Background: The stiffness of the large elastic arteries increase the morbidity and mortality. The purpose of the present study was to estimate the risk of aortic stiffness among end stage renal disease patients on maintenance haemodialysis. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in the Department of Nephrology at National Institute of Kidney Diseases and Urology (NIKDU), Dhaka and National Institute of Cardiovascular Disease and Hospital (NICVD), Dhaka, Bangladesh from January 2013 to December 2014 for a period of two years. Chronic kidney disease in stage 5 [CKD-5(D)] patients older than 18 years on maintenance haemodialysis (MHD) for more than 3 months were designated as case group and age and sex matched non CKD patients were considered as control group. Serum calcium, serum albumin, serum phosphate and iPTH were estimated by semi-automated biochemistry analyzer from the Department of Biochemistry of NIKDU, Dhaka and NICVD, Dhaka. Plain Xray abdomen in lateral view was performed for all patients. Result: A total number of 100 patients were enrolled for this study of which 50 patients were in end stage renal disease (ESRD) group and the rest 50 patients were in non-CKD group. Mean (±SD) aortic stiffness index was significantly higher (P<0.001) among ESRD population (3.27±1.70) compared to non CKD group of population (2.00±0.73). Mean (±SD) serum calcium (corrected) level was significantly high (P<0.001) in ESRD patients (9.79±0.87) compared to non CKD group of population (9.13±0.70). Mean (±SD) serum phosphate level was significantly higher (P<0.001) in ESRD patients (5.71±0.96) compared to non CKD group of population (4.20±0.59). However, mean (±SD) iPTH level showed no significant difference between ESRD (25.33±51.98) and non CKD group of population (38.53±19.52). Conclusion: In conclusion, aortic stiffness is significantly higher among ESRD subjects. Birdem Med J 2019; 9(1): 59-62

OBJECTIVE: To determine cut off value of procalciton (PCT) in aseptic end stage renal disease patients undergoing haemodialysis. BACKGROUND: Haemodialysisis considered as a proinflammatory state and therefore associated with release of inflammatory cytokines and acute phase reactant proteins. The conventional laboratory markers (C-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate) are efficient tools for the diagnosis of infection in patients with normal kidney functions. However they can be nonspecifically elevated in patients on haemodialysis and only reflect inflammatory response not associated with infection. PCT is considered a very important biomarker in differentiating infections from inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate normal serum levels of PCT in patients undergoing HD.PATIENTS AND METHOD: The study included 82 end-stage renal failure patients without evidence of systemic or localized infection undergoing maintenance haemodialysis. RESULTS: In our study, the PCT concentrations showed a mean of .622ng/ml in patients on maintenance hemodialysis without signs of infection. CONCLUSION:The study suggests that serum PCT at a cutoff value of .62ng/ml should be considered normal in aseptic haemodialysis patients. KEYWORDS: Procalcitonin, haemodialysis, sepsis

Background: The stiffness of the large elastic arteries increase the morbidity and mortality. Objective: The purpose of the present study was to estimate the risk of aortic stiffness among end stage renal disease patients under maintenance haemodialysis. Methodology: This case-control study was carried out in the Department of Nephrology at National Institute of Kidney Diseases and Urology (NIKDU), Dhaka and National Institute of Cardiovascular Disease and Hospital (NICVD), Dhaka, Bangladesh from January 2013 to December 2014 for a period of two (02) years.

Objective: To evaluate parathyroid hormone (PTH) status among end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients on maintenance haemodialysis (MHD). Methodology: This descriptive cross-sectional study was done in the Department of Nephrology, BIRDEM General Hospital, Dhaka, from April to September 2011. Results: A total of 50 patients were included in this study with a 3:2 male predominance. Mean age was 54.6 (range 34-76) years. Mean duration of ESRD was 3.73 years. All the patients were diabetic and other common co-morbidities were hypertension (76%), dyslipidaemia (56%), ischaemic heart disease (48%) and stroke (12%). They were receiving calcium (72%), vitamin D (40%), both calcium and vitamin D (38%) supplementation and 20% were not on any medication for treatment of chronic kidney disease mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD). Mean pre-dialysis values of urea and creatinine were 30.28 mg/dl and 8.67 mg/dl respectively. Mean (± SD) serum level of calcium, phosphate and PTH were 8.32 (±1.26) mg/dl, 4.42 (±1.54) mg/dl and 125.45±117.71 pg/ml respectively. In 76% of the study subjects, PTH level was above normal. Significant difference (P=<0.05) in PTH levels was observed among patients with and without any medication for prevention of CKD-MBD but the levels were within the acceptable range. Serum calcium level in the study subjects had significant positive relationship with serum PTH level. It was also observed that PTH level had significant negative relationship with phosphate level. Conclusion: PTH level was higher in ESRD patients on MHD specially those who were not on any medication than those who took calcium, vitamin D or both but it was still within the acceptable reference range. In such patients, serum calcium, phosphate and PTH levels should be monitored periodically. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/birdem.v4i1.18547 Birdem Med J 2014; 4(1): 13-17
