- aggregation title "Aortic stiffness and central wave reflections predict outcome in renal transplant recipients".
- aggregation abstract "Although renal transplantation improves survival, cardiovascular morbidity and mortality remain significantly elevated compared with nonrenal populations. The negative impact of traditional, uremia-related, and transplantation-related risk factors in this process remains, however, largely unexplored. Surrogate markers such as aortic stiffness and central wave reflections may lead to more accurate cardiovascular risk stratification, but outcome data in renal transplant recipients are scarce. We aimed to establish the prognostic significance of these markers for fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events in renal transplant recipients. Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity, central augmentation pressure, and central augmentation index were measured in a cohort of 512 renal transplant recipients using the SphygmoCor system. After a mean follow-up of 5 years, 20 fatal and 75 nonfatal cardiovascular events were recorded. Using receiver operating characteristic curves, the area under the curve for predicting cardiovascular events was 0.718 (95% CI 0.659-0.776) for pulse wave velocity, 0.670 (95% CI 0.604-0.736) for central augmentation pressure, and 0.595 (95% CI 0.529-0.660) for central augmentation index. When we accounted for age, gender, and C-reactive protein in Cox-regression analysis, pulse wave velocity (hazard ratio: 1.349 per 1 SD increase; 95% CI 1.104-1.649; P = 0.003) and central augmentation pressure (hazard ratio: 1.487 per 1 SD increase; 95% CI 1.219-1.814; P < 0.001) remained independent predictors of outcome. Aortic stiffness and increased wave reflections are independent predictors of cardiovascular events in renal transplant recipients. As single parameter of wave reflection, central augmentation pressure was better than central augmentation index. Combined measurement of pulse wave velocity and central augmentation pressure may contribute to an accurate cardiovascular risk estimation in this heterogeneous population.".
