Abstract:

High albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR) and low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) are biomarkers of kidney disease that are associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and all-cause mortality in persons with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The Look AHEAD randomized clinical trial in adults with T2D measured ACR and eGFR longitudinally and followed subjects for time to fatal and non-fatal CVD events and to all-cause mortality. We use multistate models with time-varying transitions and joint models for longitudinal and multistate processes to study time-dependent associations of ACR and eGFR with these events. We explore the time-dependent associations of ACR and eGFR with the transitions from baseline state to non-fatal CVD events, from baseline state to all-cause mortality and from non-fatal CVD events to all-cause mortality. The first non-fatal CVD event during the trial is an intermediate event between the baseline state and mortality because its occurrence may affect values of ACR and/or eGFR. We discuss differences in estimation approaches between the two models and compare the estimates of the time-dependent associations obtained and the conclusions reached.
