Nutritional disorders are caused by the inadequate intake of the three major nutrients—proteins, fats, and carbohydrates—as well as vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Minerals are composed of various elements, including small-amount elements and trace elements, which are present in the human body in very small quantities lower than that of iron. In dialysis and predialysis patients, zinc, manganese, and selenium are the three major elements that are significantly depleted as compared to normal subjects; these deficiencies are sometimes symptomatic. Zinc deficiency is manifest as anemia, taste abnormality, and delayed wound healing, while selenium deficiency is associated with impaired cardiac function and immunocompromised condition. Zinc has multiple functions, since various enzymes, including DNA polymerase and RNA polymerase, need zinc as a cofactor, while selenium is a component of selenoproteins, including glutathione peroxidase and thioredoxin reductases, which are major antioxidative stress enzymes. These elements can only be supplemented exogenously and contribute to the sustainable QOL of dialysis patients. On the other hand, as regards other trace elements, including copper, chromium, manganese, lead, arsenic, etc., the association of their deficiency or intoxication with various involvements of dialysis patients were investigated, although all investigations were performed in cross-sectional studies or observational studies. Therefore, the supplementation of these elements is inconclusive, given the scarcity of other intervention studies. More conclusive studies are endorsed for the establishment of proper supplementation strategies.","PeriodicalId":74038,"journal":{"name":"Kidney and dialysis","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44224293","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prior studies have established a relationship between BC and VO2max in healthy individuals over 35 years of age. However, this relationship is poorly understood in chronic disease populations. The focus of the study was to assess the relationship between BC, cardiorespiratory fitness, and chronic kidney disease (CKD). A cross-sectional analysis was conducted among 24 (9 males and 15 females) individuals diagnosed with mid-spectrum CKD (stages G2–G3b) who completed a health screening, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan, and underwent a VO2max exercise test. Normality tests, descriptive statistics, Pearson’s correlations, t-tests, and ANOVAs were conducted in SAS v.9.4. The average percent body fat (%BF) was 36.28 ± 8.47%, LBM was 109.4 ± 29.1 lb, BMC was 2308.7 ± 735.1 g, and VO2max was 20.13 ± 5.04 mL/kg/min−1. BC was able to predict CRF via VO2max (R2 = 0.721, p < 0.001) and CKD stage (R2 = 0.390, p < 0.017). Positive correlations were observed in LBM (r = 0.750, p < 0.0018) and BMC (r = 0.647, p < 0.001), and negative correlations were observed with FM (r = −0.384, p < 0.032) and %BF (r = −0.802, p < 0.0001). BC was able to predict both CRF and CKD stages, with significant associations observed between BC, VO2max, and CKD stage. The progression of the CKD stage was associated with lower LBM, BMC, and VO2max values, indicating a graded effect of BC on CRF and CKD stage.","PeriodicalId":74038,"journal":{"name":"Kidney and dialysis","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43952576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the prevalence of hyperkalemia, current real-world data suggest that serum potassium levels are not effectively managed in clinical practice. The potential benefit of potassium binders in reducing the risk of death has not been thoroughly investigated. Therefore, this retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the potential impact of potassium binders on mortality risk in patients with CKD by analyzing electronic medical records. The study included 1689 patients with CKD and hyperkalemia (serum potassium level > 5.0 mEq/L), who visited Kawasaki Medical School Hospital between January 2014 and December 2018. The patients were divided into two groups: those without CPS (calcium polystyrene sulphonate) treatment (CPS_OFF) and those with CPS treatment (CPS_ON). The results showed that the incidence of death was significantly higher in the CPS_OFF group than in the CPS_ON group (22.3% vs. 19.6%, p < 0.001). After propensity score matching, the CPS_ON group had a higher survival rate than the CPS_OFF group (log-rank test, p = 0.020). These results suggest that potassium binders may reduce the risk of death in patients with CKD and hyperkalemia. We hope that the results of this cohort study will be confirmed in future RCTs.","PeriodicalId":74038,"journal":{"name":"Kidney and dialysis","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46539571","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The affected individuals suffer from various psychosocial, nutritional, and metabolic challenges due to organ failure, which affects their quality of life. The etiology remains poorly understood, and various risk factors, which include various environmental and occupational hazards, have been implicated in its development. The recent discovery of lysosomal proximal tubulopathy has reignited interest in its pathogenesis. Along with the representative feature of chronic interstitial nephritis, changes suggestive of tubular injury have also been reported. It is suggested to use the term “chronic tubulointerstitial nephropathy of agricultural community” instead of chronic interstitial nephritis of the agricultural communities. Chronic tubulointerstitial nephropathy in agricultural communities is a slowly progressive disease that initially does not cause any symptoms in patients and most patients have a delayed onset of symptoms. Several diagnostic criteria have been introduced over the past years and one introduced by the Ministry of Health of Sri Lanka is widely used. The management of this chronic illness is no different from other causes of chronic interstitial nephritis and our focus should be on implementing various preventive strategies to reduce its incidence in agricultural communities and protect the health and well-being of agricultural workers. By disseminating knowledge about chronic tubulointerstitial nephropathy in agricultural communities, we can contribute to the development of evidence-based interventions to reduce the burden of the disease on affected communities. Moreover, we would like to sensitize physicians to this entity to increase awareness and identify potential endemic areas in various agricultural communities.","PeriodicalId":74038,"journal":{"name":"Kidney and dialysis","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42369835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, physical activity levels have consistently remained poor across all stages of CKD. Exercise interventions, including aerobic and resistance training, and lifestyle interventions promoting physical activity, have been shown to improve a multitude of clinical endpoints and factors important to patients; however, despite the evidence, the provision of physical activity in clinical practice is still inadequate. The usefulness of any study hinges on the adequacy and clinical relevance of the outcomes and outcome measures used. Inconsistent reporting and wide disparities in outcome use across studies limit evidence synthesis to help guide clinical practice. The kidney exercise and physical activity field has been particularly prone to inconsistent outcome reporting. To ensure research is relevant and able to influence clinical practice and future research, we need to ensure the use (and reporting) of standardized, relevant outcome measures. Core outcome sets (COS) have been widely developed across many chronic conditions, yet these COS have not been tailored to physical activity and exercise in CKD. Outcomes in clinical research need to be relevant to the intervention being employed. From this perspective, we summarize the importance that standardizing outcomes and outcome measures may have in relation to physical activity and exercise interventions for people living with kidney disease.","PeriodicalId":74038,"journal":{"name":"Kidney and dialysis","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41381531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gene Ontology (GO) and KEGG pathway analysis were performed to analyze potential target genes corresponding to the differentially expressed miRNAs (DE-miRNAs). Relationships between hub genes and DE-miRNAs were analyzed with STRING and Cytoscape. We identified 234 DE-miRNAs 3, 6, and 12 days after gentamycin treatment (p < 0.05). Top 10 up- and down-regulated candidate target genes of DE-miRNAs were predicted by overlapping TargetScan and miRanda results). GO and KEGG analyses for DE-miRNAs demonstrated that the DE-miRNAs target genes are mainly involved in kidney injury-related pathways, such as the insulin signaling pathway, oxytocin signaling pathway, and hedgehog signaling pathway. The network of miRNA-hub genes suggests that miR-452, miR-106a, and 106b participate in regulating the largest number of hub genes. We evaluated the miRNA signature via a canine model built by gentamycin-caused acute kidney injury.

These include altered L-carnitine homeostasis, mitochondrial dysfunctions, and abnormalities in fatty acid metabolism. L-carnitine is essential for fatty acid metabolism and proper mitochondrial function. Deficiency in kidney disease and dialysis is caused by a reduction in endogenous renal synthesis, impaired fatty acid metabolism, a lower intake due to dietary restrictions, and nonselective clearance by the dialysis procedure. Free carnitine levels <40 µmol/L in dialysis patients can lead to dialysis-related complications, such as anemia that is hyporesponsive to erythropoietin therapy, intradialytic hypotension, cardiovascular disease, and skeletal muscle dysfunction manifested as muscle weakness and fatigue. L-carnitine deficiency is also seen in acute kidney injury (AKI) resulting from trauma and/or ischemia, drugs such as cisplatin, and from infections such as covid. A persistent state of L-carnitine deficiency can further damage kidneys and lead to multi-organ failure. Carnitine supplementation has been shown to be safe and effective in improving kidney disease-related complications resulting from drug-induced toxicity, trauma, ischemic injury, infection, and dialysis, by replenishing adequate carnitine levels and rebalancing carnitine homeostasis. In this review, we will examine the protective role of L-carnitine in reducing cellular oxidative damage and maintaining mitochondrial function together with the clinical evidence for its potential use in the management of kidney disease.","PeriodicalId":74038,"journal":{"name":"Kidney and dialysis","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42032238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
