L-FABP predicted progression of diabetic nephropathy
the FinnDiane Study
1) to investigate the prognostic value of urinary L-FABP for the prediction of the most important cardiovascular outcomes and mortality
2) to investigate the added clinical benefit of urinary L-FABP for the prediction of the most important cardiovascular outcomes and mortality
in patients with type 1 diabetes
Study objectives
5
the FinnDiane Study
• This study is part of the ongoing FinnDiane Study
• The study included 1952 subjects with type 1 diabetes
• The patients have been followed for a median of 10.6 years (IQR 8.9 – 11.8) until 18 september 2011
• Data on medication and clinical history were registered at baseline with the use of a standardized questionnaire
• L-FABP was measured in a single 24-h urine collection with an Cobas Elecsys 411 Immunoanalyzer (Roche Diagnostics, Basel, Switzerland). L-FABP values were then normalized with u-creatinine.

Material and methods
the FinnDiane Study
• Statistical methods:
- Prediction - Cox regression analysis
- Added benefit: - ROC curve analysis
- net reclassification improvement (NRI)
- integrated discrimination improvement (IDI)
- explained variability (R2)
- Traditional adjustment model - Age, sex, diabetes duration, LDL cholesterol, glycated
hemoglobin A1c, systolic blood pressure.
• Outcomes were documented
- FinnDiane data
- Finish Hospital Discharge Registry (HDR)
- Finnish Cause of Death Registry (CDR)

Outcomes
• Stroke (ischemic or haemorrhagic) - history of ischemic a history of ischemic, haemorrhagic or not specified stroke.
• CAD - history of acute myocardial infarction or a coronary artery procedure (bypass grafting surgery or angioplasty)
• PVD - limb amputation or peripheral artery procedure (bypass grafting surgery or angioplasty)
• CVD - composite outcome (stroke, CAD and PVD)
• Mortality – death of any cause

Results – prediction of outcomes
the FinnDiane Study Urinary L-FABP predicted stroke and mortality
11
Results – comparison with other markers
the FinnDiane Study
L-FABP was as good as AER or eGFR for stroke and mortality prediction
12
Results – comparison with other markers
the FinnDiane Study
L-FABP was better than HbA1c or LDL and as good as SBP for stroke and mortality prediction
13
Results – added clinical benefit on top of actual markers
the FinnDiane Study
Urinary L-FABP added benefit for prediction of stroke but not mortality
14
Conclusions
• Urinary L-FABP is an independent predictor for stroke and mortality in type 1 diabetes.
• Urinary L-FABP was as good as eGFR, AER or SBP and better than HbA1c or LDL for the prediction of stroke and mortality
• Urinary L-FABP added clinical benefit when used alone or together with AER or eGFR, only for the prediction of stroke
