Bone alkaline phosphatase and mortality in dialysis patients.

چکیده
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Serum alkaline phosphatase (AP) is associated with vascular calcification and mortality in hemodialysis patients, but AP derives from various tissues of origin. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of bone-specific AP (BAP) on morbidity and mortality in dialysis patients. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS From a prospective cohort study of incident dialysis patients in The Netherlands, all patients with measured BAP at 12 months after the start of dialysis (baseline) were included in the analysis (n = 800; mean age, 59 ± 15 years; mean BAP = 18 ± 13 U/L). By Cox regression analyses, we assessed the impact of BAP levels on short-term mortality (6 months) and longer-term mortality (4-year follow-up). RESULTS High levels of BAP strongly affected short-term mortality. After adjustment for confounders, patients in the highest BAP tertile had a 5.7-fold increased risk of death within 6 months compared with patients in the lowest tertile. The effect applied to both cardiovascular and noncardiovascular mortality. Furthermore, high levels of BAP were associated with increased cardiovascular mortality in the longer term. In comparison with total AP, the effect sizes related to clinical outcomes were much higher for BAP. CONCLUSIONS High levels of BAP were strongly associated with short-term mortality in dialysis patients, pointing out the important impact of bone turnover. Longitudinal assessments of BAP may be useful for the treatment monitoring in clinical practice in dialysis patients.

The concentrations of serum calcitonin', parathormone (PTH), amylase, alkaline phosphatase (ALKP), calcium and phosphorus were studied in pre-and post-dialysis patients with chronic renal failure. All patients had extremely elevated serum urea and creatinine concentrations with the mean values of143.8 and 10.5 mg/dL respectively. The plasma amylase activity was higher than normal with a me...

The story of alkaline phosphatase in the management of mineral and bone disorder (MBD) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an interesting and educational part of the history of nephrology. Circulating alkaline phosphatase, a marker of bone turnover, was among the first bone markers used for the detection and management of ‘renal osteodystrophy’, a term previously used by clinicians...

The relationship between serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) concentrations and mortality in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients is rarely reported. We enrolled 667 PD patients in one PD centre in Taiwan to retrospectively examine the association between three ALP concentrations (baseline, time-averaged, time-dependent) and mortality over a 5-year period (2011-2015). Baseline data collection include...

Serum total alkaline phosphatase is the most commonly used biochemical marker of bone disease in renal patients, but alkaline phosphatase originates from different organs and sometimes lacks specificity. Bone isoenzyme measurement is considered superior to total alkaline phosphatase for the assessment of bone metabolism. We have studied the value of bone isoenzyme, determined by a new. IRMA (Ta...

Background/Aim High serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels predict mortality independent of bone metabolism parameters and liver function test results in patients on hemodialysis. The relationship between serum ALP at dialysis initiation and mortality during maintenance dialysis is unknown; therefore, we aimed to identify an association.
