Ren Fail 2024; 46:2349187. [PMID: 38721893 PMCID: PMC11085942 DOI: 10.1080/0886022x.2024.2349187] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Exercise research targeting chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been conducted for more than 30 years, and the benefits of exercise for CKD patients have been progressively demonstrated. This study analyzes citation classics on clinical intervention trials on exercise training and CKD to describe the research landscape and hotspots through bibliometric analysis. METHODS To identify clinical trials of exercise training interventions for CKD with more than 100 citations from the Web of Science Core Collection database. Extracted bibliometric information, participant information, and study characteristics of the included articles. The total citations, annual average citations, publication of year, author keywords, and study-related data were bibliometric analyzed and described using Excel 2019 and VOSviewer software. RESULTS A total of 30 citation classics were included, with a total citation frequency of 102 to 279 (mean ± standard deviation: 148.4 ± 49.4). The American Journal of Kidney Diseases (n = 7) published the most (n = 7) classic citations in the field of CKD exercise research, and the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology was the most cited. The hotspot of research around CKD and exercise training interventions focused on population (hemodialysis and end-stage renal disease), exercise type (resistance training, yoga, and leg-cycling), and outcomes (cardiovascular indices, physical performance, psychological status, kidney function, physical activity). Reported dropout rates ranged from 0.0% to 47.4%. CONCLUSION A bibliometric analysis of citation classics on exercise training and CKD highlights the potential benefits of exercise as a non-pharmacological therapy for patients with CKD, as well as developments and hotspots in the field.

Sleep Med 2024; 119:526-534. [PMID: 38805860 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2024.05.047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2024] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder among chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, associated with considerable morbidity. Various studies from around the globe have reported different prevalence rates. OBJECTIVE This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the prevalence of OSA and quantify the relationship between OSA and mortality risk in patients with CKD. METHODS Four databases were systematically searched, and additional references to relevant articles were manually searched. The prevalence of OSA and the mortality risk based on random-effects models were assessed using percentages and hazard ratio (HR) with a 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI). In addition, the heterogeneity between studies was assessed using I2 statistics. RESULTS A total of 44 literature (47 studies with 223,967 participants) met the eligibility criteria for the meta-analysis. The results showed that the prevalence of OSA in CKD patients was reported to be 39.3 % (95 % CI, 32.3-46.7). Among study participants in different age groups, the highest prevalence of OSA was found in CKD respondents aged 60 years or older, at 47.1 % (95 % CI 34.4-60.3). Of the eight literature (10 cohorts) that provided survival data, the pooled estimates indicated a 26.5 % (HR: 1.265; 95 % CI 1.021-1.568) higher mortality risk in subjects with OSA than CKD patients without OSA. CONCLUSIONS This systematic review and meta-analysis found that more than 1/3 of CKD patients have comorbid OSA, which increases the risk of early death in CKD patients. These results should help policymakers to provide adequate healthcare for this population. PROSPERO REGISTRATION ID CRD42023465497.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2024; 15:1375232. [PMID: 38752178 PMCID: PMC11094208 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2024.1375232] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The objective of this study was to explore the association between the ratio of serum creatinine to cystatin C to waist circumference (CCR/WC) and hypertension. Methods The study utilized data extracted from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. In the cross-sectional analysis, logistic regression analyses were employed to examine the association between the CCR/WC ratio and hypertension. By utilizing restricted cubic splines, potential non-linear associations between the CCR/WC ratio and hypertension were explored. In the longitudinal analysis, the association between CCR/WC quartiles (Q1-Q4) and the risk of new-onset hypertension was evaluated by Cox proportional-hazards models. Results In total, 7,253 participants were enrolled. The study unveiled an inverse association with hypertension, demonstrating an odds ratio (OR) of 0.29 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.23-0.37, P < 0.001). Among males, an OR of 0.38 (95% CI: 0.25-0.58, P < 0.001) was observed, while among females, an OR of 0.41 (95% CI: 0.28-0.60, P < 0.001) was noted. There was an absence of a nonlinear association between the CCR/WC ratio and hypertension. Cox regression analysis unveiled a reduced risk of hypertension in Q3 (Hazard ratios [HR]: 0.69, 95% CI: 0.58-0.82, P < 0.001) and Q4: (HR: 0.70, 95% CI: 0.59-0.83, P < 0.001) in compared to the Q1 of the CCR/WC ratio, and sex-specific analysis yielded consistent results. Conclusion This study emphasizes the potential association between an elevated CCR/WC ratio and a reduced risk of hypertension.

Clin Exp Nephrol 2024:10.1007/s10157-024-02506-6. [PMID: 38678167 DOI: 10.1007/s10157-024-02506-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/29/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Early risk stratification is necessary to prevent chronic kidney disease progression and complications. This systematic review aims to evaluate the association of soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2), a member of the interleukin-1 receptor family, with all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease and renal function deterioration among chronic kidney disease patients. METHODS PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, CENTRAL and Google Scholar were systematically searched from inception to December 20, 2023. Cohort studies examining the prognostic role of sST2 levels in pre-dialysis and dialysis patients were included. In case of 3 or more studies per outcome, conventional and dose-response meta-analyses were conducted. RESULTS Overall, 21 studies were included comprising 15,100 patients. In pre-dialysis patients, the qualitative synthesis of studies suggested that high sST2 is associated with significantly increased all-cause mortality, while evidence regarding cardiovascular events or kidney disease progression was conflicting. In the dialysis population, high sST2 was linked to an elevated risk of all-cause (Hazard ratio-HR: 3.00, 95% confidence intervals-CI: 1.95-4.61) and cardiovascular (HR: 2.38, 95% CI: 1.69-3.34) mortality. Dose-response meta-analysis suggested a log-linear association of sST2 with both all-cause (χ2: 34.65, p value < 0.001) and cardiovascular (χ2: 29.14, p value < 0.001) mortality, whereas findings regarding cardiovascular events were limited with mixed results. CONCLUSIONS High sST2 values are associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality in pre-dialysis and dialysis patients, as well as with an elevated risk of cardiovascular mortality in the dialysis population. Further studies are needed to elucidate its potential association with cardiovascular events and kidney disease progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become an increasingly important public health disease with a high incidence rate and mortality. Although several studies have explored the effectiveness of resistance exercise in improving the prognosis of CKD patients, the number of studies is still limited and the results are still controversial. OBJECTIVES We conducted this meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCT) studies to evaluate the effectiveness of resistance exercise on CKD patients. METHODS The PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched from the inception date to October 2023. The meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate 12 main indicators, including glomerular filtration rate (GFR)(ml/(min•1.73m2)), C-reactive protein (CRP) (mg/L), serum creatinine (mg/dL), hemoglobin (g/dL), Glycosylated Hemoglobin, Type A1C (HBA1c) (%), high Density Lipoprotein (HDL) (mg/dL), low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) (mg/dL), 6-min walk(m), body mass index (BMI) (kg/m2), fat-free mass (kg), fat mass (kg), grip strength (kgf). RESULTS Sixteen RCT studies were included in this meta-analysis from 875 records. GFR exhibited no significant change in CKD patients treated with resistance exercise (WMD 1.82; 95%CI -0.59 to 4.23; P = 0.139). However, 6-min walk (WMD 89.93; 95%CI 50.12 to 129.74; P = 0.000), fat-free mass (WMD 6.53; 95%CI 1.14 to 11.93; P = 0.018) and grip strength (WMD 3.97; 95%CI 1.89 to 6.05; P = 0.000) were significantly improved with resistance exercise. The level of CRP (WMD - 2.46; 95%CI -4.21 to -0.72; P = 0.006) and HBA1c (WMD - 0.46; 95%CI -0.63 to -0.29; P = 0.000) dropped significantly after resistance exercise treatment. CONCLUSIONS Resistance exercise can improve physical function, metabolic condition, inflammatory response and cardiopulmonary function in CKD patients, specifically reflected in the increase of indicators fat-free mass, grip strength, 6-min walk, as well as the decrease of indicators HBA1c and CRP.

Hatamizadeh P. From cardiorenal syndrome to nephrocardiology: The journey of exploring the interconnection between nephrology and cardiovascular medicine. Trends Cardiovasc Med 2024:S1050-1738(24)00017-3. [PMID: 38521377 DOI: 10.1016/j.tcm.2024.03.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2024] [Revised: 02/23/2024] [Accepted: 03/10/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
The knowledge about the pathophysiology of cardiorenal syndrome has evolved remarkably over the past two decades. However, cardiorenal syndrome is only one subject within a much broader field of nephrocardiology, which encompasses the interconnection between nephrology and cardiovascular medicine from nine different standpoints of pathophysiology, epidemiology, prevention, prognosis, diagnosis, therapy, monitoring, risk factors and systemic diseases. The complexities of these nine elements of the interaction between nephrology and cardiovascular medicine are not adequately addressed in either of those two fields of medicine. Nephrocardiology is an emerging field in medicine aiming at addressing those subtleties to improve prognosis and quality of life of a large and vulnerable patient population with combined cardiovascular and nephrology related conditions.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the cause of physical infirmity and thousands of deaths annually. Typically, during heart failure, cardiomyocyte mitochondria falter in terms of energy production and metabolic processing. Additionally, inflammation and the accumulation of non-contractile fibrous tissue contribute to cardiac malfunction. Melatonin, an endogenously produced molecule, experimentally reduces the initiation and progression of atherosclerotic lesions, which are often the basis of coronary artery disease. The current review critically analyzes published data related to the experimental use of melatonin to forestall coronary artery pathologies. Collectively, these studies document melatonin's anti-atherosclerotic actions in reducing LDL oxidation and triglyceride levels, lowering endothelial malfunction, limiting adhesion molecule formation, preventing macrophage polarization to the M1 pro-inflammatory phenotype, changing cellular metabolism, scavenging destructive reactive oxygen species, preventing the proliferation and invasion of arterial smooth muscle cells into the lesioned area, restricting the ingrowth of blood vessels from the vasa vasorum, and solidifying the plaque cap to reduce the chance of its rupture. Diabetic hyperglycemia, which aggravates atherosclerotic plaque formation, is also inhibited by melatonin supplementation in experimental animals. The potential value of non-toxic melatonin as a possible inhibitor of cardiac pathology in humans should be seriously considered by performing clinical trials using this multifunctional molecule.
