DNAJB11-associated disease is a phenotypic hybrid of ADPKD and ADTKD, characterized by normal-sized cystic kidneys and progressive interstitial fibrosis resulting in late-onset ESRD.
Mean FGF-23 levels increased markedly as time before ESKD decreased, while PTH and phosphate levels increased modestly and calcium levels declined minimally.
We therefore determined vertebral fracture prevalence and incidence in ESRD patients and assessed associations of vertebral trabecular bone mineral density (BMD) and PTH with vertebral fracture.
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers may reduce the risk of end-stage renal disease and slow the progression of nephropathy, but they do not appear to decrease all-cause or cardiovascular mortality in people with Type 2 diabetes and proteinuria.
The C allele in rs5186 in AGTR1 was associated with higher rates of death and major cardiovascular events in a meta-analysis of EA and AfAn patients with end-stage kidney disease.SNPs in ACE were associated with SCD.
Renal hyperparathyroidism is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) or end-stage renal disease (ESRD) characterized by elevated parathyroid hormone levels secondary to derangements in the homeostasis of calcium, phosphate, and vitamin D. Rapid correction of severe and prolonged hyperparathyroidism by surgical parathyroidectomy in long-term hemodialysis patients occasionally causes hungry bone syndrome.
In CKD stage 5, creatinine and cFGF23 levels, as well as the cFGF23/Klotho ratio, were higher (P < 0.01), phosphate and iFGF23 levels were higher (P < 0.05), and Klotho levels were lower (P < 0.01), compared with CKD stage 4.
This meta-analysis suggested that I/D polymorphism of ACE can markedly increase the incidence of diabetes-related end-stage renal disease, especially in Asian populations.
In conclusion, higher adiponectin levels are associated with a higher risk of ESRD independent of conventional risk factors, BMI, and metabolic syndrome components.
A literature search was conducted using MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Database from inception through November 2017 to identify studies evaluating incidence of denosumab-associated hypocalcemia and changes in serum calcium, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), parathyroid hormone (PTH), and BMD from baseline to post-treatment course of denosumab in ESRD patients.
This meta-analysis aims to assess the benefits of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) supplemented with <italic>Rheum officinale</italic> for delaying the progression of chronic renal failure.
The association between the use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) and mortality in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients lacks sufficient evidence.
For renal outcomes, ARBs significantly reduced the risk of ESRD by 23% (odds ratio 0.77, 95%CI 0.65-0.92), while ACE inhibitors were not associated with a decreased risk of ESRD (0.69, 0.43-1.10).
This study examined the features of different PTH fragments in stage 5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the effects of parathyroidectomy (PTX) on the above markers in severe secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) patients.
In light of these findings, the main pathophysiological consequence of the downregulation of Klotho observed in acute and chronic renal failure may be the induction of renal FGF23 resistance.
Although current treatment strategies focus on correcting abnormal calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone, or vitamin D levels in ESRD patients, a better understanding of the mechanisms of abnormal tissue calcification may lead to the development of new therapeutic agents that are capable of reducing vascular calcification and improving the cardiovascular outcome of ESRD patients.
Use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (compared to other antihypertensive agents) was associated with a lower risk for eGFR <45 mL/min/1.73m², HR 0.64 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.45-0.9), P = .01, and also less ESRD; HR 0.03 (95% CI 0.001-0.20), P = .004.
However, recent translational work has provided compelling evidence for a causal role of parathyroid hormone (PTH) in the pathogenesis of adipose tissue browning and increased energy expenditure, a critical component of PEW in ESRD.
Decreased expression of transforming growth factor-β1 and α-smooth muscle actin contributes to the protection of lotensin against chronic renal failure in rats.
