Background Several studies have revealed the relationship between serum magnesium levels and vascular calcification in chronic kidney disease patients. Despite excellent predictability of abdominal aorta calcification for cardiovascular disease events, the relationship between serum magnesium levels and abdominal aorta calcification, as evaluated by quantitative methods, in pre-dialysis patients remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the abdominal aorta calcification volume using computerized tomography and its association with serum magnesium levels in pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease stage 5 patients. Methods This single-center cross-sectional study included 100 consecutive patients with pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease stage 5 between January 2016 and May 2020 at Aichi Medical University Hospital, Japan. The relationships between serum magnesium levels and the abdominal aorta calcification volume were assessed using multiple linear regression models after adjusting for clinically relevant factors. We also assessed clinical factors that affect serum magnesium levels. Results The mean serum magnesium level was 2.0 mg/dL (interquartile range, 1.8 to 2.3). Multivariate analyses revealed that a higher serum magnesium level (stand. β = -0.245, p = 0.010) was significantly associated with a reduced abdominal aorta calcification volume, and that a history of cardiovascular disease (stand. β = 0.3792, p < 0.001) and older age (stand. β = 0.278, p = 0.007) were significantly associated with an increased abdominal aorta calcification volume. Moreover, multivariate analysis showed that the use of proton pump inhibitor or potassium-competitive acid blocker was significantly associated with lower serum magnesium levels (stand. β = -0.246, p = 0.019). Conclusions The present study revealed that the higher Mg level was significantly associated with lower volume of abdominal aorta calcification in pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease stage 5 patients. Further studies should be undertaken to determine the appropriate magnesium level to suppress vascular calcification.

Abstract: Magnesium is a metal, one of the eight most abundant element in universe. Magnesium also is a mineral that responsible for bone metabolism control, neural transmission, cardiac excitability, neuromuscular conduction, muscular contraction, vasomotor, and blood pressure. In chronic kidney disease stage 4-5, compensation mechanism become inadequate that caused a hypermagnesemia. Objectives: This study aimed to know the picture of magnesium serum in non dialysis CKD stage 5 in Manado. Material Methods: This is a descriptive study, conducted by selecting 35 blood samples in Nephrology-Hypertension Polyclinic and IRINA of Interna of Prof. Dr. R.D Kandou Hospital and Teling Adventist Hospital. Result: There are 16 samples (45.7%) experience hypomagnesemia consisted of 8 home-care patient (22.9%) and 8 hospital-care patient (22.9%), 10 samples (28.6%) are in normal range consisted of 3 home-care patient (8.6%) and 7 hospital-care patient (20.0%), and 9 samples (25.7%) are experience hypermagnesemia consisted of 6 home-care patient (17.1%) and 3 hospital-care patient (8.6%) from total non dialysis CKD stage 5 samples result from laboratory examination. Conclusion: Patient with hypomagnesemia most frekuent than patient with hypermagnesemia.Keywords: magnesium, chronic kidney disease, non dialysisAbstrak: Magnesium merupakan logam yang masuk dalam delapan elemen paling melimpah di alam semesta. Magnesium juga merupakan mineral yang bertanggung jawab dalam pengaturan metabolisme tulang, transmisi saraf, eksitabilitas jantung, konduksi neuromuskular, kontraksi muscular, vasomotor, dan tekanan darah. Pada penyakit ginjal kronik stadium 4-5 mekanisme kompensasi ginjal menjadi inadekuat sehingga dapat menghasilkan hipermagnesemia. Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran kadar serum magnesium pada pasien PGK non dialisis stadium 5 di Manado. Metode Penelitian: Penelitian ini adalah penelitian yang bersifat deskriptif yang dilaksanakan dengan cara mengambil sampel darah di Poliklinik Nefrologi-Hipertensi dan IRINA bagian Penyakit Dalam RSUP Prof. DR. R. D. Kandou Manado dan RS Advent Teling sebanyak 35 sampel. Hasil: Tercatat 16 orang yang mengalami hipomagnesemia (45,7%) diantaranya 8 orang pasien rawat jalan (22,9%) dan 8 orang pasien rawat inap (22,9%), 10 orang dalam batas nilai normal (28,6%) diantaranya 3 orang pasien rawat jalan (8,6%) dan 7 orang pasien rawat inap (20,0%), serta 9 orang mengalami hipermagnesemia (25,7%) diantaranya 6 orang pasien rawat jalan (17,1%) dan 3 orang pasien rawat inap (8,6%) dari total jumlah pasien terdiagnosis dokter PGK stadium 5 non dialisis yang didapatkan dari hasil pemeriksaan laboratorium. Simpulan: Frekuensi pasien yang mengalami hipomagnesemia lebih banyak dibandingkan pasien hipermagnesemiaKata kunci: magnesium, penyakit ginjal kronik, non dialisis

Background Chronic kidney disease accelerates both atherosclerosis and arterial calcification. The aim of the present study was to explore whether maximal carotid plaque thickness (cPTmax) was increased in patients with chronic kidney disease compared to controls and associated with cardiovascular disease and severity of calcification in the carotid and coronary arteries. Methods The study group consisted of 200 patients with chronic kidney disease stage 3 from the Copenhagen Chronic Kidney Disease Cohort and 121 age- and sex-matched controls. cPTmax was assessed by ultrasound and arterial calcification by computed tomography scanning. Results Carotid plaques were present in 58% of patients (n = 115) compared with 40% of controls (n = 48), p = 0.002. Among participants with plaques, cPTmax (median, interquartile range) was significantly higher in patients compared with controls (1.9 (1.4–2.3) versus 1.5 (1.2–1.8) mm), p = 0.001. Cardiovascular disease was present in 9% of patients without plaques (n = 85), 23% of patients with cPTmax 1.0–1.9 mm (n = 69) and 35% of patients with cPTmax >1.9 mm (n = 46), p = 0.001. Carotid and coronary calcium scores >400 were present in 0% and 4%, respectively, of patients with no carotid plaques, in 19% and 24% of patients with cPTmax 1.0–1.9 mm, and in 48% and 53% of patients with cPTmax >1.9 mm, p<0.001. Conclusions This is the first study showing that cPTmax is increased in patients with chronic kidney disease stage 3 compared to controls and closely associated with prevalent cardiovascular disease and severity of calcification in both the carotid and coronary arteries.

Intradialytic hypertension is one of the complications of chronic kidney disease patients (CKD) stadium V undergoing routine hemodialysis. There is still no definite data on incidence of intradialytic hypertension in Indonesia. Therefore, it is important to do further research about the relationship between factors of intraialytic hypertension with incident intradialytic hypertension as preventionefforts morbidity and mortality in patients CKD stadium V undergo hemodialysis. One of the factors is quick of blood (QB). The purpose of this research is to know the connection between QB with intradialytic hypertension on patients PGK stadium V at RSD dr. Soebandi Jember. This research is a type of observational analytic study with cross sectional method which is implemented in the dialysis unit at RSD dr. Soebandi Jember in October 2017. Population and sample in this research are all patients who undergo PGK stadium V routine hemodialysis in RSD dr. Soebandi Jember at a number of 82samples. The data obtained were tested normalitasnya with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test with the results of the significance of 0.71, indicating the data is distributed normally. Pearson test generates the value of significance (p) 0.032 and strong relationship (r) 0.237 indicating that there is a meaningful relationship with the powerful relationship between weak QB with the incidence of hypertension in patients intradialisis CKD stadium V at RSD dr. Soebandi Jember. Keywords: CKD, intradialytic hypertension, quick of blood

Background: The majority of the patients with chronic kidney disease stage V on hemodialysis have been found to have hypertension and many studies have recommended that hypertension should be essentially controlled in these patients for better clinical outcome. But till now no study analyzing the relationship between antihypertensive medication and the demographics of the patient has been done, so with this objective in mind the present study was carried out. Aim and objectives were to analyse the types of antihypertensive being used in CKD stage V patients on hemodialysis and their relationship with the demographic variables.Methods: The present observational cross-sectional study was conducted in Sri Aurobindo Institute of Medical Sciences, Indore (M.P.) from 01 January 2018 to 31 March 2018 on patients with chronic kidney disease stage V on hemodialysis. The demographic variables evaluated were age, sex, basic disease and duration of dialysis. The relationship with type of antihypertensive being used and these demographic variables was calculated using Pearson Chi-square test. A p value of<0.05 was taken as statistically significant.Results: Diabetic nephropathy, CIN-CKD 5d, CGN-CKD 5d and hypertensive nephropathy were the commonest basic diseases in our study. Calcium channel blockers, beta blockers, ATRB, centrally acting antihypertensive, ACE inhibitors were the commonest antihypertensive used. Statistically significant relationship was seen between antihypertensive and basic disease (p<0.05).Conclusions: The study revealed that all the antihypertensive medications are prescribed on the basis of basic disease while other demographic variables do not play a vital role prescribing antihypertensive in patients with CKD stage V on haemodialysis. And the prescription of antihypertensive medications also matches with the actual clinical practice.
