摘要
Background: Although chronic kidney disease has been linked to cerebral small-vessel disease (CSVD), a definite relationship between them has not been established. This study assessed whether low estimated glomerular filtration is associated with risk of different subtypes of CSVDs. Methods: Electronic databases were systematically searched for studies reporting an odds ratio of the association between low estimated glomerular filtration and CSVD risk. Sixteen studies, including 10,534 participants, were identified. A fix effects model was applied and odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals were presented. Results: Overall, risk of CSVDs was greater in individuals with low estimated glomerular filtration (OR = 2.20). Stratified analyses consistently showed significant associations across different subtypes, with pooled OR being greatest in subjects with silent cerebral infarction (SCI) (OR = 2.71) and cerebral microbleed (OR = 2.70). A pooled estimate of studies showing OR as a continuous variable showed results consistent with the former analysis (OR = .98 per standard deviation decrease) in low estimated glomerular filtration. Conclusions: This study revealed that low estimated glomerular filtration was significantly associated with risk of CSVDs. Low estimated glomerular filtration was most strongly associated with SCI (OR = 2.71) among subtypes of CSVDs.
