Association between physical performance and all-cause mortality in CKD.
In older adults, measurements of physical performance assess physical function and associate with mortality and disability. Muscle wasting and diminished physical performance often accompany CKD, resembling physiologic aging, but whether physical performance associates with clinical outcome in CKD is unknown. We evaluated 385 ambulatory, stroke-free participants with stage 2-4 CKD enrolled in c...
متن کاملSkin autofluorescence and all-cause mortality in stage 3 CKD.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Novel markers may help to improve risk prediction in CKD. One potential candidate is tissue advanced glycation end product accumulation, a marker of cumulative metabolic stress, which can be assessed by a simple noninvasive measurement of skin autofluorescence. Skin autofluorescence correlates with higher risk of cardiovascular events and mortality in people with diabe...
متن کاملElevated osteoprotegerin associated with all-cause mortality in CKD
Background. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the chronic kidney disease (CKD) population. The mechanisms of vascular damage are not fully understood. The objective of this study was to prospectively investigate the importance of novel mediators of vascular damage, in conjunction with vascular calcification (VC), on survival. Methods. A total of 134 subjects [60 haemodialy...
متن کاملSerum calcification propensity predicts all-cause mortality in predialysis CKD.
Medial arterial calcification is accelerated in patients with CKD and strongly associated with increased arterial rigidity and cardiovascular mortality. Recently, a novel in vitro blood test that provides an overall measure of calcification propensity by monitoring the maturation time (T50) of calciprotein particles in serum was described. We used this test to measure serum T50 in a prospective...
متن کاملChanges in physical activity and all-cause mortality in COPD.
Little is known about changes in physical activity in subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and its impact on mortality. Therefore, we aimed to study changes in physical activity in subjects with and without COPD and the impact of physical activity on mortality risk. Subjects from the Copenhagen City Heart Study with at least two consecutive examinations were selected. Each...
