Elevated body mass index as a risk factor for chronic kidney disease: current perspectives
نویسنده
چکیده
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined by the National Kidney Foundation Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative as the presence of reduced kidney function or kidney damage for a period of 3 months or greater. Obesity is considered a risk factor for CKD development, but its precise role in contributing to CKD and end stage kidney disease is not fully elucidated. In this narrative review, the objectives are to describe the pathogenesis of CKD in obesity, including the impact of altered adipokine secretion in obesity and CKD, and to provide an overview of the clinical studies assessing the risk of obesity and CKD development.

Background: Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM) is a common complication in pediatric patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Components incorporated in the regulation of appetite and body composition appear to be of the focus in renal insufficiency and may influence the CKD-associated PEM.

متن کاملDonors at risk: obesity
• A combination of waist circumference and body mass index (BMI) is recommended for the clinical assessment of overweight and obesity. Consideration of differential risk according to ethnicity should be undertaken. • Obesity (BMI > 30 kg/m) should be considered a relative contraindication to donation. • Potential donors who are obese should be very carefully assessed for risk factors associated...
متن کاملAssociation between body mass index and chronic kidney disease: A population-based, cross-sectional study of a Japanese community
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has recently been recognized as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, while the mechanism by which CKD develops remained to be clarified. In the present study, we conducted a cross-sectional, community-based study to identify the factor(s) associated with CKD. We examined 1978 local residents of the Kiyotake area of Japan (697 males and 1281 females; age, 60.8 +...
