Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an alarmingly increasingcondition from day to day andit is assumed that malnutrition is co-existent in patients withchronic renal failure (CRF). Malnutrition also occurs in pre-dialysis patients. Such patientshave reduced body weight, depleted fat (energy) stores, loss of somatic protein (low musclemass) and low levels of different plasma proteins like pre-albumin albumin, transferrin, andothers. Objective: To ascertain the frequency of malnutrition in dialysis independent patientsof chronic kidney disease. Setting: Department of nephrology, Jinnah Postgraduate MedicalCentre Karachi. Duration of study: 6 month from 1 June 2013 – 1 December 2013. Studydesign: cross sectional study. Subjects and methods: Patients with chronic kidney disease(GFR <60ml/min/1.73m2) on conservative management irrespective of cause and sex werestudied. All Patients with CKD stage 3 and onwards i. ecreatinine clearance less than 60ml/min/1.73m2for more than 6 months were considered. Descriptive analysis of these patientswas done by: Calculating mean ± SD for age and duration of disease. Male to female ratiowas calculated. Frequency of malnutrition in undialysed patients was calculated. The effectmodifier of age, gender, duration of disease was controlled through stratification. Chi squaretest was applied and p value ≤0.05 was taken as significant. Result: Out of 137 patients, 80were males and 57 were females and the mean age of patients was 58 ±5.8. Mean duration ofdisease was 5.2 ±1.05. Moderate malnutrition cases were 58(42.3%) while severe malnutritionwas observed in 32(23.35%) cases. Conclusion: Patients of chronic kidney disease were foundto be at risk of malnutrition.

Background: Chronic kidney disease is distinguished by progressive loss of kidney function over a period of years in the end leading to irreversible kidney failure. CKD is a significant prognosticator of cardiovascular disease. Atherosclerosis is common in patients with risk factors associated with chronic kidney disease.Methods: It was a cross sectional study on CKD patients in a tertiary care hospital. About 90 CKD stage 3-5 patients aged above 18 years were enrolled in the study. Serum lipid profile, RFT, serum calcium, phosphorous, and BP were estimated among all the patient. Patient risk factors were noted and CIMT levels were compared accordingly.Results: Out of 90 patients, males were predominant. There was a significant positive correlation between stage 5 and CIMT (P value <0.001). Mean CIMT was higher in patients with type 2 Diabetes. Patients with higher phosphorous the mean CIMT was significantly higher.Conclusions: The CIMT is early marker for atherosclerosis. Author observed it was significantly higher in patients with stage 3 and 5 CKD. CIMT is a non- invasive marker which should be done in all patients with CKD which is cost effective.

Background and objectives: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) in children is a complex medical and social issue around the world. One of the serious complications is mineral-bone disorder (CKD-MBD) which might determine the prognosis of patients and their quality of life. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) is a phosphaturic hormone which is involved in the pathogenesis of CKD-MBD. The purpose of the study was to determine what comes first in children with CKD: FGF-23 or phosphate. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study included 73 children aged 2–18 years with CKD stages 1–5. We measured FGF-23 and other bone markers in blood samples and studied their associations. Results: Early elevations of FGF-23 were identified in children with CKD stage 2 compared with stage 1 (1.6 (1.5–1.8) pmol/L versus 0.65 (0.22–1.08), p = 0.029). There were significant differences between the advanced stages of the disease. FGF-23 correlated with PTH (r = 0.807, p = 0.000) and phosphate (r = 0.473, p = 0.000). Our study revealed that the elevated level of FGF-23 went ahead hyperphosphatemia and elevated PTH. Thus, more than 50% of children with CKD stage 2 had the elevating level of serum FGF-23, and that index became increasing with the disease progression and it achieved 100% at the dialysis stage. The serum phosphate increased more slowly and only 70.6% of children with CKD stage 5 had the increased values. The PTH increase was more dynamic. Conclusions: FGF-23 is an essential biomarker, elevates long before other markers of bone metabolism (phosphate), and might represent a clinical course of disease.

Prevalence Of Diabetes Mellitus

BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) became a new epidemic of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Diabetic nephropathy is one of the leading causes of end-stage renal failure as a result of the diabetes epidemic worldwide.AIM: The aim of our study was to assess the prevalence of CKD in the Republic of Macedonia and its association with diabetes mellitus.MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study was a part of a study conducted in 2006 in terms of screening for early detection of kidney disease. It was a cross-sectional study based on a random sample of patients aged > 20, consecutively consulting their primary physician for any cause. Fifty physicians throughout the country were included in the study. A total of 2637 patients have been analyzed based on integrity data. GFR was estimated using corrected values of serum creatinine and calculating kidney function by the Cockroft & Gault formula, adjusted for body surface using the Gehan & George formula. Patients with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than 60 ml/min were considered as having CKD. Blood pressure, body weight, height, serum creatinine, glucose, hemoglobin, hematocrit, urinalysis and medical history for presence of cardiovascular diseases or diabetes were also assessed.RESULTS: The mean age of the subjects was 45.97 ± 16.55 SD and 17.97% were older than 60. Regarding gender, 44.14% were males. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus was 13.9%. Subjects with CKD (eGFR less than 60 ml/min) were 7.53% of the total. Subjects aged 60 or above, had 20 times higher risk of having CKD (eGFR less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2). Out of the total group of subjects, 13.9% had diabetes mellitus and they had 3.13 times higher risk of having CKD stage 3-5 (eGFR less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2) when compared to non-diabetics. The results showed that diabetes was significantly more associated with lower eGFR (less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2) in younger subjects (age less than 60) compared to older ones (odds ratio 3.29 versus 1.21).CONCLUSION: Our study showed that chronic kidney disease is frequent in the Republic of Macedonia and is associated with older age and diabetes. Diabetes had a significantly stronger association with CKD at younger age.

Background: Malnutrition is an important risk factor in patients with chronic kidney disease and in those undergoing maintenance dialysis. Subjective global assessment is a reliable method to evaluate malnutrition in these patients. This study aims to evaluate malnutrition in patients of chronic kidney disease using subjective global assesment score.Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted at SRN Hospital, Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh, India on patients attending Nephrology Unit from July 2014 to May 2015.The nutritional status of 100 patients was evaluated using dietary recall, anthropometry, biochemical parameter and subjective global assessment. There were 67 males and 23 females. Their mean age was 46.8 years. Subjective global assessment was done using 7 variables derived from medical history and physical examination. Each variable was scored from 1-5 depending on the severity. The subjective global assessment score was correlated with the standard methods.Results: Out of 100 patients 29% were mildly malnourished, 64% were moderately malnourished and 7% were severely malnourished. The age, triceps thickness, serum urea and cholesterol were correlated with the malnutrition score (r value 0.2, -0.3, 0.2, 0.4 respectively and p-value 0.3, 0.002, 0.007, 0.001 respectively). It was found that the serum albumin (r value -0.21, p-value 0.42) level did not correlate well with the subjective global assessment.Conclusions: The subjective global assessment can be used reliably to assess the malnutrition in the patients of chronic kidney disease and hence useful in prognostication of disease and is a convenient bedside tool, operable even with  paramedics.

Abstract: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a world health problem where the incidence continues to increase, has a poor prognosis and high-level financing. Clinical manifestations of the oral cavity can occur in CKD patients with hemodialysis therapy due to a decrease in the immune system. To analyze the descriptively the clinical manifestations of oral cavity in CKD patients with hemodialysis therapy at RSUD Ulin Banjarmasin South Kalimantan, period January-March 2019. This is a descriptive analysis with a cross sectional study design, based on history and clinical examination of the oral cavity. Data was entered and analyzed using chi square test. Sampling by purposive sampling. there is a relationship between uremic odor and duration of hemodialysis (p = 0.017). There was a relationship between xerostomia and gender (p = 0.035) and there was a relationship between xerostomia and the duration of hemodialysis (p = 0.007). There is a relationship between gingival swelling and age (p = 0.010) and there is a relationship between gingival swelling and diabetes mellitus (p = 0,000). Manifestations found in the oral cavity of CKD patients with hemodialysis therapy are uremic odor, mouthache, xerostomia, mucosal lesions, candidiasis, and gingival swelling. There is a relationship between sex with xerostomia, the relationship between age with gingival swelling, the relationship between the duration of hemodialysis with uremic odor and xerostomia, the association between DM with gingival swelling.

Vitamin D Levels

Abstract Introduction: The progressive decline in 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] in chronic kidney disease (CKD) limits the kidney ability of synthesizing the vitamin. Vitamin D deficiency as defined by KDIGO (25(OH)D <20 ng/mL) is prevalent in CKD patients and associated to oxidative stress (OS). We studied a possible association between vitamin D deficiency and OS in pre-dialysis patients. Methods: A cross-sectional study with 206 CKD patients was carried out. Laboratory tests for 25(OH)D, 1,25(OH)2D, inflammatory markers, and OS were added to routine tests including creatinine, albumin, calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, iPTH, glucose, hemoglobin, uric acid, total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides. Results: Vitamin D deficiency was present in 55 CKD patients and normal vitamin D levels were seen in 149 patients. There was a significant association between vitamin D and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGRF). Homocysteine levels were best predicted by eGRF, sex, and age; high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) by staging and BMI; nitric oxide metabolites (NOx) were increased in late disease; leptin was influenced by BMI and higher in women than man; and adiponectin levels were higher in women. Conclusions: OS biomarkers were not correlated with vitamin D deficiency but increased NOx were seen in stages 4-5 CKD patients. Even though a relatively large number of CKD patients was included and a broad number of OS and inflammatory biomarkers were used in this studied we failed to find an association between vitamin D levels and eGRF. More studies are needed to evaluate the influence of vitamin D status in OS in pre-dialysis CKD patients.

Abstract Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a growing global health problem with faster progression in developing countries such as Iran. Here we aimed to evaluate the prevalence and determinants of CKD stage III+.Methods: This research is part of the Khuzestan Comprehensive Health Study (KCHS), a large observational population-based cross-sectional study in which 30041 participants aged 20 to 65 were enrolled. CKD was determined with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) less than 60 ml/min/1.73m2, based on two equations of Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) and Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI). The multivariate logistic regression was used to evaluate the CKD stage III+ determinants.Results: Prevalence of CKD stage III+ is estimated to be 7.1 %, 5.5%, and 5.4% based on MDRD, CKD-EPI, and combination of both equations, respectively. More than 89% of CKD subjects aged higher than 40 years. In regression analysis, age more than 40 years had the strongest association with CKD stage III+ probability (OR: 8.23, 95% CI: 6.91-9.18). Higher wealth score, hypertension, High-Density Lipoprotein levels less than 40 mg/dl, and higher waist to hip ratio were all associated with CKD stage III+ while Arab ethnicity showed a protective effect (OR: 0.69, 95% CI: 0.57-0.78). Conclusion: Our findings provide detailed information on the CKD stage III+ and its determinants in the southwest region of Iran. Due to strong association between age and CKD stage III+, within a few decades we might expect a huge rise in the CKD prevalence.

INTRODUCTION: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is dened as a disease characterized by alterations in either kidney structure or function or both for a minimum of 3 months duration. According to the National Kidney Foundation criteria, 1 CKD has been classied into ve stages with stage 1 being the earliest or mildest CKD state and stage 5 being the most severe CKD stage. To stage CKD, it is necessary to estimate the GFR rather than relying on serum creatinine concentration. Glomerular ltration rate (GFR), either directly measured by computing urinary clearance of ltration marker such as inulin or estimated by calculating from different equations using serum creatinine. is the most commonly used parameter to assess kidney function. AIM AND OBJECTIVES: a) Establish relationship between serum CKD and eGFR MATERIAL AND METHOD: A Cross-sectional study on 100 cases of newly diagnosed Chronic Kidney Disease patients and matched control subjects is undertaken to study.100 Patients who are newly diagnosed as CKD are selected after proper initial screening. RESULT AND ANALYSIS: In case, the mean eGFR (mean± s.d.) of patients was 25.1500 ± 11.8929. In control, the mean eGFR (mean± s.d.) of patients was 87.2200 ± 17.8295. Difference of mean eGFR in two groups was statistically signicant (p<0.0001). In case, the mean creatinine (mean± s.d.) of patients was 3.6350 ± 2.4419 mg/dl. In control, the mean creatinine (mean± s.d.) of patients was .9435 ± .1317 mg/dl. Difference of mean creatinine in two groups was statistically signicant (p<0.0001). CONCLUSION: eGFR was strongly associated with CKD that also statistically signicant. The positive correlation was found in eGFR.

Introduction: Hyperuricemia is a cause and effect of chronic kidney disease (CKD), accelerates its progression and predisposes to acute kidney injury. Present study aimed to find out the outcome of Febuxostat treatment in hyperuricemic pre-dialysis CKD patients. Method: This was a cross sectional study conducted in Nephrology department, Bir hospital, Nepal, during from February 2019 to January 2020, among pre-dialysis CKD stage 3-5 non dialysis (ND) patients with serum uric acid (SUA) >7 mg/d L who were treated with Febuxostat 40 mg once a day and followed up at one, two and three months. The baseline SUA, creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculated by the modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) equation compared with values at follow up and according to CKD stages. The adverse effects and liver enzymes were recorded. Result: There were total 50 patients, mean age 54.2±16.5 years, male 31 (62%).There were significant reductions of SUA from baseline of 8.9±1.4to 7.1±1.2 vs 5.9±0.9 vs 4.7±1.0) at one, two and three month respectively, p=0.000 and increment of eGFR (ml/min/1.73m2) from 29.6±15.0 to 31.6±16.0, 33.6±16.6, 34.1±17.1, p=0.000.And 41 (82%) patients achieved uric acid < 6 mg/dl at three month. Significant reduction of uric acid in all CKD stages and increment of eGFR in CKD stage 3 and 4 were observed. Adverse effects were epigastralgia in 5 (10%) and joint pain in 13 (26%). Conclusion: Febuxostat is an effective serum uric acid lowering drug in pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease patients with improvement of kidney function.
