- We studied 10,489 individuals from the general population with 32 years of follow-up.
- All had a plasma creatinine measurement and a calculated eGFR.
- 1498 had myocardial infarction, 3001 ischemic heart disease and 7573 died.
- Increasing levels of creatinine were associated with these outcomes.
- Low eGFR did not associate consistently with increased risk of either endpoint.
ObjectiveWe tested the hypothesis that moderately elevated plasma creatinine levels and decreased levels of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) are associated with increased risk of myocardial infarction, ischemic heart disease, and early death in the general population.MethodsWe studied 10,489 individuals with a plasma creatinine measurement and calculated eGFR from the Danish general population, of which 1498 developed myocardial infarction, 3001 ischemic heart disease, and 7573 died during 32 years follow-up.ResultsCumulative incidences of myocardial infarction and ischemic heart disease as a function of age increased with increasing levels of creatinine, and survival decreased (log-rank trends: <0.001). The median survival age was 78.7 (95%CI: 78.0-79.2) years for persons with creatinine levels <90th percentile, 78.1 (76.3-79.5) years for 90th-94th percentiles, and 74.8 (72.8-76.7) years for â¥95th percentile. Hazard ratios for myocardial infarction and plasma creatinine levels of 90th-94th percentiles and â¥95th percentile versus <50th percentile were 2.06 (95%CI: 1.67-2.56) and 1.90 (1.56-2.31) adjusted for gender and age, and 1.35 (1.09-1.68) and 1.11 (0.90-1.36) adjusted multifactorially, respectively. Corresponding estimates for creatinine and ischemic heart disease were 1.57 (1.33-1.85) and 1.64 (1.42-1.89) adjusted for gender and age, and 1.16 (0.98-1.37) and 1.11 (0.95-1.29) adjusted multifactorially. Finally, corresponding values for early death were 1.18 (1.06-1.32) and 1.43 (1.30-1.57), and 0.97 (0.87-1.09) and 1.13 (1.02-1.24), respectively. Low eGFR did not associate consistently with increased risk of these endpoints.ConclusionIn the general population, moderately elevated plasma creatinine was associated with increased risk of myocardial infarction, ischemic heart disease, and early death, while low eGFR was not.
