Abstract

The metabolic syndrome has become an increasing health problem in the world, both, in developing and in developed countries. It is well known that the metabolic syndrome components (obesity, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and insulin resistance) increases the incidence and therefore the morbidity and mortality caused by cardiovascular diseases. There are studies that also suggest the association between the metabolic syndrome and the development and progression of chronic renal disease. The correlation between the single entities of the metabolic syndrome such as hypertension and insulin resistance in the development of chronic renal failure is well known, but there are still dilemmas and discussions about the effect of the complete metabolic syndrome in the renal function impairment. The possible renal function damaging mechanisms includes insulin resistance, oxidative stress, microvascular damage and ischemia of the kidneys.

The aim of this article is to systematize the data collected from studies that suggest association of these two pathological conditions, to better understanding how the components of the metabolic syndrome affect the progression of chronic renal disease, the reduction in the glomerular filtration rate and the renal patophysiological changes.

The present article comprises recent information and findings and their application in the treatment of metabolic syndrome associated with CKD including reduction of body weight, lifestyle change with a modified diet and adequate physical activity.
