Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of mortality in dialysis patients. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) has been proposed as cardiovascular risk marker this population. Subclinical hypothyroidism and low free triiodothyronine (fT3) levels are associated with EAT patients without chronic renal failure. The aim study was to investigate the relationship between T3 peritoneal (PD) patients.A total 125 prevalent PD were enrolled cross-sectional study. epicardial fat thickness (EFT) measured by...
Arterial stiffness is a risk marker for cardiovascular events in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Strict volume control strategy has been shown to result better cardiac functions and of hypertension these The aim the study was identify determinants arterial evaluate changes biomarkers PD patients under strict strategy.58 were enrolled into this prospective observational study. determined by aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV), echocardiography, ambulatory blood pressure NT-pro-BNP levels...
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> We aimed to study the characteristics of peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients with coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19), determine short-term mortality and other medical complications, delineate factors associated COVID-19 outcome. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> In this multicenter national study, we included PD confirmed from 27 centers. The baseline demographic, clinical, laboratory, radiological data outcomes at end first month...
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients have different peritoneal membrane permeability (transport) characteristics. High is associated with increased mortality risk in the patient population. In this study, we aimed to investigate possible factor(s) related high permeability.The study included 475 PD (46.1 ± 14.5 years of mean age; 198 female and 277 male). The were divided two groups according equilibration test (PET) result: high-permeability group (high high-average) low- (low-average low).In...
Introduction: There are not enough data on the post-COVID-19 period for peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients affected from COVID-19. We aimed to compare clinical and laboratory of PD after COVID-19 with a control group. Methods: This study, supported by Turkish Society Nephrology, is national, multicenter retrospective case-control study involving adult confirmed COVID-19, using collected April 21, 2021, June 11, 2021. A group was also formed each unit, similar characteristics but without...
OBJECTIVE: Hyperkalemia is an electrolyte imbalance that can lead to fatal results if not corrected. Patients with chronic kidney disease are prone be hyperkalemic. Knowing the factors associated hospital mortality in patients hospitalized for hyperkalemia may reduce caused by hyperkalemia. In present study, we aimed research MATERIAL AND METHODS: who were nephrology clinic between January 2019 and April 2022 whose serum potassium level was &gt;5.1 mEq/L included study. divided into two...
ABSTRACT Background Data on the prognostic factors for C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) are limited, and validation of new C3G histologic index (C3G-HI) in different settings is still needed. We aimed to evaluate chronicity score C3G-HI probable our population. Methods In this registry study, 74 patients from 20 centers with adequate follow-up data were included. Total (TCS) was calculated according percentages glomerulosclerosis, interstitial fibrosis, tubular atrophy, presence arterio-...
Immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy (IgAN) treatment consists of maximal supportive care and, for high-risk individuals, immunosuppressive (IST). There are conflicting results regarding IST. Therefore, we aimed to investigate IST among IgAN patients in Turkiye.
Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare blood pressure variability among irritable bowel syndrome subtypes. Methods: Patients with newly diagnosed and existing hypertension were included in the study. Average real (ARV) was calculated by consecutive one week home measurements. Groups compared for variability. Results: While diastolic ARV found be similar subtypes (p=0.919), a significant difference between them terms of systolic (p&lt;0.001). Conclusion: Since patients...
Objectives: One of the most important problems that will affect quality life and even progression patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is development anemia. Intravenous iron replacement therapy more frequently preferred in CKD because tolerance drugs often unsatisfactory treatment response. can cause hypophosphatemia mineral bone disorders seen patients. Our study was planned to examine effects intravenous preparations on calcium, phosphorus, parathormone levels, which are used treatment.
This study aimed to investigate the role of mean platelet volume (MPV) in predicting renal outcome acute kidney injury (AKI) developing on pre-existing chronic disease (CKD).The patients whose first hemodialysis program was initiated our center were divided into two groups as those who taken scheduled dialysis after discharge and not dialysis-dependent. Groups compared terms demographic characteristics, laboratory parameters including MPV.A total 288 included (scheduled = 162 patients,...
In this pilot study, we aimed at investigating the predictive power of pan-immune inflammation value (PIV) on response rates 6 months in idiopathic IgA nephropathy (IgAN) patients who started steroids.The study was conducted with diagnosed IgAN and treated 3-6 conservative treatment steroid therapy because proteinuria above 1 g/day. Patients lower than 0.3 g/day, no macroscopic hematuria, hematuria detected 3 consecutive urinalyses for were considered to be remission. PIV calculated by...
Objective: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an inflammatory process. Serum proinflammatory cytokines are known to be ten times higher in patients with CKD when compared normal population. Monocyte/High density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio (MHR) have been shown a new marker of inflammation and claimed that, it may used predict cardiovascular events CKD. This cross-sectional study aimed compare monocyte / HDL treated hemodialysis peritoneal dialysis. Methods: Files who followed up end...
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate treatment adherence and rational drug use in hemodialysis patients investigate predictive factors on dialysis adequacy. Materıals Methods: is a cross-sectional descriptive study. The data were obtained by examining face-to-face questionnaires patient files. Hospitalized Patient Questionnaire the End Stage Kidney Disease Compliance (ESRD-AQ) administered patients. Kt/V was used for proficiency. By data, variables that can be associated with value...
Aim: Hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis are renal replacement treatment options in patients with chronic failure. Mortality morbidity rates higher hemodialysis when compared to the healthy population. Comorbidities of play roles high mortality rates. In present study, comorbidities were evaluated; Charlson Comorbidity Index, whose reliability was proven many studies before, discussed.
 Materials Method: A total 154 (78 76 patients), who followed up for end-stage disease, included...
OBJECTIVE: Kidney transplantation is one of the types renal replacement therapy that can be performed in patients with end-stage disease. The power to perform activities require patient maintain his life and health called self-management power. Better outcomes are inevitable high In this study, we aimed investigate parameters affecting kidney transplant recipients.MATERIAL AND METHODS: All recipients who were followed up from nephrology outpatient clinic applied between July 2022 September...

Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare glycemic regulation parameters and proteinuria in patients with hypertension diabetic kidney disease (DKD) terms of 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) groups. Material-Methods: We retrospectively scanned all DKD who have ABPM for any reason. Patients were divided into three groups; dippers, non-dippers, reverse-dippers. Groups compared proteinuria.
