Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a pathological process with various etiologies, causing decreased function progressively and irreversibly. The prevalence of CKD in the last ten years has increased. Causative factors vary highly each countries around world. Hemodialysis still primary therapy besides peritoneal dialysis transplantation. This study aims to discover causative chronic patients hemod...

BACKGROUND Incident hemodialysis patients have the highest mortality in the first several months after starting dialysis. This study evaluated the in-hospital mortality rate after hemodialysis initiation, as well as related risk factors. METHODS We examined in-hospital mortality and related factors in 2,692 patients starting incident hemodialysis. The study population included patients with a...

African Americans have a markedly higher incidence of ESRD compared with other racial groups. Two variants in the APOL1 gene, to date observed only among individuals of recent African ancestry, associate with increased risk for renal disease among African Americans. Here, we investigated whether these risk alleles also associate with age at initiation of chronic hemodialysis. We performed a cro...

endoscopic findings in chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis

Chronic kidney disease not only impacts physical status but also psychological leading to low quality of life. Patients with chronic often receive hemodialysis as replacement therapy for function. Studies preventing the deterioration life were published in literature. However, none discusses combination between intradialytic exercise and cognitive behavior therapy. Therefore, review aims at eva...

AIMS chronic inflammation contributes significantly to the morbidity and mortality of chronic hemodialysis patients. A recent research has shown that adipokines were associated with inflammation in these patients. We aim to investigate whether biomarkers of inflammation, adipokines, and clinical features can predict the outcome of hemodialysis patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS we enrolled 181 h...

Objective This study aims to define risk factors as well as their association with microbiology and clinical outcomes in a large US infective endocarditis population. Methods Hospital records were searched for appropriate infective endocarditis-related ICD codes from 16 July 2007 to 13 August 2015. A total of 363 cases were retrospectively identified that met definite Modified Duke Criteria f...

INTRODUCTION Routine hemodialysis is one of the preferred treatment methods in patients with chronic kidney disease. It seems that routine hemodialysis can be effective in improving sexual function in these patients. This study aimed to determine the effect of routine dialysis sessions over a six-month period on the status of sexual function in men with chronic renal failure using the Internati...

Periarticular tissue calcifications are common in patients with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis. We report the case of a patient on chronic hemodialysis for 10 years with significant improvement of isolated pseudotumoral calcinosis of the right hand after parathyroidectomy The aim of this study was to show the impact of parathyroidectomy on pseudotumoral calcinosis.
