    For a US perspective, see the KDOQI clinical practice guidelines [10] and for a United Kingdom perspective see: U.K. Renal Association clinical practice guidelines [11] According to the US guidelines, for thrice a week dialysis a Kt/V (without rebound) should be 1.2 at a minimum with a target value of 1.4 (15% above the minimum values). However ...

    The various ways of computing standardized Kt/V by Gotch, [1] Leypoldt, [5] and the FHN trial network [6] are all a bit different, as assumptions differ on equal spacing of treatments, use of a fixed or variable volume model, and whether or not urea rebound is taken into effect. [7]

  4. Hyperphosphatemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperphosphatemia

    PTH normally inhibits reabsorption of phosphate by the kidney. Therefore, without enough PTH there is more reabsorption of the phosphate leading to a high phosphate level in the blood. [citation needed] Chronic kidney failure: When the kidneys are not working well, there will be increased phosphate retention. [citation needed]

  5. Secondary hyperparathyroidism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_hyperparathyroidism

    Secondary hyperparathyroidism can also result from malabsorption (chronic pancreatitis, small bowel disease, malabsorption-dependent bariatric surgery) in that the fat-soluble vitamin D can not get reabsorbed. This leads to hypocalcemia and a subsequent increase in parathyroid hormone secretion in an attempt to increase the serum calcium levels.

    The normal range of GFR, adjusted for body surface area, is 100–130 average 125 (mL/min)/(1.73 m 2) in men and 90–120 (mL/min)/(1.73 m 2) in women younger than the age of 40. In children, GFR measured by inulin clearance is 110 (mL/min)/(1.73 m 2 ) until 2 years of age in both sexes, and then it progressively decreases.

  8. Primary hyperparathyroidism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_hyperparathyroidism

    Primary hyperparathyroidism (or PHPT) is a medical condition where the parathyroid gland (or a benign tumor within it) produce excess amounts of parathyroid hormone (PTH). ). The symptoms of the condition relate to the resulting elevated serum calcium (hypercalcemia), which can cause digestive symptoms, kidney stones, psychiatric abnormalities, and bone dis

    If this is successful, PTH levels return to normal levels, unless PTH secretion has become autonomous (tertiary hyperparathyroidism). [50] Hyperphosphatemia may be treated by decreasing dietary intake of phosphate. If phosphate remains persistently elevated above 5.5 mg/dL with dietary restriction, then phosphate binders may be used. [55]
