Abstract

ABSTRACT: Aim: To explore the relationship between long-term variabilities in different blood pressure variables and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes. Design: A retrospective study. Methods: This study included 3050 patients with type 2 diabetes whose metabolic parameters were regularly checked. Intrapersonal means and standard deviations (SDs) of all recorded systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), and pulse pressure (PP) measurements were calculated. Subjects were divided into four groups: Q1 (SBP-Mean < 130, SBP-SD < 11.06); Q2 (SBP-Mean < 130, SBP-SD ≥ 11.06); Q3 (SBP-Mean ≥ 130, SBP-SD < 11.06); Q4 (SBP-Mean ≥ 130, SBP-SD ≥ 11.06). Similarly, based on whether the PP-Mean was higher or lower than 80 mmHg (average PP-Mean) and the PP-SD was higher or lower than 6.48 mmHg (average PP-SD), the involved patients were redivided into Q1'~ Q4' groups. Results: Adjusted for age, sex and diabetes duration, results revealed that the SBP-Mean, SBP-SD, PP-Mean and PP-SD were risk factors for DKD. Meanwhile, patients in the Q4 group had the highest DKD prevalence (HR = 1.976, p < .001), while Q1 group had the lowest. In addition, patients in the Q3 group (HR = 1.614, P < .001) had a higher risk of DKD than those in the Q2 group (HR = 1.408, P < .001). After re-stratification by PP-Mean and PP-SD, patients in the Q4' group had the highest risk of DKD (HR = 1.370, p < .001), while those in the Q1' group had the lowest risk. Patients in the Q3' group (HR = 1.266, p < .001) had a higher risk of DKD than those in the Q2' group (HR = 1.212, p < .001).
