A low-protein diet (LPD) has become an important way to delay the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and to delay the need for dialysis. A review of the literature reveals the low-protein diet's influence on the course of chronic kidney disease. An artificial low-protein food, wheat starch, for example, can not only increase the high-quality protein intake ratio, but can ensure adequate energy intake on a low-protein diet while meeting the nutritional needs of the body, effectively reducing the burden on the damaged kidneys. The purpose of this review is to provide a reference for the clinical implementation of diet and nutrition therapy in patients with chronic kidney disease.

Aging is a risk factor for several chronic conditions, including intervertebral disc degeneration and associated back pain. Disc pathologies include loss of reticular-shaped nucleus pulposus cells, disorganization of annulus fibrosus lamellae, reduced disc height, and increased disc bulging. Sonic hedgehog, cytokeratin 19, and extracellular matrix proteins are markers of healthy disc.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is expected to become the fifth leading cause of death globally by 2040. Cardiovascular disease (CVD), particularly heart failure (HF), is a severe complication in CKD patients on hemodialysis. This study aimed to develop a nomogram to predict the risk of heart failure hospitalization in hemodialysis patients, providing a valuable tool for clinical decision-making.

Objective: To analyze the independent associations of the Kidney Failure Risk Equation (KFRE) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 3-5 in China and evaluate their predictive values for ESRD.

Patients And Methods: A total of 716 patients with CKD stages 3-5 at the time of the initial renal medicine referral were retrospectively enrolled, and the study outcome was the observed incidence of ESRD at 2 years after the initial referral. Baseline characteristics were collected, and relevant laboratory indexes, including neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), were detected.

Indoxyl Sulfate and Its Potential Role in Mineralocorticoid Receptor Transactivation in Chronic Kidney Disease.

Cureus

December 2024

Department of Endocrinology, Metabolism, Rheumatology and Nephrology, Faculty of Medicine, Oita University, Yufu, JPN.

Background: The uremic toxin indoxyl sulfate (IS) is an important factor in chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. Inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system and add-on therapy with mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonists can help reduce proteinuria and suppress CKD progression. However, the association between IS and MR activation remains unknown.
