Hyperparathyroidism, Serum Phosphorus and Dietary Intake in Hemodialysis Patients
Garagarza, Cristina; Valente, Ana; Queirós, Cátia; Neto, Inês Pastor; Sebastião, Joana; Gomes, Melanie; Ferreira, AníbalPublisher Copyright: © 2024 by the authors.; The management of hyperparathyroidism (intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) serum levels > 585 pg/mL), frequently focuses on the appropriate control of mineral and bone markers, with the decrease in serum and dietary phosphorus as two of the targets. We aimed to investigate the association between iPTH, serum phosphorus levels and dietary intake. This was a cross-sectio...

Potassium Intake—(Un)Expected Non-Predictor of Higher Serum Potassium Levels in...
Garagarza, Cristina; Valente, Ana; Caetano, Cristina; Ramos, Inês; Sebastião, Joana; Pinto, Mariana; Oliveira, Telma; Ferreira, AníbalPublisher Copyright: © 2022 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.; As high serum potassium levels can lead to adverse outcomes in hemodialysis (HD) patients, dietary potassium is frequently restricted in these patients. However, recent studies have questioned whether dietary potassium really affects serum potassium levels. The dietary approaches to stop hypertension (DASH) diet is considered a heal...
