Significance Statement Because fluid overload in patients undergoing hemodialysis contributes to cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, there is a global trend use low-sodium dialysate with the goal of reducing overload. To investigate whether lower sodium during improves left ventricular mass, authors conducted randomized clinical trial 99 adults that compared (135 mM) conventional (140 for 12 months. Although participants showed significant improvement status, intervention had no effect...
This study aims to provide updated data on the incidence and prevalence of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in New Zealand examine difference between ethnic groups.We identified SLE cases from national administrative datasets. The date first identification was earliest a related inpatient event or outpatient event. crude 2010-2021 were estimated by gender, age group ethnicity. WHO (World Health Organization) age-standardised rate (ASR) calculated, after stratifying ethnicity gender.The...
It is unclear if haemodiafiltration improves patient survival compared with standard haemodialysis. Observational studies have tended to show benefit haemodiafiltration, while meta-analyses not provided definitive proof of superiority. Using data from the Australia and New Zealand Dialysis Transplant Registry, this binational inception cohort study all adult patients who commenced haemodialysis in between 2000 2014. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Cardiovascular mortality...
Abstract Background The current literature recognises that left ventricular hypertrophy makes a key contribution to the high rate of premature cardiovascular mortality in dialysis patients. Determining how we might intervene ameliorate populations has become research priority. Reducing sodium exposure through lower dialysate may be promising intervention this regard. However there is clinical equipoise around because benefit not yet been demonstrated robust prospective trial, and several...
