Diop S, Legriel S, Ferré A. Assessment of phosphatemia at admission to the intensive care unit to predict mechanical ventilation among patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a retrospective cohort study. ANNALS OF TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE 2024; 12:50. [PMID: 38911553 PMCID: PMC11193571 DOI: 10.21037/atm-23-1650] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2023] [Accepted: 09/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/25/2024]
Abstract
Background Hypophosphatemia has been reported to impair diaphragmatic function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, little is known about the role of dysphosphatemia at admission [plasmatic phosphate concentration at intensive care unit (ICU) admission (T0-Ph)] to the ICU and respiratory outcomes among patients with severe acute COPD exacerbation. We aimed to assess the value of T0-Ph as a predictive factor of invasive mechanical ventilation (MV) during ICU stay. Methods We retrospectively included consecutive patients admitted to the ICU for a severe acute exacerbation of COPD between May 2015 and December 2018. Logistic multivariate regression analysis was performed to identify association between T0-Ph and the need for invasive MV during the ICU stay. Results We included 198 patients of whom 132 (67%) were male. The median age was 70 [interquartile range (IQR), 61-77] years. Nine (4.5%) patients died in the ICU. Median T0-Ph was significantly higher among patients requiring invasive MV as compared to non-intubated patients [1.23 (IQR, 1.07-1.41) and 1.09 (IQR, 0.91-1.27) mmol/L; P=0.005]. By multivariate analysis, pneumonia [odds ratio (OR) =6.42; 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.78-15.96; P<0.0001) and a history of intubation (OR =3.33; 95% CI: 0.97-11.19; P=0.05) were independently associated with the need for invasive MV, whereas T0-Ph was not (OR =1.75; 95% CI: 0.72-4.44; P=0.22). Conclusions T0-Ph was significantly higher in patients requiring invasive MV. However, T0-Ph was not associated with the need for invasive MV in multivariate analysis.

Abstract
Metabolic acidosis is a frequent complication in non-transplant chronic kidney disease (CKD) and after kidney transplantation. It occurs when net endogenous acid production exceeds net acid excretion. While nephron loss with reduced ammoniagenesis is the main cause of acid retention in non-transplant CKD patients, additional pathophysiological mechanisms are likely inflicted in kidney transplant recipients. Functional tubular damage by calcineurin inhibitors seems to play a key role causing renal tubular acidosis. Notably, experimental and clinical studies over the past decades have provided evidence that metabolic acidosis may not only be a consequence of CKD but also a driver of disease. In metabolic acidosis, activation of hormonal systems and the complement system resulting in fibrosis have been described. Further studies of changes in renal metabolism will likely contribute to a deeper understanding of the pathophysiology of metabolic acidosis in CKD. While alkali supplementation in case of reduced serum bicarbonate < 22 mmol/l has been endorsed by CKD guidelines for many years to slow renal functional decline, among other considerations, beneficial effects and thresholds for treatment have lately been under intense debate. This review article discusses this topic in light of the most recent results of trials assessing the efficacy of dietary and pharmacological interventions in CKD and kidney transplant patients.

Abstract
This study aims to determine the association between UpH (<5.5), Community Periodontal Index (CPI), and the number of remaining teeth-cumulative indicators of oral health-using data from the 7th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES, 2016-2018), which represents the Korean population. Data from 12,689 adults aged 19 years and older who had periodontal examinations were analyzed. Logistic regression analysis was performed after adjusting for demographic, health, and health-related behavioral factors as covariates to determine the association between UpH, CPI, and the number of remaining teeth. This study found that UpH (<5.5) was associated with CPI and the number of remaining teeth. For UpH (<5.5), the odds ratio for CPI (≥4 mm) was 1.19 times (95% CI: 1.06-1.33). The risk of tooth loss was 1.25 times (95% CI: 1.06-1.48) for those with 0-19 remaining teeth and 1.20 times (95% CI: 1.07-1.34) for those with 20-27 teeth. The results revealed an association between UpH, CPI, and the number of remaining teeth. However, further longitudinal research on UpH and oral status is necessary.

Ferric citrate for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia and iron deficiency anaemia in patients with NDD-CKD: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1285012. [PMID: 38515853 PMCID: PMC10955115 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1285012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2023] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 03/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: The application of ferric citrate therapy has yielded unexpected benefits in recent years for Chronic kidney disease patients suffering from hyperphosphatemia and iron deficiency -anaemia. Despite this, earlier research on the impact of ferric citrate on NDD-CKD has been contentious. Objective: The goal of the meta-analysis is to evaluate the evidence regarding the advantages and dangers of ferric citrate for the treatment of hyperphosphatemia and iron deficiency anaemia in NDD-CKD patients. Methods: Between the start of the study and June 2022, we searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, EBSCO, Scopus, Web of Science, Wan Fang Data, CNKI, and VIP databases for randomised controlled trials of iron citrate for hyperphosphatemia and anaemia in patients with NDD-CKD. For binary categorical data, risk ratios (OR) were employed, and for continuous variables, weighted mean differences The effect sizes for both count and measurement data were expressed using 95% confidence intervals Results: The meta-analysis includes eight trials with a total of 1281 NDD-CKD patients. The phosphorus-lowering effect of ferric citrate was greater compared to the control group (WMD, -0.55, 95% CI, -0.81 to -0.28; I2 = 86%, p < 0.001). Calcium (WMD, 0.092; 95% CI, -0.051 to 0.234; p > 0.05; I2 = 61.9%), PTH (WMD, -0.10; 95% CI, -0.44 to 0.23; I2 = 75%, p > 0.05) and iFGF23 (WMD, -7.62; 95% CI, -21.18 to 5.94; I2 = 20%, p > 0.05) levels were not statistically different after ferric citrate treatment compared to control treatment. Furthermore, ferric citrate increased iron reserves and haemoglobin. The ferric citrate group had considerably greater levels than the controls. Ferric citrate, on the other hand, may raise the risk of constipation, diarrhoea, and nausea. Conclusion: This meta-analysis found that ferric citrate had a beneficial effect in the treatment of NDD-CKD, particularly in reducing blood phosphorus levels when compared to a control intervention. It also shown that ferric citrate has a favourable effect on iron intake and anaemia management. In terms of safety, ferric citrate may increase the likelihood of gastrointestinal side effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the ageing population, issues with bone and joint health are highly prevalent. Both beneficial and potential risks of dairy products on bone and joint health are reported in epidemiological studies. Furthermore, the phosphorus (P) load from dairy could potentially lead to unfavorable changes in P metabolism. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of dairy intake on markers of bone and joint metabolism and P metabolism in an intervention study with high and low dairy intake. METHODS In a post hoc analysis of a randomized cross-over trial with overweight adults, the effect of a standardized high dairy intake [HDI (5-6 dairy portions per day) versus low dairy intake (LDI, ≤ 1 dairy portion/day)] for 6 weeks on markers of bone and joint health was assessed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays and electrochemiluminescence immunoassays. Markers indicative for cartilage breakdown, including urinary CTX-II, serum COMP and 4-hydroxyproline, and markers indicative for bone remodeling, such as serum CTX-I, PTH, 25(OH)D, osteocalcin, P1NP and FGF23, were investigated using linear mixed models. Furthermore, changes in P metabolism, including the main phosphate-regulating hormone FGF23 were explored. RESULTS This study was completed by 46 adults (57% female, age 59 ± 4 years, BMI 28 ± 2 kg/m2). Following HDI, markers such as urinary CTX-II excretion, COMP, 25(OH)D, PTH and CTX-I were significantly lower after HDI, as compared to LDI. For example, CTX-II excretion was 1688 ng/24 h at HDI, while it was 2050 ng/24 h at LDI (p < 0.001). Concurrently, P intake was higher at HDI than at LDI (2090 vs 1313 mg/day, p < 0.001). While plasma P levels did not differ (1.03 vs 1.04 mmol/L in LDI, p = 0.36), urinary P excretion was higher at HDI than at LDI (31 vs 28 mmol/L, p = 0.04). FGF23 levels tended to be higher at HDI than at LDI (76.3 vs. 72.9 RU/mL, p = 0.07). CONCLUSIONS HDI, as compared to LDI, reduced markers that are indicative for joint and bone resorption and bone turnover. No changes in P metabolism were observed. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRY This trial was registered at https://trialsearch.who.int/Trial2.aspx?TrialID=NTR4899 as NTR4899.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Chronic kidney disease is one of the leading causes of death worldwide today. Nutrition and nutrition-related factors have a very important role in both the prevention and management of the disease. Plant-based dietary practices are one of the promising approaches to chronic kidney disease. This review aims to examine the potential benefits and risks of plant-based diet models on symptoms and indices used in diet quality in chronic kidney disease. RECENT FINDINGS Recently, a growing body of evidence has shown that, unlike animal-based diets, diets rich in plant-based nutrients may play an active role in the incidence of chronic kidney disease in many ways and the management of common symptoms, such as metabolic acidosis, uremic toxicity, and hyperphosphatemia. Implementation of existing plant-based dietary patterns in patients with chronic kidney disease may increase the efficacy of the diet and improve patients' quality of life by expanding their food choices. While there are concerns about creatine deficiency, dietary adequacy, and accessibility regarding plant-based diets, available information is limited.

Abstract
Systemic acid-base status is primarily determined by the interplay of net acid production (NEAP) arising from metabolism of ingested food stuffs, buffering of NEAP in tissues, generation of bicarbonate by the kidney, and capture of any bicarbonate filtered by the kidney. In chronic kidney disease (CKD), acid retention may occur when dietary acid production is not balanced by bicarbonate generation by the diseased kidney. Hormones including aldosterone, angiotensin II, endothelin, PTH, glucocorticoids, insulin, thyroid hormone, and growth hormone can affect acid-base balance in different ways. The levels of some hormones such as aldosterone, angiotensin II and endothelin are increased with acid accumulation and contribute to an adaptive increase in renal acid excretion and bicarbonate generation. However, the persistent elevated levels of these hormones can damage the kidney and accelerate progression of CKD. Measures to slow the progression of CKD have included administration of medications which inhibit the production or action of deleterious hormones. However, since metabolic acidosis accompanying CKD stimulates the secretion of several of these hormones, treatment of CKD should also include administration of base to correct the metabolic acidosis.

Abstract
A variety of changes in mineral metabolism aiming to restore acid-base balance occur in acid loading and metabolic acidosis. Phosphate plays a key role in defense against metabolic acidosis, both as an intracellular and extracellular buffer, as well as in the renal excretion of excess acid in the form of urinary titratable acid. The skeleton acts as an extracellular buffer in states of metabolic acidosis, as the bone matrix demineralizes, leading to bone apatite dissolution and the release of phosphate, calcium, carbonate, and citrate into the circulation. The renal handling of calcium, phosphate and citrate is also affected, with resultant hypercalciuria, hyperphosphaturia and hypocitraturia.

Abstract
Mineral and bone disorders (MBD) are common in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), contributing to significant morbidity and mortality. For several decades, the first-line approach to controlling hyperparathyroidism in CKD was by exogenous calcium loading. Since the turn of the millennium, however, a growing awareness of vascular calcification risk has led to a paradigm shift in management and a move away from calcium-based phosphate binders. As a consequence, contemporary CKD patients may be at risk of a negative calcium balance, which, in turn, may compromise bone health, contributing to renal bone disease and increased fracture risk. A calcium intake below a certain threshold may be as problematic as a high intake, worsening the MBD syndrome of CKD, but is not addressed in current clinical practice guidelines. The CKD-MBD and European Renal Nutrition working groups of the European Renal Association (ERA), together with the CKD-MBD and Dialysis working groups of the European Society for Pediatric Nephrology (ESPN), developed key evidence points and clinical practice points on calcium management in children and adults with CKD across stages of disease. These were reviewed by a Delphi panel consisting of ERA and ESPN working groups members. The main clinical practice points include a suggested total calcium intake from diet and medications of 800-1000 mg/day and not exceeding 1500 mg/day to maintain a neutral calcium balance in adults with CKD. In children with CKD, total calcium intake should be kept within the age-appropriate normal range. These statements provide information and may assist in decision-making, but in the absence of high-level evidence must be carefully considered and adapted to individual patient needs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hyperphosphatemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients is positively associated with mortality. Ferric citrate is a potent phosphorus binder that lowers serum phosphorus level and improves iron metabolism. We compared its efficacy and safety with active drugs in Chinese CKD patients with hemodialysis. METHODS Chinese patients undergoing hemodialysis were randomized into two treatment groups in a 1:1 ratio, receiving either ferric citrate or sevelamer carbonate, respectively, for 12 weeks. Serum phosphorus levels, calcium concentration, and iron metabolism parameters were evaluated every 2 weeks. Frequency and severity of adverse events were recorded. RESULTS 217 (90.4%) patients completed the study with balanced demographic and baseline characteristics between two groups. Ferric citrate decreased the serum phosphorus level to 0.59 ± 0.54 mmol/L, comparable to 0.56 ± 0.62 mmol/L by sevelamer carbonate. There was no significant difference between two groups (p > 0.05) in the proportion of patients with serum phosphorus levels reaching the target range, the response rate to the study drug, and the changes of corrected serum calcium concentrations, and intact-PTH levels at the end of treatment. The change of iron metabolism indicators in the ferric citrate group was significantly higher than those in the sevelamer carbonate group. There are 47 (40.5%) patients in the ferric citrate group, and 26 (21.3%) patients in the sevelamer carbonate group experienced drug-related treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs); most were mild and tolerable. Common drug-related TEAEs were gastrointestinal disorders, including diarrhea (12.9 vs. 2.5%), fecal discoloration (14.7 vs. 0%), and constipation (1.7 vs. 7.4%) in ferric citrate and sevelamer carbonate group. CONCLUSION Ferric citrate capsules have good efficacy and safety in the control of hyperphosphatemia in adult patients with CKD undergoing hemodialysis. Efficacy is not inferior to sevelamer carbonate. The TEAEs were mostly mild and tolerated by the patients.

Abstract
Metabolic acidosis is a common complication in patients with chronic kidney disease that occurs when the daily nonvolatile acid load produced in metabolism cannot be excreted fully by the kidney. A reduction in urine net acid excretion coupled with a high nonvolatile acid load may play a role in its pathogenesis. Diet is important in generation of the nonvolatile acid load. Acids are produced from metabolism of dietary protein and from the endogenous production of organic anions from neutral precursors. Acids can be balanced by alkali precursors ingested in the diet in the form of combustible organic anions. These typically are reflected indirectly by the excess of mineral cations to mineral anions in a food or diet. These principles underscore widely used methods to estimate the nonvolatile acid load from dietary intake using formulas such as the net endogenous acid production equation and the potential renal acid load equation. Empiric data largely validate these paradigms with high net endogenous acid production and potential renal acid load contributed by foods such as protein, grains, and dairy, and low net endogenous acid production and potential renal acid load contributed by fruits and vegetables along with corresponding dietary patterns. Although further studies are needed to understand the health benefits of altering nonvolatile acid load via diet, this review provides a detailed assessment on our current understanding of the role of diet in chronic kidney disease-related acidosis, providing an updated resource for researchers and clinicians.

Unravelling the Complex Relationship between Diet and Nephrolithiasis: The Role of Nutrigenomics and Nutrigenetics. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14234961.

Abstract
Nephrolithiasis is an increasingly prevalent condition, especially in high income countries, and is associated with high morbidity. Extraordinary progress in genetics made the identification of genetic forms of nephrolithiasis possible. These genetic diseases are usually rare and do not account for the most common forms of nephrolithiasis that are the result of several factors such as environment, dietary habits, and predisposing genes. This knowledge has shaped what we classify as nephrolithiasis, a condition that is now recognized as systemic. How and to what extent all these factors interact with one another and end in kidney stone formation, growth, and recurrence is not completely understood. Two new research fields have recently been trying to give some answers: nutrigenomics and nutrigenetics. These fields have the aim of understanding the intricate diet/genome interface that influences gene expression regulation mainly through epigenetic mechanisms and results in specific medical conditions such as cancer, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular diseases. Epigenetics seems to play a crucial role and could represent the link between environmental factors, that we are constantly exposed to, and risk factors for nephrolithiasis. In this systematic review, we summarize all the available evidence of proven or hypothesized epigenetic mechanisms related to nephrolithiasis.

Oral Acid Load Down-Regulates Fibroblast Growth Factor 23. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14051041.

Abstract
Increased dietary acid load has a negative impact on health, particularly when renal function is compromised. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a bone-derived hormone that is elevated during renal failure. The relationship between metabolic acidosis and FGF23 remains unclear. To investigate the effect of dietary acid load on circulating levels of FGF23, rats with normal renal function and with a graded reduction in renal mass (1/2 Nx and 5/6 Nx) received oral NH4Cl for 1 month. Acid intake resulted in a consistent decrease of plasma FGF23 concentrations in all study groups when compared with their non-acidotic control: 239.3 ± 13.5 vs. 295.0 ± 15.8 pg/mL (intact), 346.4 ± 19.7 vs. 522.6 ± 29.3 pg/mL (1/2 Nx) and 988.0 ± 125.5 vs. 2549.4 ± 469.7 pg/mL (5/6 Nx). Acidosis also decreased plasma PTH in all groups, 96.5 ± 22.3 vs. 107.3 ± 19.1 pg/mL, 113.1 ± 17.3 vs. 185.8 ± 22.2 pg/mL and 504.9 ± 75.7 vs. 1255.4 ± 181.1 pg/mL. FGF23 showed a strong positive correlation with PTH (r = 0.877, p < 0.0001) and further studies demonstrated that acidosis did not influence plasma FGF23 concentrations in parathyroidectomized rats, 190.0 ± 31.6 vs. 215 ± 25.6 pg/mL. In conclusion, plasma concentrations of FGF23 are consistently decreased in rats with metabolic acidosis secondary to increased acid intake, both in animals with intact renal function and with decreased renal function. The in vivo effect of metabolic acidosis on FGF23 appears to be related to the simultaneous decrease in PTH.

Association of acidic urine pH with impaired renal function in primary gout patients: a Chinese population-based cross-sectional study. Arthritis Res Ther 2022; 24:32.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Patients with gout frequently have low urinary pH, which is associated with the nephrolithiasis. However, the specific distribution of urinary pH and potential relationship of acidic urine pH to broader manifestations of kidney disease in gout are still poorly understood.
Methods
A 2016–2020 population-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 3565 gout patients in the dedicated gout clinic of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University to investigate the association between low urinary pH and kidney disease. We studied patients that we defined to have “primary gout”, based on the absence of > stage 2 CKD. All subjects underwent 14 days of medication washout and 3-day standardized metabolic diet. We obtained general medical information, blood and urine biochemistries, and renal ultrasound examination on the day of the visit. The primary readouts were urine pH, eGFR, nephrolithiasis, renal cysts, microhematuria, and proteinuria. Patients were assigned into 5 subgroups (urine pH ≤5.0, 5.0 <pH≤ 5.5, 5.5 <pH< 6.2, 6.2 ≤pH≤ 6.9, and pH >6.9), aligning with the clinical significance of urine pH.
Results
Overall, the median urine pH and eGFR of all patients was 5.63 (IQR 5.37~6.09), and 98.32 (IQR 86.03~110.6), with acidic urine in 46.5% of patients. The prevalence of nephrolithiasis, microhematuria, and proteinuria were 16.9%, 49.5%, and 6.9%, respectively. By univariate analysis, eGFR was significantly associated with age, sex, duration of gout, tophus, body mass index, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, serum utare, hypertension, diabetes, and urine pH. On multivariable analysis, eGFR was associated with age, sex, diastolic blood pressure, serum uric acid, hypertension, diabetes, and urine pH. Acidic urine pH, especially urine pH < 5.0, was significantly associated with the prevalence of kidney disease, including > stage 1 CKD, nephrolithiasis, kidney cyst, and microhematuria. Patients with 6.2 ≤ urine pH ≤ 6.9 and SU ≤ 480 μmol/L had the highest eGFR with the lowest prevalence of nephrolithiasis, microhematuria, and proteinuria.
Conclusions
Approximately half of gout subjects had acidic urine pH. Urine pH < 5.0 was associated with significantly increased nephrolithiasis, renal cyst, microhematuria, and proteinuria. The results support prospective clinical investigation of urinary alkalinization in selected gout patients with acidic urine pH.

The Role of Diet in Bone and Mineral Metabolism and Secondary Hyperparathyroidism. Nutrients 2021; 13:nu13072328.

Abstract
Bone disorders are a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), obesity and gut malabsorption. Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is defined as an appropriate increase in parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion, driven by either reduced serum calcium or increased phosphate concentrations, due to an underlying condition. The available evidence on the effects of dietary advice on secondary hyperparathyroidism confirms the benefit of a diet characterized by decreased phosphate intake, avoiding low calcium and vitamin D consumption (recommended intakes 1000-1200 mg/day and 400-800 UI/day, respectively). In addition, low protein intake in CKD patients is associated with a better control of SHPT risk factors, although its strength in avoiding hyperphosphatemia and the resulting outcomes are debated, mostly for dialyzed patients. Ultimately, a consensus on the effect of dietary acid loads in the prevention of SHPT is still lacking. In conclusion, a reasonable approach for reducing the risk for secondary hyperparathyroidism is to individualize dietary manipulation based on existing risk factors and concomitant medical conditions. More studies are needed to evaluate long-term outcomes of a balanced diet on the management and prevention of secondary hyperparathyroidism in at-risk patients at.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Phosphate intake has increased in the last decades due to a higher consumption of processed foods. This higher intake is detrimental for patients with chronic kidney disease, increasing mortality and cardiovascular disease risk and accelerating kidney dysfunction. Whether a chronic high phosphate diet is also detrimental for the healthy population is still under debate. METHODS We fed healthy mature adult mice over a period of one year with either a high (1.2% w/w) or a standard (0.6% w/w) phosphate diet, and investigated the impact of a high phosphate diet on mineral homeostasis, kidney function and bone health. RESULTS The high phosphate diet increased plasma phosphate, parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcitriol levels, with no change in fibroblast growth factor 23 levels. Urinary phosphate, calcium and ammonium excretion were increased. Measured glomerular filtration rate was apparently unaffected, while blood urea was lower and urea clearance was higher in animals fed the high phosphate diet. No change was observed in plasma creatinine levels. Blood and urinary pH were more acidic paralleled by higher bone resorption observed in animals fed a high phosphate diet. Total and cortical bone mineral density was lower in animals fed a high phosphate diet and this effect is independent of the higher PTH levels observed. CONCLUSIONS A chronic high phosphate intake did not cause major renal alterations, but affected negatively bone health, increasing bone resorption and decreasing bone mineral density.

Abstract
Gadolinium-based contrast media (GBCM) toxicity in patients with kidney disease is a concern for the possible development of systemic nephrogenic fibrosis and possible renal complications. This review focuses on the pathological mechanisms underlying the potential kidney toxicity of gadolinium. Gadolinium, as a free compound (Gd3+), is highly toxic in humans because it competes with divalent calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) ions, interfering in some relevant biologic processes. Its toxicity is blunted by the complexing of Gd3+ with a carrier, allowing its use in magnetic resonance imaging. The binding reaction between gadolinium and a carrier is thermodynamically reversible. Consequently, under some conditions, gadolinium can be released in the interstitial space as a free Gd3+ compound with the possibility of toxicity. Other metals such as iron, copper, and calcium can interfere with the binding between gadolinium and its carrier because they compete for the same binding site. This process is known as transmetallation. In patients with kidney impairment, conditions such as low clearance of the Gd-carrier complex, acid-base derangements, and high serum phosphorous can increase the presence of free Gd3+, leading to a higher risk for toxicity.

Abstract
Hyperphosphatemia is common in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Often seen as the "silent killer" because of its dramatic effect on vascular calcifications, hyperphosphatemia explains, at least partly, the onset of the complex mineral and bone disorders associated with CKD (CKD-MBD), together with hypocalcemia and decreased 1-25(OH)2 vitamin D levels. The impact of CKD-MBD may be immediate with abnormalities of bone and mineral metabolism with secondary hyperparathyroidism and increased FGF23 levels, or delayed with poor growth, bone deformities, fractures, and vascular calcifications, leading to increased morbidity and mortality. The global management of CKD-MBD has been detailed in international guidelines for adults and children, however, with difficulties to obtain an agreement on the ideal PTH targets. The clinical management of hyperphosphatemia is a daily challenge for nephrologists and pediatric nephrologists, notably because of the phosphate overload in occidental diets that is mainly due to the phosphate "hidden" in food additives. The management begins with a dietary restriction of phosphate intake, and is followed by the use of calcium-based and non-calcium-based phosphate binders, and/or the intensification of dialysis. The objective of this review is to provide an overview of the pathophysiology of hyperphosphatemia in CKD, with a focus on its deleterious effects and a description of the clinical management of hyperphosphatemia in a more global setting of CKD-MBD.

Abstract
Traditional dietary recommendations for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) focus on the quantity of nutrients consumed. Without appropriate dietary counselling, these restrictions can result in a low intake of fruits and vegetables and a lack of diversity in the diet. Plant nutrients and plant-based diets could have beneficial effects in patients with CKD: increased fibre intake shifts the gut microbiota towards reduced production of uraemic toxins; plant fats, particularly olive oil, have anti-atherogenic effects; plant anions might mitigate metabolic acidosis and slow CKD progression; and as plant phosphorus has a lower bioavailability than animal phosphorus, plant-based diets might enable better control of hyperphosphataemia. Current evidence suggests that promoting the adoption of plant-based diets has few risks but potential benefits for the primary prevention of CKD, as well as for delaying progression in patients with CKD G3-5. These diets might also help to manage and prevent some of the symptoms and metabolic complications of CKD. We suggest that restriction of plant foods as a strategy to prevent hyperkalaemia or undernutrition should be individualized to avoid depriving patients with CKD of these potential beneficial effects of plant-based diets. However, research is needed to address knowledge gaps, particularly regarding the relevance and extent of diet-induced hyperkalaemia in patients undergoing dialysis.

Abstract
A large body of work in animals and human beings supports the hypothesis that metabolic acidosis has a deleterious effect on the progression of kidney disease. Alkali therapy, whether pharmacologically or through dietary intervention, appears to slow CKD progression, but an appropriately powered randomized controlled trial with a low risk of bias is required to reach a more definitive conclusion. Recent work on urinary ammonium excretion has shown that the development of prognostic tools related to acidosis is not straightforward, and that application of urine markers such as ammonium may require more nuance than would be predicted based on our understanding of the pathophysiology.

Abstract
Phosphate metabolism is an evolving area of basic and clinical research. In the past 15 years, knowledge on disturbances of phosphate homoeostasis has expanded, as has the discovery of new targeted therapies. Hypophosphataemia might be the biochemical finding in several diseases, and its clinical evaluation should initially focus on the assessment of pathophysiological mechanisms leading to low serum phosphate concentrations. Clinical consequences of hypophosphataemia can involve multiple organ systems and vary depending on several factors, the most important being the underlying disorder. This Review focuses on the approach to patients with hypophosphataemia and how underlying pathophysiological mechanisms should be understood in the evaluation of differential diagnosis. We define an algorithm for the assessment of hypophosphataemia and review the most up-to-date literature on specific therapies. Continuous research in this area will result in a better understanding and management of patients with hypophosphataemia.

[PMID: 31862183 DOI: 10.1016/j.nefro.2019.09.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2019] [Revised: 07/13/2019] [Accepted: 09/16/2019] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Metabolic acidosis (MA) is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and is associated with numerous adverse effects, which is why its correction is highly recommended. Oral sodium bicarbonate is the current treatment of choice. OBJECTIVES To describe the prevalence of MA in advanced CKD patients and to determine the clinical and biochemical characteristics associated with its successful correction. MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective, observational cohort study in adult patients with CKD stage 4-5. The inclusion criteria were: not being treated with alkali therapy at the time of inclusion, and to have at least three consecutive glomerular filtration rate (GFR) measurements and biochemical parameters during a minimum follow-up period of 3 months. Incident patients with serum bicarbonate<22 mEq/l were included in the follow-up study and treated with oral sodium bicarbonate. Correction was considered successful when more than half of the samples and the mean bicarbonate levels during individual follow-up were≥22 mEq/l. RESULTS The study group consisted of 969 patients (age 65±14 years, 507 males) with a mean GFR of 14.8±4.5ml/min/1.73 m2. At baseline, 530 patients (55%) had serum bicarbonate<22mEq/l. They were treated with sodium bicarbonate and followed for 15 months. Satisfactory correction of MA was only achieved in 133 patients (25%). By multivariate logistic regression analysis, the main characteristics of patients with adequate control of MA were: age (OR=1.03; 95% CI 1.01 - 1.05), baseline GFR (OR=1.07; 1.02 - 1.12), and treatment with proton-pump inhibitors (OR=1.61; 95% CI 1.06 - 2.44). Patients who achieved successful correction of MA showed slower CKD progression (-1.67±3.71 vs -4.36±4.56ml/min/1.73 m2/year, P<.0001), and lower average serum potassium concentration (5.1±0.5 vs 5.3±0.5, P<.0001) than those who did not. However, there were no differences in the hospitalisation or mortality rate. CONCLUSION MA is a common complication of advanced CKD but difficult to manage with current therapies. Due to the significant potential benefit of controlling MA, new, more effective therapies should be further researched.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global public health burden. Dialysis is not only costly but may not be readily available in developing countries. Even in highly developed nations, many patients may prefer to defer or avoid dialysis. Thus, alternative options to dialysis therapy or to complement dialysis are needed urgently and are important objectives in CKD management that could have huge clinical and economic implications globally. The role of nutritional therapy as a strategy to slow CKD progression and uremia was discussed as early as the late 19th and early 20th century, but was only seriously explored in the 1970s. There is a revival of interest recently owing to encouraging data as well as the increase of precision medicine with an emphasis on a personalized approach to CKD management. Although part of the explanation for the inconclusive data may relate to variations in study design and dietary prescription, diversity in genetic make-up, variations in the non-nutritional management of CKD, intra-individual variations in responses to dietary and nondietary treatment, psychosocial factors, and dietary compliance issues, these all may contribute to the heterogeneous data and responses. This brings in the evolving concept of precision medicine, in which disease management should be tailored and individualized according not only to clinical manifestations but also to the genetic make-up and biologic responses to therapy, which may vary depending on genetic composition. Precision nutrition management also should take into account patient demographics, social, psychological, education, and compliance factors, which all may influence the therapeutic needs and responses to the nutritional therapy prescribed. In this review, we provide a novel concept of precision medicine in nutritional management in end-stage kidney disease with a transition to dialysis and propose how this may be the way forward for nutritional therapy in the CKD population.

Abstract
The Italian nephrology has a long tradition and experience in the field of dietetic-nutritional therapy (DNT), which is an important component in the conservative management of the patient suffering from a chronic kidney disease, which precedes and integrates the pharmacological therapies. The objectives of DNT include the maintenance of an optimal nutritional status, the prevention and/or correction of signs, symptoms and complications of chronic renal failure and, possibly, the delay in starting of dialysis. The DNT includes modulation of protein intake, adequacy of caloric intake, control of sodium and potassium intake, and reduction of phosphorus intake. For all dietary-nutritional therapies, and in particular those aimed at the patient with chronic renal failure, the problem of patient adherence to the dietetic-nutritional scheme is a key element for the success and safety of the DNT and it can be favored by an interdisciplinary and multi-professional approach of information, education, dietary prescription and follow-up. This consensus document, which defines twenty essential points of the nutritional approach to patients with advanced chronic renal failure, has been written, discussed and shared by the Italian nephrologists together with representatives of dietitians (ANDID) and patients (ANED).

Abstract
The metabolism of a typical Western diet generates 50-100 mEq of acid (H+) per day, which must be excreted in the urine for the systemic acid-base to remain in balance. The 2 major mechanisms that are responsible for the renal elimination of daily acid under normal conditions are ammonium (NH4+) excretion and titratable acidity. In the presence of systemic acidosis, ammonium excretion is intensified and becomes the crucial mechanism for the elimination of acid. The impairment in NH4+ excretion is therefore associated with reduced acid excretion, which causes excess accumulation of acid in the body and consequently results in metabolic acidosis. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with the impairment in acid excretion and precipitation of metabolic acidosis, which has an adverse effect on the progression of CKD. Recent studies suggest that the progressive decline in renal ammonium excretion in CKD is an important determinant of the ensuing systemic metabolic acidosis and is an independent factor for predicting the worsening of kidney function. While these studies have been primarily performed in hypertensive individuals with CKD, a closer look at renal NH4+ excretion in non-hypertensive individuals with CKD is warranted to ascertain its role in the progression of kidney disease.
