The Impact of BMI Changes on the Incidence of Glomerular Hematuria in Korean Adults: A Retrospective Study Based on the NHIS-HEALS Cohort

Obesity and recurrent hematuria are known risk factors for chronic kidney disease. However, there has been controversy on the association between obesity and glomerular hematuria. This study aimed to investigate the association between body mass index (BMI) and weight change and recurrent and persistent hematuria in glomerular disease using a large-scale, population-based Korean cohort. Data were collected from the National Health Insurance Service-National Health Screening Cohort. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for recurrent and persistent hematuria in glomerular disease according to the BMI group. Compared with the BMI 23–25 kg/m<sup<2</sup< group, the HR (95% CI) for incident recurrent and persistent hematuria in glomerular disease was 0.921 (0.831–1.021) in the BMI <23 kg/m<sup<2</sup< group, 0.915 (0.823–1.018) in the BMI 25–30 kg/m<sup<2</sup< group, and 1.151 (0.907–1.462) in the BMI ≥30 kg/m<sup<2</sup< group. Compared with the stable weight group, the HRs (95% CIs) for incident recurrent and persistent hematuria in glomerular disease were 1.364 (1.029–1.808) and 0.985 (0.733–1.325) in the significant weight loss and gain groups, respectively. Despite adjusting for confounders, this result remained significant. Baseline BMI was not associated with the risk of incident recurrent and persistent hematuria in glomerular disease. Weight loss greater than 10% was associated with the incidence of recurrent and persistent hematuria in glomerular disease. Therefore, maintaining an individual’s weight could help prevent recurrent and persistent hematuria in glomerular disease in middle-aged and older Korean adults..
