- Abstract
Reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at 12-months after kidney transplantation is associated with increased risk of allograft loss, but it is uncertain whether donor age and typesmodify this relationship. Using Australia and NewZealand registry data, multivariable Cox proportional modelling was used to examine the interactive effects between donor age, types and 12-month eGFR on overall allograft loss. We included 11,095 recipients (4,423 received live-donors). Recipients with lowest 12-month eGFR (<30 ml/min/1.73m2) experienced the greatest risk of allograft loss, with adjusted HR [95% CI) of 2.65 [2.38-2.95] compared to eGFR of 30-60 ml/min/1.73m2; whereas the adjusted HR for highest eGFR (>60 ml/min/1.73m2) was 0.67 [0.62-0.74]. The association of 12-month eGFR and allograft loss was modified by donor age (but not donor types) where a higher risk of allograft loss in recipients with lower compared with higher 12-month eGFR being most pronounced in the younger donor age groups (p < 0.01). Recipients with eGFR <30 ml/min/1.73m2 12-months after transplantation experienced =2.5-fold increased risk of overall allograft loss compared to those with eGFR of >60ml/min/1.73m2, and the magnitude of the increased risk is most marked among recipients with younger donors. Careful deliberation of other factors including donor age when considering eGFR as a surrogate for clinical endpoints is warranted.
