FC 079HIGH SERUM PHOSPHATE, A NOVEL POTENTIAL RISK FACTOR FOR BONE FRAGILITY FRACTURES IN THE COSMOS STUDY
Abstract Background and Aims Bone fragility fractures (bone fractures) are extremely frequent in haemodialysis (HD) patients. Serum phosphate (P) has been suggested as a risk factor for bone fracture, nonetheless, evidence is poor. The aim of this study was to assess the association between incidence of bone fractures and serum phosphate (P), calcium (Ca) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) in patients from the COSMOS study. Method COSMOS is an observational, prospective, open cohort study with 3 years of follow-up including 6797 haemodialysis patients from 227 centres randomly selected from 20 European countries. At baseline, demographics, comorbidities, treatments, serum biochemical parameters …
Blood pressure in chronic kidney disease stage 5D—report from a Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes controversies conference
Management of blood pressure (BP) in patients with chronic kidney disease receiving dialysis (stage 5D) provides a significant challenge for healthcare professionals. The association between BP and cardiovascular disease risk has been well studied in the general population; however, in dialysis patients, physiological and dialysis-related mechanisms influencing BP are complex, and the associated risk is poorly understood. In stage 5D, BP is determined by the complex interplay of fluid volume and prescription of post-dialysis target weight, sodium load, the renin–angiotensin and sympathetic nervous systems, and diverse exogenous factors, such as administration of erythropoiesis-stimulating a…
Inflammation is an amplifier of lung congestion by high lv filling pressure in hemodialysis patients: a longitudinal study
Introduction Since infammation alters vascular permeability, including vascular permeability in the lung, we hypothesized that it can be an amplifer of lung congestion in a category of patients at high risk for pulmonary oedema like end stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients. Objective and methods We investigated the efect modifcation by systemic infammation (serum CRP) on the relationship between a surrogate of the flling pressure of the LV [left atrial volume indexed to the body surface area (LAVI)] and lung water in a series of 220 ESKD patients. Lung water was quantifed by the number of ultrasound B lines (US-B) on lung US. Six-hundred and three recordings were performed during a 2-year f…
A randomized multicenter trial on a lung ultrasound-guided treatment strategy in patients on chronic hemodialysis with high cardiovascular risk
Lung congestion is a risk factor for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in patients on chronic hemodialysis, and its estimation by ultrasound may be useful to guide ultrafiltration and drug therapy in this population. In an international, multi-center randomized controlled trial (NCT02310061) we investigated whether a lung ultrasound-guided treatment strategy improved a composite end point (all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, decompensated heart failure) vs usual care in patients receiving chronic hemodialysis with high cardiovascular risk. Patient-Reported Outcomes (Depression and the Standard Form 36 Quality of Life Questionnaire, SF36) were assessed as secondary outcome…
P1394ASSOCIATION BETWEEN PARATHYROID HORMONE AND MORTALITY IN HAEMODIALYSIS: THE DIABETES MAKES THE DIFFERENCE
Abstract Background and Aims Diabetes is the most common cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 and a relevant risk factor for mortality. The available CKD-MBD guidelines do not make differences between diabetics and non-diabetics regarding the optimal targets of the serum bone and mineral biochemical parameters. Thus, the objective of this analysis of COSMOS was to compare the association between the main serum bone and mineral biochemical parameters (calcium-Ca, phosphorus-P and parathyroid hormone-PTH) and mortality in diabetic and non-diabetic patients in haemodialysis. Method COSMOS is a 3-year, observational, prospective, open-cohort study that includes 6797 patients from 227 d…
