Vascular calcification and 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in non-dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease stages 4 and 5.
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death among chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Vascular calcification is highly prevalent in this population and is an independent predictor of cardiovascular mortality. Vascular calcification in uraemic patients is known to be an active and regulated process subject to the action of many promoting and inhibitory factors. The r...
متن کامل25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and vascular calcification in predialysis and dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease.
BACKGROUND/AIMS The role of vitamin D in the process of vascular calcification is unclear in patients with chronic kidney disease. We investigated whether serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] is associated with vascular calcification in predialysis and dialysis patients. METHODS We included 86 predialysis and 139 dialysis patients. The simple vascular calcification score (SVCS) was evaluated b...
متن کاملVitamin D (25(OH)D) in patients with chronic kidney disease stages 2-5
OBJECTIVE To establish the impact the chronic kidney disease stage has in the native vitamin D levels in patients not undergoing dialysis treatment. METHODS A study performed in Manizales, Colombia, a city located 2,200 meters above sea level, without important stational variations. Patients with 18 years of age or more, with chronic kidney disease stages 2 to 5 and not undergoing dialysis tr...
متن کاملAssociation between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels and carotid atherosclerosis in chronic kidney disease patients
BACKGROUND Epidemiological studies have shown an inverse relationship between vitamin D levels and cardiovascular diseases. However, this does not infer a causal relationship between the two. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients have a high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency and carotid atherosclerosis. Therefore, in this study we have aimed to determine the association between serum 25-hydrox...
متن کامل25-hydroxyvitamin D Levels was not Associated with Blood Pressure and Arterial Stiffness in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease
Background We investigated the effect of vitamin D deficiency on cardiovascular risk profiles in an Asian population with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Methods A total of 210 participants (62 non-dialysis CKD patients and 148 hemodialysis [HD] patients) were enrolled between December 2009 and February 2010. Vitamin D deficiency was determined using the serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] conc...
