Effect of kidney donation on bone mineral metabolism

Changes in Markers of Mineral Metabolism After Living Kidney Donation

BACKGROUND Living kidney donors (LKDs) experience reduction in kidney function, however serum phosphate (sPi) levels are lower compared to patients with chronic kidney disease matched for reduced kidney function. Mineral metabolism adaptations that occur in LKDs have not been adequately investigated. To evaluate the effect of nephrectomy on markers of mineral metabolism in LKDs compared to heal...

Citrate and mineral metabolism: kidney stones and bone disease.

Citrate is a weak acid that is formed in the tricarboxylic acid cycle or that may be introduced with diet. In the present paper all the mechanisms involved in intestinal absorption, renal handling and modulation of citrate will be reviewed. The evaluation of plasma citric acid is scarcely used in the diagnosis of human diseases. On the contrary urinary citrate excretion is a common tool in the ...

Bone and Mineral Metabolism

Background: Evidence suggests that vitamin D status in adults is positively associated with calcium absorption fraction and inversely associated with serum PTH. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationships among vitamin D status, PTH, and calcium absorption in midpubertal boys and girls. Methods: Calcium absorption was measured by using a stable isotope method in 93 young adole...
