- The coexistence of osteoporosis and chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an evolving healthcare challenge in the face of increasingly aging populations. Globally, accelerating fracture incidence causes disability, impaired quality of life and increased mortality. Consequently, several novel diagnostic and therapeutic tools have been introduced for treatment and prevention of fragility fractures. Despite an especially high fracture risk in CKD, these patients are commonly excluded from interventional trials and clinical guidelines. While management of fracture risk in CKD has been discussed in recent opinion-based reviews and consensus papers in the nephrology literature, many patients with CKD stages 3–5D and osteoporosis are still underdiagnosed and untreated. The current review addresses this potential treatment nihilism by discussing established and novel approaches to diagnosis and prevention of fracture risk in patients with CKD stages 3–5D. Skeletal disorders are common in CKD. A wide variety of underlying pathophysiological processes have been identified, including premature aging, chronic wasting, and disturbances in vitamin D and mineral metabolism, which may impact bone fragility beyond established osteoporosis. We discuss current and emerging concepts of CKD–mineral and bone disorders (CKD-MBD) and integrate management of osteoporosis in CKD with current recommendations for management of CKD-MBD. While many diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to osteoporosis can be applied to patients with CKD, some limitations and caveats need to be considered. Consequently, clinical trials are needed that specifically study fracture prevention strategies in patients with CKD stages 3–5D.

- Disturbances in calcium metabolism are common in individuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD), but whether they are associated with subsequent kidney function decline is less clear. In a CKD 3–5 cohort of 15,755 adult citizens of Stockholm with creatinine tests taken during 2006–2011 and concurrent calcium testing at cohort entry, we investigated the association between baseline serum calcium and the subsequent change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, by CKD-EPI) decline using linear mixed models. Mean (SD) baseline corrected serum calcium was 9.6 (0.5) mg/dL. Mean (95%-confidence interval [CI]) eGFR decline was −0.82 (−0.90; −0.74) mL/min/1.73 m2/year. In advanced CKD stages, higher baseline serum calcium was associated with less rapid kidney function decline. The adjusted change (95%-CI) in eGFR decline associated with each mg/dL increase in baseline serum calcium was −0.10 (−0.28; 0.26), 0.39 (0.07; 0.71), 0.34 (−0.02; 0.70) and 0.68 (0.36; 1.00) mL/min/1.73 m2/year for individuals in CKD stage 3a, 3b, 4, and 5, respectively. In a subgroup of patients using vitamin D supplements, the association between baseline serum calcium and CKD progression was eliminated, especially in CKD stage 3b and 4. To conclude, in individuals with CKD stage 3b to 5, lower baseline corrected serum calcium, rather than higher baseline serum calcium, associated with a more rapid CKD progression. Lower serum corrected calcium seems to be indicative for vitamin D deficiency.

- Background Digital healthcare systems data could provide insights into the global prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD). We designed the CaReMe CKD study to estimate the prevalence, key clinical adverse outcomes and costs of CKD across 11 countries. Methods Individual-level data of a cohort of 2.4 million contemporaneous CKD patients was obtained from digital healthcare systems in participating countries using a pre-specified common protocol; summarized using random effects meta-analysis. CKD and its stages were defined in accordance with current Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. CKD was defined by laboratory values or by a diagnosis code. Findings The pooled prevalence of possible CKD was 10.0% (95% confidence interval 8.5-11.4; mean pooled age 75, 53% women, 38% diabetes, 60% using renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors). Two out of three CKD patients identified by laboratory criteria did not have a corresponding CKD-specific diagnostic code. Among CKD patients identified by laboratory values, the majority (42%) were in KDIGO stage 3A; and this fraction was fairly consistent across countries. The share with CKD based on urine albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) alone (KDIGO stages one and two) was 29%, with a substantial heterogeneity between countries. Adverse events were common; 6.5% were hospitalized for CKD or heart failure, and 6.2% died, annually. Costs for renal events and heart failure were consistently higher than costs for atherosclerotic events in CKD patients across all countries. Interpretation We estimate that CKD is present in one out often adults. These individuals experience significant adverse outcomes with associated costs. The prevalence of CKD is underestimated when using diagnostic codes alone. There is considerable public health potential in diagnosing CKD and providing treatments to those currently undiagnosed.
