Definition, evaluation, and classification of renal osteodystrophy: A position statement from Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO)

TL;DR: It is recommended that the term renal osteodystrophy be used exclusively to define alterations in bone morphology associated with CKD, and the term CKD-Mineral and Bone Disorder (CKD-MBD) be used to describe a broader clinical syndrome that develops as a systemic disorder of mineral and bone metabolism due to CKD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Engineering bone regeneration with bioabsorbable scaffolds with novel microarchitecture

TL;DR: A change in the current paradigm regarding the microarchitecture of scaffolds for in vivo bone regeneration to include mechanisms based on hematoma stabilization is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paricalcitol versus calcitriol in the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism.

TL;DR: Paricalcitol treatment reduced PTH concentrations more rapidly with fewer sustained episodes of hypercalcemia and increased Ca x P product than calcitriol therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

KDOQI US commentary on the 2009 KDIGO Clinical Practice Guideline for the Diagnosis, Evaluation, and Treatment of CKD-Mineral and Bone Disorder (CKD-MBD).

TL;DR: A US perspective on the 2009 KDIGO guideline, which addresses the evaluation and treatment of abnormalities of CKD-MBD in adults and children with CKD stages 3-5 on long-term dialysis therapy or with a kidney transplant, is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased Risk of Fracture in Patients Receiving Solid Organ Transplants

TL;DR: An increased incidence of fractures is shown and the magnitude of this problem in patients undergoing solid organ transplantation is estimated and the need for a long‐term prospective study of fracture risk in these patients is defined.
