Analysis of the world literature shows that sexual dysfunction is a common problem in patients with chronic kidney disease, both men and women, and this problem for known reasons has not received proper recognition and attention among health professionals and organizers. The prevalence of erectile dysfunction among men with chronic kidney failure ranges from 70 to 86 %. Sexual disorders are associated with uremic effects, comorbidities, anemia, hormonal disorders, autonomic neuropathy, vascular disorders, hyperparathyroidism, hyperprolactinemia, drug side effects, and psychosocial factors. Erectile dysfunction has a serious impact on the quality of life and this strongly affects the social and family life of affected patients. Sexual dysfunction is more common in men and women with chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease. Patients on hemodialysis have better sexual function than those without it. Sexual dysfunction has a negative impact on the quality of life of patients with chronic kidney disease and therefore they need high-quality therapy, taking into account the stage, desire and ability of patients.

Sexual dysfunction is a common complication among male patients with chronic kidney disease. Common disturbances include erectile dysfunction, decreased libido, and infertility. Sexual dysfunction is a multifactorial problem, and the treatment options are limited, it associated with lower quality of life scores in patients. Chronic kidney disease also has a critically impairing effect on the quality of life. To investigate the efficacy of bupropion on sexual dysfunction and quality of life in men with chronic kidney disease, a single-blind placebo-controlled trial was conducted. A total of 40 male patients with chronic kidney disease suffering from erectile dysfunction (Mean age 41/25±8/8) were randomly assigned to receive 10 weeks of treatment with either bupropion or placebo. Sexual function and quality of life were assessed by IIEF5 and WHOQOL-BREF questionnaires, respectively. Baseline demographic and clinical features were similar in both groups. The results showed a significant difference between the intervention and control groups in sexual function (P=0/005) and total quality of life (P=0/001); also the difference was significant in physical health (P=0/012), psychological health (P<0/001) and social relationship (P<0/001) domains. Our findings suggest that Bupropion is effective and safe for treating sexual dysfunction in men with chronic kidney disease and also could positively affect the quality of life among the patients. © 2019 Tehran University of Medical Sciences.

The aim: To systematize and bring the reader closer to knowledge about the occurrence of sexual disorders in people after heart transplantation based on available bibliography. Material and methods: A review of the literature on this topic from the last 30 years made with using the PubMed database, using a total of 17 articles. Conclusions: The incidence of sexual dysfunction (SD) is higher in heart recipients than in the general population and erectile dysfunction is the most common. When the symptoms of dysfunction occur before the transplant – they do not improve, rather they get worse, which reduces the improvement in the quality of life of these patients compared to patients without sexual dysfunction. Improvement in quality of life is observed in patients with SD after heart transplantation, but not as pronounced as in subjects without sexual dysfunction. Some patients notice an increase in libido, with the genital response being insufficient or completely disappearing, which results in a decrease in the quality of relationships between partners and a deterioration in the quality of life. The cause of SD in heart recipients is unclear, but it is associated with the type of immunosuppression used, the level of sexual activity and the state of health of patients prior to transplantation. Nowadays patients after ortotrophic heart transplant live longer and their quality of life improves, but not in sexual terms. The articles concerned almost exclusively men, that is why the topic requires exploration in subsequent research.

Abstract Background and Aims Patients with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis (HD) treatment have a health-related quality of life (HRQoL) lower than the reference values of the Spanish population. Previous studies have shown through music therapy reduce levels of pain, anxiety and depression in chronic kidney disease patients on hemodialysis. This study presents an intervention with classical music performed live during HD sessions. It is the first time to study the effect of classical music heard live on HRQL. Method Randomized clinical trial by groups. 90 patients agreed to participate. They were randomized into an intervention group (IG) and a control group (CG). The IG listened to 30/45 minutes of live classical music in two of the three weekly HD sessions for 1 month. The CG followed his usual treatment. Different individual scales of the quality of life test in kidney diseases (KDQOL-SF) were analyzed, in two times, baseline (Start) and after (End) the musical intervention in both groups. The analysis was performed using a mixed linear regression model for repeated measures with independent variables (age, sex, months in HD, Kt/v, Hemoglobin (Hb)) and dependent variables (individual KDQOL-SF scale scores). Results The CG sample included 43 patients with a mean age of 75.8 years; 22 women (51%); mean Kt/v 1.53; mean Hb 11.5 and mean time on HD 60.46 months. The GI sample included 47 patients with a mean age of 73.53 years; 18 women (38%); mean Kt/v 1.47; mean Hb 11.3 and mean time on HD 63.34 months. The results show that after the intervention, IG vs CG increased the mean score (pm) in all the scales significantly. The End time and GI interaction showed a mean score increase of 15.78 (p &lt;0.001) for the Symptoms/problems scale; 14.96 (p &lt;0.001) scale Effects of kidney disease; 16.36 (p &lt;0.001) on the Kidney disease burden scale; 14.78 (p &lt;0.001) on the Sleep scale; 25.46 (p &lt;0.001) on the Vitality scale; 29.57 (p &lt;0.001) on the Emotional well-being scale; 41.92 (p &lt;0.001) on the Pain scale and 23.39 (p &lt;0.001) on the General Health scale. Conclusion Live classical music intervention during hemodialysis sessions improves self-perceived HRQL in patients with chronic kidney disease on HD

Background: The quality of life is an important assessment tool in improving the quality of care among chronic kidney diseases (CKD) especially in a palliative care setup. This study attempted to assess the quality of life of chronic kidney disease patients.Methods: This community based cross sectional study was conducted among 140 patients who were registered at palliative clinics in Malappuram District, Kerala using a standard tool for quality of life (QOL) in Malayalam version. Domain scores were analysed across clinic epidemiological factors.Results: Mean age of the study population was 53.99 (14.36%). Majority 73 (52.1%) were educated up to upper primary. The median duration of CKD was 4 years and ranged from 3 months to 22 years. 55.3% were undergoing dialysis 16.3% had renal transplantation. Hypertension was reported by 65% and diabetes by 50.7%. The highest score was obtained in the environmental and lowest in the psychological domain. Age below 40 years, male gender and provision of an income was associated with better QOL scores and perception scores. QOL was significantly higher in all domains among those who had undergone renal transplantation compared to those on hemodialysis.  Conclusions: The status of renal transplantation and younger age group positively affected the good quality of life. Considering the cost of renal transplantation and post-transplant survival peritoneal dialysis could be promoted in low resource settings. Secondary prevention of hypertension and diabetes should be addressed at programme level to delay nephropathy.

The pandemic of chronic non-communicable diseases, which claimed millions of lives each year, was a global challenge to modern health care worldwide, with not only medical but also great socio-economic significance, resulting in severe complications related to disability and the need for high treatment costs. Among them, kidney diseases occupy an important place due to the high prevalence, mortality, and sharp decline in the quality of life of patients. According to leading population registers (NHANTS III, Okinawa Stady), the prevalence of chronic kidney disease is at least 10%, reaching more than 20% in individual categories of individuals. Screening and identification of risk factors are inseparable from primary prevention of chronic kidney disease. Primary prevention is based on dispensary observation of patients of risk groups with subsequent development of individual medical recommendations for control of modified risk factors and control over their implementation. The use of innovative technologies of replacement renal therapy allows to achieve a higher degree of correction of anemia, nutritive status, social rehabilitation and quality of life of patients with terminal chronic renal failure. One promising direction is an integrated approach to replacement renal therapy, in which peritoneal dialysis is given the role of first-line therapy. The main activities for the provision of dialysis care for patients with chronic kidney disease are the development of a priority program for the provision of replacement renal therapy with a view to guaranteeing financial support, the development and implementation of a standard of dialysis care at the State level, the determination of a single cost of dialysis therapy, the application of tenders for the provision of medical services for dialysis, and support for the development of public and private dialysis centers.
