Etiology

Pathophysiology - underlying conditions

Pathophysiology - Consequences
Reduced GFR
↓ Production of urine → ↑ extracellular fluid volume → total-body volume overload
↓ Excretion of waste products (e.g., urea, drugs)
↓ Excretion of phosphate → hyperphosphatemia
During the early stages of CKD, plasma phosphate levels will typically be normal due to the increased secretion of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). [4]
FGF23 is produced by osteoblasts in response to initial hyperphosphatemia and increased calcitriol.
↓ Maintenance of acid-base balance; → metabolic acidosis
↓ Maintenance of electrolyte concentrations → electrolyte imbalances (e.g., Na+ retention)
Reduced endocrine activity
↓ production of calcitriol → (in combination with ↓ excretion of phosphate) → ↓ serum Ca2+ → ↑ PTH
↓ Erythropoietin → ↓ stimulation of erythropoiesis
