Atrial fibrillation (AF) can lead to stroke, heart failure, and mortality has a greater prevalence in dialysis patients than the general population. Several studies have suggested that uremic toxins may contribute development of AF. However, association between adequacy incident AF not been well established.

The strength of association between the body mass index (BMI) and blood pressure (BP) varies with population time. Therefore, identifying trends in BMI-BP adolescents can help predict upcoming metabolic cardiovascular disease burden. For this reason, from physical examination data collected 2003 to 2017, a total 5,133,246 Korean men aged 19 years were assessed for annual changes association. During 15-year period, mean BMI increased 22.5 23.5 kg/m2, prevalence obesity 16.7 21.4%. Meanwhile,...

ABSTRACT Background Insomnia is a known risk factor for cardio-cerebrovascular disease in the general population; however, its effect on outcomes end-stage kidney patients unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate association between and insomnia who initiated maintenance dialysis. Methods This used nationwide Korean health insurance claims data analyze 79 420 dialysis from January 2009 December 2017. was defined using claim codes sleep medication prescription data.

The optimal level of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) to prevent adverse clinical outcomes is unknown in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We analyzed 707 CKD G1-G5 without replacement therapy T2DM from the KoreaN Cohort Study for Outcome Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease (KNOW-CKD), a nationwide prospective cohort study. main predictor was time-varying HbA1c at each visit. primary outcome composite development major cardiovascular events...

Introduction ABO-incompatible (ABOi) kidney transplantation (KT) has become an important option to overcome organ shortage. Plasmapheresis/rituximab-based desensitization therapy successfully reduced anti-ABO antibody levels and suppressed antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) in ABOi KT. However, high titers of antibodies some patients are refractory standard desensitization, leading loss KT opportunities or AMR. Methods Eculizumab treatment was used adjunctive rescue high-titer...

Dietary fiber intake is associated with a lower risk of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. However, it unknown whether dietary has beneficial effect on preventing the development chronic kidney disease (CKD). Using UK Biobank prospective cohort, 110,412 participants who completed at least one questionnaire had an estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥60 mL/min/1.73 m2, urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio <30 mg/g, no history CKD were included. The primary exposure was total...

Abstract Background and Aims Manganese, an essential trace element crucial for various physiological processes, has been linked to metabolic syndrome cardiovascular health. Despite these associations, the relationship between dietary manganese intake incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains unclear. In this study, connection consumption development of CKD in individuals with normal function was investigated. Method A total 135,577 participants enrolled UK Biobank were assessed. Dietary...

Key Points A higher medication burden was associated with a risk of adverse events in patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis. Medication can serve as clinically relevant indicator for cardiovascular and all-cause death on Background high is outcomes. Although ESKD have substantial burden, the relationship between number medications use clinical outcomes these remains unclear. Hence, this study aimed to investigate prognostic implications regarding Methods We analyzed 29,690 hemodialysis...
