Association of Serum Phosphate and Related Factors in ESRD-Related Vascular Calcification
نویسندگان
چکیده
Vascular calcification is common in ESRD patients and is important in increasing mortality from cardiovascular complications in these patients. Hyperphosphatemia related to chronic kidney disease is increasingly known as major stimulus for vascular calcification. Hyperphosphatemia and vascular calcification become popular discussion among nephrologist environment more than five decades, and many researches have been evolved. Risk factors for calcification are nowadays focused for the therapeutic prevention of vascular calcification with the hope of reducing cardiovascular complications.

Evaluation of Vitamin D Level and its Correlation to Vascular Calcification in Hemodialysis Patients
Introduction: Compared with the general population, hemodialysis patients are at increased risk of vascular calcification, which in turn is associated with an increased risk of mortality. Regarding the role of vitamin D in bone formation, regulation of calcium, phosphate and iPTH level and correlation of these variables in survival, this study was performed to evaluate the vitamin D serum level...
متن کاملVascular calcification in patients with end-stage renal disease.
Vascular calcification is the most common type of extra-osseous calcification in end-stage renal disease (ESRD), manifesting as both medial and intimal calcification of large arteries. It is highly prevalent, often progressive and is associated with reduced arterial elasticity and increased mortality. Risk factors for calcification in ESRD include age, duration of dialysis, diabetes mellitus, m...
متن کاملThe Phosphorus and the Vascular Calcification in ESRD between Old Adventures and New Horizons
Phosphate plays a central role in the pathophysiology of CKD-MBD and the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and contributes to the disproportionate cardiovascular risk faced by patients with CKD. Adaptation of nephrons attempting to preserve phosphate homeostasis requires endocrine tradeoff that fuel adverse events of hyperphosphatemia in CKD—secondary hyperparathyroidism, calcium and ...
متن کاملThe Strategy to Prevent and Regress the Vascular Calcification in Dialysis Patients
The high prevalence of arterial calcification in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is far beyond the explanation by common cardiovascular risk factors such as aging, diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. The finding relies on the fact that vascular and valvular calcifications are predictors of cardiovascular diseases and mortality in persons with chronic renal failure. In addition to tradition...
متن کاملAdvanced coronary and carotid arteriopathy in young adults with childhood-onset chronic renal failure.
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular mortality is excessive in young adults with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The factors contributing to ESRD-related vascular disease are incompletely understood. Young adults with childhood-onset chronic renal failure (CRF) are uniquely suited for risk factor assessment because of their long-term exposure at an age when vascular pathology in the general population is ...
