Filter by:Cardiovascular events are still the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with ESRD including hemodialysis patients . Although the conventional risk factors of CVD are relatively recognized in general population, an inverse epidemiologic relationship has been reported for many CV risk factors in CKD patients, including hypertension, BMI and lipid profile .Therefore, a comprehensive investigation is necessary to be able to do effective risk management strategies in this population and some surrogate markers are required to be determined for illustrating the net effect of the risk factors. While several mechanisms have been attributed to hypertension in hemodialysis (HD) patients, the exact pathogenesis, impact, monitoring and control of hypertension in HD patients are still challenging subjects in clinical nephrology. Both low and high BP associate with higher mortality in HD. But a reliable marker for defining an optimal BP in HD is still an important question. It seems that arterial stiffness play an axial role in the cardiovascular and renal adverse outcomes in CKD and HD, as it is in several other populations , Arterial stiffness has been demonstrated as an independent predictor of mortality in hemodialysis patients . However, hemodialysis patients experience a fluctuating hemodynamic state and there are several limitations for consecutive measurement of arterial stiffness indices such as pulse wave velocity (PWV). Furthermore, the expensive measurement devices and expert operators might not be available in every dialysis center.
The purpose of this study is to check if patients' exercise during their dialysis sessions can improve the blood parameters which affect the heart disease and osteoporosis, so that we can help patients live longer.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the supplementation with tocotrienol, a vitamin E compound on inflammation, oxidative stress, and microbiota on Chronic Kidney Disease patients.
The purpose of this study is to check if patients' exercise during their dialysis sessions can prevent their early deaths.
This study is a randomized controlled and single-blind study consisting of qualitative and quantitative stages to evaluate the effect of aromatherapy massage on cramp frequency, cramp pain severity and quality of life in crampy hemodialysis (HD) patients.
This study is to investigate the acute postprandial effect of a modified versus standard low phosphorus diet on serum phosphate, potassium and intact parathyroid levels in prevalent hemodialysis (HD) patients
This study is a single blind, randomized parallel controlled experimental study planned to determine the effect of distant reiki, which is one of the non-pharmacological methods, on fatigue and comfort level in hemodialysis patients. The hypothesis of the study is that distant reiki increases patients comfort and reduces fatigue.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the prevalence and recurrence of Hyperkalaemia (HK) in Chinese HD patients and to understand the treatment pattern of HK in China.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of whole body vibration for 12 weeks on walking performance in elderly hemodialysis patients.
Removal of uremic toxins is the main goal of HD, It was improved by using high volume convective technique with high flux (HF) dialyzer. This technique removes medium - large molecular weight solutes giving higher dialysis adequacy and consequently improving the quality of life. This study will assess the effect of hemodiafiltration (HDF) versus high flux dialysis on free light chains (FLC) reduction as a marker of HD adequacy and its relation to albumin loss using dialyzer effective surface area 2.6m2.
