B-type natriuretic peptide is not a volume marker among patients on hemodialysis.
BACKGROUND Although the cardiac biomarker B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is strongly related to mortality in end-stage renal disease (ESRD), whether it is a predictor of weight change or blood pressure (BP) response upon probing dry weight among hypertensive hemodialysis patients remains unknown. The purpose of this study was to examine among people with hypertension on hemodialysis whether B...
متن کاملHemodialysis Volume-Associated Ambulatory Blood Pressure Patterns in Hemodialysis Patients
Although volume excess causes hypertension, whether it also affects circadian patterns of arterial pressures among hemodialysis patients remains unknown. To test the notion of whether volume overload is associated with a unique blood pressure (BP) “signature,” a posthoc analysis was performed among 145 patients participating in the Dry-Weight Reduction in Hypertensive Hemodialysis Patients rand...
متن کاملModeled urea distribution volume and mortality in the HEMO Study.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES In the Hemodialysis (HEMO) Study, observed small decreases in achieved equilibrated Kt/V(urea) were noncausally associated with markedly increased mortality. Here we examine the association of mortality with modeled volume (V(m)), the denominator of equilibrated Kt/V(urea). DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS Parameters derived from modeled urea kinetics (i...
متن کاملEvaluation of the effect of exercise on serum creatinine and urea nitrogen in hemodialysis patients
Introduction. Chronic renal failure is a progressive disease in which kidney function is impaired, so that the body can not metabolize and maintain fluid balance and electrolytes. Therefore, the present study investigated changes in serum creatinine and urea nitrogen in hemodialysis patients in response to exercise. Materials and Methods. The subjects of this study were dialysis patients who we...
متن کاملUremic thrombocytopathy is not about urea.
Platelet dysfunction in renal failure is attributable to high levels of small, partly dialyzable molecules known as uremic toxins, hence the term "uremic thrombocytopathy." Although a variety of moieties contribute to platelet dysfunction or abnormal interactions between platelets and the vascular wall, urea remains a potential factor. Here, we studied three family members with familial azotemi...
