Circulating endothelin-1 levels are positively associated with chronic kidney disease in women but not in men: a longitudinal study in the Vara-Skövde cohort
Margareta I. Hellgren, Per-Anders Jansson, Hormoz Alayar, Ulf Lindblad & Bledar Daka
doi : 10.1186/s12882-021-02525-5
BMC Nephrology volume 22, Article number: 327 (2021)
The vasoconstricting peptide endothelin-1 (ET-1) is associated with endothelial dysfunction. The aim of this paper was to investigate whether circulating ET-1 levels predicts chronic kidney disease (CKD) in a prospective population study.

doi : 10.1186/s12882-021-02527-3
BMC Nephrology volume 22, Article number: 328 (2021)
Some studies have suggested mizoribine (MZR) could inhibit the replication of BK polyomavirus (BKPyV). The purpose of this study was to explore whether conversion from mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) to MZR in the early stages of BKPyV infection can improve kidney allograft prognosis.

Helen V. Alderson, Rajkumar Chinnadurai, Sara T. Ibrahim, Ozgur Asar, James P. Ritchie, Rachel Middleton, Anders Larsson, Peter J. Diggle, Tobias E. Larsson & Philip A. Kalra
doi : 10.1186/s12882-021-02528-2
BMC Nephrology volume 22, Article number: 329 (2021)
Fibroblast growth factor23 (FGF23) is elevated in CKD and has been associated with outcomes such as death, cardiovascular (CV) events and progression to Renal Replacement therapy (RRT). The majority of studies have been unable to account for change in FGF23 over time and those which have demonstrate conflicting results. We performed a survival analysis looking at change in c-terminal FGF23 (cFGF23) over time to assess the relative contribution of cFGF23 to these outcomes.
The risk of chronic kidney disease in relation to anthropometric measures of obesity: A Swedish cohort study
Ensieh Memarian, Peter M. Nilsson, Isac Zia, Anders Christensson & Gunnar Engström
doi : 10.1186/s12882-021-02531-7
BMC Nephrology volume 22, Article number: 330 (2021)
It has been shown that individuals with obesity have a higher risk for chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, it is unclear which measure of obesity is most useful for prediction of CKD in the general population. The aim of this large prospective study was to explore the association between several anthropometric measures of obesity, i. e., body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist circumference to height ratio (WHtR), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), percentage of body fat (BF%), weight, height and incidence of hospitalizations due to CKD, in a population-based cohort study.

doi : 10.1186/s12882-021-02542-4
BMC Nephrology volume 22, Article number: 331 (2021)
Reference intervals (RIs) for clinical chemistry test parameters are specific to the method of measurement and population under service. However, there has been no locally available dry chemistry based RIs for the Nepalese population. Thus, the present study aimed to establish dry chemistry based RIs for sodium, potassium, urea, and creatinine specific to adult populations of Kaski districts, Nepal

doi : 10.1186/s12882-021-02529-1
BMC Nephrology volume 22, Article number: 333 (2021)
The transition from chronic kidney disease stage 5 to initiation of hemodialysis has gained increased attention in recent years as this period is one of high risk for patients with an annual mortality rate exceeding 20%. Morbidity and mortality in incident hemodialysis patients are partially attributed to failure to attain guideline-based targets. This study focuses on improvements in six aspects of quality of dialysis care (adequacy, anemia, nutrition, chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD), blood pressure and vascular access) aligning with KDIGO guidelines, during the first 6 months of hemodialysis.

The Japanese Society for Dialysis Therapy (JSDT) published in 2013 inaugural hemodialysis (HD) guidelines. Specific targets include 1.4 for single-pool Kt/V (spKt/V) with a minimum dose of 1.2, minimum dialysis session length of 4 hours, minimum blood flow rate (BFR) of 200 mL/min, fluid removal rate no more than 15 mL/kg/hr, and hemodiafiltration (HDF) therapy for certain identified symptoms. We evaluated the effect of these guidelines on actual practice in the years spanning 2005 – 2018.

doi : 10.1186/s12882-021-02549-x
BMC Nephrology volume 22, Article number: 346 (2021)
Adverse events and mortality tend to cluster around dialysis sessions, potentially due to the impact of the saw-toothed profile of uraemic toxins such as potassium, peaking pre-dialysis and rapidly dropping during dialysis. Acidosis could be contributing to this harm by exacerbating a rise in potassium. The objectives of this study were to investigate the effects of oral bicarbonate treatment on reducing inter-dialytic potassium gain as well as other clinical consequences of preserving muscle mass and function and reducing intradialytic arrhythmia risk in people on haemodialysis.

Galactose-deficient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1) has an increased tendency to form immunocomplexes with IgG in the serum, contributing to IgAN pathogenesis by accumulating in the glomerular mesangium. Several studies showed that glomerular IgG deposition in IgAN is an important cause of mesangial proliferation and glomerular damage. This study aims to determine the association of the positivity of IgG and the intensity of IgG staining with a poor renal prognosis.

Kidney failure with replacement therapy and hemodialysis are associated with a decrease in quality of life (QOL). Self-reported QOL symptoms are not always prioritized by the medical team, potentially leading to conflicting priorities with patients. Electronic patient-reported outcome measures (ePROMs) allow physicians to better identify these symptoms. The objective was to describe the prevalence of symptoms self-reported by hemodialysis (HD) patients.
Tale of two nephropathies; co-occurring Alport syndrome and IgA nephropathy, a case report
Aniruddha Bhattacharyya, Yuting Huang, Sarah Hussain Khan, Cinthia Beskow Drachenberg & Laura C. Malone
doi : 10.1186/s12882-021-02567-9
BMC Nephrology volume 22, Article number: 358 (2021)
Alport Syndrome and IgA Nephropathy (IgAN) are both disorders that can cause hematuria. Alport syndrome is most commonly an X-linked disease, caused by COL4A5 mutation. Mutations of COL4A3 and COL4A4 on chromosome two are also common causes of Alport syndrome. IgAN is the most common glomerulonephritis worldwide. Though IgAN is usually sporadic, an estimated 15% of cases have an inheritable component. These cases of Familal IgA Nephropathy (FIgAN) can have mutations on genes which are known to cause Alport Syndrome.
