As a central homeostatic organ, the kidneys perform diverse physiologic functions beyond glomerular filtration, including the synthesis of vital hormones, secretion of protein-bound organic solutes, and maintenance of salt and water balance. The intact nephron hypothesis postulates a progressive and proportionate decline of kidney functions across the spectrum of chronic kidney disease (CKD). 1 However, several lines of evidence suggest contrasts between tubular and glomerular functions in the diseased state. For example, the degree of tubulointerstitial injury on kidney biopsy is among the strongest determinants of disease progression in diabetes and other glomerular disorders, yet this pathological lesion is often dissociated from glomerular filtration rate (GFR). 2, 3 Furthermore, the presence and severity of metabolic complications and uremic symptoms vary across people with similar levels of GFR. Therefore, there is reason to suspect non-uniform declines in distinct kidney functions across diseases and individuals with potentially important clinical implications.In this issue of the American Journal of Kidney Disease, Tabibzadeh and colleagues report on the clinical significance of the maximum urinary concentrating ability, an intrinsic kidney tubular function. The authors measured urine osmolality (Uosm) in spot morning samples collected from 1,796 persons with CKD in the multi-center NephroTest cohort. The mean GFR of the study group, determined by 51Cr-EDTA clearance, was 40.2 ml/min/1.73 m2. Participants were instructed not to eat or drink after 8 PM on the night prior to the urine collection. As expected, most participants were able to concentrate their urine above the expected osmolality of plasma: the median (interquartile range) of fasting Uosm values was 482 mOsm/kgH2O (402–591 mOsm/kgH2O). Yet, there was considerable variability in urinary concentrating ability across study individuals. After adjustment for measured GFR and other covariates, the lowest tertile of fasting Uosm was associated with an approximate two-times higher risk of progression to end stage kidney disease (ESKD): hazard ratio 2.0 (95% CI 1.3 to 3.1). The association with pre-ESKD death did not reach statistical significance: hazard ratio 0.99 (95% CI 0.68 to 1.44). Lower fasting Uosm levels were also associated with a greater decline in measured GFR over time. These findings suggest that impaired urinary concentrating ability may reflect kidney tubular damage that is not captured by glomerular filtration.
