The role of sacubitril/valsartan in abnormal renal function patients combined with heart failure: a meta-analysis and systematic analysis

open access: yesRenal Failure
Aims This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of sacubitril/valsartan in abnormal renal function (eGFR < 60 ml/min/1.73m2) patients combined with heart failure based on randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies.Methods ...

Impact of vascular calcification on cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis patients: clinical significance, mechanisms and possible strategies for treatment

open access: yesRenal Replacement Therapy, 2017
Vascular calcification has now been recognized as a major problem in dialysis patients because of its strong influence on the prognosis. Along with the regulatory failure of calcification-inhibitory system, active phenotypic change of vascular smooth ...

Estrogen inhibits vascular calcification in rats via hypoxia-induced factor-1α signaling

open access: yesVascular, 2020
Objective Calcification serves as a surrogate for atherosclerosis-associated vascular diseases, and coronary artery calcification is mediated by multiple pathogenic factors.

Relationship between effective blood flow rate and clinical outcomes in maintenance hemodialysis patients: a single-center study

open access: yesRenal Failure
The association between blood flow rate (BFR) and clinical outcomes in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) is inconclusive. This retrospective study included 175 patients undergoing MHD treatment between July 2015 and March 2022, divided ...

Loss of SIRT1 in diabetes accelerates DNA damage-induced vascular calcification

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2020
Aims Vascular calcification is a recognized predictor of cardiovascular risk in the diabetic patient, with DNA damage and accelerated senescence linked to oxidative stress-associated pathological calcification. Having previously shown that systemic SIRT1

Genetics of Vascular Calcification [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2011
### NT5E Mutations and Arterial Calcifications Hilaire et al NEJM. 2011;364:432–442. Recessive mutations in the NTE5 gene were recently described in lower-extremity vascular calcification. ENPP1 mutations were previously described in a severe disorder of vascular calcification in infancy.

The P2Y2 nucleotide receptor is an inhibitor of vascular calcification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Mutations in the 5'-nucleotidase ecto (NT5E) gene that encodes CD73, a nucleotidase that converts AMP to adenosine, are linked to arterial calcification.

Comparative efficacy of sodium thiosulfate, bisphosphonates, and cinacalcet for the treatment of vascular calcification in patients with haemodialysis: a systematic review and network meta-analysis

open access: yesBMC Nephrology
Background Up to now, there is no unequivocal intervention to mitigate vascular calcification (VC) in patients with hemodialysis. This network meta-analysis aimed to systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy of sodium thiosulfate, bisphosphonates ...

HDAC9 is implicated in atherosclerotic aortic calcification and affects vascular smooth muscle cell phenotype. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Aortic calcification is an important independent predictor of future cardiovascular events. We performed a genome-wide association meta-analysis to determine SNPs associated with the extent of abdominal aortic calcification (n = 9,417) or descending ...

From variome to phenome : pathogenesis, diagnosis and management of ectopic mineralization disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Ectopic mineralization - inappropriate biomineralization in soft tissues - is a frequent finding in physiological aging processes and several common disorders, which can be associated with significant morbidity and mortality.
