Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a worldwide public health problem. Patients with CKD have a number of disorders in the organism, and the presence of oxidative stress and systemic inflammation in these patients is the subject of numerous studies. Chronic inflammation joined with oxidative stress contributes to the development of numerous complications: accelerated atherosclerosis process and cardiovascular disease, emergence of Type 2 diabetes mellitus, development of malnutrition, anaemia, hyperparathyroidism, and so forth, affecting the prognosis and quality of life of patients with CKD. In this review we presented the potential role of the myeloperoxidase enzyme in the production of reactive/chlorinating intermediates and their role in oxidative damage to biomolecules in the body of patients with chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease. In addition, we discussed the role of modified lipoprotein particles under the influence of prooxidant MPO intermediates in the development of endothelial changes and cardiovascular complications in renal failure.

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a worldwide public health problem. It is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease and is associated with increased mortality from cardiovascular complications. The tight interactions between redox imbalance and the development of DKD are becoming increasingly evident. Numerous cascades, including the polyol and hexosamine pathways have been implicated in the oxidative stress of diabetes patients. However, the precise molecular mechanism by which oxidative stress affects the progression of DKD remains to be elucidated. Given the limited therapeutic options for DKD, it is essential to understand how oxidants and antioxidants are controlled in diabetes and how oxidative stress impacts the progression of renal damage. This review aims to provide an overview of the current status of knowledge regarding the pathological roles of oxidative stress in DKD. Finally, we summarize recent therapeutic approaches to preventing DKD with a focus on the anti-oxidative effects of newly developed anti-hyperglycemic agents.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a growing health problem with increasing incidence. The annual mortality of end-stage renal disease patients is about 9%, which is 10–20 fold higher than the general population, approximately 50% of these deaths are due to cardiovascular (CV) disease. CV risk factors, such as diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia, are strongly associated with poor outcome. Many other nontraditional risk factors such as inflammation, infection, oxidative stress, anemia, and malnutrition are also present. In this review we will focus on the role of oxidative stress in chronic kidney disease.

Background. Erythropoietin deficiency and anemia occur in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and may be treated with Erythropoietin Stimulating Agents (ESAs). The optimal hemoglobin, in non-End Stage Renal Disease CKD, is controversial.Methods. We review three recent randomized trials in anemia in CKD: CHOIR, CREATE, and TREAT.Results. CHOIR (N=1432) was terminated early with more frequent death and cardiovascular outcomes in the higher Hb group (HR 1.34: 95% C.I. 1.03–1.74,P=.03). CREATE (N=603) showed no difference in primary cardiovascular endpoints. Stroke was more common in the higher Hb group (HR 1.92; 95% C.I. 1.38–2.68;P<.001) in TREAT (N=4038).Conclusions. There is no benefit to an Hb outside the 10–12 g/dL range in this population. To avoid transfusions and improve Quality of Life, ESAs should be used cautiously, especially in patients with Diabetes, CKD, risk factors for stroke, and ESA resistance.

Increased serum levels of uric acid have been associated with the onset and development of chronic kidney disease (CKD), cardiovascular disease, and mortality, through several molecular pathogenetic mechanisms, such as inflammation and oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is present even in the early stages of CKD, progresses parallelly with the deterioration of kidney function, and is even more exacerbated in end-stage renal disease patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. Although acting in the plasma as an antioxidant, once uric acid enters the intracellular environment; it behaves as a powerful pro-oxidant. Exogenous intake of antioxidants has been repeatedly shown to prevent inflammation, atherosclerosis and oxidative stress in CKD patients. Moreover, certain antioxidants have been proposed to exert uric acid-lowering properties. This review aims to present the available data regarding the effects of antioxidant supplements on both oxidative stress and uric acid serum levels, in a population particularly susceptible to oxidative damage such as CKD patients.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become a global public health problem because of its high prevalence and the accompanying increase in the risk of end-stage renal disease, cardiovascular disease, and premature death. At present there is a number of experimental and clinical data that show that one of the important mechanisms of the pathogenesis of CKD is a violation of the blood coagulation system (hemostasis) both locally in the kidneys and with the capture of the microcirculatory channel of other organs, therefore an important task for specialists in the  nephrology, as well as doctors of other specialties is  understanding  the functioning of the system of hemostasis in normal and in various kidney diseases and the correction of this pathology with drugs. There are several types of haemostasis disorders that may occur in CKD: disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome (DIC), arterial and venous thrombosis and bleeding. In this review, we tried to determine the place of the DIC in the development and progress of the CKD and to assess the prospects for further research.

BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the most severe complications of diabetes mellitus (DM), this determines the importance of the study of epidemiological characteristics of the disease. AIMS: To assess the epidemiological characteristics of CKD in adult DM patients with type 1 (T1), 2 (T2) in Russian Federation in 201316. METHODS: We have used the database of the Russian Federal Diabetes register, 81st regions included in online register. Indicators were estimated per 10,000 adult DM patients (18years). RESULTS: In 2016, the CKD frequency registration was T1 23%, T2 6.9% with marked interregional differences 1.5-49.9%, 0.623.5%, respectively. The CKD prevalence in dynamics 20132016 was 2171.42303.0 in T1 and 512.687.2 in T2. The incidence of new CKD cases increased 2 times in T1 (215.5 vs 104.2), and 3.7 times in T2 (190.4 vs 51.8). The analysis of distribution by CKD stages by KDIGO indicates the increase in the proportion of patients with low and moderate cardiovascular risk and end stage renal disease (ESRD) (with the initial stages of CKD, C1/2 A1) - 12.046.8% in T1; 10.050.4% in T2. The proportion of patients with a very high risk (stages C4/5 C3aA3 and C3bA2-3) progressively decreases: 13.46.7% in T1, 11.34.4% in T2. We observed relation between the CKD prevalence and DM duration. CKD develops in 5.1% patients if T15 years and in 48.0% if T130years; in T2 3.5% and 20.3%, respectively. The average age of CKD onset in T1 increased for 4,3yr (36,140,2), in T2 for 2,4yr (64,466,8), DM duration until CKD development increased in T1 11.814.2yr, in T2 7.68.2yr. CONCLUSIONS: There is a significant improvement in the quality of CKD diagnostics at the earlier stages, older age and a longer DM duration before CKD onset in both types while we observed the increasing trends in CKD prevalence in Russian Federation in the dynamics of 2013-2016. Advances in the management of patients with DM in recent years do not reduce the risk of CKD, but give us a delay in its development. The marked interregional differences frequency of registration of CKD might indicate some remaining problems in verification in a number of regions where the standard for mandatory assessment of albuminuria and glomerular filtration rate not implemented.

The issues of diuretic therapy in patients with chronic kidney disease, pharmacokinetics of diuretics, the problem of diuretic resistance, the tactics of using thiazides and loop diuretics in patients with various stages of chronic kidney disease, according to the recommendations of the National Kidney Foundation Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative are discussed in the article. Particular attention is paid to the prescription of this group of drugs to patients with end stage renal disease, as well as those undergoing renal replacement therapy (hemodialysis).Diuretics play an important role in the management of patients with chronic kidney disease with the development of hypertension and an increased extracellular fluid volume. In case of impaired renal function leading place is given to loop diuretics. Their combination with thiazide diuretics can increase the diuretic effect. The results of clinical trials assessing the effectiveness of the use of diuretics during decline of residual renal function are provided. It is reported about the effect of potassium-sparing diuretics on the incidence of cardiovascular complications, the development of hyperkalemia in patients undergoing dialysis treatment. The importance of continuation of intensive study about the possibility of antagonists of mineralocorticoid receptors usage, in particular the spironolactone, eplerenone, and finerenone in order to reduce cardiovascular complications and mortality, is indicated.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become a global public health problem because of its high prevalence and the accompanying increase in the risk of end-stage renal disease, cardiovascular disease, and premature death. The role of uric acid (UA) in the pathogenesis and progression of CKD remains controversial. Although many evidence-based studies have suggested that UA itself may harm patients with CKD by increasing inflammation and CKD progression, the issue is still a matter of discussions. In this review we try to clarify what is hyperuricemia – cause of CKD, compensation, coincidence, consequence of CKD or it is only an epiphenomenon, and to evaluate current evidence of different types of targeted hypouricemic therapy effectiveness. So, to treat or not to treat?
