Clinical significance of FGF-23 in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) is a potent regulator of serum phosphate level. In CKD, circulating FGF-23 levels gradually increase with declining renal function. Higher FGF-23 level was associated with higher atherosclerosis score. We aimed to study the correlation between FGF-23 and the parameters that have effects on morbidity and mortality in CKD patients and to establish its role as ...
متن کاملHEARING LOSS IN CHRONIC RENAL FAILURE AND CHANGES WITH KIDNEY TRANSPLANTATION
Loss of hearing is a known problem in patients with chronic renal failure, occurring in 40-XO% of cases and being most often of the high frequency sensorineural type. We performed a study on 50 patients with this disease, including 20 who had undergone a successful kidney transplantation. Our results show an 80% incidence of hearing loss in these patients and a chance of improvement in at l...
متن کاملFGF-23 Levels before and after Renal Transplantation
Phosphatonin fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) is involved in phosphate (P) excretion and vitamin D metabolism. Recently, FGF-23 has been suggested to be responsible for the hypophosphatemia and inappropriately low calcitriol levels observed after renal transplantation. We performed a prospective study to investigate FGF-23 levels in patients with end-stage renal disease before and after ren...
متن کاملFGF-23 and Hyperphosphatemia in Dialysis Dependent Chronic Kidney Disease Patients
Dialysis dependent chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become a worldwide public health problem. It is known to increase patient morbidity and mortality risks which can cause major economic strain on the health-care systems. A population based study has shown that the incidence of this end stage renal disease (ESRD) in India was 160 per million population (p.m.p.) in the year 2008 [1]. One of the ...
