Effects of Sevelamer Hydrochloride and Calcium Carbonate on Renal Osteodystrophy in Hemodialysis Patients [PDF]
Disturbances in mineral metabolism play a central role in the development of renal bone disease. In a 54-wk, randomized, open-label study, 119 hemodialysis patients were enrolled to compare the effects of sevelamer hydrochloride and calcium carbonate on bone.

Phosphate in Physiological and Pathological Mineralization: Important yet Often Unheeded
Phosphate serves as a building block for physiological mineralization, and as a signaling molecule that regulates the activity of mineralizing cells. The disturbance in these processes could induce a series of pathological mineralization, with abnormal mineralization of hard tissues and ectopic mineralization of soft tissues being the most ...

Polymeric Anti‐Antibiotic Microparticles to Prevent Antibiotic Resistance Evolution
This study introduces sevelamer (SEV) microparticles as a repurposed adjuvant therapy to combat antimicrobial resistance. SEV microparticles effectively capture vancomycin (VAN) and daptomycin (DAP), preventing these last‐resort antibiotics from driving resistance.

Vitamin K antagonists predispose to calciphylaxis in patients with end-stage renal disease. [PDF]
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Calciphylaxis is associated with a poor prognosis in dialysis patients, and its pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. Although the use of vitamin K antagonists (VKA) has been implicated, previous reports are conflicting. We aimed
