Abstract

Purpose

The complexity of chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD–MBD) led to many preclinical and clinical trials. The role of sclerostin in renal pathophysiology remained unresolved, and question whether sclerostin is related to cardiovascular (CV) outcome in patients with CKD is still open. Our aim was to evaluate the possible association between serum sclerostin levels and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) in CV pathophysiology through various CKD stages.

Methods

Eighty-eight patients in various CKD stages were involved in this analysis. CKD-EPI (Chronic kidney disease Epidemiology Collaboration Equation) was used to estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). CKD–MBD parameters were determined in patients’ serum after an overnight fasting. Early atherosclerosis was assessed by ultrasound measurement of CIMT. In order to assess the association between serum sclerostin with other CKD–MBD parameters and CIMT, correlation and regression analyses were performed.

Results

Mean age was 62.84 ± 11.37 years and 56% were female. Mean values of serum sclerostin were 1.67 ± 0.44 ng/ml. Negative correlation was noticed with serum calcium and phosphate product (CaxP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), serum creatinine, and HbA1c level. There was no association with FGF23, CIMT, and carotid atherosclerotic plaque occurence. Serum levels of sclerostin were significantly higher in female patients compared to males (p < 0.001).

Conclusion

Advanced CKD showed a trend of declining sclerostin levels and significantly higher CIMT levels. Serum sclerostin was not associated with CIMT. More studies are needed in order to reveal the exact role of sclerostin in the complexity of CKD–MBD pathophysiological mechanism.

Reizdarmsyndrom: Diäten wirksamer als Medikamente

29.04.2024 Reizdarmsyndrom Nachrichten

Bei Reizdarmsyndrom scheinen Diäten, wie etwa die FODMAP-arme oder die kohlenhydratreduzierte Ernährung, effektiver als eine medikamentöse Therapie zu sein. Das hat eine Studie aus Schweden ergeben, die die drei Therapieoptionen im direkten Vergleich analysierte.

Wenn unter einer medikamentösen Hochdrucktherapie der diastolische Blutdruck in den Keller geht, steigt das Risiko für schwere kardiovaskuläre Ereignisse: Darauf deutet eine Sekundäranalyse der SPRINT-Studie hin.

Bei schweren Reaktionen auf Insektenstiche empfiehlt sich eine spezifische Immuntherapie

Insektenstiche sind bei Erwachsenen die häufigsten Auslöser einer Anaphylaxie. Einen wirksamen Schutz vor schweren anaphylaktischen Reaktionen bietet die allergenspezifische Immuntherapie. Jedoch kommt sie noch viel zu selten zum Einsatz.
