Objective: Hyperphosphatemia is a major contributor to poor outcomes among cases of chronic kidney disease. Considering that foods with high protein content are major sources of phosphorus, a more suitable dietary phosphorus measure is the phosphorus to protein ratio. However, Mexican phosphorus to protein ratio tables do not exist. This article aims to estimate the phosphorus to protein ratio in foods commonly used by the Mexican population and to establish its usefulness in the selection of foods for patients with chronic kidney disease.

Methods: Six tables with the phosphorus to protein ratio were developed from different data sources concerning Mexican animal food composition.

Results: Egg whites have the best phosphorus to protein ratio. Partially skimmed milk has the lowest ratio among dairy products. Dairy products have high phosphorus to protein ratio variability. Red meat products have a ratio with an average of 9 mg/g. The phosphorus to protein ratio varies considerably for seafood (1.2-38.3 mg/g).

Conclusions: The phosphorus to protein ratio could be a good strategy to choose each food during chronic kidney disease dietary treatment for the Mexican population.

Background: 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).

This study investigates the nutritional and anti-nutrient profiles of extrudates produced from seven formulations of pearl millet and Bambara groundnut flour in seven different ratios: 20:80, 30:70, 40:60, 50:50, 60:40, 70:30, and 80:20, with 100% pearl millet and 100% Bambara groundnut extrudates used as controls. The extrudates were processed using a twin screw extruder and analyzed for their nutritional and anti-nutritional properties. The findings revealed a rising pattern in the content of fiber, moisture, protein, ash and fat as the substitution of Bambara groundnut increased in the extrudate.

Background: Calcification of the radial artery is one of the main causes of anastomotic stenosis in autogenous arteriovenous fistulas in uremic patients. However, the pathogenesis of calcification is still unknown. This study attempted to screen and validate the risk factors for vascular calcification in patients with uremia.

Dendrimers are a wide range of nanoparticles with desirable properties that can be used in many areas of medicine. However, little is known about their potential use in wound healing. This study examined the properties of phosphorus dendrimers that were built on a cyclotriphosphazene core and pyrrolidinium (DPP) or piperidinium (DPH) terminated groups, to be used as potential factors that support wound healing ().
