IMPROVE kidney care: perspectives from marginalised people with CKD and risk factors for CKD on access to, and experience of, kidney care services: a cross-sector collaborative exploration, employing qualitative approaches.

BACKGROUND: Access to, and experience of, chronic kidney disease (CKD) care is inequitable-with barriers to accessing quality care for marginalised groups. We conducted an exploratory study employing qualitative approaches to understand the factors that influence access to, and experience of, healthcare services for marginalised people with CKD and at risk of CKD. METHODS: An exploratory study employing qualitative approaches was conducted as a cross-sector collaboration between kidney care services and an activist, antiracist community-based research and social justice organisation (Mabadiliko Community Interest Company (CIC)). Two groups were recruited: 1) those with risk factors for CKD or early-stage CKD, and 2) people who presented late to kidney care services. Semi-structured interviews were co-designed with people with lived experience and conducted by Mabadiliko CIC. Thematic analysis was undertaken, with themes refined by participants. RESULTS: Twenty interviews were undertaken with a diverse cohort of participants. Knowledge and awareness of CKD was limited, and compounded by a lack of delivery of accessible, culturally congruent information. Significant barriers to accessing kidney care exist for marginalised people, including people who are from global majority ethnic backgrounds, Disabled people, and/or people experiencing material hardship. These barriers are compounded by interpersonal discrimination and paternalistic power dynamics within healthcare interactions. CONCLUSION: This study captures the experiences of marginalised people at different stages of their journey with CKD, in accessing and engaging with kidney care services. Participants faced a complex array of challenges, highlighting opportunities for multi-level intervention. We outline recommendations to address these issues, co-developed with participants.

Polygenic Risk Scores Predicting Estimated GFR Validated With Iohexol Clearance.

INTRODUCTION: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified hundreds of single nucleotide variants (SNVs) associated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). eGFR has been used as a proxy phenotype because of the complexity and cost of measured GFR (mGFR) in large studies. Because eGFR is influenced by non-GFR factors, these GWAS results may be biased compared with a hypothetical study using mGFR. We aimed to investigate this by comparing aggregate measures of genetic effects on mGFR and eGFR. METHODS: We studied 1492 persons from the Renal Iohexol Clearance Survey (RENIS) cohort, a representative sample of the general population in Northern Norway without preexisting cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, or diabetes. We measured iohexol-clearance, and genotyping was performed with a microarray chip enriched for GFR-related SNVs. We compared the performance of 3 published polygenic risk scores (PGS) developed for creatinine-based eGFR (eGFRcr), narrow-sense heritability (h2) and the mean effect of SNVs on mGFR, eGFRcr, cystatin C-based eGFR (eGFRcys) and eGFRcr-cys. RESULTS: The performance of the PGS differed for mGFR and the 3 eGFRs, with best performance for prediction of eGFRcr (P < 0.05). However, when the beta coefficients of the SNVs in the 3 PGS were estimated in the RENIS-cohort, their magnitude was 11% to 46% greater for mGFR than for the 3 eGFR methods in 8 of 9 comparisons (P < 0.05). mGFR had higher h2 (0.47) than eGFRcr (0.21), eGFRcys (0.37), and eGFRcr-cys (0.42). CONCLUSIONS: SNVs with non-GFR effects on creatinine and cystatin-C influence GWAS results. The results of GWAS using eGFR should be validated using experimental and other more precise methods.
