Although obesity has been associated with kidney volume expansion and faster progression in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in this population remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association between BMI and CVD in patients with ADPKD using both institutional clinical data and a national dialysis registry.
This study consisted of two parts. First, a single-center retrospective observational study was conducted in 44 ADPKD patients regularly followed by nephrologists at Rinku General Medical Center between 2010 and 2023. Multivariable logistic regression was used to assess the association between BMI and CVD prevalence. Second, we analyzed data from 3,318 ADPKD patients who newly initiated renal replacement therapy (RRT) between 2019 and 2023 using the Japanese Society for Dialysis Therapy (JSDT) Renal Data Registry. Univariable logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the association between BMI and medical history of CVD prevalence.
In the single-center study, multivariable analysis revealed that lower BMI was independently associated with increased CVD risk (OR: 0.34; 95% CI: 0.13–0.91; P = 0.031). In the registry study, medical history of cerebral infarction was significantly more frequent in the BMI <22 group (OR: 1.79; 95% CI: 1.34–2.39; P < 0.001).
Lower BMI was associated with higher CVD, especially cerebral infarction prevalence in ADPKD patients.
