ABSTRACT
Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a public health problem, the most serious manifestation of CKD, subsidiary chronic renal disease on dialysis therapy or kidney transplantation, has an incidence and prevalence increasing for two decades. These patients are at high cardiovascular risk and suffer morbidity and mortality from cardiovascular events. The mineral and bone disorder (MBD) is a common manifestation of CKD and contributes to the high risk of fractures and cardiovascular mortality in these patients. Definitive diagnosis is based on histological (histomorphometric) analysis of bone biopsy material with the support of radiological changes and changes in levels of surrogate markers laboratory. Of these various markers, parathyroid hormone (PTH) has been considered to be the most sensitive and is currently the most commonly used. An alternative or complementary approach using alkaline phosphatase (ALP), which is directly related to bone turnover is proposed, reflecting bone histomorphometry. The limitation of laboratory studies in various hospitals for diagnosis leads us to value cheaper and more effective options of assessment.
Objective: To assess whether the determination of alkaline phosphatase can function as parallel marker to PTH in the diagnosis of secondary hyperparathyroidism in chronic kidney disease.
Material and method: A cross-sectional study and analytical correlation was done with clinical records of patients of internal medicine hospital health secretary of Mexico City, having the diagnosis of chronic kidney disease who were on replacement therapy in renal function. It was considered the following laboratory parameters: serum glucose determination, creatinine, BUN, urea, hemoglobin, parathyroid hormone, alkaline phosphatase, calcium, phosphorus and calcium/phosphorus product was determined. One review of the record was made seeking as the end point if there was a correlation between elevated alkaline phosphatase and parathyroid hormone and as a secondary point if it can be useful as an alternative marker for diagnosis of secondary hyperparathyroidism in patients with chronic disease was made. Correlation between serum PTH and alkaline phosphatase value where linear regression was applied and tested using Pearson correlation for both, in order to determine whether there is a direct relationship between them, yielding correlation and significance was conducted.
Results: The average PTH and alkaline phosphatase were 1,599 and 621, respectively; correlation between PTH and alkaline phosphatase was statistically significant (with a correlation index of 0.27 and p less than 0.001); it was also showed that for every unit of PTH, alkaline phosphatase increased 56 units.
Conclusions: The determination of alkaline phosphatase can be used as an alternative in the diagnosis of secondary hyperparathyroidism in CKD patients on peritoneal dialysis, since it is an affordable resource for patients.
