[PMID: 38954039 DOI: 10.1007/s00467-024-06436-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2024] [Revised: 06/04/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024]
Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) encompasses diverse conditions such as congenital anomalies, glomerulonephritis, and hereditary nephropathies, necessitating individualized nutritional interventions. Early detection is pivotal due to the heightened risk of adverse outcomes, including compromised growth and increased healthcare costs. The nutritional assessment in pediatric CKD employs a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach, considering disease-specific factors, growth metrics, and dietary habits. The prevalence of malnutrition, as identified through diverse tools and guidelines, underscores the necessity for regular and vigilant monitoring. Nutritional management strategies seek equilibrium in calorie intake, protein requirements, and electrolyte considerations. Maintaining a well-balanced nutritional intake is crucial for preventing systemic complications and preserving the remaining kidney function. The nuanced landscape of enteral nutrition, inclusive of gastrostomy placement, warrants consideration in scenarios requiring prolonged support, with an emphasis on minimizing risks for optimized outcomes. In conclusion, the ongoing challenge of managing nutrition in pediatric CKD necessitates continuous assessment and adaptation. This review underscores the significance of tailored dietary approaches, not only to foster growth and prevent complications but also to enhance the overall quality of life for children grappling with CKD.

Nutrients 2024; 16:1061. [PMID: 38613094 PMCID: PMC11013480 DOI: 10.3390/nu16071061] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2024] [Revised: 03/31/2024] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Fabry disease (FD) is caused by mutations in the galactosidase alpha (GLA) gene which lead to the accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (Gb-3). Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) and oral chaperone therapy are the current pharmacological treatments for this condition. However, in the literature, there is a growing emphasis on exploring non-pharmacological therapeutic strategies to improve the quality of life of patients with FD. In particular, the nutritional approach to FD has been marginally addressed in the scientific literature, although specific dietary interventions may be useful for the management of nephropathy and gastrointestinal complications, which are often present in patients with FD. Especially in cases of confirmed diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a low-FODMAP diet can represent an effective approach to improving intestinal manifestations. Furthermore, it is known that some food components, such as polyphenols, may be able to modulate some pathogenetic mechanisms underlying the disease, such as inflammation and oxidative stress. Therefore, the use of healthy dietary patterns should be encouraged in this patient group. Sports practice can be useful for patients with multi-organ involvement, particularly in cardiovascular, renal, and neurological aspects. Therefore, the aim of this review is to summarize current knowledge on the role of nutrition and physical activity in FD patients.

Bin Zarah A, Andrade JM. Elevated Inflammation and Poor Diet Quality Associated with Lower eGFR in United States Adults: An NHANES 2015-2018 Analysis. Nutrients 2024; 16:528. [PMID: 38398852 PMCID: PMC10891552 DOI: 10.3390/nu16040528] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2023] [Revised: 01/31/2024] [Accepted: 02/12/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Chronic kidney disease is prevalent within the United States likely due to dietary habits. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the high-sensitivity c-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and diet quality (DQ) and their effect on the eGFR. A cross-sectional secondary data analysis study was conducted among adults (n = 6230) using NHANES 2015-2018 data. DQ was determined by the Healthy Eating Index-2015 (HEI-2015). Multivariable linear regressions were conducted based on eGFR (≥90 or <60 mL/min/1.73 m2) after adjustments for age, race/ethnicity, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, and kidney disease awareness. All analyses were performed in SAS version 9.4 with a statistical significance of p < 0.05. Results showed that participants who had an eGFR of <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 were older and had a higher prevalence of hypertension and diabetes and had higher hs-CRP compared to participants with an eGFR ≥ 90 (p < 0.005). Of participants with an eGFR < 60, 27% reported that they were aware they had kidney disease. Regardless of the eGFR at baseline, there was a negative interaction effect on the DQ scores and hs-CRP on the eGFR (p < 0.05). Independently, for participants with an eGFR < 60, their DQ scores had a positive significant relationship on their eGFR (p = 0.03), whereas their hs-CRP had a negative significant relationship on thier eGFR (p < 0.001). For participants with an eGFR < 60, age, hypertension, and kidney disease awareness influenced this relationship (p < 0.001). Overall, low DQ and elevated hs-CRP contributed to a reduction in kidney function. Efforts to improve dietary intake and strategies to reduce inflammation and improve kidney function are necessary.

Abstract
Nutrition is one of the most influential environmental factors in both taxonomical shifts in gut microbiota as well as in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Emerging evidence has shown that the effects of nutrition on both these parameters is not mutually exclusive and that changes in gut microbiota and related metabolites such as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) may influence systemic inflammation and signaling pathways that contribute to pathophysiological processes associated with T2DM. With this background, our review highlights the effects of macronutrients, carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids, as well as micronutrients, vitamins, and minerals, on T2DM, specifically through their alterations in gut microbiota and the metabolites they produce. Additionally, we describe the influences of common food groups, which incorporate varying combinations of these macronutrients and micronutrients, on both microbiota and metabolic parameters in the context of diabetes mellitus. Overall, nutrition is one of the first line modifiable therapies in the management of T2DM and a better understanding of the mechanisms by which gut microbiota influence its pathophysiology provides opportunities for optimizing dietary interventions.

Abstract
Hyperuricemia is a well-known risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD). Little is known about whether a vegetarian diet is associated with a lower risk of CKD in patients with hyperuricemia. From 5 September 2005, to 31 December 2016, we retrospectively included clinically stable patients with hyperuricemia who received health check-ups at Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital. All participants completed a dietary habits questionnaire to determine whether they were omnivorous, lacto-ovo vegetarian, or vegan. CKD was defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or the presence of proteinuria. A total of 3618 patients with hyperuricemia were recruited for this cross-sectional study, consisting of 225 vegans, 509 lacto-ovo vegetarians, and 2884 omnivores. After adjusting for age and sex, vegans had a significantly lower odds ratio (OR) of CKD than omnivores (OR, 0.62; p = 0.006). The OR of CKD remained significantly lower in vegans after adjusting for additional confounders (OR, 0.69; p = 0.04). Additionally, age (per year OR, 1.06; p < 0.001), diabetes mellitus (OR, 2.12; p < 0.001), hypertension (OR, 1.73; p < 0.001), obesity (OR, 1.24; p = 0.02), smoking (OR, 2.05; p < 0.001), and very high uric acid levels (OR, 2.08; p < 0.001) were independent risk factors for CKD in patients with hyperuricemia. Moreover, structural equation modeling revealed that a vegan diet was associated with a lower OR of CKD (OR, 0.69; p < 0.05). A vegan diet is associated with a 31% lower risk of CKD in patients with hyperuricemia. A vegan diet may be beneficial in reducing the occurrence of CKD in patients with hyperuricemia.

Abstract
Plant-based protein sources as a sustainable alternative to animal sources are highly relevant for food and dietary supplements industries. Plant proteins are becoming popular as an eco-friendly source for meeting global protein requirements due to their importance in nutrition, management of metabolic diseases, biological activities, functionality in processed food products and their low carbon footprints. We applied biochemical protein extraction protocol and prepared protein concentrate from an underutilised cereal, foxtail millet, with plausible applications in foods and supplements. Herein efforts were utilised to obtain foxtail millet protein (FMP) concentrate by means of standardisation of processes of extraction cum isolation. The conditions including flour to solvent ratio, extraction-precipitation pH, dissolution time, etc. were optimised to significantly improve protein yield and recovery. The FMP concentrate prepared was also analysed for nutritional composition, bioactive compounds, amino acid content and digestion properties in comparison to packaged brown rice protein concentrate. The protein concentrate prepared was found to have high digestibility, rich in essential amino acids with good phenolic and flavonoid content, thereby making it a potential sensory and antioxidant additive for food/pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
Background
Proteinuria after kidney transplantation (KTx) has been a frequent problem due to several factors, high protein intake being one of them. Individualized nutritional intervention in the late post-KTx period can promote the improvement or the reduction of risks associated with the parameters of evaluation of kidney function, body composition, and quality of life in individuals submitted to KTx.
Methods
This is a single-center, randomized and stratified clinical trial. The study will be conducted in a university hospital in northeastern Brazil with 174 individuals aged ≥19 years submitted to KTx and followed up for 12 months. Assessments will take place at 3-month intervals (T0, T3, T6, T9, and T12). The patients will be allocated to intervention and control groups by random allocation. The intervention group will receive individualized nutritional interventions with normoproteic diets (1.0 g/kg) after 60 days of KTx whereas the controls will receive the standard nutritional guidance for the post-KTx period. The primary efficacy variable is the change from baseline in log proteinuria assessed with the urinary albumin/creatinine ratio. Secondary efficacy variables include body composition, anthropometry, quality of life assessment and physical activity, lipid profile and glycemic control. Ninety-two subjects per group will afford 70% power to detect a difference of 25% between groups in log proteinuria. Primary efficacy analysis will be on the modified intention-to-treat population with between-groups comparison of the change from baseline in log proteinuria by analysis of covariance.
Discussion
The study will assess the effects of an individualized nutritional intervention on proteinuria 12 months after KTx.

Abstract
In the existing stages of diabetic kidney disease (DKD), the first stage of DKD is called the preclinical stage, characterized by glomerular hyperfiltration, an abnormally elevated glomerular filtration rate. Glomerular hyperfiltration is an independent risk factor for accelerated deterioration of renal function and progression of nephropathy, which is associated with a high risk for metabolic and cardiovascular disease. It is imperative to understand hyperfiltration and identify potential treatments to delay DKD progress. This paper summarizes the current mechanisms of hyperfiltration in early DKD. We pay close attention to the effect of glucose reabsorption mediated by sodium-glucose cotransporters and renal growth on hyperfiltration in DKD patients, as well as the mechanisms of nitric oxide and adenosine actions on renal afferent arterioles via tubuloglomerular feedback. Furthermore, we also focus on the contribution of the atrial natriuretic peptide, cyclooxygenase, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, and endothelin on hyperfiltration. Proposing potential treatments based on these mechanisms may offer new therapeutic opportunities to reduce the renal burden in this population.
