Hyperphosphatemia in end-stage renal disease

Advances in Renal Replacement Therapy, 2002
Hyperphosphatemia occurs universally in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) unless efforts are made to prevent positive phosphate balance. Positive phosphate balance results from the loss of renal elimination of phosphate and continued obligatory intestinal absorption of dietary phosphate.

Hyperthyroidism in End-Stage Renal Disease

American Journal of Nephrology, 2008
We report the 2nd patient to have hyperthyroidism while on maintenance hemodialysis. This case is instructive because the diagnosis of hyperthyroidism in uremic patients is difficult due to similar signs and symptoms. This case report describes, for the first time, the unique interaction between hemodialysis and thyrotoxic heart disease.

Hypertension in End-Stage Renal Disease

New England Journal of Medicine, 1969
Although it is well known that hypertension is often associated with renal parenchymal disease, especially in its terminal phases, the nature of this relation has not been defined. Efforts to study this problem in animals have not proved fruitful. Renal disease as produced in animals only irregularly results in hypertension, and no satisfactory model ...

Depression in End-Stage Renal Disease

Journal of Psychosocial Nursing and Mental Health Services, 2011
The occurrence of depression within the population of patients with renal disease may be underrecognized and undertreated in practice. Furthermore, depression in the presence of end-stage renal disease may be resistant to treatment or require multiple modes of treatment and coordination of care across settings and providers for symptom relief.

Thrombosis in End‐Stage Renal Disease

Seminars in Dialysis, 2003
ABSTRACT Although renal failure has classically been associated with a bleeding tendency, thrombotic events are common among patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD). A variety of thrombosis‐favoring hematologic alterations have been demonstrated in these patients.

Exercise in End-Stage Renal Disease

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 1986
Available studies indicate that exercise tolerance in renal patients is low. Although significant improvements in maximal oxygen consumption have been reported following exercise training in these patients, there may be physiologic limitations to the attainable levels of aerobic capacity due to the multisystemic nature of the disease.

Preventing end‐stage renal disease

Diabetic Medicine, 1998
Interest in evidence-based medicine is increasing greatly, with the focus on treatment that prevents organ failure and that may prolong life. Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes are conditions associated with increased mortality, mainly as a result of renal and cardiovascular diseases, and blindness. All three complications usually occur together.

Hypophosphatemia in End Stage Renal Disease

Nephron, 2008
A case of hypophosphatemia in a 55-year-old black female on maintenance hemodialysis is described. She developed multiple bone fractures and congestive heart failure during her 10-year period on hemodialysis. Iliac crest bone biopsy revealed osteomalacia with absent aluminum stores.

Dialysis for end-stage renal disease

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2000
Peritoneal dialysis is the major renal replacement therapy for children with end-stage renal disease, with hemodialysis used for a substantial number of pediatric patients. Reduction of morbidity and mortality is a major goal with the use of these modalities.
