RESUMEN
AIMS: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is prevalent in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to investigate risk factors for CKD progression across the kidney disease-Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO)categories in a Middle Eastern population beyond hyperglycemia as emphasized by KDIGO guidelines which classifying CKD by cause and severity. METHODS: This cross-sectional study targeted 1603 patients with T2DM. Risk factors for CKD progression were determined using odds ratios (ORs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS: Overall, 35.5 %, 31.7 %, and 32.8 % of patients were classified as low-risk, moderate-risk, and high-/very high-/highest-risk, respectively. Several factors were associated with high/very high/highest risk categorization, including being aged >45 years (OR: 1.85, 95 % CI: 1.36-2.49; P < 0.001), male gender (OR: 1.87, 95 % CI: 1.38-2.54; P < 0.001), hypertension (OR: 3.66, 95 % CI: 2.32-5.78; P < 0.001), and T2DM duration of ≥15 years (OR: 3.2, 95 % CI: 2.27-4.5; P < 0.001). Patients with more concurrent risk factors were notably represented in the high/very high/highest risk category. CONCLUSIONS: Male patients, older patients, and those with comorbid hypertension, longstanding T2DM, and additional concurrent risk factors have a significantly higher risk of advanced CKD. Such findings should be considered when planning management approaches for patients with CKD.

AIMS: This study compared the 2009 versus 2021 chronic kidney disease (CKD) Epidemiological Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equations to calculate estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) among Jordanian patients with T2DM to assess their agreement and impact on CKD staging. METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 2382 adult Jordanian patients with T2DM. The 2009 and 2021 CKD-EPI equations were used to calculate eGFR. Patients were reclassified according to kidney disease-Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) categories. Agreement between the equations was assessed using Bland-Altman plots and Lin's concordance correlation. RESULTS: The 2021 equation significantly increased eGFR by a median of 2.1 mL/min/1.73 m2 (interquartile range: 0.6-3.6 mL/min/1.73 m2). However, there was significant agreement between equations (Kappa: 0.99; 95% confidence interval: 0.95-1.00), independent of age, sex, and the presence of hypertension. In total, 202 patients (8.5%) were reclassified to higher KDIGO categories using the 2021 equation, with category G3 being most affected. The overall prevalence of patients in the high to highest risk categories decreased (28.0% vs. 26.5%). CONCLUSIONS: Although there was significant agreement with the 2009 equation, the 2021 equation increased eGFR and resulted in the reclassification of a subset of subjects according to KDIGO criteria. The uncertain impact of reducing high-risk category patients raises concerns about potential delays in referral and intervention, while holding the potential to enhance high-risk patient categorization, thus alleviating healthcare burden.
