Journal ArticleDOI

Alkaline phosphatase: a novel treatment target for cardiovascular disease in CKD

TL;DR: Novel mechanisms that link ALP to vascular calcification, inflammation, and endothelial dysfunction in kidney and cardiovascular diseases are reviewed and new drugs that target ALP are discussed, which have the potential to improve cardiovascular outcomes without inhibiting skeletal mineralization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased circulating sclerostin levels in end-stage renal disease predict biopsy-verified vascular medial calcification and coronary artery calcification

TL;DR: High serum sclerostin levels associate with the extent of vascular calcification as evaluated both by coronary artery CT and scoring of epigastric artery calcification, indicating that the vasculature is not a major contributor to circulating levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

European Consensus Statement on the diagnosis and management of osteoporosis in chronic kidney disease stages G4–G5D

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed and updated the assessment and diagnosis of osteoporosis in patients with CKD G4-G5D and discussed the therapeutic interventions available and the manner in which these can be used to develop management strategies for the prevention of fragility fracture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bone alkaline phosphatase: An important biomarker in chronic kidney disease - mineral and bone disorder.

TL;DR: The linear association with mortality, compared to the U-shaped curve for PTH, is an additional advantage, making BALP more suitable than PTH as a treatment target in CKD, and the clinical benefit of BALP determination in CKd is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bone biopsy practice patterns across Europe: the European renal osteodystrophy initiative-a position paper.

TL;DR: The European Renal Osteodystrophy (EU-ROD) initiative was created under the umbrella of the ERA-EDTA CKD-mineral and bone disorder (MBD) Working Group to revitalize bone biopsy as a clinically useful tool in the diagnostic workup of CKD and to foster research on the epidemiology, implications and reversibility of ROD.
