Vascular calcification in dialysis patients.
Renal osteodystrophy, vascular disease and mortality are believed to be linked in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), although to date most of the evidence is based only on statistical associations. The precise pathophysiology of vascular calcification in end stagerenal disease (ESRD) is unknown, but risk factors include age, hypertension, time on dialysis, and, most significantly, abno...
متن کاملOcean Acidification Reduces Growth and Calcification in a Marine Dinoflagellate
Ocean acidification is considered a major threat to marine ecosystems and may particularly affect calcifying organisms such as corals, foraminifera and coccolithophores. Here we investigate the impact of elevated pCO2 and lowered pH on growth and calcification in the common calcareous dinoflagellate Thoracosphaera heimii. We observe a substantial reduction in growth rate, calcification and cyst...
متن کاملCoccolithophore calcification response to past ocean acidification and climate change
Anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions are forcing rapid ocean chemistry changes and causing ocean acidification (OA), which is of particular significance for calcifying organisms, including planktonic coccolithophores. Detailed analysis of coccolithophore skeletons enables comparison of calcite production in modern and fossil cells in order to investigate biomineralization response of ancient ...
متن کاملGlobal Biogeochemical Cycles Energetic costs of calcification under ocean acidification
Anthropogenic ocean acidification threatens to negatively impact marine organisms that precipitate calcium carbonate skeletons. Past geological events, such as the Permian-Triassic Mass Extinction, together with modern experiments generally support these concerns. However, the physiological costs of producing a calcium carbonate skeleton under different acidification scenarios remain poorly und...
متن کاملEarly detection of ocean acidification effects on marine calcification
[1] Ocean acidification is likely to impact calcification rates in many pelagic organisms, which may in turn cause significant changes in marine ecosystem structure. We examine effects of changes in marine CaCO3 production on total alkalinity (TA) in the ocean using the global biogeochemical ocean model HAMOCC. We test a variety of future calcification scenarios because experimental studies wit...
