Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a serious public health problem. Patients with CKD have a high cardiovascular risk and the high concentration of Aldosterone (Aldo) contributes to this risk. The physical exercise in other pathological conditions decreased to Aldo, thus, could also decrease to Aldo in the DRC. Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) has a poor prognosis for these patients and it…
Several studies indicate that Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) patients give a high cardiovascular risk. The CKD has an intrinsic relationship with hypertension and cardiomyopathy that is characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and interstitial fibrosis, important predictors of cardiovascular mortality in CKD. Moreover, reversal of LVH is associated with increased life expectancy …

Among the blood pressure (BP) measurement modalities ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) is the good standard, a method able to measure BP both during wakefulness and sleep. The reduction in blood pressure during sleep in relation to pressure during weakness is called nocturnal dipping, and the presence of this factor is indicative of a good prognosis. There are few studies that a…
Rationale. After the industrial revolution, the population had greater access to salt, which led to an increase in consumption to levels above the recommended. This excessive sodium intake increases the risk of chronic diseases, namely: high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease. Chronic kidney disease has become a pandemic in recent years, with an alarming inc…
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a common hereditary disorder characterized by the formation of cysts in the renal parenchyma. Cystic expansion leads to compression of adjacent nephrons, as well as an inflammatory process that results in progression to renal fibrosis, with increasing loss of nephrons, culminating in decreased renal function and leading patients to d…
