death from kidney or cardiovascular causes. Secondary outcomes included: (i) cardiovascular death or heart failure (HF) hospitalization; (ii) cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke; (iii) HF hospitalization; (iv) doubling of the SCr level, ESKD or kidney death; (v) cardiovascular death; (vi) all-cause death; and (vii) cardiovascular death, MI, stroke, or hospitalization for HF or for unstable angina. RESULTS:The 4401 patients were divided into six geographic region subgroups: North America (n = 1182, 27%), Central and South America (n = 941, 21%), Eastern Europe (n = 947, 21%), Western Europe (n = 421, 10%), Asia (n = 749, 17%) and Other (n = 161, 4%). The analyses included four racial groups: White (n = 2931, 67%), Black or African American (n = 224, 5%), Asian (n = 877, 20%) and Other (n = 369, 8%). Canagliflozin reduced the relative risk of the primary composite outcome in the overall trial by 30% (hazard ratio 0.70, 95% confidence interval 0.59-0.82; P = 0.00001). Across geographic regions and racial groups, canagliflozin consistently reduced the primary composite endpoint without evidence of heterogeneity (interaction P values of 0.39 and 0.91, respectively) or significant safety outcome differences. CONCLUSIONS:Canagliflozin reduces the risk of kidney and cardiovascular events similarly across geographic regions and racial groups.

Cardiovascular outcomes with semaglutide by severity of chronic kidney disease in type 2 diabetes: the FLOW trial
Mahaffey, Kenneth W; Tuttle, Katherine R; Arici, Mustafa; Baeres, Florian M M; Bakris, George; Charytan, David M; Cherney, David Z I; Chernin, Gil; Correa-Rotter, Ricardo; Gumprecht, Janusz; Idorn, Thomas; Pugliese, Giuseppe; Rasmussen, Ida Kirstine Bull; Rasmussen, Søren; Rossing, Peter; Sokareva, Ekaterina; Mann, Johannes F E; Perkovic, Vlado; Pratley, Richard
BACKGROUND AND AIMS/OBJECTIVE:In the FLOW trial, semaglutide reduced the risks of kidney and cardiovascular (CV) outcomes and death in participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). These prespecified analyses assessed the effects of semaglutide on CV outcomes and death by CKD severity. METHODS:Participants were randomised to subcutaneous semaglutide 1 mg or placebo weekly. The main outcome was a composite of CV death, non-fatal myocardial infarction (MI) ornon-fatal stroke (CV death/MI/stroke) as well as death due to any cause by baseline CKD severity. CKD was categorised by eGFR < or ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2, UACR < or ≥300 mg/g or KDIGO risk classification. RESULTS:3533 participants were randomised with a median follow-up of 3.4 years. Low/moderate KDIGO risk was present in 242 (6.9%), while 878 (24.9%) had high and 2412 (68.3%) had very high KDIGO risk. Semaglutide reduced CV death/MI/stroke by 18% (HR 0.82 [95% CI 0.68-0.98]; P = .03), with consistency across eGFR categories, UACR levels and KDIGO risk classification (all P-interaction >.13). Death due to any cause was reduced by 20% (HR 0.80 [0.67-0.95]; P = .01), with consistency across eGFR categories and KDIGO risk class (P-interaction .21 and .23, respectively). The P-interaction treatment effect for death due to any cause by UACR was .01 (<300 mg/g HR 1.17 [0.83-1.65]; ≥300 mg/g HR 0.70 [0.57-0.85]). CONCLUSIONS:Semaglutide significantly reduced the risk of CV death/MI/stroke regardless of baseline CKD severity in participants with T2D.

BACKGROUND:Sudden death accounts for ∼25% of deaths among maintenance hemodialysis (HD) patients, occurring more frequently on HD days. Higher dialysate bicarbonate (DBIC) may predispose to alkalemia and arrhythmogenesis. METHODS:We conducted a 12-month analysis of session-level data from 66 patients with implantable loop recorders. We fit logistic regression and negative binomial mixed effects regression models to assess the association of DBIC with clinically significant arrhythmia (CSA - ventricular tachycardia ≥115 beats per minute (BPM) for at least 30 seconds, bradycardia ≤40 BPM for at least 6 seconds, or asystole for at least 3 seconds) and reviewer confirmed arrhythmia (RCA - implantable-loop-recorder-identified or patient-marked event for which a manual review of the stored ECG tracing confirmed the presence of atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia, sinus tachycardia with rate >130 BPM, ventricular tachycardia, asystole, or bradycardia). Models adjusted for age, sex, race, HD vintage, vascular access, and pre-HD serum bicarbonate and additionally for serum and dialysate potassium levels. RESULTS:Mean age was 56 ± 12 years, 70% were male, 53% were Black, and 35% were Asian. Fewer RCA episodes were associated with DBIC >35 than 35 mEq/L (incidence rate ratio [IRR] 0.45 (0.27, 0.75) and aIRR 0.54 (0.30, 0.97)), but the association was not significant when adjusting for serum and dialysate potassium levels (aIRR 0.60 (0.32, 1.11)). Otherwise, no associations between DBIC and arrhythmia were identified.

Chronic kidney disease and risk of kidney or urothelial malignancy: systematic review and meta-analysis
Brooks, Emily R; Siriruchatanon, Mutita; Prabhu, Vinay; Charytan, David M; Huang, William C; Chen, Yu; Kang, Stella K
BACKGROUND:Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is highly prevalent, affecting approximately 11% of U.S. adults. Multiple studies have evaluated a potential association between CKD and urinary tract malignancies. Summary estimates of urinary tract malignancy risk in CKD patients with and without common co-existing conditions may guide clinical practice recommendations. METHODS:Four electronic databases were searched for original cohort studies evaluating the association between CKD and urinary tract cancers (kidney cancer and urothelial carcinoma) through May 25, 2023, in persons with at least moderate CKD and no dialysis or kidney transplantation. Quality assessment was performed for studies meeting inclusion criteria using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Meta-analysis with a random-effects model was performed for unadjusted incidence rate ratios (IRR) as well as adjusted hazard ratios (aHR) for confounding conditions (diabetes, hypertension, and/or tobacco use), shown to have association with kidney cancer and urothelial carcinoma. Sub-analysis was conducted for estimates associated with CKD stages separately. RESULTS:Six cohort studies with 8 617 563 persons were included. Overall, methodological quality of the studies was good. CKD was associated with both higher unadjusted incidence and adjusted hazard of kidney cancer (IRR, 3.36; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.32-4.88; aHR, 2.04; 95% CI, 1.77-2.36) and urothelial cancer (IRR, 3.96; 95% CI, 2.44-6.40; aHR, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.22-1.68) compared with persons without CKD. Examining incident urinary tract cancers by CKD severity, risks were elevated in stage 3 CKD (kidney aHR, 1.89; 95% CI, 1.56-2.30; urothelial carcinoma aHR, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.18-1.65) as well as in stages 4/5 CKD (kidney cancer aHR, 2.30; 95% CI, 2.00-2.66, UC aHR, 1.24; 95% CI, 1.04-1.49). CONCLUSIONS:Even moderate CKD is associated with elevated risk of kidney cancer and UC. Providers should consider these elevated risks when managing individuals with CKD, particularly when considering evaluation for the presence and etiology of hematuria.

Arrhythmia and Time of Day in Maintenance Hemodialysis: Secondary Analysis of the Monitoring in Dialysis Study
Soomro, Qandeel H; Koplan, Bruce A; Costea, Alexandru I; Roy-Chaudhury, Prabir; Tumlin, James A; Kher, Vijay; Williamson, Don E; Pokhariyal, Saurabh; McClure, Candace K; Charytan, David M; ,
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE/UNASSIGNED:The incidence of arrhythmia varies by time of day. How this affects individuals on maintenance dialysis is uncertain. Our objective was to quantify the relationship of arrhythmia with the time of day and timing of dialysis. STUDY DESIGN/UNASSIGNED:Secondary analysis of the Monitoring in Dialysis study, a multicenter prospective cohort study. SETTINGS & PARTICIPANTS/UNASSIGNED:Loop recorders were implanted for continuous cardiac monitoring in 66 participants on maintenance dialysis with a follow up of 6 months. EXPOSURE/UNASSIGNED:Time of day based on 6-hour intervals. OUTCOMES/UNASSIGNED:Event rates of clinically significant arrhythmia. ANALYTICAL APPROACH/UNASSIGNED:Negative binomial mixed effects regression models for repeated measures were used to evaluate data from the Monitoring in Dialysis study for differences in diurnal patterns of clinically significant arrhythmia among those with end-stage kidney disease with heart failure and end-stage kidney disease alone. We additionally analyzed rates according to presence of heart failure, time of dialysis shift, and dialysis versus nondialysis day. RESULTS/UNASSIGNED: = 0.43), their periodicity differed with a peak between 12:00 AM and 5:59 AM in those with AM dialysis and a later peak between 6:00 AM and 11:59 AM in those with PM shifts. LIMITATIONS/UNASSIGNED:Post hoc analysis, unable to account for unmeasured confounders. CONCLUSION/UNASSIGNED:Clinically significant arrhythmias showed strong diurnal patterns with a maximal peak between 12:00 AM and 5:59 AM and noon. Although overall arrhythmia rates were similar, the peak rate occurred overnight in individuals without heart failure and during the morning in individuals with heart failure. Further exploration of the influence of circadian rhythm on arrhythmia in the setting of hemodialysis is needed.
