Purpose: Potential adverse outcomes of Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) have increasingly been reported. The potential risks to PPIs include hypomagnesemia and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Unlike a real-world electronic medical record (RW-EMR) with active-comparator design, claim databases and special population cohort with non-user design, using in previous studies, resulted in a wide range of strength of association with indication bias. This study aimed to measure the total effect of association between PPIs use and CKD incidence using Thai RW-EMR. Patients and Methods: A retrospective hospital-based cohort was applied into this study. Electronic medical records and administrative data of out- and inpatient were retrieved from October 1st, 2010 to September 30th, 2017. On-treatment with grace period as well as propensity score matching was used in data analysis. Cox proportional hazard models were applied to evaluate the PPIs-CKD association. Results: Of all 63,595 participants, a total of 59,477 new PPIs and 4118 Histamine 2-receptor antagonist (H2RA) users were eligible for follow-up. As compared with H2RA, the PPI users were non-elderly and more likely being female. The association of PPIs with CKD was statistically significant (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] = 3.753, 95% CI = 2.385– 5.905). The HR were not statistically different by concomitant use PPIs with NSAIDs and by medication possession ratio levels. Conclusion: The association between PPIs and CKD incidence was statistically significant in this hospital-based cohort. However, self-treatment with over-the-counter PPIs, as well as, smoking, drinking alcohol and body mass index could not be fully retrieved, affecting the estimation of treatment effect.
