Abstract Background: Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) maturation is one of the main concerns in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and finding a strategy for increasing success rate and accelerating fistula maturation is valuable. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of papaverine injection on AVF maturation and success rate. Method: This study was a randomized clinical trial that involved 110 patients with ESRD that were referred for AVF construction. Patients were allocated in papaverine group and control group with block randomization according to age and sex. In the case group, papaverine (0.1 or 0.2 cc) was injected locally within the subadventitia of artery and vein after proximal and distal control during AVF construction and in the control group, AVF construction was done routinely without papaverine injection. Results: Maturation time in case and control groups was 37.94 ± 11.49 and 44.23 ± 9.57 days, respectively (p=0.004). Hematoma was not seen in the case group but occurred in one patient in the control group. One patient of the case group developed venous hypertension. Four functional fistulas, 1 (1.8%) in the case group and 3 (5.5%) in the control group, failed to mature (p=0.618). Maturation rate did not differ between the two groups statistically (p=0.101). Conclusion: Local papaverine injection increased vessel diameter and blood flow, increasing shearing stress in both arterial and venous segment of recently created AVF. In this way, papaverine probably can decrease AVF maturation time without an increase in complications.

Aim: End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) is an important public health problem worldwide with an increasing incidence and prevalence. There are many environmental and genetic factors which contribute to the development of ESRD. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been suggested to play an important role in renal pathophysiology. The aim of this study was to determine the probable relation between ESRD and VEGF gene rs699947 polymorphism in Turkish population. Material and Method: Genotyping of rs699947 was carried out in 50 ESRD patients on dialysis treatment and 30 healthy controls, using a Kompetitive Allelic-Specific PCR (KASP) method following DNA isolation. Demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients were recorded. Results: The prevalance of rs699947 AA genotype was found to be higher in the control group, but it was not statistically significant (p>0.05) . Conclusion: Although statistically insignificant, the frequency of AA genotype was higher in the control group compared to the case group, therefore we concluded that AA genotype may be a protective factor for ESRD in Turkish population. However, this conclusion needs to be further verified by future studies performed in larger study groups.

Introduction: Patients with end stage renal disease require hemodialysis. Radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula is the main choice of vascular access in patients who undergo hemodialysis procedure. Physiological vein distensibility is an important aspect in forming a mature arteriovenous fistula. This study aims to analyze the correlation between preoperative distensibility and arteriovenous fistula maturation. Method: Data are collected from end stage renal disease patients in Hasan Sadikin Hospital and RA Habibie Hospitals that will go through radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula procedure during the period of October 2018 to February 2019. Vein distension procedure is performed before the operation and maturation is evaluated four to six weeks after the operation. The comparison of preoperative venous distensibility in two different groups of arteriovenous fistula maturation category is analyzed using chi square test model. Result: This study found that preoperative venous distensibility value affects arteriovenous fistula maturation with a statistical significance (p-value = 0.007), yielding a contingency coefficient of 0.553, and a very strong relation value of 0.782. Conclusion: Preoperative vein distensibility of more than 30% is predictive of successful arteriovenous maturation.

Background: Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is now the optimal method of obtaining vascular access for dialysis. Measures such as systemic anticoagulation have been proposed as means of increasing patency rates but enough evidence does not exist to support their application. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of preoperative heparin injection on patency of AVF during the first 24 hours after surgery and to determine whether such measure can be used to prevent early thrombosis of the vascular access.Methods: The study was carried out on 150 patients admitted to Shohada-e-Tajrish hospital for permanent vascular access placement during 2011-2012. 75 patients were randomly assigned to receive 100 units/kg of heparin intraoperatively and at 24 hours post-surgery AVF patency rate was assessed and compared to the control group. Results: All the 75 patients who had received heparin intraoperatively had a patent arteriovenous fistula 24 hours post-surgery which showed a statistically significant difference compared to the control group among which only 69 (92%) patients had a functioning AV fistula (p-value= 0.028).Conclusions: Our results show that systemic anticoagulation with heparin can be considered as an effective option in preventing vascular access failure. However, considering the contradictory data on the usefulness of heparin injection, larger trials are needed to evaluate efficacy and adverse effects of systemic intraoperative anticoagulation in End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients before qualifying it as a method of increasing AVF patency in these patients

This study aimed to analyze endocan levels as a marker of endothelial dysfunction in the control group, patients withstage I hypertension, stage II hypertension, and patients with end-stage renal disease. Endocan levels were measured withESM-1 (endocan) kit by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) method. This study used a cross-sectional methodand was conducted in Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital, Makassar and Hasanuddin University Hospital from Septemberto October 2017. There were 83 samples in this study, consisting of 12 samples in the control group, 22 samples of stage Ihypertension, 28 samples of stage II hypertension, and 21 samples of end-stage renal disease aged 20-90 years old. Thisstudy showed significantly higher endocan levels in patients with stage II hypertension and end-stage renal disease(p< 0.05). Endocan levels were significantly higher (p<0.05) in patients with end-stage renal disease compared with thecontrol group and patients with stage I hypertension; but not significantly higher (p > 0.05) compared to patients with stageII hypertension. Also, the median of endocan levels in patients with the end-stage renal disease was higher (309,850 ng/L)compared to patients with stage II hypertension (273,050 ng/L).

Abstract Background Nephropathy, a major complication of diabetes, is the leading cause of end-stage renal disease. Early identification of nephropathy in diabetes patients is crucial because it creates opportunity for preventing the incidence of DN and/or even slows down the process of end-stage renal disease attributed to diabetes. Human podocytes (Pods) have been demonstrated to be functionally and structurally injured in the natural history of diabetic nephropathy. Aim of the Work To evaluate the possible association between the urinary podocalyxin levels and severity and grade of diabetic nephropathy and to use urinary podocalyxin as a non-invasive marker for early stage of diabetic nephropathy in type 2 DM. Patients and Methods We collected 60 known clinically and biochemically type 2 diabetic patients.20 diabetic patients with no evidence of diabetic nephropathy, 20 patients diagnosed as diabetic nephropathy in microalbuminuria stages and 20 patients diagnosed as diabetic nephropathy in macroalbuminuria stages from Ain Shams University hospitals between April and December 2018 and 20 apparently healthy volunteers will included as a control group. Results Urinary PCX was significantly higher in patients group compared to control group. Urinary PCX was significantly higher in microalbuminuric group than in normoalbuminuric group and higher in macroalbuminuric group than in microalbuminuric group. There was a positive significant correlation between FBS, 2HrPP, HBA1C and urinary PCX. There was a positive significant correlation between s.create and urinary PCX. There was a positive significant correlation between ACR and urinary PCX. Conclusion Urinary podocalyxin seems to be beneficial as an early marker for early stages of diabetic nephropathy in type 2 DM patients.
