Aim: To examine the specific features of development of cardiac valvular diseases, biochemical changes in the blood composition, and changes in the density of bone tissue in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) treated with programmed hemodialysis.
Materials And Methods: 118 patients with CRF (Group 1 patients (n = 69) aged 18-40 years and Group 2 patients (n = 49) aged 55-73 years) were examined.
Results: Mitral valvular prolapse or disease mainly developed in Group 1 patients having profound phophorous and calcium metabolic changes and significantly elevated concentrations of blood parathyroid hormone; developed aortic valvular disease and calcium salt-impregnated cardiac tissues were observed in Group 2 patients.
Conclusion: The revealed regularities occur in chronic renal failure regulated by programmed hemodialysis and they are risk factors for chronic heart failure in elderly patients in particular.

Background: Insulin resistance often occurs in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) owing to mineral and bone metabolism disorders. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-23 and soluble klotho (s-KL) play crucial roles in linking CKD with mineral and bone metabolism.
Objective: This study aimed to examine the relationship between insulin resistance and FGF-23 and s-KL in patients with non-diabetic pre-dialysis patients with CKD.

Despite the relevance of kidney transplantation, the supply of organs and the process for inclusion in its waiting list still represent obstacles. This study aimed to analyze the performance of dialysis centers in referring patients for pre-kidney transplant evaluation and inclusion in the waiting list of incident dialysis patients from 2015 to 2019 in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. This retrospective cohort study sampled 23,297 records of patients who underwent dialysis therapy in public or philanthropic institutions or who had their treatment funded by the Brazilian Unified National Health System in private clinics.

Renal fibrosis is a common pathological process in various chronic kidney diseases. The accumulation of senescent renal tubular epithelial cells (TECs) in renal tissues plays an important role in the development of renal fibrosis. Eliminating senescent TECs has been proven to effectively reduce renal fibrosis.

Background: Tranexamic acid is an anti-fibrinolytic agent routinely used during hip and knee joint replacement surgery to minimize bleeding. Chronic kidney disease is a common chronic health problem seen among adults requiring major arthroplasty surgery. Tranexamic acid is renally cleared and may accumulate in chronic kidney disease.
