Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is the major peptide hormone regulator of blood calcium homeostasis. Abnormal PTH levels can be observed in patients with various congenital and acquired disorders, including chronic kidney disease (CKD). This review will focus on rare human diseases caused by PTH mutations that have provided insights into the regulation of PTH synthesis and secretion as well as the diagnostic utility of different PTH assays. RECENT FINDINGS Over the past years, numerous diseases affecting calcium and phosphate homeostasis have been defined at the molecular level that are responsible for reduced or increased serum PTH levels. The underlying genetic mutations impair parathyroid gland development, involve the PTH gene itself, or alter function of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) or its downstream signaling partners that contribute to regulation of PTH synthesis or secretion. Mutations in the pre sequence of the mature PTH peptide can, for instance, impair hormone synthesis or intracellular processing, while amino acid substitutions affecting the secreted PTH(1-84) impair PTH receptor (PTH1R) activation, or cause defective cleavage of the pro-sequence and thus secretion of a pro- PTH with much reduced biological activity. Mutations affecting the secreted hormone can alter detection by different PTH assays, thus requiring detailed knowledge of the utilized diagnostic test. SUMMARY Rare diseases affecting PTH synthesis and secretion have offered helpful insights into parathyroid biology and the diagnostic utility of commonly used PTH assays, which may have implications for the interpretation of PTH measurements in more common disorders such as CKD.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Defining the optimal parathyroid hormone (PTH) target in chronic kidney disease (CKD) is challenging, especially for bone outcomes, due to the substantial variability in the skeleton's response to PTH. Although PTH hyporesponsiveness is as integral a component of CKD-mineral bone disorder as elevated PTH levels, clinical awareness of this condition is limited. In this review, we will discuss factors and mechanisms contributing to PTH hyporesponsiveness in CKD. This knowledge may provide clues towards a personalized approach to treating secondary hyperparathyroidism in CKD. RECENT FINDINGS Indicates a link between disturbed phosphate metabolism and impaired skeletal calcium sensing receptor signaling as an important mediator of PTH hyporesponsiveness in CKD. Further, cohort studies with diverse populations point towards differences in mineral metabolism control, rather than genetic or environmental factors, as drivers of the variability of PTH responsiveness. IN SUMMARY Skeletal PTH hyporesponsiveness in CKD has a multifactorial origin, shows important interindividual variability, and is challenging to estimate in clinical practice. The variability in skeletal responsiveness compromises PTH as a biomarker of bone turnover, especially when considering populations that are heterogeneous in ethnicity, demography, kidney function, primary kidney disease and mineral metabolism control, and in patients treated with bone targeting drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tremendous scientific research has been conducted on chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD), while only a few bibliometric analyses have been conducted in this field. In this study, we aim to identify 100 top-cited articles on CKD-MBD and analyze their main characteristics quantitatively. METHODS Web of Science was used to search the 100 top-cited articles on CKD-MBD. The following data were extracted and analyzed from the selected articles: author, country of origin, institutions, article type, publication journal, publication year, citation frequency, and keywords. RESULTS Among the 100 top-cited articles, the number of citations ranged between 181 to 2157, with an average number of citations of approximately 476. These articles were published in 23 different journals, with Kidney International publishing the most articles (n = 32). The largest contributor was the United States (n = 63), which was also the country that conducted the most collaborative studies with other nations. The University of Washington contributed the largest number of articles (n = 37). Block GA was the most common first-author (n = 7). The majority of articles were clinical research articles (n = 73), followed by reviews (n = 15). Although almost half of the articles had no keywords, the most concerned research direction was CKD-associated bone disease. CONCLUSION This is the first bibliometric study of the 100 top-cited articles on CKD-MBD. This study provides the main academic interests and research trends associated with CKD-MBD research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Various medical conditions and the drugs used to treat them have been shown to impede or complicate dental implant surgery. It is crucial to carefully monitor the medical status and potential post-operative complications of patients with systemic diseases, particularly elderly patients, to minimize the risk of health complications that may arise. AIM The purpose of this study was to review the existing evidence on the viability of dental implants in patients with systemic diseases and to provide practical recommendations to achieve the best possible results in the corresponding patient population. METHODS The information for our study was compiled using data from PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Google Scholar databases and searched separately for each systemic disease included in our work until October 2023. An additional manual search was also performed to increase the search sensitivity. Only English-language publications were included and assessed according to titles, abstracts and full texts. RESULTS In total, 6784 studies were found. After checking for duplicates and full-text availability, screening for the inclusion criteria and manually searching reference lists, 570 articles remained to be considered in this study. CONCLUSION In treating patients with systemic conditions, the cost-benefit analysis should consider the patient's quality of life and expected lifespan. The success of dental implants depends heavily on ensuring appropriate maintenance therapy, ideal oral hygiene standards, no smoking and avoiding other risk factors. Indications and contraindications for dental implants in cases of systemic diseases are yet to be more understood; broader and hardcore research needs to be done for a guideline foundation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study undertook a scoping review of research on blood fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) concentrations in healthy non-azotemic cats and cats with chronic kidney disease (CKD) to describe the volume and nature of existing literature, to determine whether published studies provide adequate evidence to support the use of FGF-23 as a biomarker in clinical practice and to identify any existing gaps in knowledge. METHODS PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines were used to design and perform the scoping review. Online databases were used to identify observational and clinical studies of blood FGF-23 concentrations in healthy cats and cats with CKD published before December 2022. Study and population characteristics and descriptive data on FGF-23 concentrations were extracted. RESULTS A total of 205 publications were reviewed; 17 were retained for inclusion. Most studies were retrospective. Most studies included cats with International Renal Interest Society stage 2-4 CKD, with some variation. Key concepts explored in the literature include FGF-23 concentrations by CKD stage, effect of dietary phosphate restriction on FGF-23 concentrations, relationship between FGF-23 concentrations and blood phosphorus, calcium and magnesium concentrations, and FGF-23 concentrations in cats with progressive CKD. FGF-23 concentrations tended to be higher in cats with CKD compared with healthy cats, with an overlap between healthy and CKD populations, and there was significant variation within stages of CKD. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE FGF-23 is a biomarker of interest for the management and monitoring of phosphate overload in cats. Studies support several potential clinical applications for measuring FGF-23 concentration in practice; however, evidence is limited. Research on FGF-23 in cats with CKD would benefit from longitudinal, prospective studies that standardize CKD diagnosis and categorize cats by stage using current guidelines. Studies should include cats with early-stage, non-azotemic CKD and use commercially available assays so such results are comparable across studies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) refers to a group of bone morphological patterns that derive from distinct pathophysiological mechanisms. Whether the ROD subtypes influence long-term outcomes is unknown. Our objective was to explore the relationship between ROD and clinical outcomes. METHODS This study is a subanalysis of the Brazilian Registry of Bone Biopsies (REBRABO). Samples from individual patients were classified as having osteitis fibrosa (OF), mixed uremic osteodystrophy (MUO), adynamic bone disease (ABD), osteomalacia (OM), normal/minor alterations, and according to turnover/mineralization/volume (TMV) system. Patients were followed for 3.4 yrs. Clinical outcomes were: bone fractures, hospitalization, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), and death. RESULTS We enrolled 275 participants, of which 248 (90%) were on dialysis. At follow-up, 28 bone fractures, 97 hospitalizations, 44 MACE, and 70 deaths were recorded. ROD subtypes were not related to outcomes. CONCLUSION The incidence of clinical outcomes did not differ between the types of ROD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study examined the effects of animal protein- and plant protein-rich diets on postprandial phosphorus metabolism in healthy male subjects. METHODS The study was conducted by randomised parallel-group comparison of healthy men aged 21-24 years. In Study 1, participants were divided into two groups and consumed either a 70% animal protein diet (AD, n = 6) or a 70% plant protein diet (PD, n = 6). In Study 2, participants were divided into three groups and consumed either AD (n = 10), PD (n = 10) or AD + DF, a 70% animal protein diet loaded with the same amount of fibre as PD (n = 9). The phosphorus contents of the diets used in this study were nearly equivalent (AD, 710.1 mg; PD, 709.7 mg; AD + DF, 708.9 mg). Blood and urine samples were collected before, and 2 and 4 h after the meal to measure phosphorus and calcium levels. RESULTS In Study 1, PD consumption resulted in lower blood and urinary phosphorus concentrations 2 h postprandially compared with AD (p < 0.05). In Study 2, blood phosphorus levels in AD + DF after the diet remained lower, but not significantly so compared with AD, and urinary phosphorus levels were significantly lower 2 h postprandially (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS A plant protein-rich diet reduced rapid postprandial increases in blood and urinary phosphorus concentrations compared with the animal protein-rich diets, suggesting that dietary fibre may play a partial role in the postprandial decreases in blood and urinary phosphorus concentrations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Data regarding vascular calcification (VC) in contemporary peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients is scarce. Bone-vascular axis has been demonstrated in hemodialysis (HD). However, studies showing the link between bone disease and VC in PD patients are lacking. The role of sclerostin, dickkopf-related protein 1 (DKK-1), receptor activator for nuclear factor kB ligand and osteoprotegerin (OPG) in VC in PD remains to clarify. MATERIALS AND METHODS Bone biopsy was performed in 47 prevalent PD patients with histomorphometric analysis. Patients were submitted to pelvis and hands X-ray to evaluate VC using the Adragão score (AS). Relevant clinical and biochemical data was collected. RESULTS Thirteen patients (27.7%) had positive AS (AS≥1). Patients with VC were significantly older (58.9 vs. 50.4 years, p=0.011), had a lower dialysis dose (KT/V 2.0 vs. 2.4, p=0.025) and a higher glycosylated hemoglobin (7.2 vs. 5.4%, p=0.001). There was not any laboratorial parameter of mineral and bone disease used in clinical practice different between patients with or without VC. All diabetic patients had VC but only 8.1% of non-diabetic had VC (p<0.001). Patients with VC showed significantly higher erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) (91.1 vs. 60.0mm/h, p=0.001), sclerostin (2250.0 vs. 1745.8pg/mL, p=0.035), DKK-1 (1451.6 vs. 1042.9pg/mL, p=0.041) and OPG levels (2904.9 vs. 1518.2pg/mL, p=0.002). On multivariate analysis, only ESR remained statistically significant (OR 1.07; 95% CI 1.01-1.14; p=0.022). Bone histomorphometric findings were not different in patients with VC. There was no correlation between bone formation rate and AS (r=-0.039; p=0.796). CONCLUSION The presence of VC was not associated with bone turnover and volume evaluated by bone histomorphometry. Inflammation and diabetes seem to play a more relevant role in VC in PD.

Abstract
Background The links between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the high burden of cardiovascular disease remain unclear. We aimed to explore the association between selected inflammatory and angiogenic biomarkers, kidney function and long-term outcome in patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and to test the hypothesis that CKD status modifies this association. Methods A total of 1293 ACS patients hospitalized between 2008 and 2015 were followed until 31 December 2017. Plasma was collected on days 1-3 after admission. A total of 13 biomarkers were a priori identified and analysed with two proteomic methods, proximity extension assay or multiple reaction monitoring mass spectrometry. Boxplots and multiple linear regression models were used to study associations between biomarkers and kidney function and adjusted standardized Cox regression with an interaction term for CKD was used to assess whether CKD modified the association between biomarkers and major adverse cardiovascular events and death (MACE+). Results The concentrations of nine biomarkers-endothelial cell-specific molecule-1 (ESM-1), fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23), fractalkine (CX3CL1), interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA), interleukin-18 (IL-18), monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), placenta growth factor (PlGF), transmembrane immunoglobulin 1 (TIM-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA)-were inversely associated with kidney function. ESM-1, FGF-23 and TIM-1 showed associations with MACE+. Only FGF23 remained independently associated after adjustment for the other biomarkers (hazard ratio per standard deviation increase 1.34; 95% Bonferroni corrected confidence interval 1.19-1.50). None of the biomarkers showed an interaction with CKD. Conclusions The concentrations of 9 of the 13 prespecified inflammatory and angiogenic proteomic biomarkers increased when kidney function declined. Only FGF-23 demonstrated an independent association with MACE+, and this association was not modified by CKD status. These findings further support FGF-23 as an independent prognostic marker in ACS patients with and without CKD.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is among the leading causes of death and disability, affecting an estimated 800 million adults globally. The underlying pathophysiology of CKD is complex creating challenges to its management. Primary risk factors for the development and progression of CKD include diabetes mellitus, hypertension, age, obesity, diet, inflammation, and physical inactivity. The high prevalence of diabetes and hypertension in patients with CKD increases the risk for secondary consequences such as cardiovascular disease and peripheral neuropathy. Moreover, the increased prevalence of obesity and chronic levels of systemic inflammation in CKD have downstream effects on critical cellular functions regulating homeostasis. The combination of these factors results in the deterioration of health and functional capacity in those living with CKD. Exercise offers protective benefits for the maintenance of health and function with age, even in the presence of CKD. Despite accumulating data supporting the implementation of exercise for the promotion of health and function in patients with CKD, a thorough description of the responses and adaptations to exercise at the cellular, system, and whole body levels is currently lacking. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to provide an up-to-date comprehensive review of the effects of exercise training on vascular endothelial progenitor cells at the cellular level; cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, and neural factors at the system level; and physical function, frailty, and fatigability at the whole body level in patients with CKD.

Abstract
A major complication of chronic kidney disease is the derangement of mineral metabolism, leading to increased risk of fractures and cardiovascular mortality. Current therapeutic regimens are focused on reducing parathyroid hormone levels caused by secondary hyperparathyroidism, and the active vitamin D metabolite l,25(OH)2D, with limited success. It may be a more effective approach, however, if we could target the delayed response of parathyroid hormone in the early retention of phosphate following loss of renal function.We propose intermittent administration (even in stage 2 chronic kidney disease) of parathyroid hormone, known for its bone anabolic effects compared to the catabolic effects of the continuously elevated parathyroid hormone associated with the hyperparathyroid state, to mitigate the retention of phosphate. This approach may prevent the compensatory responses of the other two major calcium- and phosphate-regulating hormones (FGF-23 and l,25(OH)2D) that lead to further worsening of the derangement of mineral metabolism.In addition to its strong theoretical basis, there are data supporting the need for further research focused on the use of intermittent parathyroid hormone in the management of chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder.

Abstract
Purpose This study explored the pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and safety of evocalcet (KHK7580), a new calcimimetic agent, in healthy Chinese subjects following single and multiple doses. Methods This was a single-center, open-label phase I trial conducted in China. The study started from the single-dose cohorts (1, 3, 6, 12 mg evocalcet, step-by-step administration) and proceeded to the multiple-dose cohort (6 mg evocalcet once daily for eight days). Blood and urine samples were collected at the designated time points for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analysis. Safety was evaluated by treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), clinical laboratory tests, vital signs, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and ophthalmological examination. Results Among 42 enrolled subjects, eight in each single-dose cohort and 10 in multiple-dose cohort, 40 subjects completed the study. In single-dose cohorts, tmax was 1.00-2.00 h and declined biphasically. The mean t1/2 was 15.99-20.84 h. Evocalcet exposure in AUC0-inf, AUC0-t, and Cmax showed a dose-proportional increase. In the multiple-dose cohort, tmax was 2.00 h and declined biphasically after multiple administrations. The accumulation was negligible. Ctrough levels were similar across days and steady from 24 hours after the first administration. The mean t1/2 was 15.59 h. PD analysis showed that evocalcet decreased intact parathyroid hormone and corrected calcium levels in a dose-dependent manner. Seventeen (40.5%) subjects reported TEAEs. No serious or severe TEAE occurred. Conclusion In healthy Chinese subjects, evocalcet demonstrated dose-dependent PK and PD properties and was well-tolerated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal dialysate calcium (Ca) concentration for patients undergoing hemodialysis remains inconclusive, particularly concerning cardiovascular protection. METHODS We conducted a systematic review of 19 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and a meta-analysis of eight RCTs to determine the optimal dialysate Ca concentration for cardiovascular protection. We compared outcomes in patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis treated with either a low-Ca dialysate (LCD) (1.125 or 1.25 mmol/L) or a high-Ca dialysate (HCD) (1.5 or 1.75 mmol/L). The outcomes were coronary artery calcification score (CACS), all-cause and cardiovascular death, cardiovascular function and structure, and serum biochemical parameters. RESULTS There was no significant difference between LCD and HCD concerning CACS (standardized mean difference [SMD] = -0.16, 95% confidence interval [CI]: [-0.38, 0.07]), the risk of all-cause death, and cardiovascular death in patients treated with chronic maintenance hemodialysis. Conversely, LCD was associated with a significantly lower intima-media thickness (SMD = -0.49, 95% CI [-0.94, -0.05]) and pulse wave velocity than HCD (SMD = -0.86, 95% CI [-1.21, -0.51]). Furthermore, LCD significantly decreased serum Ca levels (mean difference [MD] = 0.52 mg/dL, 95% CI [0.19, 0.85]) and increased serum parathyroid hormone levels (MD = 44.8 pg/mL, 95% CI [16.2, 73.3]) compared with HCD. Notably, most RCTs examined in our analysis did not include patients receiving calcimimetics. CONCLUSIONS Our meta-analysis showed no significant differences in cardiovascular calcification and death between LCD and HCD and revealed a paucity of RCTs on dialysate Ca concentrations, including those involving patients on calcimimetics, indicating the urgent need for further studies.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects > 10% of the global adult population and significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), which remains the leading cause of death in this population. The development and progression of CVD-compared to the general population-is premature and accelerated, manifesting as coronary artery disease, heart failure, arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death. CKD and CV disease combine to cause multimorbid cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) due to contributions from shared risk factors, including systolic hypertension, diabetes mellitus, obesity, and dyslipidemia. Additional neurohormonal activation, innate immunity, and inflammation contribute to progressive cardiac and renal deterioration, reflecting the strong bidirectional interaction between these organ systems. A shared molecular pathophysiology-including inflammation, oxidative stress, senescence, and hemodynamic fluctuations characterise all types of CRS. This review highlights the evolving paradigm and recent advances in our understanding of the molecular biology of CRS, outlining the potential for disease-specific therapies and biomarker disease detection.

Abstract
Bone strength is determined not only by bone quantity [bone mineral density (BMD)] but also by bone quality, including matrix composition, collagen fiber arrangement, microarchitecture, geometry, mineralization, and bone turnover, among others. These aspects influence elasticity, the load-bearing and repair capacity of bone, and microcrack propagation and are thus key to fractures and their avoidance. In chronic kidney disease (CKD)-associated osteoporosis, factors traditionally associated with a lower bone mass (advanced age or hypogonadism) often coexist with non-traditional factors specific to CKD (uremic toxins or renal osteodystrophy, among others), which will have an impact on bone quality. The gold standard for measuring BMD is dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, which is widely accepted in the general population and is also capable of predicting fracture risk in CKD. Nevertheless, a significant number of fractures occur in the absence of densitometric World Health Organization (WHO) criteria for osteoporosis, suggesting that methods that also evaluate bone quality need to be considered in order to achieve a comprehensive assessment of fracture risk. The techniques for measuring bone quality are limited by their high cost or invasive nature, which has prevented their implementation in clinical practice. A bone biopsy, high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography, and impact microindentation are some of the methods established to assess bone quality. Herein, we review the current evidence in the literature with the aim of exploring the factors that affect both bone quality and bone quantity in CKD and describing available techniques to assess them.

Abstract
Kidney failure with replacement therapy and cardiovascular disease are frequently comorbid. In patients with kidney failure with replacement therapy, cardiovascular disease is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality. Conventional thrice-weekly in-center dialysis confers risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including acute hemodynamic fluctuations and rapid shifts in volume and solute concentration. Home hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis (PD) may offer benefits in attenuation of cardiovascular disease risk factors primarily through improved volume and BP control, reduction (or slowing progression) of left ventricular mass, decreased myocardial stunning, and improved bone and mineral metabolism. Importantly, although trial data are available for several of these risk factors for home hemodialysis, evidence for PD is limited. Among patients with prevalent cardiovascular disease, home hemodialysis and PD may also have potential benefits. PD may offer particular advantages in heart failure given it removes volume directly from the splanchnic circulation, thus offering an efficient method of relieving intravascular congestion. PD also avoids the risk of blood stream infections in patients with cardiac devices or venous wires. We recognize that both home hemodialysis and PD are also associated with potential risks, and these are described in more detail. We conclude with a discussion of barriers to home dialysis and the critical importance of interdisciplinary care models as one component of advancing health equity with respect to home dialysis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is characterized by bone abnormalities, vascular calcification, and some other complications. Although there are diagnostic criteria for CKD-MBD, in situations when conducting target feature examining are unavailable, there is a need to investigate and discover alternative biochemical criteria that are easy to obtain. Moreover, studying the correlations between the newly discovered biomarkers and the existing ones may provide insights into the underlying molecular mechanisms of CKD-MBD. METHODS We collected a cohort of 116 individuals, consisting of three subtypes of CKD-MBD: calcium abnormality, phosphorus abnormality, and PTH abnormality. To identify the best biomarker panel for discrimination, we conducted six machine learning prediction methods and employed a sequential forward feature selection approach for each subtype. Additionally, we collected a separate prospective cohort of 114 samples to validate the discriminative power of the trained prediction models. RESULTS Using machine learning under cross validation setting, the feature selection method selected a concise biomarker panel for each CKD-MBD subtype as well as for the general one. Using the consensus of these features, best area under ROC curve reached up to 0.95 for the training dataset and 0.74 for the perspective dataset, respectively. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION For the first time, we utilized machine learning methods to analyze biochemical criteria associated with CKD-MBD. Our aim was to identify alternative biomarkers that could serve not only as early detection indicators for CKD-MBD, but also as potential candidates for studying the underlying molecular mechanisms of the condition.

Abstract
Kidney transplantation is the preferred gold standard modality of treatment for kidney failure. Bone disease after kidney transplantation is highly prevalent in patients living with a kidney transplant and is associated with high rates of hip fractures. Fractures are associated with increased healthcare costs, morbidity and mortality. Post-transplant bone disease (PTBD) includes renal osteodystrophy, osteoporosis, osteonecrosis and bone fractures. PTBD is complex as it encompasses pre-existing chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disease and compounding factors after transplantation, including the use of immunosuppression and the development of de novo bone disease. After transplantation, the persistence of secondary and tertiary hyperparathyroidism, renal osteodystrophy, relative vitamin D deficiency and high levels of fibroblast growth factor-23 contribute to post-transplant bone disease. Risk assessment includes identifying both general risk factors and kidney-specific risk factors. Diagnosis is complex as the gold standard bone biopsy with double-tetracycline labelling to diagnose the PTBD subtype is not always readily available. Therefore, alternative diagnostic tools may be used to aid its diagnosis. Both non-pharmacological and pharmacological therapy can be employed to treat PTBD. In this review, we will discuss pathophysiology, risk assessment, diagnosis and management strategies to manage PTBD after kidney transplantation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic systemic inflammation was proposed as a critical factor in the development of osteoporosis. We aim to investigate the effect of the DII on bone mineral density (BMD) in CKD patients. METHODS 2276 participants from NHANES were enrolled. The DII score was calculated based on a single 24-h dietary recall. Total BMD was measured using Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry. A multiple-stepwise linear regression model was used to determine associations between BMD and DII in CKD patients. RESULTS When DII >0.35, a negative correlation was obtained between DII and BMD (all β = -0.008 and p < 0.05). In subgroup analysis, BMD levels decreased across increasing tertiles of the DII for patients with non-osteoporosis, postmenopause, and low eGFR (p for trend ≤0.01). CONCLUSION Higher consumption of pro-inflammatory diet correlates negatively with the BMD levels in CKD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tertiary hyperparathyroidism describes the autonomous and excessive secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH) by the parathyroid glands after longstanding secondary hyperparathyroidism in chronic kidney disease. Brown tumors are a sign of uncontrolled hyperparathyroidism. In this case, we have reported a refractory and destructive hyperparathyroidism storm. Also, it presented with atypical onset and unexpected adenoma location. CASE PRESENTATION A 37-year-old man was diagnosed with end-stage kidney disease 22 years ago. He has been undergoing dialysis treatment since that time. Recently, he was admitted to the ophthalmology department due to the unilateral anterior bulging of the right eye and drooping of the eyelid. Magnetic resonance imaging exhibited an extraconal mass lesion located in the right orbital posterior superolateral position. Computerized tomography scans considered expansile bone lesion with peripheral calcification and originating from the sphenoid wing. The bone mass lesion was resected via craniotomy due to the compressive effect. The pathological findings were consistent with brown tumors. Plasma intact PTH level was 4557 pg/mL. The patient informed that he underwent parathyroidectomy and two leg fractures operation in a medical query. Parathyroid scintigraphy determined three distinct foci consistent with adenomas and one of them was in mediastenum. Second parathyroidectomy was recommended to the patient but the patient refused surgery. Despite his medication and dialysis regimen being revised, PTH levels were maintained at higher levels in follow-up. CONCLUSIONS We presented a hyperparathyroidism case that was resistant to all treatments and exhibited all the severe complications in a long-term dialysis patient. Furthermore, this case has revealed the importance and difficulty of secondary hyperparathyroidism management.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a growing health concern with a complex etiological landscape. Among the numerous factors implicated, vitamin D binding protein (VDBP) has emerged as a focal point of scientific studies because of its critical role in vitamin D metabolism and immune modulation. The relationship between VDBP and CKD reveals a complex web of molecular and biochemical details that have great potential for improving diagnostic understanding and treatment strategies for CKD. This review summarizes the multifaceted roles of VDBP, including its molecular dynamics, interactions with vitamin D, and subsequent implications for kidney function. The main focus of the discussion is how VDBP affects bone mineral homeostasis, highlighted by the dysregulation of calcium and phosphorus metabolism, which is a part of the pathophysiology of CKD. The discussion also touches on the immunomodulatory scope of VDBP and how it may reduce the chronic inflammatory environment that accompanies CKD. The diagnostic potential of VDBP as a biomarker for CKD has been rigorously examined, highlighting its capacity to improve early detection and prognostic assessment. Modification of VDBP activity has the potential to slow the course of CKD and improve patient outcomes. Furthermore, a detailed examination of the genetic polymorphisms of VDBP and their implications for CKD susceptibility and treatment responsiveness provides a perspective for personalized medical methods. Prospects for the future depend on the expansion of studies that try to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the VDBP-CKD interaction, in addition to clinical trials that evaluate the effectiveness of VDBP-focused treatment approaches.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this study, we examined the mandibular trabecular bone structures by performing fractal dimension (FD) analysis in patients who underwent renal transplantation (RTx). METHODS Our study is an observational study with 69 RTx patients and 35 control group patients. The mean FD values of the patient and control groups were calculated and compared. In addition, biochemical parathyroid hormone (PTH), serum calcium, phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and vitamin-D parameters and FD values of both groups were analyzed. RESULTS FD values were significantly lower in the patient group than in the healthy group (p < .05). In the RTx group compared to the control group, ALP (90.71 ± 34.25-66.54 ± 16.8, respectively) (p < .001) and PTH (75.76 ± 38.01-38.17 ± 12.39, respectively) (p < .001) values were higher. There was a positive correlation between the FD values and ALP (rspearman = .305, p = .011) and a negative correlation between FD values and vitamin-D (rspearman = .287, p = .017) of patients with RTx. CONCLUSION FD values were found to be lower in patients who underwent RTx compared to the control group. It should be considered that FD analysis can be a method that can be used to evaluate trabecular bone structure in patients undergoing RTx.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) poses a global health challenge, engendering various physiological and metabolic shifts that significantly impact health and escalate the susceptibility to severe illnesses. This comprehensive review delves into the intricate complexities of CKD, scrutinizing its influence on cellular growth homeostasis, hormonal equilibrium, wasting, malnutrition, and its interconnectedness with inflammation, oxidative stress, and cardiovascular diseases. Exploring the genetic, birth-related, and comorbidity factors associated with CKD, alongside considerations of metabolic disturbances, anemia, and malnutrition, the review elucidates how CKD orchestrates cellular growth control. A pivotal focus lies on the nexus between CKD and insulin resistance, where debates persist regarding its chronological relationship with impaired kidney function. The prevalence of insulin abnormalities in CKD is emphasized, contributing to glucose intolerance and raising questions about its role as a precursor or consequence. Moreover, the review sheds light on disruptions in the growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor axis in CKD, underscoring the heightened vulnerability to illness and mortality in cases of severe growth retardation. Wasting, a prevalent concern affecting up to 75% of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, is analyzed, elucidating the manifestations of cachexia and its impact on appetite, energy expenditure, and protein reserves. Taste disturbances in CKD, affecting sour, umami, and salty tastes, are explored for their implications on food palatability and nutritional status. Independent of age and gender, these taste alterations have the potential to sway dietary choices, further complicating the management of CKD. The intricate interplay between CKD, inflammation, oxidative stress, and cardiovascular diseases is unraveled, emphasizing the profound repercussions on overall health. Additionally, the review extends its analysis to CKD's broader impact on cognitive function, emotional well-being, taste perception, and endothelial dysfunction. Concluding with an emphasis on dietary interventions as crucial components in CKD management, this comprehensive review navigates the multifaceted dimensions of CKD, providing a nuanced understanding essential for developing targeted therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Dietary inflammation index (DII) is an epidemiological survey tool to evaluate dietary inflammation potential. Osteoporosis, whose development is deeply affected by inflammation, may be also affected by dietary inflammatory patterns. However, the relationship between DII and osteoporosis is unclear for chronic kidney disease (CKD) population. Our study involved 526 CKD patients from the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). DII levels were stratified into four quantile groups. Multivariable regression models were used to examine the association between DII and osteoporosis. Restricted cubic splines and subgroup analysis were additionally adopted. Results showed that the overall prevalence of osteoporosis among CKD patients was 25.3%. After fully adjusted, OR (95% confidence interval) for Q4 group compared with Q3 (reference group) in total and female population were 2.09 (1.05, 4.23) and 2.80 (1.14, 7.08), respectively. Subgroup analysis indicated that these results had no interaction with age, gender, body mass index (BMI), renal function, urinary protein, calcium, phosphorus and total 25-hydroxyvitamin D. DII was negatively correlated with lumbar spine bone mineral density (BMD) in CKD population (P < 0.05). Therefore, in CKD patients, higher DII was associated with higher osteoporosis risk and lower BMD of lumber spine, especially in female. Anti-inflammatory diet patterns may be a protective intervention for some CKD-related osteoporosis.

Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the biomechanical and histomorphological features of mandibles in an adenine-induced chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) rat model of CKD. A total of 14 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into the following two groups: control group and CKD group. At the end of the sixth week, all rats were euthanized, and serum was collected for biochemical marker tests. Macroscopic bone growth and biomechanical parameters were measured in the right hemimandible, while the left hemimandible was used for bone histomorphometric analysis. Compared to the control group, the CKD group showed a significant increase in serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, and serum parathyroid hormone at the end of the sixth week. The biomechanical structural properties significantly decreased in the CKD group compared to the control group. Bone histomorphometric analysis indicated that the trabecular bone volume of rats in the CKD group was significantly lower than that of the control group. In the CKD groups, the bone formation parameters of the trabecular bone were significantly increased, while the bone mineralization apposition rates of both the trabecular bone and periosteal cortical bone were significantly increased. The rat CKD model showed deteriorated structural mechanics, low trabecular bone volume, high trabecular bone formation, increased trabecular bone mineralization apposition rate, and increased cortical bone mineralization apposition rate, which met the characteristics of osteitis fibrosa, indicating that this model is a useful tool for the study of mandible diseases in CKD patients.

Abstract
Objectives Chronic kidney disease (CKD) complicated by secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is associated with an increased risk of fragility fractures. Etelcalcetide (EC) is a treatment for SHPT that reduces serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. However, the effects of combined treatment with osteoporosis drugs such as teriparatide (TPTD) remain unclear. This study investigates the combined effects of EC and TPTD on bone in CKD model rats. Methods The CKD model was established in 8-week-old male Wistar rats by feeding them a 0.75% adenine diet for 4 weeks. At 20 weeks of age, the rats were divided into 4 groups (N = 9-10 in each group): CKD group (vehicle administration), TPTD group (30 μg/kg, 3 times/week), EC group (0.6 mg/kg, daily), and Comb group (TPTD and EC combined). EC was injected for 12 weeks starting at 20 weeks of age, and TPTD was injected for 8 weeks starting at 24 weeks of age. After treatment, the followings were evaluated: bone mineral density, bone strength, biochemical tests, bone and fat histomorphometry, and micro-computed tomography. Results In CKD model rats, the combination of EC and TPTD was more effective in increasing cortical bone thickness and bone strength and inhibiting porosity. In addition, the combined treatment decreased bone marrow adiposity and fibrosis, and it increased bone mass and improved bone microstructure in trabecular bone. Conclusions With the observed benefits such as improved bone mass, bone strength, structural properties, and bone marrow adiposity, combination therapy may be a potential way to improve bone fragility in CKD.

Abstract
In-depth understanding of intra- and postdialytic phosphate kinetics is important to adjust treatment regimens in hemodialysis. We aimed to modify and validate a three-compartment phosphate kinetic model to individual patient data and assess the temporal robustness. Intradialytic phosphate samples were collected from the plasma and dialysate of 12 patients during two treatments (HD1 and HD2). 2-h postdialytic plasma samples were collected in four of the patients. First, the model was fitted to HD1 samples from each patient to estimate the mass transfer coefficients. Second, the best fitted model in each patient case was validated on HD2 samples. The best model fits were determined from the coefficient of determination (R2 ) values. When fitted to intradialytic samples only, the median (interquartile range) R2 values were 0.985 (0.959-0.997) and 0.992 (0.984-0.994) for HD1 and HD2, respectively. When fitted to both intra- and postdialytic samples, the results were 0.882 (0.838-0.929) and 0.963 (0.951-0.976) for HD1 and HD2, respectively. Eight patients demonstrated a higher R2 value for HD2 than for HD1. The model seems promising to predict individual plasma phosphate in hemodialysis patients. The results also show good temporal robustness of the model. Further modifications and validation on a larger sample are needed.

Abstract
Background Plasma (p-)activin A is elevated in chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD). Activin A inhibition ameliorates CKD-MBD complications (vascular calcification and bone disease) in rodent CKD models. We examined whether p-activin A was associated with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), all-cause mortality and CKD-MBD complications in CKD patients. Methods The study included 916 participants (741 patients and 175 controls) from the prospective Copenhagen CKD cohort. Comparisons of p-activin A with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), coronary and thoracic aorta Agatston scores, and bone mineral density (BMD) were evaluated by univariable linear regression using Spearman's rank correlation, analysis of covariance and ordinal logistic regression with adjustments. Association of p-activin A with rates of MACE and all-cause mortality was evaluated by the Aalen-Johansen or Kaplan-Meier estimator, with subsequent multiple Cox regression analyses. Results P-activin A was increased by CKD stage 3 (124-225 pg/mL, P < .001) and correlated inversely with eGFR (r = -0.53, P < 0.01). P-activin A was associated with all-cause mortality [97 events, hazard ratio 1.55 (95% confidence interval 1.04; 2.32), P < 0.05] after adjusting for age, sex, diabetes mellitus (DM) and eGFR. Median follow-up was 4.36 (interquartile range 3.64-4.75) years. The association with MACE was not significant after eGFR adjustment. Agatston scores and BMD were not associated with p-activin A. Conclusion P-activin A increased with declining kidney function and was associated with all-cause mortality independently of age, sex, DM and eGFR. No association with MACE, vascular calcification or BMD was demonstrated.

Abstract
Objective: The pathogenesis of renal osteopathy and cardiovascular disease suggests the disordered bone-vessel axis in chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD). However, the mechanism of the bone-vessel axis in CKD-MBD remains unclear.Methods: We established a CKD-MBD rat model to observe the pathophysiological phenotype of the bone-vessel axis and performed RNA sequencing of aortas to identify novel targets of the bone-vessel axis in CKD-MBD.Results: The microarchitecture of the femoral trabecular bone deteriorated and alveolar bone loss was aggravated in CKD-MBD rats. The intact parathyroid hormone and alkaline phosphatase levels increased, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 levels decreased, and intact fibroblast growth factor-23 levels did not increase in CKD-MBD rats at 16 weeks; other bone metabolic parameters in the serum demonstrated dynamic characteristics. With calcium deposition in the abdominal aortas of CKD-MBD rats, RNA sequencing of the aortas revealed a significant decrease in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor type 2 (ITPR2) gene levels in CKD-MBD rats. A similar trend was observed in rat aortic smooth muscle cells. As a secretory protein, ITPR2 serum levels decreased at 4 weeks and slightly increased without statistical differences at 16 weeks in CKD-MBD rats. ITPR2 serum levels were significantly increased in patients with vascular calcification, negatively correlated with blood urea nitrogen levels, and positively correlated with serum tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase 5b levels.Conclusion: These findings provide preliminary insights into the role of ITPR2 in the bone-vessel axis in CKD-MBD. Thus, ITPR2 may be a potential target of the bone-vessel axis in CKD-MBD.

Abstract
Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) starts early and progresses with further loss of kidney function in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). There are four distinct types of ROD based on undecalcified bone biopsy results. Adynamic bone disease and osteomalacia are the predominant forms of low bone turnover, while hyperparathyroid bone disease and mixed uremic osteodystrophy (MUO) are typically associated with high bone turnover. MUO is a prevalent but poorly described pathology that demonstrates evidence of osteomalacia on top of the high bone formation/resorption. The prevalence of MUO ranges from 5 to 63% among different studies. The pathogenesis of MUO is multi-factorial. Altered phosphate homeostasis, hypocalcemia, vitamin D deficiency, increased FGF-23, interleukins 1 and 6, TNF-α, amyloid, and heavy metal accumulation are the main inducers of MUO. The clinical findings of MUO are usually non-specific. The use of non-invasive testing such as bone turnover markers and imaging techniques might help to suspect MUO. However, it is usually impossible to precisely diagnose this condition without performing bone biopsy. The principal management of MUO is to control the maladaptive hyperparathyroidism along with correcting any nutritional mineral deficiencies that may induce mineralization defect. MUO is a common but still poorly understood bone pathology category; it demonstrates the complexity and difficulty in understanding ROD. A large prospective bone biopsy-based studies are needed for better identification as proper diagnosis and management would improve the outcome of patients with MUO.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective is to update recommendations for prevention and treatment of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) for patients with rheumatic or nonrheumatic conditions receiving >3 months treatment with glucocorticoids (GCs) ≥2.5 mg daily. METHODS An updated systematic literature review was performed for clinical questions on nonpharmacologic, pharmacologic treatments, discontinuation of medications, and sequential therapy. Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach was used to rate the certainty of evidence. A Voting Panel achieved ≥70% consensus on the direction (for or against) and strength (strong or conditional) of recommendations. RESULTS For adults beginning or continuing >3 months of GC treatment, we strongly recommend as soon as possible after initiation of GCs, initial assessment of fracture risks with clinical fracture assessment, bone mineral density with vertebral fracture assessment or spinal x-ray, and Fracture Risk Assessment Tool if ≥40 years old. For adults at medium, high, or very high fracture risk, we strongly recommend pharmacologic treatment. Choice of oral or intravenous bisphosphonates, denosumab, or parathyroid hormone analogs should be made by shared decision-making. Anabolic agents are conditionally recommended as initial therapy for those with high and very high fracture risk. Recommendations are made for special populations, including children, people with organ transplants, people who may become pregnant, and people receiving very high-dose GC treatment. New recommendations for both discontinuation of osteoporosis therapy and sequential therapies are included. CONCLUSION This guideline provides direction for clinicians and patients making treatment decisions for management of GIOP. These recommendations should not be used to limit or deny access to therapies.

Abstract
AIM We estimated the relationship between routine biochemical laboratory parameters with static bone histomorphometric parameters and their high and low bone turnover capacity predictability in hemodialysis patients. METHOD It was a single-center cross-sectional study, included 28 hemodialysis patients. The routine biochemical parameters measured including calcium, phosphorous, alkaline phosphatase, intact PTH, and 25-hydroxycholecalciferol. The histomorphometric parameters assessed were osteoblasts perimeter, osteoclast perimeter, eroded perimeter, osteoid perimeter, bone fibrosis and bone volume. RESULT Total 28 hemodialysis patients underwent bone biopsy. Seventy percent were male, with a mean age was 33.07±10.42 yrs; serum alkaline phosphatase was 219.10±311.3IU/ml; vitamin D was 18.18±9.56ng/ml, and intact PTH was 650.7±466.0pg/ml. Intact PTH had a significant positive association with osteoblast, osteoclast, eroded surface, and osteoid perimeter. Serum alkaline phosphatase had a significant relationship with bone fibrosis (r=0.525, p-value=0.004). Intact PTH was significantly higher in females than males (1078.75±533.04 vs. 479.6±309.83; p-value=0.004). The osteoid surface was significantly high in females compared to males (p=0.038). Age had a significant impact on osteoblast and eroded surface (p=0.008 and p=0.031, respectively). Intact PTH is a reliable biomarkers for bone turnover compare to ALP (p<0.001 and p=0.554, respectively). CONCLUSION Intact PTH strongly associated with bone formation, bone resorption parameters. Gender and age had significant impact on static histomorphometric parameters in our study.

Abstract
Intense changes in mineral and bone metabolism are frequent in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and represent an important cause of morbidity and reduced quality of life. These disorders have conventionally been defined as renal osteodystrophy and classified based on bone biopsy, but due to a lack of bone biopsy data and validated radiological methods to evaluate bone morphology in children, it has been challenging to effectively assess renal osteodystrophy in pediatric CKD; the consequence has been the suboptimal management of bone disorders in children. CKD-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is a new expression used to describe a systemic disorder of mineral and bone metabolism as a result of CKD. CKD-MBD is a triad of biochemical imbalances in calcium, phosphate, parathyroid hormone, and vitamin D; bone deformities and soft tissue calcification. This literature review aims to explore the pathogenesis, diagnostic approach, and treatment of CKD-MBD in children and the effects of renal osteodystrophy on growing skeleton, with a specific focus on the biological basis of this peculiar condition.

Areal-bone mineral density (aBMD) of lumbar-spine dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan is the most frequently used tool in evaluating BMD in pediatric patients, however its size dependency have significant impact on measurements accuracy in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of trabecular bone score (TBS) computed during lumbar-spine DXA scan in assessing bone status in children on maintenance hemodialysis (HD). Ninety-three children on HD (aged 9-18 years) were subjected to lumbar-spine DXA-scan to obtain aBMD (g/cm2) and TBS.Z-scores of aBMD for chronological-age (aBMDZ-CA), height-age (aBMDZ-HA), and TBSZ-score were calculated using mean and SD values of 442 healthy controls. aBMD and TBS were significantly lower in short-for-age and normal height-for-age patients compared to the corresponding values of controls (p < 0.05 for all). Degraded vertebral microarchitecture (TBSZ-score < -2) was detected in 48% and 44% of male and female patients respectively. There were no significant differences in median TBSZ-score between short-for-age and normal height-for-age HD patients in male (p = 0.425) and in female (p = 0.316) patients. TBSZ-score correlated significantly with aBMDZ-CA (r = 0.234; p = 0.024) but not with aBMDZ-HA (r = 0.077; p = 0.462). Patients with history of fractures (5 patients only) had significantly lower TBS scores compared to those without fracture history (p = 0.016). CONCLUSION TBS is significantly reduced in children on maintenance HD and is associated with increased fracture incidence. TBS has shown to be a promising tool in assessing bone quality (trabecular microarchitecture) in children with CKD being not size-dependent as is a-BMD, for further evaluation of its potential role in therapeutic and follow-up decisions. WHAT IS KNOWN • In children with CKD, bone demineralization starts as early as CKD stage 2, so assessment of bone health is mandatory for follow up and therapeutic decisions. • aBMD of lumbar-spine DXA scan is the most used tool in evaluating BMD in pediatric patients, however its size dependency have significant impact on measurements made in children with CKD. WHAT IS NEW • TBS is significantly reduced in children on maintenance HD and associated with increased fracture incidence. • TBS has shown to be a promising tool in assessing bone quality (trabecular microarchitecture) in children with CKD being not size-dependent as is a-BMD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Racial disparities in care exist for diseases with heterogeneous treatment guidelines. The impact of these disparities on outcomes after parathyroidectomy for secondary(2HPT) and tertiary hyperparathyroidism(3HPT) was explored. METHODS The 2015-2019 NSQIP datasets were used. Patients who underwent parathyroidectomy for 2HPT and 3HPT were identified and analyzed separately. Patients were stratified by race (white vs. non-white); demographics, comorbidities, and outcomes were compared. Studied outcomes included 30-day morbidity, mortality, unplanned reoperation, readmission, and postoperative length of stay(LOS). RESULTS There were 1,150 patients with 2HPT and 262 with 3HPT. For 2HPT, 65.5% were non-white; morbidity, reoperation, and prolonged LOS(>3days) occurred disproportionately more often in non-white patients. Non-white race was independently associated with morbidity; higher ASA class and alkaline phosphatase levels were associated with prolonged LOS. For 3HPT, 53.1% were non-white; a prolonged LOS(>1day) occurred disproportionately more often in non-white patients. Higher alkaline phosphatase levels were independently associated with prolonged LOS. CONCLUSION Race and markers of advanced disease negatively impact outcomes after parathyroidectomy for 2HPT and 3HPT. Attention to racial disparities and earlier referral may positively impact outcomes.

Abstract
Key Points Tenapanor is a first-in-class, minimally systemic sodium–hydrogen exchanger 3 inhibitor with a mechanism of action distinct from phosphate binders. Tenapanor alone or with phosphate binders led to 35%–49% of patients achieving serum phosphate ≤4.5 mg/dl over an 18-month period versus 22% at baseline. Tenapanor alone or with phosphate binders may help adults with CKD on maintenance dialysis achieve normal serum phosphate concentrations. Background Most patients with ESKD and hyperphosphatemia have difficulty controlling serum phosphate (sP) concentrations despite maintenance dialysis, dietary restriction, and phosphate binder treatment. NORMALIZE evaluated the efficacy and safety of tenapanor 30 mg twice daily alone or in combination with phosphate binders to achieve sP within the adult population reference range (2.5–4.5 mg/dl). Methods Patients who completed the Phase 3 PHREEDOM study could enroll in NORMALIZE. Patients enrolled in NORMALIZE who had received tenapanor during the PHREEDOM study (n =111) added sevelamer carbonate if sP was >4.5 mg/dl. Patients who had received sevelamer carbonate during the PHREEDOM study (n =61) added tenapanor and decreased sevelamer carbonate if sP was ≤4.5 mg/dl, per protocol titration schedule. Patients were followed in NORMALIZE for up to 18 months. We assessed efficacy in the full analysis set, defined as patients who received ≥1 dose of study drug and had ≥1 post-treatment sP measurement (n =171). We assessed safety in all patients who received ≥1 dose of study drug (n =172). Results At the end point visit, 57 of 171 patients (33%) in the full analysis set achieved sP between 2.5 and 4.5 mg/dl. Eight of 23 patients (35%) who were on tenapanor alone at the end point visit achieved sP between 2.5 and 4.5 mg/dl. The mean reduction from PHREEDOM baseline to end of NORMALIZE in sP was 2.0 mg/dl. Serum intact fibroblast growth factor-23 was significantly reduced; serum intact parathyroid hormone was significantly reduced among patients with intact parathyroid hormone ≥300 pg/ml at PHREEDOM baseline. The most commonly reported treatment-emergent adverse event was diarrhea in 38 of 172 patients (22%), which led to tenapanor discontinuation in four patients (2%). Conclusions Tenapanor alone or in combination with phosphate binders helped adult patients on maintenance dialysis achieve normal sP concentrations. Safety was consistent with previous studies of tenapanor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is a common complication of CKD; it is associated with higher mortality in dialysis patients, while its impact in non-dialysis patients remains mostly unknown. We investigated the associations between parathyroid hormone (PTH), phosphate and calcium (and their interactions), and all-cause, cardiovascular (CV) and non-CV mortality in older non-dialysis patients with advanced CKD. METHODS We used data from the European Quality study, which includes patients aged ≥65 years with estimated glomerular filtration rate ≤20 mL/min/1.73 m2 from six European countries. Sequentially adjusted Cox models were used to assess the association between baseline and time-dependent CKD-MBD biomarkers and all-cause, CV and non-CV mortality. Effect modification between biomarkers was also assessed. RESULTS In 1294 patients, the prevalence of CKD-MBD at baseline was 94%. Both PTH [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 1.12, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.03-1.23, P = .01] and phosphate (aHR 1.35, 95% CI 1.00-1.84, P = .05), but not calcium (aHR 1.11, 95% CI 0.57-2.17, P = .76), were associated with all-cause mortality. Calcium was not independently associated with mortality, but modified the effect of phosphate, with the highest mortality risk found in patients with both hypercalcemia and hyperphosphatemia. PTH level was associated with CV mortality, but not with non-CV mortality, whereas phosphate was associated with both CV and non-CV mortality in most models. CONCLUSIONS CKD-MBD is very common in older non-dialysis patients with advanced CKD. PTH and phosphate are independently associated with all-cause mortality in this population. While PTH level is only associated with CV mortality, phosphate seems to be associated with both CV and non-CV mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic patients on haemodialysis have a higher risk of mortality than non-diabetic patients. The aim of this COSMOS (Current management of secondary hyperparathyroidism: a multicentre observational study) analysis was to assess whether bone and mineral laboratory values [calcium, phosphorus and parathyroid hormone (PTH)] contribute to this risk. METHODS COSMOS is a multicentre, open-cohort, 3-year prospective study, which includes 6797 patients from 227 randomly selected dialysis centres in 20 European countries. The association between mortality and calcium, phosphate or PTH was assessed using Cox proportional hazard regression models using both penalized splines smoothing and categorization according to KDIGO guidelines. The effect modification of the association between the relative risk of mortality and serum calcium, phosphate or PTH by diabetes was assessed. RESULTS There was a statistically significant effect modification of the association between the relative risk of mortality and serum PTH by diabetes (P = .011). The slope of the curve of the association between increasing values of PTH and relative risk of mortality was steeper for diabetic compared with non-diabetic patients, mainly for high levels of PTH. In addition, high serum PTH (>9 times the normal values) was significantly associated with a higher relative risk of mortality in diabetic patients but not in non-diabetic patients [1.53 (95% confidence interval 1.07-2.19) and 1.17 (95% confidence interval 0.91-1.52)]. No significant effect modification of the association between the relative risk of mortality and serum calcium or phosphate by diabetes was found (P = .2 and P = .059, respectively). CONCLUSION The results show a different association of PTH with the relative risk of mortality in diabetic and non-diabetic patients. These findings could have relevant implications for the diagnosis and treatment of chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorders.

Abstract
Introduction: Renal osteodystrophy (ROD) is a type of bone metabolic disorder in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Inflammation is associated with bone loss in ROD. However, its precise mechanism has not yet been elucidated. The present study was conducted to investigate whether exosomes (Exos) in bone marrow (BM) are involved in the pathogenesis of high-turnover ROD.Methods: Bone mass, osteoclast number, and pro-inflammatory cytokines levels of BM supernatant were detected in adenine-induced ROD rats. The effect of Exos derived from BM (BM-Exos) of ROD (ROD-Exos) on inflammatory genes and osteoclast differentiation of BM-derived macrophages (BMMs) were further examined. Then, exosomal miRNA sequencing was performed and an miRNA-mRNA-pathway network was constructed.Results: we found increased osteoclasts and decreased bone mass in ROD rats, as well as inflammatory activation in the BM niche. Furthermore, BMMs from ROD rats displayed overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines and increased osteoclast differentiation, accompanied by nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling activation. Mechanistically, we found that ROD-Exos activates NF-κB signaling to promote the release of proinflammatory cytokines and increase osteoclast differentiation of BMMs. Meanwhile, a total of 24 differentially expressed miRNAs were identified between BM-Exos from ROD and normal control (NC). The miRNA-mRNA-pathway network suggests that rno-miR-9a-5p, rno-miR-133a-3p, rno-miR-30c-5p, rno-miR-206-3p, and rno-miR-17-5p might play pivotal roles in inflammation and osteoclast differentiation. Additionally, we validated that the expression of miR-9a-5p is upregulated in ROD-Exos.Conclusion: The BM niche of ROD alters the miRNA cargo of BM-Exos to promote inflammation and osteoclast differentiation of BMMs, at least partially contributing to the pathogenesis of high-turnover ROD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The effects of denosumab on bone mineral density (BMD) and metabolism in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) remain controversial. Hence, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies. METHODS The MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases were searched in June 2022 to identify studies that evaluated the risk of denosumab-associated hypocalcemia and changes in bone metabolism, changes in BMD from baseline to post-treatment in patients with ESRD. FINDINGS Twelve studies with 348 participants were included. The pooled incidence of hypocalcemia during denosumab treatment was 35.0% (95% confidence interval [CI], 25%-46%; I2 = 63.6%). There were no significant changes in either the serum calcium or phosphate levels from the baseline to post-treatment period; the mean differences were 0.04 mg/dL (95% CI, -0.12 to 0.20 mg/dL) and -0.39 mg/dL (95% CI, -0.89 to 0.12 mg/dL). We found significant changes in the alkaline phosphatase and parathyroid hormone levels; the standardized mean differences were -2.98 (95% CI, -5.36 to -0.59) and -3.12 (95% CI: -4.94 to -1.29), respectively. Denosumab may increase BMD, with mean differences of 9.10% (95% CI: 4.07%-14.13%) and 9.00% (95% CI: 5.93%-12.07%) for the femoral neck and lumbar spine, respectively. DISCUSSION Denosumab increased the BMDs of the lumbar spine and femoral neck in patients with ESRD. The onset of hypocalcemia must be carefully monitored during denosumab administration.

Abstract
Two decades ago, Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes coined the term chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) to describe the syndrome of biochemical, bone and extra-skeletal calcification abnormalities that occur in patients with CKD. CKD-MBD is a prevalent complication and contributes to the excessively high burden of fractures and cardiovascular disease, loss of quality of life and premature mortality in patients with CKD. Thus far, therapy has focused primarily on phosphate retention, abnormal vitamin D metabolism and parathyroid hormone disturbances, but these strategies have largely proved unsuccessful, thus calling for paradigm-shifting concepts and innovative therapeutic approaches. Interorgan crosstalk is increasingly acknowledged to have an important role in health and disease. Accordingly, mounting evidence suggests a role for both the immune system and the gut microbiome in bone and vascular biology. Gut dysbiosis, compromised gut epithelial barrier and immune cell dysfunction are prominent features of the uraemic milieu. These alterations might contribute to the inflammatory state observed in CKD and could have a central role in the pathogenesis of CKD-MBD. The emerging fields of osteoimmunology and osteomicrobiology add another level of complexity to the pathogenesis of CKD-MBD, but also create novel therapeutic opportunities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is prevalent in the aging population and increases the risk of fracture 2-4 times. We compared optimized quantitative [18F]fluoride PET/CT methods to the reference standard with arterial input function (AIF) to identify a clinically accessible method for evaluation of bone turnover in patients with CKD. METHODS Ten patients on chronic hemodialysis treatment and ten control patients were recruited. A dynamic 60-min [18F]fluoride PET scan was obtained from the 5th lumbar vertebra to the proximal femur simultaneously with arterial blood sampling to achieve an AIF. Individual AIFs were time-shifted to compute a population curve (PDIF). Bone and vascular volumes-of-interest (VOIs) were drawn, and an image-derived-input-function (IDIF) was extracted. PDIF and IDIF were scaled to plasma. Bone turnover (Ki) was calculated with the AIF, PDIF, and IDIF and bone VOIs using a Gjedde-Patlak plot. Input methods were compared using correlations and precision errors. RESULTS The calculated Ki from the five non-invasive methods all correlated to the Ki from the AIF method with the PDIF scaled to a single late plasma sample showing the highest correlations (r > 0.94), and the lowest precision error of 3-5%. Furthermore, the femoral bone VOI's correlated positively to p-PTH and showed significant differences between patients and controls. CONCLUSIONS Dynamic 30 min [18F]fluoride PET/CT with a population based input curve scaled to a single venous plasma sample is a feasible and precise non-invasive diagnostic method for the assessment of bone turnover in patients with CKD. The method may potentially allow for earlier and more precise diagnosis and may be useful for assessment of treatment effects, which is crucial for development of future treatment strategies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES As the impact of chronic kidney disease (CKD) severity on different bone types remains unclear, we induced increasing levels of CKD severity in a rat model and investigated hormone and mineral levels as well as alveolar and tibia bone histomorphology. METHODS Rats were divided into sham operation (sham), 4/6 nephrectomy (4/6Nx), 5/6Nx, and 4/6Nx with hyperphosphorous (HP) diet (4/6NxHP). At week 20, BUN, FGF23, PTH, and P were estimated in plasma. Bone parameters were evaluated by microCT, and osteoclasts and osteoid areas were evaluated by TRAP and H&E stains, respectively. RESULTS The 4/6NxHP and 5/6Nx groups had elevated PTH, and the 4/6NxHP group alone had elevated P. Compared to the 4/6Nx group, the 4/6NxHP group demonstrated increased FGF23 and P. In the alveolar bone, the 4/6NxHP group had reduced bone volume and BMD compared to the sham and 4/6Nx groups. In the tibia cortical bone, bone surface density was higher in the 4/6NxHP group compared to the sham group. Tibia cortical bone volume was negatively correlated with FGF23 and P. Moreover, alveolar bone volume was negatively correlated with FGF23, PTH, and P. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate that hormone and mineral levels vary with CKD severity, and alveolar bone loss strongly correlates with these hormone and mineral alterations.

Abstract
Most patients with end-stage kidney disease undergoing kidney transplantation are affected by the chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder. This entity encompasses laboratory abnormalities, calcification of soft tissues, and the bone abnormalities of renal osteodystrophy that together result in an increased risk of fracture, cardiovascular events, and mortality. Although many biochemical disturbances associated with end-stage kidney disease improve in the first year after transplantation, hyperparathyroidism commonly persists, and residual changes of renal osteodystrophy are slow to resolve. When superimposed on common, traditional risk factors, post-transplant glucocorticoid treatment, the possibility of tubular disturbances and post-transplant chronic kidney disease, rates of incident fracture remain high. This review examines hormonal and biochemical changes before and after kidney transplantation, fracture risk assessment tools and imaging modalities, a staged approach to management and concerns associated with antiresorptive and anabolic therapies. A multidisciplinary approach is proposed as the best means to improve patient-level outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vitamin K deficiency is highly prevalent in patients on dialysis and may contribute to their low bone mineral density (BMD) and increased risk of fracture. This study investigated the effect of menaquinone-7 (MK-7) supplementation on BMD in patients on chronic dialysis. METHODS In a multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled intervention trial, 123 patients on chronic dialysis were randomised to a daily oral supplement of either MK-7 360 µg or placebo for 2 years. BMD of the distal radius (1/3, mid, ultradistal and total), femoral neck, lumbar spine (L1-L4) and whole body was assessed by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Serum levels of vitamin K1 and MK-7 and plasma levels of total osteocalcin, dephosphorylated-uncarboxylated matrix Gla protein and protein induced by vitamin K absence II were measured to assess vitamin K status. RESULTS After 2 years, an accelerated BMD loss of the 1/3 distal radius was found with MK-7 supplementation {mean difference of changes relative to placebo -0.023 g/cm2 [95% confidence interval (CI) -0.039 to -0.008]}, whereas the decrease in lumbar spine BMD seen in the placebo group was prevented [mean difference of changes between groups 0.050 g/cm2 (95% CI 0.015-0.085)]. No significant effects were observed at the remaining skeletal sites. Vitamin K status strongly improved in MK-7-supplemented participants. CONCLUSION Compared with placebo, an accelerated BMD loss of the 1/3 distal radius was found after 2 years of MK-7 supplementation, whereas a decline in lumbar spine BMD was prevented. As such, MK-7 supplementation might modify BMD site-specifically in patients on dialysis. In aggregate, our findings do not support MK-7 supplementation to preserve bone in patients on dialysis.

Abstract
The pathophysiology of chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is not well understood. Specific factors secreted by osteocytes are elevated in the serum of adults and pediatric patients with CKD-MBD, including FGF-23 and sclerostin, a known inhibitor of the Wnt signaling pathway. The molecular mechanisms that promote bone disease during the progression of CKD are incompletely understood. In this study, we performed a cross-sectional analysis of 87 pediatric patients with pre-dialysis CKD and post-dialysis (CKD 5D). We assessed the associations between serum and bone sclerostin levels and biomarkers of bone turnover and bone histomorphometry. We report that serum sclerostin levels were elevated in both early and late CKD. Higher circulating and bone sclerostin levels were associated with histomorphometric parameters of bone turnover and mineralization. Immunofluorescence analyses of bone biopsies evaluated osteocyte staining of antibodies towards the canonical Wnt target, β-catenin, in the phosphorylated (inhibited) or unphosphorylated (active) forms. Bone sclerostin was found to be colocalized with phosphorylated β-catenin, which suggests that Wnt signaling was inhibited. In patients with low serum sclerostin levels, increased unphosphorylated "active" β-catenin staining was observed in osteocytes. These data provide new mechanistic insight into the pathogenesis of CKD-MBD and suggest that sclerostin may offer a potential biomarker or therapeutic target in pediatric renal osteodystrophy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The necessity and importance of pharmaceutical care services (PCS) are well recognized, yet the concept and scope of PCS have not yet been clearly defined in Korea, particularly in kidney transplantation outpatient clinics. AIM The main purpose of this study is to evaluate whether PCS is effective in the outpatient setting for kidney transplant patients. METHODS For three years, a clinical pharmacist provided PCS to kidney transplant patients in an outpatient setting to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of PCS. RESULTS A total of 302 patients were matched in a 1:1 ratio, with 151 in the PCS group and 151 in the control group. These patients were followed, and a total of 476 interventions were provided to them, including medication reconciliation (n = 113, 23.7%), medication evaluation and management (n = 186, 39.1%), and pharmaceutical care transition (n = 177, 37.2%) services. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) exhibited a notable difference between the control and PCS groups when comparing the pre- and post-study periods measurements. In the control group, there was a decline of 7.0 mL/min/1.73 m2 in eGFR. In contrast, the PCS group showed a smaller decline of 2.5 mL/min/1.73 m2 (p = 0.03). The adjusted odds ratio for end stage renal disease development in the PCS group was 0.51 (95% confidence interval: 0.26-0.96), indicating a significantly lower risk compared to the control group. CONCLUSION Our study highlights the promising potential of PCS implementation in kidney transplantation outpatient clinics. Further research is needed to validate and expand upon these findings, especially in diverse clinical settings.
