Classic risk factors for cardiovascular disease in chronic kidney disease.
7 he heart-kidney relationship was known in antiquity, and in the Corpus Hippocraticum patients with shortness f breath, edema, anasarca, and cardiac cachexia are decribed.1 Edema was thought to be caused by a shift of hlegm—a cold humor—from the brain into the chest. The heory came to an end when Andrea Cesalpino of Arezzo gave n exact demonstration of the general scheme of the circulaion2,3 b...
متن کاملCardiovascular risk factors in chronic kidney disease: does phosphate qualify?
Risk factors for disease states are rigorously defined. This analysis considers the definition of a risk factor as applied to the question of whether the serum phosphorus level is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Observational studies strongly suggest that phosphorus is associated with cardiovascular risk, and definitive prospective animal studies are supportive. A plausible mechanism ...
متن کاملCardiovascular risk in chronic kidney disease.
National Kidney Foundation guidelines define chronic kidney disease (CKD) as persistent kidney damage (confirmed by renal biopsy or markers of kidney damage) and/or glomerular filtration rate (GFR) <60 mL/min/1.73m2 for greater than three months. Patients with CKD experience higher mortality and adverse cardiovascular (CV) event rates, which remains significant after adjustment for conventional...
متن کامل10. Cardiovascular Risk in Chronic Kidney Disease
Burden of chronic disease throughout the world is steadily increasing. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) frequently coexist and represent a major challenge in today’s medicine. Although exact pathophysiological mechanisms are not fully understood, it seems that CVD and CKD can initiate, enhance, and perpetuate each other, eventually leading to vicious circle and prem...
متن کاملCardiovascular Risk Factors and Chronic Kidney Disease—FGF23: A Key Molecule in the Cardiovascular Disease
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk of mortality, mainly from cardiovascular disease. Moreover, abnormal mineral and bone metabolism, the so-called CKD-mineral and bone disorder (MBD), occurs from early stages of CKD. This CKD-MBD presents a strong cardiovascular risk for CKD patients. Discovery of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) has altered our understanding of...
