Nutritional and Dietary Management of Chronic Kidney Disease under Conservative and Preservative Kidney Care without Dialysis
While dialysis has been the prevailing treatment paradigm for patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD), emphasis on conservative and preservative management in which dietary interventions are a major cornerstone have emerged. Based on high-quality evidence, international guidelines support the utilization of low-protein diets as an intervention to reduce CKD progression and mortality risk, although the precise thresholds (if any) for dietary protein intake vary across recommendations.

‘Phos’tering a clear message: the evolution of dietary phosphorus management in chronic kidney disease
Phosphorus is a vital nutrient, but disturbances in phosphorus homeostasis are central to chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder. To minimize disturbances, traditional dietary guidance focused on a numerical phosphorus target leading to the exclusion of many healthy foods and implementation challenges. Contemporary phosphorus guidance focuses on dietary source, avoiding additives, and emphasizing low-phosphorus bioaccessibility foods, leading to a more liberal approach. Additional work is needed to demonstrate the efficacy of these contemporary approaches and understand the influence of specific foods, processing...

Food Insecurity and Chronic Kidney Disease: Considerations for Practitioners
The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated existing health disparities related to food security status. Emerging literature suggests individuals with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) who are also food insecure have a greater likelihood of disease progression compared to food secure individuals. However, the complex relationship between CKD and food insecurity (FI) is under studied relative to other chronic conditions. The purpose of this practical application article is to summarize the recent literature on the social-economic, nutritional, to care through which FI may negatively impact health outcomes in individuals with CKD. (Sou...

Recommendation of Simultaneously Assessing Abdominal Fat and Muscle —A Clue to Disclose a Mystery of the “Obesity Paradox”
I recently read an interesting article by Iida et al., published in the Journal of Renal Nutrition.1 In this article, Iida et al. prospectively examined the association of the abdominal fat area (AFA), which is composed of a visceral fat area (VFA) and subcutaneous fat area (SFA) measured by computed tomography (CT), and all-cause mortality in p atients receiving hemodialysis. The authors found that the ratio of VFA to AFA (%VFA) increased each year gradually among surviving patients. However, a higher %VFA at baseline was independently associated with all-cause mortality.

Association of dietary potassium intake with abdominal aortic calcification and pulse pressure in US adults
Arterial calcification contributes to cardiovascular mortality. Based on a recent animal study, we hypothesized that higher dietary potassium intake was associated with less abdominal aortic calcification (AAC) and lower arterial stiffness among adults in the United States.
