Chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder: conclusions from a Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) Controversies Conference.
Kidney Int
January 2025
Laboratório de Fisiopatologia Renal (LIM 16), Nephrology Department, Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo (HCFMUSP), Universidade de São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil. Electronic address:
In 2017, Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) published a Clinical Practice Guideline Update for the Diagnosis, Evaluation, Prevention, and Treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral and Bone Disorder (CKD-MBD). Since then, new lines of evidence have been published related to evaluating disordered mineral metabolism and bone quality and turnover, identifying and inhibiting vascular calcification, targeting vitamin D levels, and regulating parathyroid hormone. For an in-depth consideration of the new insights, in October 2023, KDIGO held a Controversies Conference on CKD-MBD: Progress and Knowledge Gaps Toward Personalizing Care.

Department of Nephrology, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.
Background: Meteorin-like (Metrnl) is a newly identified secreted protein that plays important roles in metabolic and inflammation-related diseases. Our study aimed to evaluate serum Metrnl levels and establish their relationship with vascular calcification (VC) in hemodialysis (HD) patients.
Methods: In total, 313 HD patients and 41 healthy individuals, as controls, were included.
PI3K/AKT/mTOR Activation is Associated with Malignant Severity and Poorer Prognosis in Parathyroid Carcinomas.
J Clin Endocrinol Metab
January 2025
Department of Endocrine and Metabolic Diseases, Shanghai Institute of Endocrine and Metabolic Diseases, Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.
Context And Objective: Parathyroid carcinoma (PCa) is a rare endocrine neoplasm known for its high recurrence. The specific molecular properties influencing the prognosis of PCa remain largely elusive. The present study was designed to explore the significance of PI3K/AKT/mTOR activation in PCa.

Department of General, Visceral, Thoracic, Vascular and Transplant Surgery, University Medical Center Rostock, Rostock, Germany.
Background: Primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) is the third most common endocrine disease, affecting predominantly postmenopausal women. About 85% of cases are caused by a solitary parathyroid adenoma which leads to a hypersecretion of the parathyroid hormone (PTH) and consequently to elevated serum calcium concentrations. Parathyroidectomy is the only curative treatment.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) is an effective treatment for patients with end-stage renal disease. Although MHD can prolong the survival of patients, their quality of life is lower and the fatality rate is higher. This work analyzed the factors related to the autogenous arteriovenous fistula (AVF)-like expansion of non-diabetic MHD patients by vascular ultrasound (VUS).
