- Abstract
- Background/Aims: No studies have examined the association among serum hepcidin, iron indices, or anemia status based on the kidney function of non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Methods: We reviewed data of 2238 patients from a large-scale multicenter prospective Korean study (2011-2016) and excluded 198 patients with missing data regarding serum hepcidin, hemoglobin, transferrin saturation (TSAT), ferritin, and usage of erythropoiesisstimulating agents (ESA) or supplemental iron and 363 patients using ESA or supplemental iron. Finally, 1677 patients were included. Results: The mean patient age was 53.5 years, and 65.4% were men. TSAT and serum hepcidin were significantly associated with anemia status, whereas serum ferritin was not, regardless of anemia severity. For patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) = 45 mL/min/1.73 m(2), a 10% increase of TSAT was associated with hemoglobin < 13 g/dL (odds ratio [OR], 0.628; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.515-0.765; P<0.001) and hemoglobin < 11.5 g/dL (OR, 0.672; 95% CI, 0.476-0.950; P=0.024), whereas a 10-ng/mL increase of serum hepcidin was associated with hemoglobin < 11.5 g/dL (OR, 1.379; 95% CI, 1.173-1.620; P<0.001) and hemoglobin < 10.0 g/dL (OR, 1.360; 95% CI, 1.115-1.659; P=0.002) for patients with eGFR < 45 mL/min/1.73 m(2) according to multivariate logistic analysis. Conclusions: TSAT was associated with less severe anemia in early CKD patients. Serum hepcidin was associated with more severe anemia in advanced CKD patients.
