MBD-CKD

INTRODUCTION: It has been observed that intravenous iron administration may suppress endogenous production of erythropoietin (EPO). We postulate that this effect may be mediated by increased FGF-23 secretion. AIM OF THE STUDY: To evaluate the short-term effect of intravenous iron sucrose administration on endogenous EPO secretion in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). MATERIALS AND METHODS: The cohort comprised 35 nondialysis patients with CKD stages 3-5...

Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral and Bone Disorder (CKD-MBD) comprises alterations in calcium, phosphorus, parathyroid hormone (PTH), Vitamin D, and fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) metabolism, abnormalities in bone turnover, mineralization, volume, linear growth or strength, and vascular calcification leading to an increase in bone fractures and vascular disease, which ultimately result in high morbidity and mortality. The bone component of CKD-MBD, referred to as renal osteodystrophy, starts early during the course of CKD as a result of the effects of progressive reduction in kidney function which modify the tight interaction between mineral, hormonal, and other biochemical mediators of cell function that ultimately lead to bone disease...

The bone-derived hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) functions in concert with parathyroid hormone (PTH) and the active vitamin D metabolite, 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D (1,25D), to control phosphate and calcium homeostasis. A rise in circulating levels of phosphate and 1,25D leads to FGF23 production in bone. Circulating FGF23 acts on the kidney by binding to FGF receptors and the co-receptor α-Klotho to promote phosphaturia and reduce circulating 1,25D levels. Various other biomolecules that are produced by the kidney, including lipocalin-2, glycerol 3-phosphate, 1-acyl lysophosphatidic acid and erythropoietin, are involved in the regulation of mineral metabolism via effects on FGF23 synthesis in bone...

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a complex and multifactorial disease, and one of the most prevalent worldwide. Chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorders (CKD-MBD) with biochemical and hormonal alterations are part of the complications associated with the progression of CKD. Pathophysiology of CKD-MBD focused on abnormalities in serum levels of several biomarkers (such as FGF-23, klotho, phosphate, calcium, vitamin D, and PTH) which are discussed in this review. We therefore examine the prognostic association between CKD-MBD and the increased risk for cardiovascular events, mortality, and CKD progression to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD)...

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is linked to a rising prevalence of morbidity and mortality primarily from cardiovascular complications and is considered a high or very high-risk associated cardiovascular state. These poor outcomes are associated with CKD-mineral and bone disorders (CKD-MBD) in CKD patients, which are manifested by vascular calcification. Patients with chronic renal illness have not only accelerated intimal and medial calcification, but heart valves, and possibly the myocardium get also calcified, as well as the uncommon state of calcific uremic arteriolopathy (calciphylaxis)...

BACKGROUND: Elevated serum phosphate and parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentrations are associated with cardiovascular events, bone disease, and mortality in patients on maintenance hemodialysis. Although circadian changes are known in people with CKD, it is unknown whether differences occur in these parameters over the course of a day in people receiving hemodialysis. METHODS: We used clinical data from Fresenius Medical Care US dialysis clinics to determine how the time of day when measurements were collected (hemodialysis treatment start time) may be associated with serum phosphate and PTH concentrations...

BACKGROUND: It is necessary to re-examine the optimal phosphate (P) and calcium (Ca) target values in the contemporary management of chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder to reduce the risks of cardiovascular events in patients receiving hemodialysis. METHODS: We performed a post-hoc analysis of the LANDMARK study. The outcomes were defined as cardiovascular events and all-cause death. Data from 2135 patients receiving hemodialysis at risk of vascular calcification were analyzed using a time-dependent Cox proportional hazard model adjusted for background factors...

The bone and mineral disorders form an integral part of the management of a chronic kidney disease (CKD) patient. Amongst various types of bone pathologies in chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD), the prevalence of adynamic bone disease (ABD) is increasing. The present review discusses the updated pathophysiology, risk factors, and management of this disorder.

INTRODUCTION: Real-life data on the predialysis management of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is scarce. In this study, our aim was to investigate the current clinical practice and compliance among nephrologists with the KDIGO chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) guidelines. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this multicenter cross-sectional study, we recruited stage 3 - 5 non-dialysis (ND) CKD patients and recorded the data related to CKD-MBD from two consecutive outpatient clinical visits 3 - 6 months apart...

Background  Progressive loss of kidney function in chronic kidney disease (CKD) leads to altered mineral homeostasis, reflected by the imbalance in calcium and phosphorus, and has been associated with progression of renal failure. Aims  The aim of this study was to investigate CKD-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD)-associated candidate variables and its relationship with parathyroid hormone (PTH), as well as to quantify the prevalence of CKD-associated mineral disturbances in nondialyzed CKD patients...

Mineral and bone disorder biomarkers 'normal ranges' are controversial. The aim of the study was to evaluate the association between serum calcium (Ca), phosphate (P), intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), and 25(OH) vitamin D levels and mortality risk, in a chronic kidney disease (CKD) grade (G) 3b-4 cohort. The Uruguayan National Renal Healthcare Program (NRHP-UY) CKD patients' cohort, included between 1 October 2004 and 1 March 2020 and followed-up until 1 March 2021, was analyzed with the Ethics Committee approval...

INTRODUCTION: Endothelial dysfunction commonly occurs in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients and increases the risk for cardiovascular disease. Among CKD patients, biomarkers involved in the pathogenesis of CKD-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD), such as phosphorus, parathyroid hormone, and fibroblast growth factor 23, are associated with endothelial dysfunction. We investigated whether these biomarkers induce endothelial dysfunction in CKD patients with normal phosphorus levels. METHODS: This cross-sectional study examined CKD patients with normal phosphorus levels; patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <15 or who were under dialysis were excluded...

BACKGROUND: Biomarkers of the CKD- Bone Mineral Disorder (CKD-BMD have been implicated in CKD progression in follow up studies focusing on single measurements of individual biomarkers made at baseline only. The simultaneous relationship between the time trend of these biomarkers over the course of CKD and renal outcomes has never been tested. METHODS: We applied the Joint Model (JM) to investigate the longitudinal relationship between repeated measurements of CKD-MBD biomarkers and a combined renal endpoint (eGFR reduction >30%, dialysis or transplantation) in 729 stage 2-5 CKD patients over a 36 months follow up...

Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a new endocrine product discovered in the past decade. In addition to being related to bone diseases, it has also been found to be related to kidney metabolism and parathyroid metabolism, especially as a biomarker and a key factor to be used in kidney diseases. FGF23 is upregulated as early as the second and third stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in response to relative phosphorus overload. The early rise of FGF23 has a protective effect on the body and is essential for maintaining phosphate balance...

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with different complications, including chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD), which represents a systemic disorder that involves the presence of different mineral or bone structure abnormalities (i.e., modification of bone turnover, strength, volume, etc.), including even vascular calcification development. Even if, over the years, different pathophysiological theories have been developed to explain the onset and progression of CKD-MBD, the influence and importance of serum magnesium level on the evolution of CKD have only recently been highlighted...

Renal transplantation (RTx) allows us to obtain the resolution of the uremic status but is not frequently able to solve all the metabolic complications present during end-stage renal disease. Mineral and bone disorders (MBDs) are frequent since the early stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and strongly influence the morbidity and mortality of patients with CKD. Some mineral metabolism (MM) alterations can persist in patients with RTx (RTx-p), as well as in the presence of complete renal function recovery...

Vasculature plays a key role in bone development and the maintenance of bone tissue throughout life. The two organ systems are not only linked in normal physiology, but also in pathophysiological conditions. The chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is still the most serious complication to CKD, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. Current treatment therapies aimed at the phosphate retention and parathyroid hormone disturbances fail to reduce the high cardiovascular mortality in CKD patients, underlining the importance of other factors in the complex syndrome...

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) mineral bone disorder has long-term effects on skeletal integrity and growth. Abnormalities in serum markers of mineral metabolism are evident early in pediatric CKD. Bone deformities, poor linear growth, and high rates of fractures are common in children with CKD. Newer imaging modalities such as high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography shows promise in assessing bone mineral density more comprehensively and predicting incident fractures. A lack of large-scale studies that provide a comprehensive assessment of bone histology and correlations with serum biomarkers has contributed to the absence of evidence-based guidelines and suboptimal management of CKD mineral bone disorder in children with CKD...

Chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is the most common complication in CKD patients. Although there is a consensus on treatment guidelines for CKD-MBD, it remains uncertain whether these treatment recommendations reflect actual practice. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the CKD-MBD medication trend in real-world practice. This was a retrospective and observational study using a 12-year period database transformed into a common data model from three tertiary university hospitals...
