Evaluation of Oxidative Stress in Blood During Hemodialysis

Authors

Abstract:

The number of patients with end-stage renal disease is growing rapidly in Asia. Patients with end stage renal disease failure (ESRD) undergoing long term hemodialysis (HD) are at risk for high oxidative stress. There is paucity of information with regard to oxidative stress during HD. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate catalase enzyme activity in erythrocytes and the total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in plasma before, during and after dialysis in hemodialysis patients. The cross-sectional study carried out in thirty four patients (16 males and 18 females) having mean age of 55 ± 16 years undergoing HD three times per week were included. The enzyme activity of catalase was measured by UV Spectrophotometric method and total antioxidant capacity in plasma were observed by ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP) assay method. All tests were performed before, during and after the process of dialysis. The prevalence of erythrocyte catalase enzyme activity was observed to be significantly decreased (P<0.001) during (107.01 ± 36.2) and after (105.30± 36.75) dialysis as compared to its activity before (159.75 ± 30.98) dialysis. On the other hand, a total antioxidant capacity in plasma was noticed to be significantly elevated (P<0.001) during (648.52 ± 14.66) and after (573.08 ± 15.16) dialysis as compared to before (486.61 ± 14.86) dialysis. The study concluded that dialysis process affects erythrocyte catalase enzyme activity as well as total antioxidant capacity in plasma of patients. HD exacerbates oxidative stress and disturbances in antioxidant enzymes in patients.

Oxidative stress in Egyptian hemodialysis children.

INTRODUCTION Nitric oxide (NO) is one of the endothelium-dependent relaxing factors released by the vascular endothelium. It is decreased in chronic kidney disease. It was found that higher levels of circulating proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), IL-6, and IL-13 are associated with mortality. The aim of our study was to evalu...

evaluation of sadr eminence in safavid period

چکیده: یکی از دوره های مهم تاریخی ایران به لحاظ تأمین استقلال ملی مذهبی و حتی تأثیر آن بر فرهنگ و مذهب ایرانیان، دوره صفویه است. رسمیت دادن و رواج مذهب شیعه توسط شاه اسماعیل اول، یکی از مهمترین اقدامات این دولت محسوب می شود. بنابراین برای اجرای این سیاست، وی منصب صدارت را به عنوان منصبی مذهبی- حکو متی ایجاد کرد .این منصب از دوره ی تیموریان ایجاد شده بود ولی در اواخر این دوره اهمیت بیشتری یافت...

Critical evaluation of blood volume measurements during hemodialysis.

Devices that continuously measure relative blood volume (RBV) changes during hemodialysis (HD) are increasingly used for the prevention of dialysis hypotension and fine-tuning of dry weight. However, RBV measurements are subject to various limitations. First, RBV devices provide information on relative blood volume changes but not on absolute blood volume. Since blood volume varies with the hyd...

Evaluation of oxidative stress in endometriosis:A case-control study

Abstract Background: Recent studies have suggested that oxidative stress (OS) may have a contribution in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. However, the results of previous studies regarding OS in endometriosis are controversial. The objective of this study was to compare the serum levels of OS markers in endometriosis versus the control group. Methods: This case-control study was carried out...
