Background. Gastric cancer is the world 5th top malignancy, with treatment success largely conditioned by comorbidity. Patients with end-stage renal failure developed with chronic kidney disease could not expect a specialty cancer treatment before the advent of long-term haemodialysis.Aim. A case description of successful perioperative therapy and surgery in a long-term haemodialysis patient performed by a multi-specialty team of oncologists and transplantologists.Materials and methods. We case-illustrate surgical treatment options in a gastric cancer patient with long-term haemodialysis.Results and discussion. A specialty oncological treatment of end-stage renal failure patients requiring long-term haemodialysis is a complex multidisciplinary task feasible in hospitals equipped for different haemodialysis regimens. The treatment plan should be laid out by a multi-specialty team, as chronic kidney disease influences the choice of the drug class, dosage and administration mode. Moreover, such patients need laboratory (control of acid-base balance, haemoglobin, electrolytes, creatinine and urea) and clinical (body weight, liquid balance, etc.) monitoring.Conclusion. Perioperative management studies in gastric cancer and chronic kidney disease-comorbid patients under long-term haemodialysis is a promising area of combining eff ort in oncology and transplantation science. Further research is needed in this topic for data enrichment and analysis in complex comorbidity patients.

A kidney health check was conducted over a day in two private hospitals (Peninsula Private Hospital and Beleura Hospital) in 2017. 243 participants enrolled in this study. The study population were mobile inpatients, members from the public and health workers (nurses, doctors, allied health workers and administrative staff). Method: A Q risk calculator was used to assess the risk of developing moderate and severe chronic kidney disease (eGFR <60 mls/min) and end stage renal failure over the next 5 years. All participants consented prior to being involved in the study. Results: The majority was aged 65 to 75 years old (aged population). 18% of the participants were diabetic, 18% had cardiovascular disease, 37% were hypertensive, 5% were smokers, 28% of the participants were overweight and obesity was seen in 25%. Diabetic females are five times higher risk than non-diabetic females in developing chronic kidney disease stage 3 and 4. Male diabetics are three times more at risk than non-diabetic men in developing moderate to severe chronic kidney disease. However diabetic men are five times higher risk than normoglycaemic men in progressing into end stage renal failure Females with cardiovascular disease are five times higher risk than women with no cardiovascular disease in developing moderate to severe chronic kidney disease. Men with cardiovascular disease are three times higher risk than men with no cardiovascular disease in developing moderate to severe chronic kidney disease. Hypertensive women are ten times higher risk than normotensive women in developing moderate to severe chronic kidney disease. Interestingly hypertensive men are four times higher risk than normotensive male in developing end stage renal failure Obese men are three times higher risk than normal weight men in developing moderate to severe chronic kidney disease. Underweight females are three times at risk than normal weight females in developing moderate and severe chronic kidney disease. Summary: Qrisk questionaire is a quick and easy tool to assess risk of developing chronic kidney disease. Participants with diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease have a higher risk of developing moderate and severe chronic kidney disease over the next 5 years. Overweight (body mass index 25 to 29.99), obese patients (body mass index more than 30) and interestingly underweight females with body mass index 18.5 or less have a higher risk of developing moderate and severe chronic kidney disease.

Chronic kidney disease is a worldwide public health problem with an increasing incidence and prevalence. Outcomes of chronic kidney disease include not only complications of decreased kidney function and cardiovascular disease but also end stage renal failure causing increased morbidity and mortality. The development of acute but serious uremic complications in advanced kidney disease may put the patient's life at risk requiring immediate dialysis. The objective of this study was to find out the outcomes of urgent hemodialysis in advanced kidney disease, the minimum number of hemodialysis required for satisfactory clinical improvement, and to detect uremic emergencies associated with those patients. Twenty two patients with end stage renal failure admitted in a rural tertiary care private hospital of Bangladesh for emergency and short term dialysis were included in this study. For each patient hemodialysis was done at one day interval three times in a week in a dialysis unit. Results show that two sessions of hemodialysis produced 72 % and three sessions, almost 100% clinical recovery at satisfactory level. Urgent hemodialysis was found to be life saving in observed uremic emergencies like acute pulmonary edema, cerebral encephalopathy, metabolic acidosis, hyperkalemia, gross fluid overload and pericardial effusion. Dialysis therapy ameliorates many of the clinical manifestations of renal failure and postpones otherwise imminent death and for these logical reasons it is recommended that dialysis should not be delayed in uremic emergencies for the best interest of clinical outcomes.
