Beta-Trace Protein (BTP) is a low-molecular-weight glycoprotein that can convert prostaglandin H2 into prostaglandin D2 and is associated with the vascular function's alteration. Serum beta-trace protein has been proposed as a promising marker in predicting kidney function in hypertensive patients. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between BTP and glomerulus filtration rate, particularly in hypertensive patients. A cross-sectional survey was conducted on 70 hypertensive participants admitted to Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital from July-August 2019. Beta-trace protein, serum urea, creatinine, blood pressure, and anthropometric were measured. The Glomerulus Filtration Rate (GFR) with Cockcroft Gault was graded using GFR stages. The hypertension was graded according to the category of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) 2018. A descriptive test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Fisher exact test, Spearman correlation test, and logistic regression test were performed at a confidence level of 95%. Significant differences were found between the age, systole, diastole, blood urea, creatinine, and GFR (p=< 0.05). There was a significant difference between GFR and the degree of hypertension (p=< 0.001), but no differences were found in the mean value of BTP and the degree of hypertension (p=0.348). A significant negative correlation was found between GFR and BTP (p=0.028, r = -0.263). Logistic regression test s showed that the increased BTP led to 2.591 times greater possibility of end-stage renal disease with GFR < 15 mL/min/ 2 1.73 m (crude odds ratio 95% CI 1.168-5.475). Serum beta-trace protein possesses a prognostic ability of glomerulus filtration rate and can be used to predict the odd of end-stage renal disease in hypertensive patients.

Introduction: Carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) has been reported to predict kidney function decline. However, whether carotid IMT is associated with a hard kidney endpoint, end-stage renal disease (ESRD), has not been investigated. Hypothesis: We assessed the hypothesis that increased carotid IMT is associated with ESRD risk. Methods: We studied 13,197 ARIC participants at visit 1 (1987-1989) without history of cardiovascular disease including coronary heart disease, stroke and heart failure and assessed whether carotid IMT measured by B-mode ultrasound is associated with ESRD risk using Cox proportional-hazards models. Regarding carotid IMT parameters, we investigated the mean and maximum values of overall and segment-specific (common, bifurcation and internal carotid arteries) measurements. Results: Mean age was 54.0 (SD 5.7) years, and there were 3,373 (25.6%) blacks and 7,370 (55.8%) women. During a median follow-up of 22.7 years, 433 participants developed ESRD (1.4/1,000 person-years). After adjusting for shared risk factors for atherosclerosis and kidney disease, including baseline kidney function, carotid IMT was significantly associated with ESRD risk (hazard ratios between quartiles 4 and 1, 1.43 [95%CI: 1.01-2.04] for overall mean IMT and 1.73 [95%CI: 1.22-2.44] for overall maximum IMT). The associations were largely consistent in demographic and clinical subgroups. When we explored segment-specific IMTs, the associations with ESRD were most robust for bifurcation carotid. The adjusted hazard ratios between quartiles 4 and 1 were 1.48 (95%CI: 1.04-2.11) for mean bifurcation IMT and 1.42 (95%CI: 0.99-2.03) for maximum bifurcation IMT. Conclusions: Carotid IMT was independently associated with incident ESRD in the general population. Our findings suggest the shared etiology between atherosclerosis and ESRD and highlight the importance of monitoring kidney function over time in individuals with subclinical atherosclerosis.

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
