Background and objectives The estimated glomerular filtration rate
(eGFR) is a crucial parameter in heart failure. Much less is known about
the importance of tubular function. We addressed the effect of tubular
maximum phosphate reabsorption capacity (TmP/GFR), a parameter of
proximal tubular function, in patients with heart failure.Design,
setting, participants, & measurements We established TmP/GFR (Bijvoet
formula) in 2085 patients with heart failure and studied its association
with deterioration of kidney function (> 25% eGFR decrease from
baseline) and plasma neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL)
doubling (baseline to 9 months) using logistic regression analysis and
clinical outcomes using Cox proportional hazards regression.
Additionally, we evaluated the effect of sodium-glucose transport
protein 2 (SGLT2) inhibition by empagliflozin on tubular maximum
phosphate reabsorption capacity in 78 patients with acute heart failure
using analysis of covariance.Results Low TmP/GFR (< 0.80 mmol/L) was
observed in 1392 (67%) and 21 (27%) patients. Patients with lower
TmP/GFR had more advanced heart failure, lower eGFR, and higher levels
of tubular damage markers. The main determinant of lower TmP/GFR was
higher fractional excretion of urea (P < 0.001). Lower TmP/GFR was
independently associated with higher risk of plasma NGAL doubling (odds
ratio, 2.20; 95% confidence interval, 1.05 to 4.66; P=0.04) but not
with deterioration of kidney function. Lower TmP/GFR was associated with
higher risk of all-cause mortality (hazard ratio, 2.80; 95% confidence
interval, 1.37 to 5.73; P=0.005), heart failure hospitalization (hazard
ratio, 2.29; 95% confidence interval, 1.08 to 4.88; P=0.03), and their
combination (hazard ratio, 1.89; 95% confidence interval, 1.07 to 3.36;
P=0.03) after multivariable adjustment. Empagliflozin significantly
increased TmP/GFR compared with placebo after 1 day (P=0.004) but not
after adjustment for eGFR change.Conclusions TmP/GFR, a measure of
proximal tubular function, is frequently reduced in heart failure,
especially in patients with more advanced heart failure. Lower TmP/GFR
is furthermore associated with future risk of plasma NGAL doubling and
worse clinical outcomes, independent of glomerular function.
