Background: In patients with CKD and diabetes combined, anemia may be relative or absolute. If the serum ferritin is more than or equal to 100ng/ml associated with reduced iron saturation, then it is defined as functional iron deficiency anemia. This type of anemia is very common in patients with CKD. To compare serum iron, TIBC, transferrin saturation and serum ferritin in anemia of chronic renal diseases with healthy controls.Methods: A hospital based comparative study was carried out among 30 known cases of chronic kidney disease with anemia. They were compared with 20 age and sex matched healthy control who were free from chronic kidney disease and anemia. The parameters like serum iron, TIBC, transferrin saturation and serum ferritin were compared between the two groups. Student’s t test and a two tailed p value were calculated and if the p value was less than 0.05, it was taken as statistically significant.Results: It was seen that the mean hemoglobin value was significantly less among CKD patients compared to healthy controls (p<0.05). Serum iron was also significantly less among CKD patients compared to healthy controls (p<0.05). TIBC as significantly high among CKD patients compared to healthy controls (p<0.05). This is because of low hemoglobin and low serum iron in CKD patients but again the transferrin saturation was significantly low among CKD patients compared to healthy controls (p<0.05).Conclusions: Anemia prevalence was very high in CKD patients. Hemoglobin, serum iron and transferrin saturation were significantly low and TIBC was significantly high.

Aim: To determine correlation of iron profile in children with different stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) presenting to tertiary care hospital. Methodology: A total of 81 children with chronic kidney disease stage having glomerular filtration rate (GFR) less than 90 (ml/min/m2) aged 1 – 14 years of either sex were included. Three ml serum sample was taken in vial by hospital duty doctor for serum ferritin level, serum iron, transferrin saturation and total iron binding capacity. The sample was sent to hospital laboratory for reporting. Iron profiling was done evaluating hemoglobin (g/dl), serum iron (ug/dl), serum ferritin (ng/ml), transferrin saturation (%) and total iron binding capacity (ug/dl) while iron load was defined as serum ferritin levels above 300 ng/ml. Correlation of iron profile with different stages of CKD was determined applying one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results: In a total 81 children, 46 (56.8%) were boys while overall mean age was 7.79±2.30 years. Mean duration on hemodialysis was 11.52 ± 9.97 months. Iron overload was observed in 26 (32.1%) children. Significant association of age above 7 years (p=0.031) and residential status as rural (p=0.017) was noted with iron overload whereas iron overload was increasing with increase in stages of CKD (p=0.002). Hemoglobin levels decreased significantly with increase in stages of CKD (p<0.001). Serum iron levels increased significantly with increase in the CKD stages (p=0.039). Serum ferritin levels were increasing significantly with the increase in CKD stages (p=0.031). Transferrin saturation also increased significant with increase in CKD stages (p=0.027). Conclusion: High frequency of iron overload was noted in children with CKD on maintenance hemodialysis and there was linear relationship with stages of CKD and iron overload. Significant correlation of hemoglobin, serum iron, serum ferritin and transferrin saturation was observed with different stages of CKD. Keywords: Iron overload, maintenance hemodialysis, ferritin level.

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.

The correlation of the length of time undergoing hemodialysis with the levels of hemoglobin, hematocrit, serum iron and total iron binding capacity in patients with chronic kidney disease at RSUD Prof. Dr. W. Z. Johannes Kupang. People with chronic kidney disease who are performing Hemodialysis suffer from anemia. Blood loss during the hemodialysis process is affected by frequent blood sampling for laboratory tests. To diagnose the occurrence of iron deficiency, anemia laboratory tests such as complete blood, serum iron (SI), TIBC, transferrin saturation, and serum ferritin can be conducted. The objective of this study is to determine the correlation between the length of undergoing Hemodialysis with the levels of Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, Serum Iron, and Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) in patients with chronic kidney disease in RSUD Prof. Dr.W. Z Johannes Kupang. This study employed an anon-reactive research design or unobtrusive research based on secondary data derived from medical record records at RSUD Prof. Dr.W. Johannes in August - September 2019 on 92 hemodialysis patients who met the inclusion criteria. The collected data were calculated with the SPSS application, while the correlation analysis between variables was performed by administering a linear regression analysis test. Ninety-two (92) respondents were obtained by employing the purposive sampling technique. The majority of patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing Hemodialysis were men (57.6%) with ages 39 - 59 years (63.0%), and the majority of patients undergoing Hemodialysis in patients with chronic kidney failure (CKD) were <12 months (41.3%). It was discovered that there was no relationship between the length of Hemodialysis with hemoglobin, hematocrit, serum iron, and total iron-binding capacity levels in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).

ABSTRACTBackground: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is kidney damage that occurred during the three months or more with a glomerular filtration rate less than 60 ml/men./1, 73 m2. One complication that often occurs in patients with CKD is anemia. Anemia in CKD can be caused by several factors such as EPO deficiency, Iron Deficiency, etc. and one of the parameters commonly examined in patients with CKD who are undergoing hemodialysis is composed of iron status Serum Iron(SI), TIBC, Transferrin Saturation, Ferritin.Objective: Looking iron status in CKD patientsMethods: The study design was a descriptive look at the medical records of the patients who are undergoing hemodialysis with purposive sampling technique.Results: In patients with CKD undergoing hemodialysis anemia. Anemia all experienced that often caused by the presence of erythropoietin deficiency. But there are also caused by iron deficiency from a status marked where the iron transferrin saturation <20%. There was also found an increase in ferritin> 400 ng / ml caused by the presence of an infection such as anemia or chronic disease can also be caused due to frequent blood transfusions. Treatment for iron overload in patients with CKD, especially regular hemodialysis patients who undergo repeated blood transfusions can be re-utilization by the use of ESA, anemia in CKD caused by deficiency erythropoietin.ESA therapy may also be given.Conclusion: Based on the results of research in the department of hemodialysis room Prof.Dr.RD Kandou obtained all patients with chronic kidney disease decreased hemoglobin, and Serum Iron which fell by 40%, the normal 60%, and ferritin were increased by 46.7% , that no data 53.3% and TIBC were decreased by 80%, as much as 20% of normal and Transferrin Saturation fell by 6.7%, which increased by 3.3% and as much as 90% of normal.Keywords: CKD, iron statusABSTRAKLatar Belakang : Penyakit Ginjal Kronik (PGK) adalah kerusakan ginjal yang terjadi selama atau lebih tiga bulan dengan laju filtrasi glomerulus kurang dari 60 ml/men./1,73 m2. Salah satu komplikasi yang sering terjadi pada pasien PGK adalah anemia. Anemia pada PGK dapat disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor seperti: Defisiensi EPO, Defisiensi Besi, dll dan salah satu parameter yang biasa diperiksa pada pasien PGK yang sedang menjalani hemodialisis adalah status besi yang terdiri dari Serum Iron (SI), TIBC, Saturasi Transferin, Feritin.Tujuan : Melihat Status besi pada pasien PGKMetode : Desain penelitian adalah deskriptif dengan melihat data rekam medik para pasien yang sedang menjalani hemodialisis dengan teknik purposive sampling.Hasil : Pada pasien PGK yang menjalani hemodialisis semuanya mengalami anemia.Anemia yang sering terjadi disebabkan oleh karena adanya defisiensi eritropoetin. Namun ada juga yang disebabkan oleh defisiensi besi yang ditandai dari pemeriksaan status besi dimana saturasi transferin < 20%. Ada juga didapatkan peningkatan Feritin > 400 ng/ml yang disebabkan oleh karena adanya infeksi seperti pada anemia penyakit kronis atau juga bisa disebabkan karena seringnya transfusi darah. Penatalaksanaan untuk kelebihan zat besi pada pasien PGK terutama pasien hemodialisis reguler yang mengalami transfusi darah berulang dapat dire-utilisasi dengan pemakaian ESA, anemia pada PGK yang disebabkan oleh dekfisiensi eritopoetin juga dapat diberikan terapi ESA.Kesimpulan : Berdasarkan hasil penelitian di ruangan hemodialisis di RSUP Prof.Dr.R.D Kandou didapatkan semua pasien penyakit ginjal kronik mengalami penurunan Hb,dan Serum Iron yang menurun sebanyak 40%, yang normal sebanyak 60%, dan Feritin yang meningkat sebanyak 46,7%, yang tidak ada data sebanyak 53,3% dan TIBC yang menurun sebanyak 80%, yang normal sebanyak 20% dan Saturasi Transferin yang menurun sebanyak 6,7% yang meningkat sebanyak 3,3% dan yang normal sebanyak 90%.Kata Kunci: PGK, Status Besi

BACKGROUND: Monitoring of iron status in chronic kidney disease patients is important, however inflammation may hinder its monitoring. Soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) is an alternative parameter to overcome this issue, whereas ferritin play a part in the inflammation process. Hence, the correlation between the sTfR ratio and the sTfR/log ferritin ratio with conventional iron status parameters in regular hemodialysis patients is necessary to be evaluated.METHODS: A cross-sectional was conducted in the current study. As many as 5 mL of blood (2 mL for sTfR and 3 mL for serum iron and ferritin levels) was collected. sTfR level was the blood-soluble transferrin receptor level measured by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The amount of ferritin and serum iron was determined using the immunochemiluminescent process. To evaluate the correlation, the Pearson correlation test was used.RESULTS: A total of 80 subjects was included in this study. The mean of hemoglobin was 10.25±1.66 g/dL, serum iron was 58.19±26.56 g/dL, and the median ferritin was 520.4 (49.9-3606) ng/mL. The sTfR was significantly associated only with serum iron levels with a correlation coefficient of r=-0.242; p=0.031. The sTfR/log ferritin was significantly associated with serum iron l evels (InSI)(r=-0.255, p=0.022); and transferrin saturation (r=-0.295; p=0.008).CONCLUSION: sTfR/log ferritin has a negative and significant correlation with serum iron levels and transferrin saturation, while sTfR negatively correlated with serum iron levels. sTfR and sTfR/log ferritin may be considered as an alternative iron marker in inflammation setting such as CKD.KEYWORDS: sTfR/log ferritin, iron status, serum iron, ferritin, chronic kidney disease, hemodialysis

This observational study was done on 52 cases of predialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with chronic anaemia. The aim of the study was to determine the tissue iron status, comparison of the tissue iron with serum iron profile and justification of giving iron in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients on the basis of serum iron profile. Bone marrow iron stain was done in each case and compared with the serum iron profile. The mean age of the patients was 46.8 ± 12.6 years and the mean haemoglobin and serum creatinine levels of the study population were 9.36 ± 2.13 gm/dl and 8.0 ± 4.2 mg/dl respectively. Stainable iron deposits were present in 40 (77%) cases. The mean serum ferritin and transferin saturation (TSAT) of the 52 cases were found to be 412.9 ng/ml and 28.3% and that for the 12 iron deficient cases were 101.8 ng/ml and 23.8%. Over all normal (>100ng/ml <500ng/ml), increased (>500ng/ml) or low (>100 ng/ml) serum ferritin was found in 28 and 15 and nine cases respectively. On the other hand, normal (>20% >50%) and low (>20%) TSAT were found in 31 and 12 cases, and high TSAT (>50%) in only nine cases. Out of the 12 cases having no evidence of stainable iron in the marrow low serum ferritin and low TSAT were found in eight (66.6%) and six (50%) cases, and high TSAT and either normal or high serum ferritin in six (50%) & four (33.3%) cases respectively. Low TSAT was also found in six (15%) cases of those having iron deposits in the marrow. It is, therefore, concluded that absence of stainable iron in the bone marrow is a better evidence of iron depletion than the serum iron profile and that serum ferritin and TSAT correlate less well with the bone marrow iron status in patient with chronic kidney disease.
