Description

Uric Acid in Chronic Kidney Disease (Contributions to Nephrology, Vol. 192) (PDF)

by A. Treviño-Becerra (Editor),‎ K. Iseki (Editor),‎ C. Ronco (Series Editor)

Hyperuricemia is often associated with life-style related disorders such as diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, which, in turn, are major causes of CKD. Improved management of hyperuricemia is thus expected to be beneficial for both the general population and CKD patients. This book presents new information on uric acid in tubular transport, early recognition of renal lesions, genetic predisposition, preeclampsia, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, high blood pressure in the young, and the relationship with vitamin D. Moreover, the relationship between AKI and uric acid, as well as the rejection of renal transplants due to hyperuricemia, are discussed. This publication will be of interest to both general practitioners and researchers working in the field of CKD. It provides new insights into renal damage caused by hyperuricemia and into prevention and treatment possibilities.

This book provides valuable information on the relationship between hyperuricemia and various life-style related disorders, including diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, which are major causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The book discusses new research on uric acid in tubular transport, early recognition of renal lesions, genetic predisposition, preeclampsia, metabolic syndrome, diabetes, high blood pressure in the young, and the relationship with vitamin D. Additionally, the book explores the relationship between acute kidney injury (AKI) and uric acid, as well as the rejection of renal transplants due to hyperuricemia. The book is essential reading for general practitioners and researchers working in the field of CKD, as it provides new insights into the prevention and treatment of renal damage caused by hyperuricemia.
