Sympathetic Activation in Chronic Renal Failure
Abstract
The potential involvement of sympathetic overactivity has been neglected in this population despite accumulating experimental and clinical evidence suggesting a crucial role of sympathetic activation for both progression of renal failure and the high rate of cardiovascular events in patients with chronic kidney disease. The contribution of sympathetic neural mechanisms to the occurrence of cardiac arrhythmias, the development of hypertension, and the progression of heart failure are well established; however, the exact mechanisms contributing to heightened sympathetic tone in patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear. This review analyses potential mechanisms underlying sympathetic activation in chronic kidney disease, the range of adverse consequences associated with this activation, and potential therapeutic implications resulting from this relationship.

“Sympathetic nervous system activation is present in patients with chronic kidney disease, intimated first with the finding of elevated plasma norepinephrine concentrations100–101, then more definitively with demonstration of whole-body norepinephrine spillover measurements and increased sympathetic nerve firing recorded with clinical microneurography48–51,102.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
