BACKGROUND: Despite the improvements in hemodialysis (HD) technology, 20-30% of sessions are still complicated by hypotension or hypotension-related symptoms. Biofeedback systems have proven to reduce the occurrence of such events, but no conclusive findings can lead to wider adoption of these systems. We conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials to establish whether the use of blood volume tracking systems compared to conventional hemodialysis (C-HD) reduces the occurrence of intradialytic hypotension...

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to compare the diagnostic yield of the FRAIL scale with respect to the physical frailty phenotype measure and their association with mortality in non-dialysis-dependent patients. METHODS: In this prospective cohort study, non-dialysis dependent patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 3b-5 seen in the nephrology outpatient clinics of two university hospitals were included. The presence of frailty was evaluated by physical frailty phenotype measure and the FRAIL scale...

BACKGROUND: Various immune cells, including T cells, B cells, macrophages, and neutrophils contribute to the development of crescentic glomerulonephritis. Previous animal studies have suggested that lymphangiogenesis is involved in the migration of inflammatory cells and the activation of adaptive immunity. However, the extent of the association between lymphatic vessels and crescentic glomerulonephritis severity and prognosis remains unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS: In this study, we assessed lymphatic vessel density in 71 patients with crescentic glomerulonephritis who underwent renal biopsies between June 2017 and June 2022...

INTRODUCTION: The prevalence of mental health disorders including anxiety and depression is increasing and is linked to hypertension in healthy individuals. However, the relationship of psychosocial patient-reported outcomes on blood pressure (BP) in primary proteinuric glomerulopathies is not well characterized. This study explored longitudinal relationships between psychosocial patient-reported outcomes and BP status among individuals with proteinuric glomerulopathies. METHODS: An observational cohort study was performed using data from 745 adults and children enrolled in the Nephrotic Syndrome Study Network (NEPTUNE)...

BACKGROUND: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) offers quality of life and empowerment for persons with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). Nevertheless, the prevalence of PD is low in Belgium and Europe in general. Reimbursement, patient mix and late referral have been quoted as underlying reasons. However, to date no one-size-fits-all solution increasing uptake of PD has been successfully implemented. We aimed to understand the nephrologist's perspective, beliefs, and experiences on dialysis modality selection and to clarify underlying process-level and intrinsic motivations steering final decisions...

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of disability in CKD is high. In this context the aim of the present study was to assess the  temporal trends of prevalence and disability progression for chronic kidney disease (CKD) caused by specific etiologies. METHODS: Using data from the Global Burden of Diseases Study (GBD) 2019, we examined the age-standardized rates of CKD prevalence and disability-adjusted life-years for different etiologies, including Type 1/2 diabetes mellitus (T1DM/T2DM), glomerulonephritis, and hypertension...

BACKGROUND: Increased intraperitoneal pressure is associated with abdominal wall complications and technical failure of peritoneal dialysis (PD). Several equations have been developed to estimate intraperitoneal pressure. We aimed to assess the prognostic yield of the intraperitoneal pressure as estimated by current equations on the occurrence of abdominal wall complications in peritoneal dialysis patients. METHODS: This is a retrospective analysis of data from a prospective cohort which recruited 1207 incident PD patients...

REVIEW
Canlin Yang, Zhiyuan Wei, Wen Shi, Jie Xing, Xiaoliang Zhang
Vascular calcification is a common complication in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is strongly associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. Calciphylaxis is a specific and life-threatening manifestation of vascular calcifications that usually affects individuals with advanced kidney function impairment or those undergoing dialysis. Currently, the treatment of vascular calcification and calciphylaxis in CKD lacks approved treatments and focuses on controlling risk factors...

BACKGROUND: Fabry nephropathy is a consequence of the deposition of globotriaosylceramide, caused by deficient GLA enzyme activity in all types of kidney cells. These deposits are perceived as damage signals leading to activation of inflammation resulting in renal fibrosis. There are few studies related to immunophenotype characterization of the renal infiltrate in kidneys in patients with Fabry disease and its relationship to mechanisms of fibrosis. This work aims to quantify TGF-β1 and active caspase 3 expression and to analyze the profile of cells in inflammatory infiltration in kidney biopsies from Fabry naïve-patients, and to investigate correlations with clinical parameters...

BACKGROUND: Hyponatremia is implicated in pathological bone resorption and has been identified as a risk factor for bone fracture in the general population. However, there are limited data on the association between serum sodium levels and fracture risk in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). METHODS: We analyzed a historical cohort of 2220 maintenance HD patients to examine the association between serum sodium levels and the risk of fracture and mortality. We also examined the association between serum sodium levels and osteoporosis, based on metacarpal bone mineral density, in a subcohort of 455 patients with available data...

#15
REVIEW
Sidar Copur, Lasin Ozbek, Mustafa Guldan, Ahmet Umur Topcu, Mehmet Kanbay
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), the most common hereditary kidney disease, accounts for approximately 10% of the patients on kidney transplantation waitlists. High rates of complications including hemorrhage, infections, nephrolithiasis and kidney size-related compressive complaints have been reported among ADPKD patients. Therefore, the need for routine native nephrectomy and timing of such procedure in ADPKD patients being prepared for transplantation are debated. Even though pre-transplant nephrectomy has the potential to provide fewer infectious complications due to lack of immunosuppressive medication use, such procedure has been associated with longer hospital stay, loss of residual kidney function and need for dialysis...

BACKGROUND: Phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R)-associated membranous nephropathy accounts for the majority of membranous nephropathy; however, few studies have determined the prognostic impact and clinical application of renal pathologic change on this disease. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study of 262 patients with PLA2R-associated membranous nephropathy was conducted. The total renal chronicity score calculated according to the degree of glomerulosclerosis, interstitial fibrosis, tubular atrophy, and arteriosclerosis was applied to evaluate renal chronicity...

AIM: This study aimed to assess the predictive role of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio, and mean platelet volume, on catheter survival in chronic hemodialysis patients, analyzing both infectious and non-infectious complications. METHODS: A retrospective analysis encompassed 1279 tunneled catheter insertion procedures involving 902 patients between March 2014 and October 2018. Patients were categorized into two main groups: (i) initial placement and (ii) exchange...

Cystinuria is an autosomal recessive disorder associated with defective proximal tubular reabsorption of divalent amino acids. It leads to increased cystine, ornithine, lysine, and arginine excretion in the urine. Cystine is insoluble in physiological pH, and cystinuria leads to crystalluria and nephrolithiasis. We present a case of acquired cystinuria in a renal transplant recipient, that is, to the best of our knowledge, the first case of acquired cystinuria ever documented in the literature.

BACKGROUND: In Italy, nephrology residency is available in twenty-one nephrology schools, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. The present study is aimed at exploring the residents' satisfaction with their training programs. METHODS: Between April 20th and May 19th, 2021, a questionnaire on residency satisfaction consisting of 49 items was sent to 586 residents and 175 recently certified specialists (qualified to practice as nephrologists in 2019 and 2020), with a response rate of 81% and 51%, respectively...
