Risk of end-stage renal disease following live kidney donation.
IMPORTANCE Risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in kidney donors has been compared with risk faced by the general population, but the general population represents an unscreened, high-risk comparator. A comparison to similarly screened healthy nondonors would more properly estimate the sequelae of kidney donation. OBJECTIVES To compare the risk of ESRD in kidney donors with that of a health...
متن کاملEnd-stage renal disease risk in live kidney donors: what have we learned from two recent studies?
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Living kidney donation improves the lives of those with kidney failure, but there are potential risks to the donor. We review two recent publications that describe the long-term risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in living kidney donors. RECENT FINDINGS One study reported that the long-term risk (median follow-up 15.1 years) of ESRD was, in relative terms, 11-fold higher...
متن کاملEffects of spironolactone on cardiovascular outcomes in chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease patients
Cardiovascular disease causes significant morbidity and mortality among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Several small clinical trials have shown the beneficial effects of spironolactone therapy on cardiac function in CKD patients. However, the effect of spironolactone on cardiovascular outcomes in CKD and ESRD patients is not clear. The objective o...
