Urate-Lowering Therapy in the Treatment of Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease
CKD-FIX Elevated serum urate levels are associated with progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In the CKD-FIX study, a randomized, controlled trial, Badve et al. set out to determine whether urate-lowering treatment with allopurinol can attenuate the decline of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients with chronic kidney disease at risk for progression.1…
