CONTEXT: Thyroid dysfunction is prevalent in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients and significantly impacts renal outcomes and mortality. OBJECTIVE: This study investigated the associations between thyroid function and clinical outcomes, and also the therapeutic effects of thyroid hormone replacement therapy (THRT) in CKD patients. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study using data from the China Renal Data System. The primary endpoints were composite renal failure and all-cause mortality. The secondary endpoint was the impact of THRT on renal outcomes. Associations were analyzed using multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models and Kaplan-Meier survival analyses, with adjustment for relevant clinical and demographic covariates. RESULTS: Among 30 804 CKD patients enrolled, 26 673 (86.6%) had normal thyroid function, 2291 (7.4%) had hypothyroidism, and 1840 (6.0%) had hyperthyroidism. Hypothyroidism independently predicted increased risk of renal failure (adjusted HR = 1.29; 95% CI, 1.15-1.45; P < .001). Both hypothyroidism (adjusted HR = 1.24; 95% CI, 1.11-1.39; P < .001) and hyperthyroidism (adjusted HR = 1.20; 95% CI, 1.07-1.33; P < .01) were associated with increased all-cause mortality. Notably, THRT was associated with significantly reduced risk of renal failure (adjusted HR = 0.65; 95% CI, 0.52-0.82; P < .001) in hypothyroid patients. CONCLUSION: This large-scale cohort study demonstrates that hypothyroidism accelerates CKD progression, while bo...
