Fatty acid-binding protein-3 and renal function decline in patients with chronic coronary syndrome
CLINICAL CARDIOLOGY(2024)
Abstract
Background: Renal dysfunction is common in patients with coronary artery disease. Due to the shared vascular pathogenesis between the two conditions, novel biomarkers such as the fatty acid-binding protein-3 (FABP-3) have been proposed for diagnosis and prognosis prediction. This multicentre prospective cohort study investigates the association between FABP-3 and renal dysfunction.Hypothesis: We hypothesized that higher FABP-3 levels are correlated to worse renal outcome.Methods: Patients with chronic coronary syndrome were classified into three groups based on the initial serum FABP-3 levels. The Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation was used to estimate the patient's renal function. Renal events were defined as >25% and >50% decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Cox multivariable regression was employed to delineate the correlation between FABP-3 and renal dysfunction.Results: A total of 1606 subjects were included. During a mean follow-up of 35.9 months, there were 239 patients with eGFR >25% reduction and 60 patients with >50% reduction. In the Kaplan-Meier survival curve and log-rank test, increased levels of FABP-3 were significantly correlated with eGFR >25% reduction (p < .001) and >50% reduction (p < .001). Multivariate Cox regression model revealed that subjects with higher FABP-3 exhibited a greater risk of eGFR >25% reduction (Group 2: hazard ratio [HR] = 2.328, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.521-3.562, p < .001; Group 3: HR = 3.054, 95% CI = 1.952-4.776, p < .001) and >50% reduction (Group 3: HR = 4.838, 95% CI = 1.722-13.591, p = .003).Conclusions: Serum FABP-3 may serve as a novel biomarker to predict eGFR decline in patients with chronic coronary syndrome.
