چکیده
Baseline differences between patients without heart disease (HD) and with HD were assessed by the chi-squared test for categorical data. Quantitative data were tested for normality using the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test. The t-test was used to test differences for normally distributed data; otherwise the Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used. Clinical baseline data comparing these groups are visualized in Table S1. Age, adapted Charlson comorbidity index (adapted CCI), serum albumin, and anticoagulant medication were significantly different between these groups.

Challenging Recently Published Parameter Sets for Entropy Measures in Risk Prediction for End-Stage Renal Disease Patients
Heart rate variability (HRV) analysis is a non-invasive tool for assessing cardiac health. Entropy measures quantify the chaotic properties of HRV, but they are sensitive to the choice of their required parameters. Previous studies therefore have performed parameter optimization, targeting solely their particular patient cohort. In contrast, this work aimed to challenge entropy measures with re...
متن کاملACE I/D and MMP-7 A-181G variants and the risk of end stage renal disease
The variants of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) genes might be involved in the pathogenesis of end stage renal disease (ESRD) and hypertension. We studied the ACE insertion/deletion (I/D) and MMP-7 A-181G variants in 99 unrelated ESRD patients and 117 individuals without renal complications from Western Iran with Kurdish ethnic background. The frequency ...

متن کاملIntravenous Regional Anesthesia (Bier Block) Method for Arteriovenous Fistula creation in patients with End Stage Renal Disease
Introduction: Hemodialysis through creation of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is an established surgical procedure for patients with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Anesthetic methods management for this surgery should deal with different risk factors such as hypertension, ischemic heart disease and diabetes. Intravenous Regional Anesthesia (IVRA) or Bier block anesthesia as an option for AVF...
