Abstract Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and immunosuppression, such as in renal transplantation (RT), stand one of the established potential risk factors for severe coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19). Case morbidity mortality rates any type infection have always been much higher CKD, haemodialysis (HD) RT patients than general population. A large study comparing COVID-19 outcome moderate to advanced CKD (Stages 3–5), HD with a control group is still lacking. Methods We conducted...
To evaluate the relationship between neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR), and inflammation in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients on maintenance hemodialysis (HD).100 ESRD HD (mean ± SD age: 52.3 1.7 years, 52% were males) included this cross-sectional study. Data patient demographics, dry weight, body mass index, duration of (months), etiology ESRD, delivered dose dialysis (spKt/V), complete blood count, biochemistry inflammatory markers including hs-CRP...
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) and the severity of AKI linked to adverse outcomes. In this study, we investigated factors associated with in-hospital outcomes among hospitalized patients COVID-19 AKI.
Although not mandatory for patients, many Muslims fast in Ramadan. We aimed to investigate the effects of long hours (17.5) fasting on renal functions patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Stage 3-5 CKD stable function were recruited this prospective observational study three months ahead Ramadan 2015. All instructed regarding possible deleterious dehydration caused by fasting. Forty-five (mean age 66.8 ± 10.3 years, 68.8% male) chose and 49 (mean, age: 64.1 12.6 51% fast. Clinical...
To evaluate the clinical outcomes and identify predictors of mortality in elderly patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis.We conducted a retrospective study including all incident dialysis cases ≥65 years age treated from 2001 to 2014. Demographic data on initiation events during period were collected. Infectious complications recorded. Overall technique survival rates analyzed.Fifty-eight who began considered for analysis, 50 these included final analysis. Peritoneal exchanges performed by...
Abstract Background The most common cause of end-stage kidney disease is diabetes mellitus (DM). commonly used renal replacement therapy in our country and many countries around the world hemodialysis (HD). Glycemia control important these populations. In this study, we aimed to screen for glycemic complications a large population diabetic HD patients country. Methods 16043 were screened 253 dialysis centers Turkey. 5038 included study. At participating centers, patients' history,...
Hemodialysis (HD) patients have increased risk for short-term adverse outcomes of COVID-19. However, complications and survival at the post-COVID-19 period not been published extensively.We conducted a national, multicenter observational study that included adult maintenance HD recovered from confirmed A control group without COVID-19 was selected in same center. We investigated characteristics follow-up compare them with non-COVID-19 group.A total 1223 (635 group, 588 group) 47 centers were...
Background . The aim of this study is to assess renal damage incidence in patients with solitary kidney and detect factors associated progression. Methods Medical records 75 were investigated retrospectively divided into two groups: unilateral nephrectomy (group 1) agenesis/dysplasia 2). According the presence damage, each group was subgroups: 1a/b 2a/b. Results Patients 1 older than those 2 (<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive value malnutrition-inflammation score (MIS) on short-term mortality and identify best cut-off point in Turkish maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) population.A total 100 patients MHD were included prospective single-center study. Demographic, anthropometric, biochemical data obtained from all patients. population followed up as a 12-month cohort primary outcome.Median (IQR) age HD vintage (M/F: 52/48) 53 (39.5 - 67) years 53.5 (11 104.7)...
Attaining and maintaining optimal “dry weight” is one of the principal goals during maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). Recent studies have shown a close relationship between Na+ load serum vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) levels; thus, we aimed to investigate role VEGF-C as candidate biomarker hypervolemia. Physical examination, basic laboratory tests, N-terminal pro b-type natriuretic peptide (NT-ProBNP), echocardiography, bioimpedance spectroscopy data 3 groups study subjects...
To evaluate the clinical outcome, identify predictors of patient and technique survival in our peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients western region Turkey.We included all who initiated therapy between 2001 2010. Socio-demographic characteristics such as helped to administer PD well conditions under which was chosen by were investigated from patients' files. Hemodialysis (HD) history duration, additional systemic diseases, end-stage renal disease etiologies recorded. Clinical data blood pressure,...
Abstract Introduction: Air embolism (AE) is a rare, but serious complication that can occur in the practice of hemodialysis. In contrast to careful techniques and meticulous care during insertions manipulations central catheters, awareness risk AE following catheter removal less. We aimed analyze clinical characteristics all case reports with after summarize mechanisms, consequences, treatment prevention AE. Methods: addition our case, MEDLINE database was searched for removal, clinical,...
The aim of this study was to evaluate serum uric acid levels, inflammatory markers [C-reactive protein (CRP), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR)] mean platelet volume (MPV) among hypertensive patients with or without chronic kidney disease (CKD) respect dipping status.A total 432 (n = 340) 92) CKD who had ambulatory blood pressure monitoring recordings were included. Correlation levels (CRP, PLR, NLR) evaluated as the logistic regression analysis for...
Objective Older adults with co-morbidities have been reported to be at higher risk for adverse outcomes of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The characteristics COVID-19 in older patients and its clinical different kidney groups are not well known. Methods Data were retrieved from a national multicentric database supported by Turkish Society Nephrology, which consists retrospectively collected data between 17 April 2020 31 December 2020. Hospitalised aged 18 years or confirmed diagnosis...
OBJECTIVES:The goal of this study was to evaluate the relationship between serum albumin levels and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (24-h ABPM) recordings in non-diabetic essential hypertensive patients.METHODS: A total 354 patients (mean [SD] age: 55.5 [14.3] years, 50% females) with hypertension 24-h ABPM were included.Patient nighttime daytime values, systolic diastolic dipping status average nocturnal recorded.The correlations evaluated, correlates determined via a linear...
Hospital-acquired acute kidney injury (HA-AKI) may commonly develop in Covid-19 patients and is expected to have higher mortality. There little comparative data investigating the effect of HA-AKI on mortality chronic disease (CKD) a control group general population suffering from Covid-19.HA-AKI development was assessed stage 3–5 CKD without among adult hospitalized for Covid-19. The role AKI outcome (in-hospital admission intensive care unit [ICU]) with compared.Among 621 (age 60 [IQR:...
Neutrophilgelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) has been proven to be a useful biomarker for early detection of acute kidney injury, but it is not known whether adding NGAL measurements conventional risk factors will improve the assessment in setting chronic disease (CKD). The aim present study was examine correlation with stage renal impairment CKD and evaluate its prognostic value these subjects.This prospective observational cohort 54 patients (stage 1-2) CKD. Patients aged between 18 65...
