Background: Baseline risk variables and visit-to-visit variability (VV) of systolic blood pressure (SBP) , HbA1c, serum creatinine, and uric acid (UA) are potential risk markers of kidney function decline in type 1 diabetes.

Methods: Post-hoc analysis of the PERL study (NCT02017171) - a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial investigating allopurinol’s effect on iohexol-derived glomerular filtration rate (iGFR) in type 1 diabetes with elevated UA. Primary outcome was iGFR change over three years. Linear regression with backwards selection of baseline clinical variables was performed to identify an optimized model forecasting iGFR change. VV of SBP, HbA1c, serum creatinine, and UA were calculated as standard deviations of the residuals in individual linear regression models (LV) and coefficients of variation (CV) using all available measurements in the run-in period; thereafter assessed by linear regression, with iGFR change as the dependent variable. Adjustment included sex, baseline age, diabetes duration, BMI, HbA1c, SBP, kidney function (iGFR or eGFR, as appropriate) , urine albumin excretion rate (UAER) , smoking, and renin-angiotensin system inhibitor use.

Results: 422 participants completed the trial, 4were included in this analysis. In the optimized baseline risk marker model, race other (including but not limited to Hawaiian/Pacific Islander) than White, Black, or Asian, higher HbA1c, UAER, and heart rate, and lower iGFR were associated with faster iGFR decline; Hispanic/Latino ethnicity was not. Assessing VV, higher LV and CV of SBP was associated with faster iGFR decline (adjusted LV β: -0.79, p=0.01; CV β: -0.79, p=0.04) ; VVs of HbA1c, creatinine, and UA were not.

Conclusions: We identified several risk markers of faster iGFR decline in a high-risk population of individuals with type 1 diabetes. In addition to previously described associations, higher SBP VV was a risk marker for faster kidney function decline.
