Overview

Associations of kidney tubule biomarkers with retinal microvascular signs in individuals without CKD, suggesting systemic dysfunction.

Key Points

  • Narrower central retinal arteriolar equivalents (CRAE) are linked to higher plasma and urine KIM-1 levels.
  • Plasma suPAR concentrations are associated with wider CRAE and central retinal venular equivalents (CRVE).
  • The study evaluates kidney tubule biomarkers' relationships with retinal microvascular health markers.
  • These findings indicate that kidney tubule biomarkers may reveal microvascular dysfunction mechanisms connecting CKD and cardiovascular disease.
