Hypoxia inducible factor prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors: what a meta-analysis could tell us

Francesco Locatelli 1 and Carmine Zoccali

doi : 10.1093/ckj/sfad229

Clinical Kidney Journal, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2024, sfad229

Meta-analyses offer an estimate of the overall effect size and help address the inconsistency in findings across studies. The risk is the overemphasis on statistical significance while underrepresenting or misinterpreting clinical significance.

Urine MMP7 as a kidney injury biomarker

Alejandro Avello 1 , Juan Guerrero-Mauvecin1 and Ana Belen Sanz

doi : 10.1093/ckj/sfad233

Clinical Kidney Journal, Volume 17, Issue 1, January 2024, sfad233

Matrix metalloproteinase 7 (MMP-7) is a secreted endopeptidase involved in the degradation of extracellular matrix components and the activation of cytokines and growth factors. The regulation of MMP-7 can be transcriptionally regulated by AP-1 or Wnt/β-catenin or post-translationally by proteolytic activation.

According to data from large national registries, almost 20%–25% of patients with end-stage kidney disease have an undetermined kidney disease (UKD). Recent data have shown that monogenic disease-causing variants are under-diagnosed. We performed exome sequencing (ES) on UKD patients in our center to improve the diagnosis rate.

Hyperkalemia is common among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) but there is scarce information on differential risk factors and outcomes for men and women. For instance, smoking has been suggested to be a risk factor for hyperkalemia, but specific analysis of the sex-specific impact of smoking on hyperkalemia in CKD is lacking.

Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is the most frequent recurrent disease in kidney transplant recipients and its recurrence contributes to reducing graft survival. Several variables at the time of recurrence have been associated with a higher risk of graft loss. The presence of clinical or subclinical inflammation has been associated with a higher risk of kidney graft loss, but it is not precisely known how it influences the outcome of patients with recurrent IgAN.

Most patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are managed with dialysis and less commonly kidney transplantation. However, not all are suitable for or desire either of these renal replacement therapies. Conservative management (CM) is an option. However, the selection of CM is often not easy for patients and clinicians. The aim of this systematic review is to identify the key factors that influence the selection of CM for ESRD.

Appropriate dialysis prescription in the transitional setting from chronic kidney disease to end-stage kidney disease is still challenging. Conventional thrice-weekly haemodialysis (HD) might be associated with rapid loss of residual kidney function (RKF) and high mortality. The benefits and risks of incremental HD compared with conventional HD were explored in this systematic review and meta-analysis.
