Nutritional Assessment of Renal Transplant Recipients Using DEXA and Biochemical Parameters
Among the many risk-factors that affect the outcomes of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), especially End-Stage-Renal-Disease, and on Maintenance Hemodialysis (MHD), Protein-Energy-Wasting (PEW) of CKD plays a major role [1-5]. Evaluating nutritional status is a critical component of physiologic health and fundamental to identifying PEW. Multiple studies indicate that PEW is closely associated with ...
متن کاملPREGNANCY IN RENAL TRANSPLANT RECIPIENTS
ABSTRACT Background: Correction of the uremic state by a functioning allograft often restores fertility in women of reproductive age. The rate of fertility significantly differs between industrial countries, developing and middle east countries. On the other hand the results of pregnancy in Kidney Transplantation (KTP) patients are significantly better than hemodialysis patients, and pregnancy...
متن کاملHistopathologic evaluation of Verrucous skin lesions in renal transplant recipients
Background: Warts are common in renal allograft recipients (RAR) with reported incidence of 24% to 100%. These patients also demonstrate an accelerated malignant transformation of warts. Although in immunocompetent patients, the histology of common warts is quite predictable, this is not so in RAR. Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the histopathologic findings of warty lesion...
متن کاملHomocysteine, nutritional status and insulin in renal transplant recipients.
BACKGROUND Hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for the development of cardiovascular conditions in chronic stable renal-transplant recipients (RTR). Major determinants of plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) in RTR are renal function and folate levels. The data dealing with the possible regulation of the tHcy metabolism by insulin and nutritional status is conflicting in non-transpla...
متن کاملAssessment of Arterial Stiffness, Volume, and Nutritional Status in Stable Renal Transplant Recipients
Reduction of cardiovascular death might have a significant effect on the long-term survival rates of renal transplant recipients (RTRs). The aim of the study was to assess the relation between arterial stiffness and graft function, adipose tissue content, and hydration status in patients after kidney transplantation (KTx).The study included 83 RTR patients (mean age: 55 ± 13 years) who had been...
