Abstract Background and Aims Chronic kidney disease is a frequent condition, characterized, especially in its more advanced stages, by an array of derangements in bone structure and density, resulting in a higher rate of bone fractures. Current strategies to monitor the bone status and assess the risk of bone fractures in CKD patients are limited. The Bone Elastic Structure (BES) test is a recently-developed non-invasive tool that measures the elastic characteristics of the trabecular bone by simulating the application of loads on a virtual biopsy obtained from radiographic images of the proximal epiphyses in the patient’s hand fingers. The simulation results are combined to obtain a parameter defined Bone Structure Index (BSI). The aim of our study is to explore whether the BES test could be a useful monitoring tool of bone status in patients with CKD on dialysis by exploring whether such patients have different BSI values compared with persons without CKD. Method The BES test was performed on a sample of 41 patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis (HD) and the BSI compared with a group of 374 persons with normal renal function who had undergone the BES test in previous studies. Differences in BSI and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) between the two groups were obtained and tested for statistical significance with a linear regression model including BSI as the dependent variable and kidney status (HD vs no HD) as the independent variable, adjusted for age and sex. Subgroup effects were explored by including interaction terms (age x kidney status, age x sex, kidney status x sex) in the model. Finally, to further remove the potential confounding by age and sex, each HD patient was individually matched with up to 4 non-HD participants based on sex and age (with a 5-year caliper) and a matched analysis was conducted on BSI values. Results Average (SD) age was 64 (17) years in the HD group and 60 (12) years in the non-HD group, with a prevalence of males of 49% and 16%, respectively. The individual values of BSI divided by kidney status and sex in Figure. The multivariate linear regression model showed that, after adjustment for age and sex, the BSI in the HD group was significantly lower compared with the non-HD group (HD 145, 95% CI 140, 154; non-HD 179, 95% CI 177, 181; absolute difference −32, 95% CI −40, −25; p-value < 0.001). There was no significant interaction between age, sex and kidney status on BSI values (all p-values > 0.05). Individual matching was successful for 36 out of 41 HD patients, who were matched to 127 non-HD participants; matched analysis confirmed the results (absolute difference −31, 95% CI −40, −23; p-value < 0.001). Conclusion The output of a non-invasive tool to determine the bone elastic structure appeared to be strongly associated with kidney function after control for differences in age and sex. Further studies are needed to determine the potential application of the BES test in patients with CKD.

Background: Dyslipidemia is very much common in chronic kidney disease patients and is responsible for cardiovascular disease (CKD) which is most common cause of mortality in them. So, it is necessary to study the lipid prole in CKD patients to prevent morbidity and mortality. Methods: Subjects each of 50 in number are grouped into healthy controls (group-1), CKD patients without hemodialysis (group-2), CKD patients with hemodialysis (group-3). After fasting of 12 hours, lipid prole is assessed in all cases. Results: In this study, there is increase in Total cholesterol (TC), Low Density lipoprotein (LDL), very Low-Density lipoprotein (VLDL) and Triglycerides (TG) and decrease in High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) in all CKD patients compared to healthy controls (p-value for each parameter <0.001). There is increase in TC, TG and VLDL in diabetic CKD patients compare to non-diabetic CKD patients and p-value for each parameter is <0.05. It was found that TG and VLDL increase and HDL decrease in group-3 compare to group-2 is statistically signicant (p-value for each <0.05) and no signicant variation in TC and LDL in these groups. Conclusions: Present study demonstrated that there is dyslipidemia in CKD patients irrespective of mode of management, but the derangement is much more common and signicant in CKD with hemodialysis group and they are at risk of cardiovascular disease. It is better to start lipid lowering drugs which decreases disease progression and dyslipidemia.

To investigate the association of body weight variability (BWV) with adverse cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in patient with pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD), a total of 1867 participants with pre-dialysis CKD from Korean Cohort Study for Outcomes in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease (KNOW-CKD) were analyzed. BWV was defined as the average absolute difference between successive values. The primary outcome was a composite of non-fatal CV events and all-cause mortality. Secondary outcomes were fatal and non-fatal CV events and all-cause mortality. High BWV was associated with increased risk of the composite outcome (adjusted hazard ratio (HR) 1.745, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.065 to 2.847) as well as fatal and non-fatal CV events (adjusted HR 1.845, 95% CI 1.136 to 2.996) and all-cause mortality (adjusted HR 1.861, 95% CI 1.101 to 3.145). High BWV was associated with increased risk of fatal and non-fatal CV events, even in subjects without significant body weight gain or loss during follow-up periods (adjusted HR 2.755, 95% CI 1.114 to 6.813). In conclusion, high BWV is associated with adverse CV outcomes in patients with pre-dialysis CKD.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined as a progressive disease that causes renal failure and requires extended and long-term therapies. CKD patients need to choose one of these therapies to improve their quality of life. This study aims to investigate differences in the quality of life of chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD).Design and Methods: The study design used is similar to the cross-sectional design. Therefore, in this study observations were carried out, a EQ_5D life quality questionnaire sheet was administered to respondents, and a purposive sampling method was used. The total number of respondents was 250 and consisted of 125 hemodialysis and CAPD patients each.Results: The results obtained using the Mann Whitney method was a p-value (0.515)> α (0.05). These results also included five components, namely the ability to move/walk to an acceptable degree, adequate self-care, performance of usual activities, minimal amount of pain/discomfort during hemodialysis and CAPD, and acceptable levels of anxiety/sadness.Conclusions: This research concludes that there is no difference in the quality of life between CKD patients  undergoing hemodialysis and CAPD.

Objective: To determine the effect of subcutaneous recombinant human erythropoietin on blood pressure in predialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Study Design: Case-series descriptive study. Place and Duration of Study: Combined Military Hospital Peshawar, from Mar 2016 to Sep 2016. Methodology: A total of 100 cases were enrolled. Inclusion criteria was patients of 18 to 60 years of both gender & estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) below 30 mL/min/1.73 m2 having Hb <10g/dL and pre-dialysis while Exclusion Criteria was pregnancy or lactation, BP more than 140/90 mmHg, patients on Haemodialysis and worsening renal function. Baseline BP, body weight and eGFR of anaemic chronic kidney disease patients were recorded prior to EPO Alpha therapy. Erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) i.e. EPO Alpha (50-100 Units/kg thrice or once weekly) was administered subcutaneously. Subsequent blood pressure, body weight and eGFR monitoring was done after 2 and 4 weeks post EPO Alpha injection. Results: Mean age range was 46.71 years with range of 20-60 years, 73 (73%) were male while 27 (27%) werefemales. Mean ± SD for other quantitative variables like eGFR was 23.12 ± 5.28, Hb levels (g/dL) was 8.62 ± 0.85,Weight (kg) was 56.66 ± 6.62 and duration of CKD was 9.87 ± 4.02. Frequency of Hypertension (post EPO) was 2(2%) and p-value was 0.453. Conclusion: We concluded that the frequency of hypertension in pre-dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) receiving recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPo) subcutaneously (SC) in low doses, is very low, so rhEPo can be used subcutaneously......................

Background: Various studies have shown the association between dyslipidemia and cardio-vascular risk among patients of chronic renal disease but the association non-significant than patients with normal renal function. There was lack of evidence exists because patients with chronic renal disease were excluded from the major clinical studies where the association with that target dyslipidemia treatment was being evaluated Material & Methods: The present prospective study was conducted among the patients of Chronic Kidney Disease above 18 years of age and diagnosed on the basis of history, detailed clinical examination, and biochemical and sonological examination based upon National Kidney Foundation (NKF) criteria were enrolled into the study. Clearance from hospital ethics committee was taken before start of study. Written informed consent was taken from each study participant. Results:  In the present study out of total study participants of chronic kidney disease 46% were in the 3rd stage of CKD, 38% were in the 4th stage of CKD and 16% were in the 5th stage of CKD. Out of total study participants of chronic kidney disease, 82% were managed by conservative treatment and 18% were being managed by hemodialysis. Out of total study participants of chronic kidney disease, 38% had normal lipid profile while 62% patients had dyslipidemia. We found statistically significant (p value < 0.05) association between dyslipidemia and hemodialysis and association between dyslipidemia and stages of chronic kidney disease was statistically non- significant (p value > 0.05). Conclusion:  We concluded from the present study that dyslipidemia is significantly associated as an additional risk factor in patients of Chronic Kidney Disease. We found significant association of hemodialysis with abnormal lipid profile. Key words: Chronic kidney disease, dyslipidemia, hemodialysis.

Background: Depression and other mental illness are very common among chronic kidney disease and also Quality of life has been found significantly impaired in chronic kidney disease. The objective of our study is to study Depression, Quality of life and its associations in chronic kidney disease. Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study. We used convenient method of sampling for data collection. The World Health Organization Quality-of-Life 8-question scale was used for estimating quality of life and Beck Depression Inventory  was used for the assessment of depression.  Independent samples t-test was conducted to analysed bivariate relationship of sociodemographic factors with depression and Quality of life scores and multiple linear regression analysis was performed to determine predictors of Quality of life. Results: The 75.5% participants found to have depression. Depression was found statistically significant across socioeconomic status (p value 0.04) and other medical comorbidities (p value 0.04). Variables found to be significantly associated with total quality of life in multiple linear regression analysis were caste (p value 0.03), socioeconomic status (p value 0.009) and depression (p value 0.001). Conclusions: Depression and reduced quality of life is very common among chronic kidney patients. Low socioeconomic status and comorbid medical conditions were associated with depression and caste, low socioeconomic status and depression were associated with low quality of life. Screening and management of depression should be included in the routine care and it could help improving the quality of life of patients with chronic kidney disease.
