- Parathyroidectomy Improves Restless Leg Syndrome in Patients on Hemodialysis(2016) SANTOS, Roberto Savio Silva; COELHO, Fernando Morgadinho Santos; SILVA, Bruno Caldin da; GRACIOLLI, Fabiana Giorgeti; DOMINGUEZ, Wagner Velasquez; MONTENEGRO, Fabio Luiz de Menezes; JORGETTI, Vanda; MOYSES, Rosa Maria Affonso; ELIAS, Rosilene MottaBackground Restless leg syndrome (RLS) is a sleep disorder with high prevalence among patients on hemodialysis. It has been postulated that high phosphate and high parathyroid hormone may be implicated in its pathogenesis. Standard international criteria and face-to-face interview are not always applied. Methods this was an interventional prospective study in which 19 patients (6 men, aged 48+/-11 years) with severe hyperparathyroidism were evaluated. RLS diagnosis and rating scale were accessed based on the International RLS Study Group pre- and post-parathyroidectomy. Patients also underwent standard polysomnography. Results At baseline, RLS was present in 10 patients (52.6%), and pain was the most reported symptom associated with the diagnosis. Patients with RLS had higher serum phosphate (p = 0.008) that remained independently associated with RLS in a logistic regression model, adjusted for hemoglobin, age and gender (HR = 7.28; CI = 1.14-46.3, p = 0.035). After parathyroidectomy, there was a reduction of serum parathyroid hormone, phosphate, calcium and alkaline phosphatase, and an increase of 25(OH)-vitamin D, and Fetuin-A. Parathyroidectomy alleviated RLS (from 52% to 21%; p = 0.04), which was accompanied by a decrease in severity scale, in association with relief of pain and pruritus. Polysomnography in these patients showed an improvement of sleep parameters as measured by sleep efficiency, sleep latency and percentage of REM sleep. Conclusion RLS is associated with high levels of phosphate in patients with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism on hemodialysis. Pain is most reported complain in these patients. Parathyroidectomy provided an opportunity to relief RLS. Whether the reduction of serum phosphorus or parathyroid hormone contributed to this improvement merits further investigation.
- Furosemide Increases the Risk of Hyperparathyroidism in Chronic Kidney Disease(2016) VASCO, Raquel F. V.; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; ZATZ, Roberto; ELIAS, Rosilene M.Background: Diuretics are widely used in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). While thiazide-like diuretics limit urinary calcium excretion, loop diuretics (LD) promote calcium wasting, which might facilitate the development of secondary hyperparathyroidism (HPT2). We sought to investigate, in CKD patients not on dialysis, the influence of either hydrochlorothiazide (Hydro) or furosemide (Furo) on circulating parathyroid hormone (PTH) and whether such actions are determined by the effects of these compounds on calcium excretion. Methods: Electronic charts of all nephrology outpatients (CKD stages 2-5) who were given Hydro or Furo were included. We assessed estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), biochemical parameters and 24-hour calcium excretion. Hyperparathyroidism was defined as PTH > 65 pg/ml. Results: Out of 275 patients, 108 (29%) were taking Hydro and 167 (61%) Furo. Patients on Hydro were younger, mostly female and had higher eGFR. The median 24-hour urinary calcium excretion in the overall cohort was 41 (22, 76), being lower in Furo than in Hydro patients (37 (16, 68) vs. 47 (26, 88) mg/24 h, respectively, p = 0.016). Logistic regression showed that, after adjustment for eGFR, calcium excretion rate was found not to increase the risk ratio for HPT2, where as Furo was a strong predictor of HPT2. Conclusion: Furo increased the risk of HPT2 among CKD patients compared to Hydro. This effect was independent of eGFR or calcium excretion. The use of LD in CKD, currently preferred in advanced stages, should be reappraised. (C) 2016 S. Karger AG, Basel
- Turning over renal osteodystrophy dogma: direct actions of FGF23 on osteoblast beta-catenin pathway(2016) SCHIAVI, Susan C.; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.Although recognized as a major complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), the pathophysiology of the CKD-related mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is not completely understood. Recently, the inhibition of Wnt/beta-catenin pathway in osteocytes by sclerostin has been shown to play a role in CKD-MBD. The study by Carrilo-Lopez et al. confirms this inhibition in an experimental model of CKD. Moreover, they describe direct actions of FGF23-Klotho on osteoblasts, increasing the expression of DKK1, another Wnt/beta-catenin pathway inhibitor.
- High Dialysate Calcium Concentration May Cause More Sympathetic Stimulus During Hemodialysis(2016) JIMENEZ, Zaida N. C.; SILVA, Bruno C.; REIS, Luciene dos; CASTRO, Manuel C. M.; RAMOS, Camila D.; COSTA-HONG, Valeria; BORTOLOTTO, Luiz A.; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda; DOMINGUEZ, Wagner V.; OLIVEIRA, Ivone B.; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; ELIAS, Rosilene M.Background/Aims: Acute activation of sympathetic activation during hemodialysis is essential to maintain blood pressure (BP), albeit long-term overactivity contributes to higher mortality. Low heart rate variability (HRV), a measure of autonomic nervous system activity, and abnormal ankle-brachial index (ABI) are associated with higher mortality in patients on hemodialysis. In this study, we assessed HRV and ABI pre and post dialysis in incident patients on hemodialysis using high (1.75mmol/l) and low (1.25mmol/l) dialysate calcium concentration (DCa). Methods: HRV was measured as the ratio between low frequency and high frequency power (LF/HF). Thirty patients (age 47 16 years, 67% men) were studied in two consecutive mid-week hemodialysis sessions. Results: Mean BP variation was positive with DCa 1.75 and negative with DCa 1.25 [4.0 (-6.0, 12.2 mmHg) vs. -3.2 (-9.8, 1.3 mmHg); p=0.050]. Reduction of ABI from pre to post HD was related to higher sympathetic activity (p=0.031). The increase in LF/HF ratio was higher with DCa 1.75 (58.3% vs. 41.7% in DCa 1.75 and 1.25, respectively, RR 2.8; p=0.026). Conclusion: Although higher DCa is associated with better hemodynamic tolerability during hemodialysis, this occurs at the expense of increased sympathetic activity. Higher sympathetic activity was associated with a decrease of ABI during hemodialysis. (C) 2016 The Author(s) Published by S. Karger AG, Basel
- Factors associated with subendocardial ischemia risk in patients on hemodialysis(2016) SILVA, Bruno Caldin da; SANJUAN, Adriano; COSTA-HONG, Valéria; REIS, Luciene dos; GRACIOLLI, Fabiana; CONSOLIM-COLOMBO, Fernanda; BORTOLOTTO, Luiz Aparecido; MOYSES, Rosa Maria Affonso; ELIAS, Rosilene MottaAbstract Introduction: Bone metabolism disorder (BMD) and vascular dysfunction contribute to excess cardiovascular mortality observed in hemodialysis patients. Vascular dysfunction, a new marker of atherosclerosis, can play a role in this risk. Even though associated with higher mortality in the general population, such vascular evaluation in patients on hemodialysis has not been extensively studied. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, hemodialysis patients were submitted to flow-mediated dilation, subendocardial viability ratio (SEVR) and ejection duration index assessment, in order to estimate the impact of BMD markers on vascular dysfunction. Results: A matched cohort of patients with (n = 16) and without (n = 11) severe secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) was studied. Additionally, time spent under severe SHPT was also evaluated. Patients with severe SHPT had lower SEVR and higher ejection duration index, indicating higher cardiovascular risk. Lower SEVR was also associated to diastolic blood pressure (r = 0.435, p = 0.049), serum 25-Vitamin-D levels (r = 0.479, p = 0.028) and to more time spent under severe secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), defined as time from PTH > 500pg/ml until parathyroidectomy surgery or end of the study (r = -0.642, p = 0.027). In stepwise multiple regression analysis between SEVR and independent variables, lower SEVR was independently associated to lower serum 25-Vitamin-D levels (p = 0.005), female sex (p = 0.012) and more time spent under severe SHPT (p = 0.001) in a model adjusted for age, serum cholesterol, and blood pressure (adjusted r² = 0.545, p = 0.001). Conclusion: Subendocardial perfusion was lower in patients with BMD, reflecting higher cardiovascular risk in this population. Whether early parathyroidectomy in the course of kidney disease could modify such results still deserves further investigation.

- The deceptive concept of hypoparathyroidism and recurrence after parathyroidectomy in dialysis patients: are we offering a Procrustean bed to some patients?(2016) MONTENEGRO, FABIO LUIZ DE MENEZES; BRESCIA, MARILIA D'ELBOUX GUIMARAES; NASCIMENTO JÚNIOR, CLIMÉRIO PEREIRA; MASSONI NETO, LEDO MAZZEI; ARAP, SÉRGIO SAMIR; SANTOS, STÊNIO ROBERTO CASTRO LIMA; GOLDENSTEIN, PATRÍCIA TASCHNER; BUENO, RODRIGO OLIVEIRA; CUSTODIO, MELANI RIBEIRO; JORGETTI, VANDA; MOYSES, ROSA MARIA AFFONSOABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the frequency of hypoparathyroidism and of its recurrence after parathyroidectomy in dialysis patients according to different existing classifications. Methods: we conducted a retrospective study of 107 consecutive dialysis patients undergoing total parathyroidectomy with immediate autograft in a tertiary hospital from 2006 to 2010. We studied the changes in PTH levels in the postoperative period over time. Were grouped patients according to different PTH levels targets recommended according to the dosage method and by the American and Japanese Nephrology Societies, and by an International Experts Consortium. Results: after parathyroidectomy, there was sustained reduction in serum calcium and phosphatemia. The median value of PTH decreased from 1904pg/ml to 55pg/ml in 12 months. Depending on the considered target level, the proportion of patients below the target ranged between 17% and 87%. On the other hand, the proportion of patients with levels above the target ranged from 3% to 37%. Conclusion: the application of different recommendations for PTH levels after parathyroidectomy in dialysis patients may lead to incorrect classifications of hypoparathyroidism or recurrent hyperparathyroidism and resultin discordant therapeutic conducts.
- The pitfall of treating low bone turnover: Effects on cortical porosity(2016) ARAUJO, Maria Julia C. L. N.; KAROHL, Cristina; ELIAS, Rosilene M.; BARRETO, Fellype C.; BARRETO, Daniela Veit; CANZIANI, Maria Eugenia F.; CARVALHO, Aluizio B.; JORGETTI, Vanda; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.Although it is recognized that cortical bone contributes significantly to the mechanical strength of the skeleton, little is known about this compartment from bone biopsy studies, particularly in CKD patients. In addition, there is no prospective data on the effects of CKD-MBD therapy on cortical porosity (Ct.Po). This is a post hoc analysis on data from a randomized controlled trial on the effects of different phosphate binders on bone remodelling. Therapy was adjusted according to the first biopsy, and included sevelamer or calcium acetate, calcitriol and changes in calcium dialysate concentration. We measured Ct.Po at baseline and one year after. Fifty-two patients (46 +/- 13 years old, 67% women and 60% white) were enrolled. Ct.Po was already high at baseline in 85% of patients [30% (17, 46)1 and correlated with PTH (p = 0.001). Low bone turnover was seen in 28 patients (54.9%). After one-year treatment, PTH increased in patients with low turnover, as intended. However, increased Ct.Po was seen in 49 patients (94%). This increase correlated with the delta of phosphate (p = 0.015) and the delta of PTH (p = 0.03); it was also higher among non-white patients than in white patients (p = 0.039). The risk of increase in Ct.Po was 4.5 higher among non-white patients. Adjusted multiple regression analysis showed that the delta of Ct.Po was dependent on delta PTH and race (r(2) = 0.193). We concluded that in an attempt to increase bone turnover, the increase in PTH levels might be associated with higher cortical porosity, particularly in non-white patients. Whether this finding leads to a high risk of fracture deserves further investigation.
- Parathyroidectomized patients have impaired capacity of peripheral vascular constriction during hemodialysis(2016) SILVA, Bruno C.; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; SILVA, Vitor B.; FREITAS, Geraldo R. R.; ELIAS, Rosilene M.Parathyroidectomy (PTx) seems to improve cardiovascular outcomes and reduce blood pressure levels. However, the effect of PTx on hemodynamic changes during hemodialysis (HD) is still overlooked. This was a prospective cohort design. Patients with end-stage renal disease on maintenance HD were included. Diabetes and nonsinusal rhythm were exclusion criteria. History of PTx was recorded. Finometer monitor was used to access parameters immediately pre- and post-HD sessions. Cardiac index (CI) variation (CI) and peripheral arterial resistance variation (PAR) were the variables of interest. Biochemical and echocardiographic data were also obtained. PTx patients (n=11) were matched to non-PTx patients (n=20). PAR was lower in PTx group in comparison with non-PTx group (P=0.039), which was independent of parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. Multiple regression analysis showed that PTx, CI, and dialysate calcium remained independently associated with PAR variation and even adjusted for ultrafiltration rate (adjusted r(2)=0.64). In conclusion, parathyroidectomized patients have impaired capacity of vasoconstriction in response to ultrafiltration, an effect independent of serum PTH levels. Further studies are needed to elucidate mechanisms explaining the interaction between PTx and systemic vascular tonus.
