Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in non-dialytic phase who needs to start dialysis are submitted to metabolic and hemodynamic stresses. There is also hypercatabolism related to dialytic treatment, inflammation, increased oxidative stress, overhidratyon, loss of nutrients and proteins in the dialysate, uremia with consequent reduction of appetite and acidosis with possibility of …
Despite the scientific and technological advances seen in renal replacement therapy, also observed high mortality in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD). Cardiovascular diseases particularly ischemic in nature, are associated with atherosclerosis, but closely related to the uremic condition, coursing with vascular calcification influenced by disturbances in the metabolism …
Rationale: The bone tissue is highly metabolic and increasingly recognized as a key player in pathways of energy control. The obesity-related hormone leptin acts on bone by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis, increased bone mass and induce transcription and secretion of fibroblast growth factor (FGF23). The actions of leptin on bone are mediated by specific receptor OBRb. In chronic kidney dis…
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who start dialysis undergo metabolic and hemodynamic stresses, hypercatabolism related to dialysis treatment, inflammation, among others. In addition, CKD can also have a negative impact on patients' functional capacity, aggravating the loss of function and muscle mass. Thus, these patients are vulnerable and have an increased risk of protein-ene…
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a clinical syndrome that is the slow loss, progressive and irreversible renal functions (regulatory, endocrine and excretory) and is considered one of the major public health problems in the world. This loss leads to a number of disorders resulting in the accumulation of toxic substances not eliminated in the urine and inadequate concentration of solutes. A…
