Calcium-Based Phosphate Binders Are Appropriate in Chronic Renal Failure

TL;DR: The case for and against abandoning calcium-based phosphate binders in favor of sevelamer is reviewed, and an open mind and an awareness of developing literature are necessary when deciding how to manage hyperphosphatemia in renal failure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Achieving chronic kidney disease treatment targets in renal transplant recipients: results from a cross-sectional study in Spain.

TL;DR: CKD and their complications were prevalent in renal transplant recipients and the control of some of these complications is far below targets established for nontransplant CKD patients despite a progressive intensification of therapy as graft function declines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phosphate removal with several thrice-weekly dialysis methods in overweight hemodialysis patients.

TL;DR: Use of 2 dialyzers in parallel for 6 weeks in overweight hemodialysis patients led to substantially lower predialysis phosphate levels and the potential contribution of increased dialyzer surface area to better control of serum phosphate levels in maintenance hemodials patients is explored.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-adjustment of phosphate binder dose to meal phosphorus content improves management of hyperphosphataemia in children with chronic kidney disease

TL;DR: The empowerment of children with CKD and their parents to self-adjust PB dose to eye-estimated meal iP content significantly improved management of hyperphosphataemia without reducing dietary iP intake.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hypovitaminosis D Is Associated with Systemic Inflammation and Concentric Myocardial Geometric Pattern in Hemodialysis Patients with Low iPTH Levels

TL;DR: Hypovitaminosis D is associated with inflammation and concentric geometric pattern of the left ventricle, even in the absence of high iPTH levels, and Vitamin D repletion should also be considered in HD patients with normal or low iPodTH levels.
