A healthy life style is associated with decreased risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and mortality in the general population. However, there is no definitive evidence of the benefits of physical activity and other health-related behaviors in the early-stage of CKD. This study aimed to explore the association between health-related behaviors and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and mortality in the early stages of CKD. The National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) database from 1 January 2009 to 31 December 2016 was used to screen 83,470 subjects with early stage CKD. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between health-related behaviors and ESRD and death. Kaplan–Meier curves for mortality and ESRD were plotted according to the physical activity, smoking status, and alcohol consumption pattern. Risk of death decreased significantly in subjects who engaged in sufficient physical activity (adjusted Hazard Ratio (HR) 0.73; 95% CI: 0.64–0.83; p < 0.001). Risk of ESRD and death increased significantly in the current smoker with adjusted HR of 1.44 (95% CI: 1.06–1.95; p < 0.02) and 1.61 (95% CI: 1.44–1.80; p < 0.001) respectively. Therefore, systematic interventions to encourage physical activity and smoking cessation need to be actively considered in the early stages of CKD.

Abstract Background and Aims Muscle wasting leads to poor outcomes in patient with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The serum creatinine to cystatin C (Cr/CysC) ratio has been reported as marker for muscle mass and may predict outcomes in chronic diseases. We hypothesized that the Cr/CysC ratio would be a predictor of outcomes in CKD. Method We investigated a total of 2142 patients (male 61%, aged 54±12 year) with CKD followed for a median of 3.74 years. We assessed the factors associated with Cr/CysC ratio and the relationship between Cr/CysC ratio and outcomes of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), cardiovascular event (CVE), and mortality. Results The Cr/CysC ratio significantly correlated with age (r=-0.18), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (r=-0.21), serum albumin (r=0.11), 24-hour urine creatinine (r=0.38), and moderate to vigorous physical activity time (r=0.07). After adjusting for age, sex, eGFR, and log urine albumin creatinine ratio (model 1), the hazard ratios for ESRD, CVE, and mortality were 0.96 (95% CI, 0.86-1.07), 0.78 (95% CI, 0.61-0.99), and 0.72 (95% CI, 0.53-0.97) per 1 standard deviation Cr/CysC increase (0.21), respectively. After full adjustment for model 1 variables plus lifestyle factors, laboratory factors, and comorbidities (model 2), the hazard ratios for ESRD, CVE, and mortality were 0.99 (95% CI, 0.88-1.10), 0.84 (95% CI, 0.65-1.07), and 0.75 (95% CI, 0.55-0.99) per 1 standard deviation Cr/CysC increase (0.24), respectively. In subgroup of the elderly (age&gt;65 year) and early stage CKD (eGFR&gt;60 ml/min/1.73m2), the hazard ratios for CVE were significantly lower in patients with high Cr/CysC ratio. Conclusion Cr/CysC ratio correlates with muscle biomarkers and physical activity. A higher Cr/CysC ratio is associated with low CVE and mortality, but not ESRD in CKD.

Abstract Introduction: A high incidence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) events and premature mortality is observed in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Thus, new biomarkers that may help predict the development of CVD in early stages of CKD are being investigated along with other traditional risk factors. Objective: To investigate cathepsin S as an early biomarker for CVD in patients with CKD. Methods: A total of 64 patients with CKD were included and classified into 2 groups: CKD patients with established CVD and CKD patients with non-established CVD. All patients were submitted to routine investigations including complete blood count, random blood sugar, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), serum electrolytes, urea, creatinine, total protein, total albumin, calcium total, phosphorous, uric acid, vitamin D, parathormone, lipid profile, liver function test, measurement of serum cathepsin S (Cat S), and 2D Echo of the heart. Results: The level of serum Cat S was increased in CKD patients with CVD (p <0.05) as well as in later stages of CKD (p <0.05). CVD was also more common in patients in early stage CKD. In early stages CKD, Cat S and CVD were positively correlated. Conclusion: These findings suggest that serum Cat S might be useful as an early biomarker for CVD in CKD patients.

Background:Patients on hemodialysis (HD) report lower physical activity (PA) levels. We analyzed factors associated with low levels of PA in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and compared PA on HD day and non-HD.Methods:79 patients wore an accelerometer and were classified according to time spent on moderate-to-vigorous PA (MVPA). Demographic data, BMI, comorbidities, clinical status, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) were checked for association with PA. In addition, PA level was compared between days of HD and non-HD.Results:Accelerometer compliance was 78.5% [33 men and 29 women (53.96 ± 15.71 yrs) were included in analysis]. 35.5% of sample achieved ≥150min/week on MVPA. Lower MVPA was associated with older age (OR = 5.80, 95% CI = 1.11 to 30.19, P = .04), and lower score of physical function HRQoL (OR = 4.33, 95% CI = 1.23 to 15.23, P = .02). In addition, patients spent 9.73% more time on sedentary behavior, 38.9% less on light PA and 74.9% less on MVPA on HD day versus non-HD day.Conclusion:Age and physical function HRQoL were the main factors associated to lower PA levels. In addition, lower time spent on PA during HD day suggest that strategies for increasing physical activity levels during HD day such exercising during HD session could help CKD patients to reach current PA recommendations.

Proteinuria is a marker of kidney damage and an important risk factor for progression of chronic kidney disease as well as cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Albumin is the principal component of proteinuria in glomerular disease. The presence of persistent albumin in the urine is a clear sign of glomerular abnormality. Microalbuminuria describes the urinary excretion of small amounts of albumin which identifies the very early stage of diabetic kidney disease. The albumin creatinine ratio is the preferred method of detecting microalbuminuria. There is strong evidence that treatment in the early stages of chronic kidney disease reduces progression of kidney damage. The levels of proteinuria in both diabetic and non-diabetic kidney disease at which management should be addressed have been reviewed. This article also reviews the interventions recommended for early stages of chronic kidney disease to reduce the risk of progression to end stage kidney failure. Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin 2 receptor blockers are more effective in reducing proteinuria and retarding the progression of kidney disease in comparison to other therapies which lower systemic blood pressure to a similar degree.

The article presents the results of a study to assess the functional reserve of the kidneys against the background of a comparative study of antiaggregant therapy dipyridamole and allthrombosepin in 50 patients with a relatively early stage of chronic kidney disease. Studies have shown that long-term administration of allthrombosepin to patients has resulted in better maintenance of kidney functional reserves. Therefore, our research has once again confirmed that diphtheridamol, which is widely used as an antiaggregant drug in chronic kidney disease, does not lag behind the domestic raw material allthrombosepin
