Résumé

Chronic kidney disease is prevalent, affecting more than one in ten adults. In this population, metabolic acidosis is considered a key underlying pathophysiological feature, tying together bone mineral disorders, sarcopenia, insulin resistance, vascular calcification, pro-inflammatory and pro-thrombotic states. This review aims to address the paucity of literature on alkalinizing agents, a promising treatment option that has known adverse effects.
