Bone disease is one of the most challenging complications in patients with chronic kidney disease. Today, it is considered to be part of a complex systemic disorder manifested by disturbances of mineral metabolism and vascular calcifications called chronic kidney disease – mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD). The term renal osteodystrophy is reserved to define the specific bone lesion in CKD-MBD, whose spectrum ranges from high turnover to low turnover disease. Phosphate retention, decreased serum calcium, and 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D synthesis are involved in the pathogenesis of high bone turnover. However, the various therapeutic approaches (calcium supplements, phosphate binders, and vitamin D metabolites, among others), the renal replacement modality (hemodialysis or continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis), and the types of patients to whom dialysis is offered (more patients who are diabetic or older, or both) may influence the evolution of the bone disorder. As a result, recent studies have reported a greater prevalence of adynamic forms of renal osteodystrophy, especially in diabetic and peritoneal dialysis patients. The present article reviews, for patients treated with peritoneal dialysis, the pathophysiologic mechanisms involved in the evolution and perpetuation of this bone disease and the therapeutic modalities for treating and preventing adynamic bone.

Abstract Background and Aims The mineral bone disorder is an essential problem in chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is an independent modifiable risk factor for renal damage progression and CKD related mortality. Therefore, it is important to treat chronic kidney disease mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) according to international guidelines. Data on the management of mineral bone disorders in predialysis patients is scarce. We aimed to investigate the proportion of CKD-MBD patients reaching targets suggested by the updated 2017 KDIGO guidelines. Method We performed a multicenter cross-sectional study. We recruited consecutive adult (>18 years of age) CKD 3-5 patients who were on regular nephrology outpatient clinic follow up. Patients who have GFR loss over 30% in the last six months, patients with malignancy, and decreased life expectancy due to severe comorbid disease and patients on renal replacement therapy were excluded. Data were collected in two-time points: one during the recruitment (second data point) and one, three to six months prior to the current visit (first data point). Persistent laboratory abnormalities were defined by out of normal range values in both time points. Therapeutic inertia was calculated for hyperphosphatemia. It was defined as a lack of using phosphate binders despite hyperphosphatemia. Results We examined a total of 213 patients for 3 different nephrology outpatient clinics. Of these patients, 49.5 % were male, with a mean age of 64,9 ± 12,0 years. 51.7 % of the patients were diabetic, 78 % were hypertensive, and 20.1 % had a history of coronary artery disease. Laboratory values related to MBD are shown in Table 1. KDIGO guideline targets were not reached in 14.8%, 18.4%, 59.0%, 71.0% patients regarding Ca, P, PTH, and vitamin D in the first visit. The targets were not reached in 15.0%, 19,2%, 61,2%, 81% patients regarding Ca, P, PTH, and vitamin D in the second visit. Persistence of out of target values were observed in 5.8%, 9.9%, 49.2% and 65.4% of the patients for Ca,P, PTH and Vitamin D respectively. The prevalence of therapeutic inertia for hyperphosphatemia was 34,4 % in the second visit Conclusion Regarding KDIGO guidelines, MBD is not optimally managed in predialysis CKD patients. Clinicians should have an active attitude regarding the correction of MBD even at the earlier stages of CKD.

Purpose The purpose of this paper was to review the literature concerning the treatment of chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) in the elderly peritoneal dialysis (PD) patient. Results Chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder is a major problem in the elderly PD patient, with its associated increased fracture risk, vascular calcification, and accelerated mortality fracture risk. Peritoneal dialysis, however, bears a lower risk than hemodialysis (HD). The approach to CKD-MBD prophylaxis and treatment in the elderly PD patient is similar to other CKD patients, with some important differences. Avoidance of hypercalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and hyperparathyroidism is important, as in other CKD groups, and is generally easier to attain. Calcium-free phosphate binders are recommended for normocalcemic and hypercalcemic patients. Normalization of vitamin D levels to > 75 nmol/L (> 30 pg/L) and low-dose active vitamin D therapy is recommended for all patients. Hyperparathryoidism is to be avoided by using active vitamin D and cinacalcet. Particular attention should be paid to treating protein malnutrition. Fracture prophylaxis (exercise, use of walkers, dwelling modifications) are important. Hypomagnesemia is common in PD and can be treated with magnesium supplements. Vitamin K deficiency is also common and has been identified as a cause of vascular calcification. Accordingly, warfarin treatment for this age group is problematic. Conclusion While treatment principles are similar to other dialysis patient groups, physicians should be aware of the special problems of the elderly group.

Management of chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) can be difficult in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). This review aims to explain why the control of disturbed calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone and vitamin D metabolism is important in CKD patients. The available means to control these parameters include diet, phosphate binders, native Vitamin D, active Vitamin D derivatives and calcimimetics. However, no single measure is not enough and concerted efforts give the best result. Ibrahim Cardiac Med J 2012; 2(2): 37-40

Сardiovascular disease (СVD) is the most common complication of chronic kidney disease (СKD). In patients with the earlier stages of CKD, the risk of death from CVD greatly exceeds the risk of progression to end-stage renal disease. In recent years, accumulated data suggest that chronic kidney disease — mineral and bone disorders (CKD-MBD) are strongly associated with cardiovascular events and mortality. Among cardiovascular damage in CKD, both, the progressive cardiac remodeling and vascular calcifi cation, contribute immensely, and lead to an urgently high cardiovascular mortality in patients with CKD. Clarifi cation of CKD progression mechanisms and possible early markers of CVD has led to interest in studying the identifi ed factors such as fi broblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23), Klotho and sclerostin in recent years. Results of studies show that disorders in the system of FGF-23–Klotho–sclerostin correlate with the frequency and severity of hypertension, cardiac remodeling, vascular calcifi cation, anaemia, malnutrition, infl ammation, and strongly aggravate cardiovascular risk in CKD. This review represents an analysis of the available data showing the potential association of СVD with established (phosphate, parathyroid hormone (PTH), Vitamin D) and newer (FGF-23, Klotho, sclerostin) СKD-MBD biomarkers. In addition, it has been shown that renoprotective therapy, including renin-angiotensin blockers, low-protein diet with amino/keto acid supplementation, phosphate binders, erythropoiesis stimulators, vitamin D metabolites used to reach the target levels of blood pressure, serum phosphorus, haemoglobin, PTH and nutritional status disorders, can aff ect CKD-MBD biomarkers and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events in CKD patients.

ObjectivesInsight in the prescribing quality for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in secondary care is limited. The aim of this study is to assess the prescribing quality in secondary care patients with CKD stages 3–5 and possible differences in quality between CKD stages.DesignThis was a retrospective cohort study.SettingData were collected at two university (n=569 and n=845) and one non-university nephrology outpatient clinic (n=1718) in the Netherlands.ParticipantsBetween March 2015 and August 2016, data were collected from patients with stages 3a–5 CKD seen at the clinics. Blood pressure measurements, laboratory measurements and prescription data were extracted from medical records. For each prescribing quality indicator, patients with incomplete data required for calculation were excluded.Outcome measuresPotentially appropriate prescribing of antihypertensives, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors, statins, phosphate binders and potentially inappropriate prescribing according to prevailing guidelines was assessed using prescribing quality indicators. Χ2or Fisher’s exact tests were used to test for differences in prescribing quality.ResultsRAAS inhibitors alone or in combination with diuretics (57% or 52%, respectively) and statins (42%) were prescribed less often than phosphate binders (72%) or antihypertensives (94%) when indicated. Active vitamin D was relatively often prescribed when potentially not indicated (19%). Patients with high CKD stages were less likely to receive RAAS inhibitors but more likely to receive statins when indicated than stage 3 CKD patients. They also received more active vitamin D and erythropoietin-stimulating agents when potentially not indicated.ConclusionsPriority areas for improvement of prescribing in CKD outpatients include potential underprescribing of RAAS inhibitors and statins, and potential overprescribing of active vitamin D. CKD stage should be taken into account when assessing prescribing quality.
