Serum S100A12 and Progression of Coronary Artery Calcification Over 4 Years in Hemodialysis Patients.
BACKGROUND/AIM Vascular calcification is common and contributes to increased cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients. In this prospective study, we aimed to investigate the associations of serum S100A12 in the presence of severe coronary artery calcification (CAC) and the progression of CAC in HD patients. METHODS Sixty maintenance HD patients and 30 controls were enrolled. Ser...
متن کاملEvaluation of Vitamin D Level and its Correlation to Vascular Calcification in Hemodialysis Patients
Introduction: Compared with the general population, hemodialysis patients are at increased risk of vascular calcification, which in turn is associated with an increased risk of mortality. Regarding the role of vitamin D in bone formation, regulation of calcium, phosphate and iPTH level and correlation of these variables in survival, this study was performed to evaluate the vitamin D serum level...
متن کاملScreening of vascular calcification in hemodialysis patients.
Vascular calcification (VC) is very common in subjects with chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially in hemodialysis (HD) patients, and it is becoming more prevalent with the worsening of kidney function and CKD duration. VC is associated with many adverse clinical outcomes, including ischemic cardiac events and subsequent vascular mortality (1). VC is usually seen in aging, after vascular inju...
متن کاملSlowing the progression of vascular calcification in hemodialysis.
Hyperphosphatemia and secondary hyperparathyroidism are common complications of ESRD (chronic kidney disease stage 5) that, when untreated, may result in increased morbidity and mortality. Hyperphosphatemia and hypercalcemia have been associated with increased coronary artery calcification. Achieving control of serum phosphorus without increasing serum calcium is an important goal for patients ...
متن کاملHigh levels of S100A12 are associated with recent plaque symptomatology in patients with carotid atherosclerosis.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Atherosclerosis is a progressive chronic disease, in which inflammation plays a key role. The calcium-binding proteins calgranulins including S100A8, S100A9, and S100A12 are involved in many cellular activities and pathological processes including inflammation. We therefore hypothesized that calgranulins may be markers of plaque instability in patients with carotid athero...
