Coffee is a daily drink in Europe and the United States. With the development of globalization, coffee is becoming more and more common in China. But studies have found that coffee is associated with an increased risk of dementia, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, liver cirrhosis and osteoporosis, as well as increased frequency and volume of urination. However, the effect of coffee on kidney function is not clear.
Recently, Karn Wijarnpreecha and colleagues at Bassett Medical and Health Center conducted a meta-analysis to assess the correlation between coffee and CKD. The results were published in the journal International Journal of Clinical Practice.
Research review
The researchers screened 2438 articles published in the MEDLINE and EMBASE databases before June 2016 and eventually included 4 studies with 14898 patients. Inclusion criteria: (1) case-control, cross-sectional or cohort studies comparing the risk of CKD between coffee drinkers and non-coffee drinkers; (2) the study data included standardized incidence ratios (SIR) of odds ratio (OR), relative risk (RR), risk ratio (HR) or 95% confidence interval (CI). Inverse variance analysis and random effect analysis were used to analyze the data.
Main results
There was no significant correlation between coffee and CKD, and the total RR was 0.71 (95%CI:0.47-1.08) (figure 1). The statistical heterogeneity is moderate: I2 is 66%. Subgroup analysis (female and male subgroups) showed that there was no significant correlation between coffee and CKD risk in male subgroups. The total RR of female subgroup was 0.81 (95%CI:0.58-1.13), and that of male was 1.10 (95%CI:0.94-1.29) (see figures 2 and 3).

This study is the first meta-analysis to assess the risk of coffee and CKD, and the results show that there is no significant correlation between CKD and coffee. Some researchers believe that coffee can protect renal function and reduce the risk of renal injury, but the specific mechanism is not clear. The possible mechanisms are: coffee contains a variety of ingredients, which can protect glomerular endothelial cells from oxidative stress; coffee can reduce hyperuricemia and delay the progress of CKD; the anti-diabetic effect of coffee helps to prevent the progression of diabetic nephropathy.
Subgroup analysis showed that there was no significant correlation between coffee consumption and CKD in men, which may be due to the limited research data; coffee consumption in women can reduce the risk of CKD, but further research is needed to confirm the potential correlation between coffee and the risk of CKD progression in women.

Why can you concentrate on your work in a noisy coffee shop, but not in a quiet office?
Professional baristas Communication Please follow the Coffee Workshop (Wechat official account cafe_style) I believe many people have the feeling that you can work very attentively in a noisy coffee shop, but it is difficult to do so in an open-plan office. Why on earth did this happen? Research shows that an appropriate level of ambient noise can stimulate our thinking to think more creatively.
