Effect of social deprivation on peritoneal dialysis uptake. A mediation analysis with the data of the REIN Registry - 13/09/21
Résumé |
Introduction |
Social deprivation could act as a barrier to peritoneal dialysis. The objective of this study was to assess the association between social deprivation estimated by the European deprivation index (EDI) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) uptake and to explore the potential mediators of this association.
Description |
From the REIN registry, patients who started dialysis in 2017 were included. The EDI was calculated based on the patient address.
Methods |
The event of interest was the proportion of PD 3months after dialysis initiation. A mediation analysis with a counterfactual approach was carried out to evaluate the direct and indirect effect of the EDI on the proportion of PD. Emergency start and hemoglobin levels were tested as mediator.
Results |
Among the 9588 patients included, 1116 patients were on PD; 2894 (30.2%) patients belonged to the most deprived quintile (Q5). PD was associated with age>70years (OR: 0.79 [95% CI: 0.69–0.91]), male gender (0.85 [95% CI: 0.74–0.97]), cardiovascular disease (OR: 0.86 [95% CI: 0.86–1.00]), chronic heart failure (OR: 1.34 [95% CI: 1.13–1.58]), active cancer (OR: 0.67 95% CI: [0.53–0.85]) and obesity (OR: 0.75 [95% CI: 0.63–0.89]). In the mediation analysis, Q5 had a direct effect on PD proportion OR: 0.84 [95% CI: 0.73–0.96]. The effect of Q5 on the proportion of PD was mediated by haemoglobin level at dialysis initiation (OR: 0.96 [95% CI: 0.94–0.98]) and emergency start (OR: 0.98 [95% CI: 0.96–0.99]).
Conclusion |
Social deprivation, estimated by the EDI, was associated with a lower PD uptake. The effect of social deprivation was mediated by haemoglobin level, a proxy of predialysis care and emergency start.
