Increasing SBP and widening PP change were associated with higher odds of rapid kidney function decline compared with stable groups (OR 1.7, 95% CI 1.3-2.4 for SBP; OR 1.4, 95% CI 1.1-1.9 for PP).

Overview

BP trajectory monitoring may flag early renal risk; leaves open whether targeting variability slows decline in preserved eGFR.

Structured PICO

Does increasing systolic blood pressure or widening pulse pressure over time increase the risk of rapid kidney function decline in adults without chronic kidney disease?

P
Population
3,920 participants in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) without chronic kidney disease (eGFR >60 ml/min/1.73 m2) who had ≥2 BP measurements during the first 5 years and eGFR measurements at both year 5 and 10, median age 59.
I
Intervention
Increasing systolic blood pressure (SBP) or widening pulse pressure (PP) over 5 years (top 20% of change distribution)
C
Comparator
Stable SBP or PP over 5 years (middle 21-79% of change distribution)
O
Outcome
Rapid kidney function decline (>30% decrease in eGFR from year 5 to 10)surrogate

Increasing systolic blood pressure and widening pulse pressure over time are associated with accelerated kidney function decline in adults without baseline chronic kidney disease, even at levels below established hypertension thresholds.
