Cardiovascular Disease in Hemodialysis Patients
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a most common complication and a chief cause of death in pa‐ tients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) accounting for 45% to 50% of causes of death in ESRD patients. In ESRD patients, mortality due to CVD is 10~30 times higher than in the general pop‐ ulation. 80% patients on maintenance homodialysis (MHD) had cardiovascular complication. In Chinese patients, th...
متن کاملCognitive function among hemodialysis patients in Japan
BACKGROUND Over 290,000 patients are undergoing hemodialysis (HD) in Japan. With old age, the odds of undergoing HD treatment sharply increase, as does the prevalence of cognitive impairment. The aim of the present work was to assess cognitive impairment in HD patients and its relation to clinical characteristics. METHODS Using a cross-sectional design, we administered the Mini-Mental State E...
متن کاملSerum Eicosapentaenoic and Arachidonic Acids Concentration and Cognitive Function in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease
Introduction: Recent studies have shown that Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFAs), including Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA), and Arachidonic Acid (AA), are associated with cognitive functions in patients with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Nevertheless, controversial results have been reported, too. The current study aimed to clarify the association of serum EPA and AA levels with cognitive decline...
متن کاملCardiovascular risk factors and diseases strongly predict hemodialysis treatment outcome in maintenance hemodialysis patients.
AIM To identify independent predictors of hemodialysis treatment outcome among major cardiovascular risk factors and pre-existent cardiovascular diseases in maintenance hemodialysis patients with the end-stage renal disease. METHODS A total of 144 prevalent patients on maintenance hemodialysis at Rijeka University Hospital between 1998 and 2003 were included in the prospective clinical study....
متن کاملFrailty and Cognitive Function in Incident Hemodialysis Patients.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Patients of all ages undergoing hemodialysis (HD) have a high prevalence of cognitive impairment and worse cognitive function than healthy controls, and those with dementia are at high risk of death. Frailty has been associated with poor cognitive function in older adults without kidney disease. We hypothesized that frailty might also be associated with poor cognitive ...
