AbstractMultiple works have studied possible associations between human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles and end stage renal disease (ESRD) showing, however, contradictory and inconsistent results. Here, we revisit the association between ESRD and HLA antigens, comparing HLA polymorphism (at HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, -DQB1 and DQA1 loci) in ESRD patients (n=497) and controls (n=672). Our data identified several HLA alleles that displayed a significant positive or negative association with ESRD. We also determined whether heterozygosity or homozygosity of the ESRD-associated HLA alleles at different loci could modify the prevalence of the disease. Few HLA allele combinations displayed significant associations with ESRD among which HLA-A*3–HLA-A*26 combination showed the highest strength of association (OR= 4.488, P≤ 0.05) with ESRD. Interestingly, the age of ESRD onset was not affected by HLA allele combinations at different loci. We also performed an extensive literature analysis to determine whether the association of HLA to ESRD can be similar across different ethnic groups. Our analysis showed at least for certain alleles, HLA-A*11, HLA-DRB1*11, and HLA-DRB1*4, a significant association of HLA to ESRD in different ethnic groups. The findings of our study will help in determining possible protective or susceptible roles of various HLA alleles in ESRD.

Background. Genetic studies of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), including those of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes, have been reported in several populations but have not yet been evaluated in Indonesia. Some studies have reported that these genes had a substantial role in ESRD. This study aims to analyze the association between HLA genes and ESRD within the Indonesian community. Method. A retrospective study to investigate HLA class I and II alleles to find out the distribution of HLA-A, -B, -C, -DPB1, -DQB1, and -DRB1 in renal transplant recipients and to ascertain their role in susceptibility to ESRD was performed on totally 149 subjects, consisting of 69 ESRD patients and 80 healthy controls. HLA typing was determined using Luminex techniques. The allele and haplotype frequencies were compared between ESRD patients and controls. Result. High-frequency alleles were HLA-A ∗ 24 (43.6%), B ∗ 15 (38.2%), C ∗ 08 (30.8%), DRB1 ∗ 12 (47.3%), DQB1 ∗ 03 (50.6%), and DPB1 ∗ 13 (22.5%). HLA-A ∗ 24 p = 0.01 and HLA-B ∗ 35 p = 0.02 were associated with a protective effect, with OR 0.537 (95%CI 0.34–0.86) and 0.316 (95%CI 0.11–0.88), respectively. There were some two-locus haplotypes associated with susceptibility to ESRD, such as B ∗ 15-DRB1 ∗ 12, B ∗ 13-DRB1 ∗ 15, A ∗ 02-B ∗ 15, A ∗ 02-C ∗ 08, and B ∗ 13-DQB1 ∗ 05. HLA-A ∗ 02-B ∗ 15-DRB1 ∗ 12 and A ∗ 24-B ∗ 13-DRB1 ∗ 15 appear to be associated with susceptibility to ESRD. Conclusion. The allele groups of HLA-A ∗ 24 and HLA-B ∗ 35 are associated with protection from ESRD. Meanwhile, HLA-B ∗ 13-DRB1 ∗ 15 and A ∗ 24-B ∗ 13-DRB1 ∗ 15 are the most frequent HLAs associated with ESRD in two-locus and three-locus haplotype, respectively.

Kidney transplantation (KT) is considered an optimal treatment strategy for end-stage renal disease. But human leukocyte antigen-sensitized, ABO-incompatible and antibody-mediated rejection might be the alarming hurdles in KT. Therapeutic plasma exchange is the mainstay of the antibody reduction therapy for reducing autoantibody more effectively. Even in the treatment for highly sensitized patients, it has played an indispensable role. However, clinicians should tailor therapies to individual patient’s needs and multimodal treatment will bring better outcomes. Early diagnosis and precise treatment would reduce morbidity, mortality, and economic costs.

Management of early renal failure helps in the reduction or prevention of end-stage renal disease. The monitoring of renal function is discussed, and the chapter includes a table that shows commonly used methods for monitoring. Risk factors for chronic renal failure include stroke and cardiac disease. Risk factors for renal disease progression are diabetes mellitus, hypertension, proteinuria, smoking, protein intake, and hyperlipidemia. Complications of chronic renal failure that are addressed include sodium and water imbalance, potassium imbalance, acidosis, calcium and phosphorus imbalance, and anemia. There is also a section that discusses the case for early referral to a nephrologist. Tables present the equations used to estimate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR); stages of chronic kidney disease and the appropriate steps in their management; risk factors for chronic kidney disease in which the testing of proteinuria and estimation of GFR are indicated; appropriate diet for patients who have chronic kidney disease; and guidelines for diagnosing and treating anemia resulting from chronic kidney disease. An algorithm outlines the steps in management of calcium and phosphate in patients with kidney disease. This review contains 3 figures, 10 tables and 50 references Key Words End-stage renal disease, chronic kidney disease, glomerular filtration rate, Modification of Diet in Renal Disease, Proteinuric renal disease, Hyperuricemia

Abstract Background Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection with an incidence of 14.9 cases per 100 000 persons in the USA in 2011. Untreated syphilis may remain quiescent for years but can also result in clinical sequelae, including neurosyphilis. End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients may be at risk for syphilis due to a higher incidence of risk factors for the disease, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Despite the presence of these risk factors, the incidence of syphilis in the ESRD population has not been reported. To address this issue, we investigated the incidence and risk factors for syphilis in the ESRD population using the United States Renal Data System (USRDS). Methods This study analyzed incident ESRD patients from 2004 to 2010. Based on International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision codes for syphilis, we determined the incidence and risk factors for syphilis following an inpatient diagnosis. Generalized linear modeling was used to examine the relative risk (RR) for the disease when controlling for demographic and other clinical risk factors. Results A total of 383 diagnoses of syphilis were identified after screening 759 066 patients. The 8-year incidence of any type of syphilis was 50.45 cases per 100 000 person-years. Other unspecified syphilis (29.77 cases per 100 000 person-years) and neurosyphilis (10.93 cases per 100 000 person-years) were the most common diagnoses. The greatest incidence was found on the East and West Coasts. Patients with the disease were younger and more likely to be black and non-Hispanic. In the final model, the adjusted RR for syphilis was significantly increased with HIV (7.61), hepatitis C (3.57), herpes simplex (2.06) and hepatitis B (1.75). Conclusions The incidence of syphilis is >3-fold greater in ESRD patients when compared with the general population and is associated with sexually transmitted viral infections. Neurosyphilis is a common occurrence and is treatable, suggesting that all assessments of confusion in dialysis patients should include screening for the disease.
