chronic kidney disease (CKD)

Genetics: - FAT10 may mediate NF-kappa-B activation & may promote tubulointerstitial inflammation in chronic kidney diseases Diagnostic criteria: - abnormal kidney struture or function for > 3 months - a marker of kidney damage - albuminuria - abnormal urine sediment - electrolyte disorder due to renal tubular dysfunction - abnormal renal histology - abnormal renal imaging (structure abnormalities) - renal transplantation OR - GFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 [3] Laboratory: - see chronic renal failure Radiology: - renal ultrasonography is often the 1st imaging modality [3] Complications: - see chronic renal failure Staging: 1) GFR or G staging a) stage 1: GFR > 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 b) stage 2: GFR = 60-89 mL/min/1.73 m2 c) stage 3: GFR = 30-59 mL/min/1.73 m2 - stage 3a: GFR = 45-59 mL/min/1.73 m2 - stage 3b: GFR = 30-44 mL/min/1.73 m2 d) stage 4: GFR = 15-29 mL/min/1.73 m2 e) stage 5: GFR < 15 mL/min/1.73 m2 2) albuminuria or A classification a) stage A1: urine albumin/creatinine ratio: < 30 mg/gram b) stage A2: urine albumin/creatinine ratio: 30-300 mg/gram c) stage A3: urine albumin/creatinine ratio: > 300 mg/gram Management: - see chronic renal failure Notes: - USPSTF & American College of Physicians recommend against screening asymptomatic adults due to insufficient evidence [2] - American Society of Nephrology recommends screening all adults [3] - persons with a family history of chronic kidney disease should be screened [3]
