Neutrophil apoptosis and dysfunction in uremia.
The high prevalence of bacterial infections among patients with end-stage renal disease suggests that "professional" phagocytes such as neutrophils are functionally impaired. This dysfunction has been ascribed to uremic toxins, malnutrition, and dialysis. The aim of this study was to investigate the contribution of apoptosis to neutrophil dysfunction in uremia. Neutrophils harvested from uremic...
متن کاملAutonomic dysfunction in uremia.
Autonomic nervous system dysfunction is a common feature in uremia and may have a number of clinical sequelae. Simple cardiovascular reflex screening can be performed in patients during conservative treatment, on periodic dialysis therapy, or after kidney transplantation to diagnose and follow up autonomic function impairment. Other approaches, such as heart-rate variability studies in the freq...
متن کاملDoes Uremia Cause Vascular Dysfunction?
Vascular dysfunction induced by uremia has 4 main aspects. (1) Atherosclerosis is increased. Intima-media thickness is increased, and animal studies have established that uremia accelerates atherosclerosis. Uremic toxins are involved in several steps of atherosclerosis. Leukocyte activation is stimulated by guanidines, advanced glycation end products (AGE), p-cresyl sulfate, platelet diadenosin...
