RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: Investigate the outcomes of women with HIV (WWH) with low-level viremia (LLV). DESIGN: The prevalence of LLV and potential clinical sequelae, such as virologic failure and non-AIDS comorbidity (NACM) development, are poorly characterized among WWH. METHODS: We analyzed data from the Women's Interagency HIV Study among WWH enrolled from 2003 to 2020 who reported antiretroviral therapy use at least 1âyear followed by an HIV-1 viral load less than 200âcopies/ml. Consecutive viral load measurements from four semi-annual visits were used to categorize women at baseline as having: virologic suppression (all viral load undetectable), intermittent LLV (iLLV; nonconsecutive detectable viral load up to 199âcopies/ml), persistent LLV (pLLV; at least two consecutive detectable viral load up to 199âcopies/ml), or virologic failure (any viral load ≥200âcopies/ml). Adjusted hazard ratios quantified the association of virologic category with time to incident virologic failure and multimorbidity (≥2 of 5 NACM) over 5-year follow-up. RESULTS: Of 1598 WWH, baseline median age was 47âyears, 64% were Black, 21% Hispanic, and median CD4 + cell count was 621âcells/µl. After excluding 275 women (17%) who had virologic failure at baseline, 58, 19, and 6% were categorized as having virologic suppression, iLLV, and pLLV, respectively. Compared with WWH with virologic suppression, the adjusted hazard ratio [aHR; 95% confidence interval (CI)] for incident virologic failure was 1.88 (1.44-2.46) and 2.51 (1.66-3.79) for iLLV and pLLV, respectively; and the aHR for incident multimorbidity was 0.81 (0.54-1.21) and 1.54 (0.88-2.71) for iLLV and pLLV, respectively. CONCLUSION: Women with iLLV and pLLV had an increased risk of virologic failure. Women with pLLV had a trend towards increased multimorbidity risk.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Gut dysbiosis has been linked with both HIV infection and diabetes, but its interplay with metabolic and inflammatory responses in diabetes, particularly in the context of HIV infection, remains unclear. METHODS: We first conducted a cross-sectional association analysis to characterize the gut microbial, circulating metabolite, and immune/inflammatory protein features associated with diabetes in up to 493 women (~ 146 with prevalent diabetes with 69.9% HIV +) of the Women's Interagency HIV Study. Prospective analyses were then conducted to determine associations of identified metabolites with incident diabetes over 12 years of follow-up in 694 participants (391 women from WIHS and 303 men from the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study; 166 incident cases were recorded) with and without HIV infection. Mediation analyses were conducted to explore whether gut bacteria-diabetes associations are explained by altered metabolites and proteins. RESULTS: Seven gut bacterial genera were identified to be associated with diabetes (FDR-q < 0.1), with positive associations for Shigella, Escherichia, Megasphaera, and Lactobacillus, and inverse associations for Adlercreutzia, Ruminococcus, and Intestinibacter. Importantly, the associations of most species, especially Adlercreutzia and Ruminococcus, were largely independent of antidiabetic medications use. Meanwhile, 18 proteins and 76 metabolites, including 3 microbially derived metabolites (trimethylamine N-oxide, phenylacetylglutamine (PAGln), imidazolepropionic acid (IMP)), 50 lipids (e.g., diradylglycerols (DGs) and triradylglycerols (TGs)) and 23 non-lipid metabolites, were associated with diabetes (FDR-q < 0.1), with the majority showing positive associations and more than half of them (59/76) associated with incident diabetes. In mediation analyses, several proteins, especially interleukin-18 receptor 1 and osteoprotegerin, IMP and PAGln partially mediate the observed bacterial genera-diabetes associations, particularly for those of Adlercreutzia and Escherichia. Many diabetes-associated metabolites and proteins were altered in HIV, but no effect modification on their associations with diabetes was observed by HIV. CONCLUSION: Among individuals with and without HIV, multiple gut bacterial genera, blood metabolites, and proinflammatory proteins were associated with diabetes. The observed mediated effects by metabolites and proteins in genera-diabetes associations highlighted the potential involvement of inflammatory and metabolic perturbations in the link between gut dysbiosis and diabetes in the context of HIV infection.

INTRODUCTION: Patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) have an increased prevalence and incidence of intermediate-stage age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Several elevated plasma inflammatory biomarkers are associated with increased incidence of intermediate-stage AMD in this population. We evaluated the association between AMD risk alleles and plasma inflammatory biomarker levels in persons with AIDS. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cryopreserved plasma specimens of 229 non-Hispanic White and 252 non-Hispanic blacks from the Longitudinal Study of the Ocular Complications of AIDS cohort were assayed for plasma levels of soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor (sTNFR) 2, interleukin (IL)-18, C × 3motif chemokine ligand 1 (CX3CL1), C-reactive protein (CRP), and soluble CD14 (sCD14). Genotyping included AMD-associated variants rs10801553 and rs800292 for complement factor H (CFH) rs9332739 and rs547154 for complement factor 2 (C2), rs2230199 for C3, rs2285714 for CFI, and rs3732379 and rs3732378 for C × 3motif chemokine receptor 1 (CX3CR1). RESULTS: In Whites, AMD low-risk CX3CR1 variants (V249I and T280M) were associated with reduced plasma levels of IL-18. In Blacks, AMD low-risk C3 R102G and low-risk CX3CR1 T280M variants were associated with reduced CRP levels. CONCLUSIONS: Genetic variants in AMD-associated immune genes may influence AMD-associated systemic plasma inflammatory biomarker levels in patients with AIDS.
RESUMO
Purpose: To evaluate associations of plasma levels of inflammatory biomarkers with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and cataract in persons with AIDS. Design: Nested case-control study (analysis 1) and nested cohort study (analysis 2). Participants: Analysis 1: persons with AIDS and incident intermediate-stage AMD (n = 26) and controls without AMD matched for age, race/ethnicity, and gender (n = 49) from The Longitudinal Study of Ocular Complications of AIDS. Analysis 2: 475 persons from LSOCA with baseline plasma biomarker levels followed prospectively for cataract. Methods: In both analyses, cryopreserved plasma specimens obtained at baseline were assayed for monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 (CC motif chemokine ligand [CCL] 2), macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1ß (CCL4), soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor (sTNFR) 2, interleukin (IL)-18, and fractalkine (CX3 motif chemokine ligand 1 [CX3CL1]). Main Outcome Measures: Analysis 1: mean difference (cases - controls) in plasma biomarker levels. Analysis 2: incident cataract. Results: After adjusting for plasma human immunodeficiency virus RNA level, CD4+ T-cell count, and smoking, elevated baseline plasma levels of sTNFR2 and IL-18 (mean differences [cases - controls] 0.11 log10[pg/mL]; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.01-0.20; P = 0.024 and 0.13 log10[pg/mL]; 95% CI, 0.01-0.24; P = 0.037, respectively) each were associated with incident AMD. In a competing risk (with mortality) analysis, elevated baseline standardized log10 plasma levels of MCP-1, sTNFR2, IL-18, and fractalkine each were associated with a decreased cataract risk. Conclusions: When combined with previous data suggesting that AMD is associated with elevated plasma levels of C-reactive protein, soluble CD14, and possibly IL-6, the association of elevated plasma levels of sTNFR2 and IL-18 with incident AMD, but not with incident cataract, suggests that innate immune system activation, and possibly NLRP3 inflammasome activation, may play a role in the pathogenesis of AMD in this population.

RESUMO
BACKGROUND: HIV is associated with alterations in androgen hormone levels and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) in women. Higher SHBG has been associated with a lower risk of diabetes in the general population, but the contribution of HIV, androgen hormones, SHBG, and menopausal phase to diabetes is unclear. METHODS: From April 2003 through February 2020, 896 women with HIV (WWH) and 343 women without HIV (WWOH) from the Women's Interagency HIV Study with morning total testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), and SHBG levels were followed to assess for incident diabetes. Parametric regression models were used with age as the time scale and relative times (RT) as the measure of association of hormone level and menopausal phase with incident diabetes. Analyses incorporated time-dependent androgen hormone, SHBG levels, and menopausal phase and were adjusted for race/ethnicity, enrollment year, smoking status, BMI, hepatitis C virus status, and HIV-related factors. RESULTS: In total, 128 (14%) WWH and 47 (14%) WWOH developed diabetes. In WWH, a doubling of SHBG and DHEAS were associated with a 7% (RT = 1.07 [95% CI: 0.82 to 1.40] and 15% (RT = 1.15 [95% CI: 0.95 to 1.39]) longer time to diabetes, respectively; in WWOH, a doubling of SHBG and DHEAS were associated with 84% (RT = 1.84 [95% CI: 0.89 to 3.82]) and 41% (RT= 1.41 [95% CI: 0.82 to 2.44]) longer times to diabetes. Total testosterone was not associated. In WWH, later menopausal phase was associated with shorter times to diabetes. CONCLUSIONS: Despite alterations in androgen hormone and SHBG levels in HIV, regardless of HIV status, higher SHBG and DHEAS were associated with nonstatistically significant slower progression to diabetes. The menopausal transition may be a better hormonal indicator of diabetes risk in WWH.

BACKGROUND: Polypharmacy, using five or more medications, may increase the risk of nonadherence to prescribed treatment. We aimed to identify the interrelationship between trajectories of adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART) and polypharmacy. METHODS: We included women with HIV (aged ≥ 18) enrolled in the Women's Interagency HIV Study in the United States from 2014 to 2019. We used group-based trajectory modeling (GBTM) to identify trajectories of adherence to ART and polypharmacy and the dual GBTM to identify the interrelationship between adherence and polypharmacy. RESULTS: Overall, 1,538 were eligible (median age of 49 years). GBTM analysis revealed five latent trajectories of adherence with 42% of women grouped in the consistently moderate trajectory. GBTM identified four polypharmacy trajectories with 45% categorized in the consistently low group. CONCLUSIONS: The joint model did not reveal any interrelationship between ART adherence and polypharmacy trajectories. Future research should consider examining the interrelationship between both variables using objective measures of adherence.

BACKGROUND: Women with HIV (WHIV) in the United States face many challenges with adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART), and suboptimal adherence often leads to virologic failure. This study aimed to determine the association between ART adherence trajectories and the risk of virologic failure. METHODS: We included WHIV (aged 18 years or older) enrolled in the Women's Interagency HIV Study in the United States from April 2014 to September 2019 who had at least 2 consecutive measurements of HIV RNA and ≥3 measurements of self-reported adherence. Group-based trajectory modeling was used to identify adherence trajectories. Cox proportional hazard ratios were used to measure the association. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Virologic failure was defined as HIV RNA ≥200 copies/mL at 2 consecutive visits. RESULTS: We included 1437 WHIV (median age 49 years). Of all women, 173 (12.0%) experienced virologic failure. Four adherence trajectories were identified, namely "consistently high" (26.3%), "moderate increasing" (9.5%), "moderate decreasing" (30.6%), and "consistently low" (33.5%). Women in the consistently low adherence group consumed alcohol and experienced depression more than other groups. Compared with the "consistently high" trajectory, the risk of virologic failure was higher among women with "consistently low" [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 2.8; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.6 to 4.9; P < 0.001] and "moderate decreasing" adherence trajectories (aHR 1.8; 95% CI: 1.0 to 3.2; P = 0.04), but it was similar to those with "moderate increasing" adherence trajectory (aHR 1.0; 95% CI: 0.4 to 2.5; P = 0.94). CONCLUSIONS: Adherence to ART remains a challenge among WHIV. Multilevel behavioral interventions to address poor adherence, alcohol consumption, and depression are needed.

RESUMO
RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE: Anemia and statural growth impairment are both prevalent in children with nonglomerular chronic kidney disease (CKD) and are associated with poor quality of life and increased morbidity and mortality. However, to date no longitudinal studies have demonstrated a relationship between anemia and statural growth in this population. STUDY DESIGN: The CKD in Children (CKiD) study is a multicenter prospective cohort study with over 15 years of follow-up observation. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS: CKiD participants younger than 22 years with nonglomerular CKD who had not reached final adult height. EXPOSURE: Age-, sex-, and race-specific hemoglobin z score. OUTCOME: Age- and sex-specific height z score. ANALYTICAL APPROACH: The relationship between hemoglobin and height was quantified using (1) multivariable repeated measures paired person-visit analysis, and (2) multivariable repeated measures linear mixed model analysis. Both models were adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, estimated glomerular filtration rate, acidosis, and medication use. RESULTS: Overall, 67% of the 510 participants studied had declining hemoglobin z score trajectories over the follow-up period, which included 1,763 person-visits. Compared with average hemoglobin z scores of≥0, average hemoglobin z scores of less than -1.0 were independently associated with significant growth impairment at the subsequent study visit, with height z score decline ranging from 0.24 to 0.35. Importantly, in 50% of cases hemoglobin z scores of less than -1.0 corresponded to hemoglobin values higher than those used as cutoffs defining anemia in the KDIGO clinical practice guideline for anemia in CKD. When stratified by age, the magnitude of the association peaked in participants aged 9 years. In line with paired-visit analyses, our mixed model analysis demonstrated that in participants with baseline hemoglobin z score less than -1.0, a hemoglobin z score decline over the follow-up period was associated with a statistically significant concurrent decrease in height z score. LIMITATIONS: Limited ability to infer causality. CONCLUSIONS: Hemoglobin decline is associated with growth impairment over time in children with mild to moderate nonglomerular CKD, even before hemoglobin levels reach the cutoffs that are currently used to define anemia in this population.

BACKGROUND: Obesity is prevalent among children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with cardiovascular disease and reduced quality of life. Its relationship with pediatric CKD progression has not been described. METHODS: We evaluated relationships between both body mass index (BMI) category (normal, overweight, obese) and BMI z-score (BMIz) change on CKD progression among participants of the Chronic Kidney Disease in Children study. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and multivariable parametric failure time models depict the association of baseline BMI category on time to kidney replacement therapy (KRT). Additionally, the annualized percentage change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was modeled against concurrent change in BMIz using multivariable linear regression with generalized estimating equations which allowed for quantification of the effect of BMIz change on annualized eGFR change. RESULTS: Participants had median age of 10.9 years [IQR: 6.5, 14.6], median eGFR of 50 ml/1.73 m2 [IQR: 37, 64] and 63% were male. 160 (27%) of 600 children with non-glomerular and 77 (31%) of 247 children with glomerular CKD progressed to KRT over a median of 5 years [IQR: 2, 8]. Times to KRT were not significantly associated with baseline BMI category. Children with non-glomerular CKD who were obese experienced significant improvement in eGFR (+ 0.62%; 95% CI: + 0.17%, + 1.08%) for every 0.1 standard deviation concurrent decrease in BMI. In participants with glomerular CKD who were obese, BMIz change was not significantly associated with annualized eGFR change. CONCLUSION: Obesity may represent a target of intervention to improve kidney function in children with non-glomerular CKD.

BACKGROUND: Elevated serum uric acid concentration is a risk factor for CKD progression. Its change over time and association with CKD etiology and concomitant changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in children and adolescents are unknown. METHODS: Longitudinal study of 153 children/adolescents with glomerular (G) and 540 with non-glomerular (NG) etiology from the CKD in Children (CKiD) study. Baseline serum uric acid, change in uric acid and eGFR over time, CKD etiology, and comorbidities were monitored. Adjusted linear mixed-effects regression models quantified the relationship between within-person changes in uric acid and concurrent within-person changes in eGFR. RESULTS: Participants with stable uric acid over follow-up had CKD progression which became worse for increased baseline uric acid (average annual percentage changes in eGFR were - 1.4%, - 7.7%, and - 14.7% in those with G CKD with baseline uric acid < 5.5 mg/dL, 5.5 - 7.5 mg/dL, and > 7.5 mg/dL, respectively; these changes were - 1.4%, - 4.1%, and - 8.6% in NG CKD). Each 1 mg/dL increase in uric acid over follow-up was independently associated with significant concomitant eGFR decreases of - 5.7% (95%CI - 8.4 to - 3.0%) (G) and - 5.1% (95%CI - 6.3 to - 4.0%) (NG) for those with baseline uric acid < 5.5 mg/dL and - 4.3% (95%CI - 6.8 to - 1.6%) (G) and - 3.3% (95%CI - 4.1 to - 2.6%) (NG) with baseline uric acid between 5.5 and 7.5 mg/dL. CONCLUSIONS: Higher uric acid levels and increases in uric acid over time are risk factors for more severe progression of CKD in children and adolescents. A higher resolution version of the Graphical abstract is available as Supplementary information.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between plasma biomarkers of systemic inflammation and incident age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in persons with the AIDS. DESIGN: Case-control study. METHODS: Participants with incident intermediate-stage AMD (Nâ=â26) in the Longitudinal Study of the Ocular Complications of AIDS (LSOCA) and controls (Nâ=â60) without AMD. Cryopreserved baseline plasma specimens were assayed for biomarkers of inflammation, including high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL)-6, interferon-γ inducible protein (IP)-10, soluble CD14 (sCD14), soluble CD163 (sCD163), and intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP). RESULTS: After adjustment for age, sex, and race/ethnicity, baseline meanâ±âstandard deviation (SD) log10(mg/ml) plasma levels of CRP (0.52â±â0.60 vs. 0.20â±â0.43; Pâ=â0.01) and meanâ±âSD log10(pg/ml) plasma levels of sCD14 (6.31â±â0.11 vs. 6.23â±â0.14; Pâ=â0.008) were significantly higher among cases (incident AMD) than among controls (no AMD). There was a suggestion that meanâ±âSD baseline log10(pg/ml) plasma IL-6 levels (0.24â±â0.33 vs. 0.11â±â0.29; Pâ=â0.10) might be higher among cases than controls. In a separate analysis of 548 participants in LSOCA, elevated baseline levels of plasma inflammatory biomarkers were associated with a greater risk of mortality but not with an increased risk of incident cataract. CONCLUSION: These data suggest that systemic inflammatory biomarkers are associated with incident AMD but not incident cataract in persons with AIDS, and that systemic inflammation may play a role in the pathogenesis of AMD.

This study investigated whether the predictive ability of the Finnish Diabetes Risk Score (FINDRISC) can be improved among people with HIV by adding a marker of insulin resistance. In this longitudinal analysis of the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study and the Women's Interagency HIV Study, HIV-positive and HIV-negative participants without prevalent diabetes were included. FINDRISC score and the Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) were calculated at baseline. Cox proportional hazards models were used to examine associations between baseline risk scores and time to incident diabetes (first self-report of diabetes medication use). Model discrimination (Uno's c-statistic) and calibration (observed vs. cumulative probability of diabetes) were assessed for FINDRISC, HOMA-IR, and combined FINDRISC and HOMA-IR. Overall, 2,527 men (1,299 HIV-positive and 1,228 HIV-negative, median age = 44) and 2,446 women (1,841 HIV-positive and 605 HIV-negative, median age = 41) were included. Over 47,040 person-years of follow-up, diabetes incidence rates per 1,000 person-years were 9.5 in HIV-positive men, 7.1 in HIV-negative men, 14.5 in HIV-positive women, and 15.1 in HIV-negative women. FINDRISC discrimination (HIV-positive men c = 0.64 [0.55, 0.74], HIV-negative men c = 0.74 [0.68, 0.79], HIV-positive women c = 0.68 [0.64, 0.71], and HIV-negative women c = 0.73 [0.66, 0.79]) was significantly better than that of HOMA-IR. FINDRISC was better calibrated than HOMA-IR in each of the four groups. Adding HOMA-IR did not improve FINDRISC discrimination/calibration. Diabetes risk prediction with FINDRISC was suboptimal in men and women with HIV, and its performance was not improved with addition of HOMA-IR. The optimal method for identifying people living with HIV at-risk for diabetes is yet to be identified.

BACKGROUND: Longitudinal changes in body mass index (BMI) among overweight and obese children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are not well characterized. We studied longitudinal trajectories and correlates of these trajectories, as results may identify opportunities to optimize health outcomes. METHODS: Longitudinal changes in age-sex-specific BMI z-scores over 1851 person-years of follow-up were assessed in 524 participants of the Chronic Kidney Disease in Children Study. A total of 353 participants were categorized as normal (BMI > 5th to < 85th percentile), 56 overweight (BMI ≥ 85th to 95th percentile) and 115 obese (BMI ≥ 95th percentile) based on the average of three BMI measurements during the first year of follow-up. Studied covariates included age, sex, race, CKD etiology, corticosteroid usage, household income, and maternal education. RESULTS: In unadjusted analysis, BMI z-scores decreased over time in elevated BMI groups (overweight: mean = - 0.06 standard deviations (SD) per year, 95% CI: - 0.11, - 0.01; obese: mean = - 0.04 SD per year, 95% CI: - 0.07, - 0.01). Among obese children, only age was associated with change in BMI z-score; children < 6 years had a mean decrease of 0.19 SD during follow-up (95% CI: - 0.30, - 0.09). Socioeconomic factors were not associated with change in BMI. CONCLUSION: Overweight and obese children with CKD demonstrated a significant annual decline in BMI, though the absolute change was modest. Among obese children, only age < 6 years was associated with significant decline in BMI. Persistence of elevated BMI in older children and adolescents with CKD underscores the need for early prevention and effective intervention.

OBJECTIVES: Antiretroviral therapy (ART) use is associated with disrupted lipid and glucose metabolism in people with HIV infection. We aimed to identify plasma lipid species associated with risk of diabetes in the context of HIV infection. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: We profiled 211 plasma lipid species in 491 HIV-infected and 203 HIV-uninfected participants aged 35 to 55 years from the Women's Interagency HIV Study and the Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study. Cox proportional hazards model was used to examine associations between baseline lipid species and incident diabetes (166 diabetes cases were identified during a median follow-up of 12.6 years). RESULTS: We identified 11 lipid species, representing independent signals for 8 lipid classes/subclasses, associated with risk of diabetes (Pâ <â 0.05 after FDR correction). After adjustment for multiple covariates, cholesteryl ester (CE) (22:4), lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) (18:2), phosphatidylcholine (PC) (36:4), phosphatidylcholine plasmalogen (34:3), and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) (38:2) were associated with decreased risk of diabetes (HRsâ =â 0.70 to 0.82 per SD increment), while diacylglycerol (32:0), LPC (14:0), PC (38:3), PE (36:1), and triacylglycerol (50:1) were associated with increased risk of diabetes (HRsâ =â 1.26 to 1.56 per SD increment). HIV serostatus did not modify any lipid-diabetes associations; however, most of these lipid species were positively associated with HIV and/or ART use, including 3 diabetes-decreased ( CE [22:4], LPC [18:2], PE [38:2]) and all 5 diabetes-increased lipid species. CONCLUSIONS: This study identified multiple plasma lipid species associated with incident diabetes. Regardless of the directions of their associations with diabetes, most diabetes-associated lipid species were elevated in ART-treated people with HIV infection. This suggests a complex role of lipids in the link between ART and diabetes in HIV infection.

RATIONALE & OBJECTIVE: Traditional and nontraditional cardiovascular disease risk factors are highly prevalent in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We examined the longitudinal association of adiposity with cardiac damage among children with CKD and explored whether this association was modified by sex. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective cohort study. SETTING & PARTICIPANTS: Children with mild-to-moderate CKD enrolled in the Chronic Kidney Disease in Children (CKiD) Study at 49 pediatric nephrology centers across North America. EXPOSURE: Age- and sex-specific body mass index (BMI) z score. OUTCOME: Age- and sex-specific left ventricular mass index (LVMI) z score and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). ANALYTICAL APPROACH: Longitudinal analyses using mixed-effects models to estimate sex-specific associations of BMI z scores with LVMI z score and with LVH, accounting for repeated measurements over time. RESULTS: Among 725 children with 2,829 person-years of follow-up, median age was 11.0 years and median estimated glomerular filtration rate was 52.6mL/min/1.73m2. Nearly one-third of both boys and girls were overweight or obese, median LVMI z score was 0.18 (IQR: -0.67, 1.08), and 11% had LVH. Greater BMI z scores were independently associated with greater LVMI z scores and greater odds of LVH. For each 1-unit higher BMI z score, LVMI z score was 0.24 (95% CI, 0.17-0.31) higher in boys and 0.38 (95% CI, 0.29-0.47) higher in girls (Pinteraction = 0.01). For each 1-unit higher BMI z score, the odds of LVH was 1.5-fold (95% CI, 1.1-2.1) higher in boys and 3.1-fold (95% CI, 1.8-4.4) higher in girls (Pinteraction = 0.005). LIMITATIONS: Not all children had repeated measurements. LVH is a surrogate and not a hard cardiac outcome. The observational design limits causal inference. CONCLUSIONS: In children, adiposity is independently associated with the markers of cardiac damage, LVMI z score and LVH. This association is stronger among girls than boys. Pediatric overweight and obesity may therefore have a substantial impact on cardiovascular risk among children with CKD.

BACKGROUND: The relationship between muscle strength and chronic kidney disease (CKD) in children is unknown. This study aims to quantify the association between grip strength (GS) and kidney function and to explore factors associated with grip strength in children and adolescents with CKD. METHODS: We included 411 children (699 GS assessments) of the Chronic Kidney Disease in Children (CKiD) study. They were matched by age, sex, and height to a healthy control from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey to quantify the relationship between GS and CKD. Linear mixed models were used to identify factors associated with GS among CKD patients. RESULTS: Median GS z-score was - 0.72 (IQR - 1.39, 0.11) among CKD patients with CKD stages 2 through 5 having significantly lower GS than CKD stage 1. Compared with healthy controls, CKiD participants had a decreased GS z-score (- 0.53 SD lower, 95% CI - 0.67 to - 0.39) independent of race/ethnicity and body mass index. Factors associated with reduced GS included longer duration of CKD, pre-pubertal status, delayed puberty, neuropsychiatric comorbidities, need of feeding support, need for alkali therapy, and hemoglobin level. Decreased GS was also associated with both a lower frequency and intensity of physical activity. CONCLUSIONS: CKD is associated with impaired muscle strength in children independent of growth retardation and BMI. Exposure to CKD for a prolonged time is associated with impaired muscle strength. Potential mediators of the impact of CKD on muscle strength include growth retardation, acidosis, poor nutritional status, and low physical activity. Additional studies are needed to assess the efficacy of interventions targeted at these risk factors.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the performance of an adapted American Diabetes Association (ADA) risk score and the concise Finnish Diabetes Risk Score (FINRISC) for predicting type 2 diabetes development in women with and at risk of HIV infection. DESIGN: Longitudinal analysis of the Women's Interagency HIV Study. METHODS: The women's Interagency HIV Study is an ongoing prospective cohort study of women with and at risk for HIV infection. Women without prevalent diabetes and 3-year data on fasting blood glucose, hemoglobin A1c, self-reported diabetes medication use, and self-reported diabetes were included. ADA and FINRISC scores were computed at baseline and their ability to predict diabetes development within 3 years was assessed [sensitivity, specificity and area under the receiver operating characteristics (AUROC) curve]. RESULTS: A total of 1111 HIV-positive (median age 41, 60% African American) and 454 HIV-negative women (median age 38, 63% African-American) were included. ADA sensitivity did not differ between HIV-positive (77%) and HIV-negative women (81%), while specificity was better in HIV-negative women (42 vs. 49%, Pâ=â0.006). Overall ADA discrimination was suboptimal in both HIV-positive [AUROCâ=â0.64 (95% CI: 0.58, 0.70)] and HIV-negative women [AUROCâ=â0.67 (95% CI: 0.57, 0.77)]. FINRISC sensitivity and specificity did not differ between HIV-positive (72 and 49%, respectively) and HIV-negative women (86 and 52%, respectively). Overall FINRISC discrimination was suboptimal in HIV-positive [AUROCâ=â0.68 (95% CI: 0.62, 0.75)] and HIV-negative women [AUROCâ=â0.78 (95% CI: 0.66, 0.90)]. CONCLUSION: Model performance was suboptimal in women with and at risk of HIV, while greater misclassification was generally observed among HIV-positive women. HIV-specific risk factors known to contribute to diabetes risk should be explored in these models.
