<p>Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an independent risk factor for cognitive impairment in all domains, especially delayed memory and executive function. The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between chronic kidney disease severity and cognitive function. This study used a cross-sectional design in stage III, IV, and V CKD patients in the Nephrology Polyclinic of Haji Adam Malik Central General Hospital. Cognitive function tests were performed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA INA), digit span, and Trail Making Test A &amp; B. The Spearman test was used to analyze the correlation between CKD severity and cognitive function. This study involved 45 chronic kidney disease patients consisting of 28 (62.2%) males and 17 (37.8%) females with a mean age of 49.67±12.18 years. The results of statistical analysis showed that there was a significant positive correlation between CKD on the MoCA-INA examination (r=0.618, p=&lt;0.001), FDS (r=0.414, p=0.005), there was a significant negative correlation on the TMT A time examination (r=-0.425, p=0.004), TMT A error (r=-0.497, p=0.001), TMT B time (r=-0.618, p=&lt;0.001), TMT B error (r=-0.370, p=0.012). The results of this study prove a significant correlation between the severity of CKD and cognitive function.</p>

The chronic kidney disease is a global health problem with increasing prevalence and incidence and a poor prognosis. Therefore, those brought about by risk factors are primarily those which can be modified and controlled for their occurrence.  One of the risk factor is smoking habit. The objective of this study was to determine the associations between smoking and renal function profiles in PT.X employees. The study was conducted by using descriptive analytical study with a cross sectional design based on smoking habits and blood test samples of employees. The sample were 40 employees in PT.X which determined by consecutive sampling. The results showed that there were no associations between smoking with age (p = 0.222) and azotemia (p = 1.00) but there were associations between smoking and blood creatinine levels (p = 0.001), urea (p = 0.023), eGFR (p. = 0.001), and the stages of chronic kidney disease (p = 0.047).  Based on the study results, in can be concluded that there were associations between smoking and renal function profiles among employees of PT. X

Although the relationship between protein-bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) and cardiac structure and cardiac mortality in chronic kidney disease (CKD) has been studied in the past, the association between cardiac dysfunction and PBUTs has not yet been studied. We therefore evaluated the association between impaired peak cardiac performance and the serum free and total concentrations of potentially cardiotoxic PBUTs. In a cross-sectional study of 56 male CKD patients (stages 2–5 (pre-dialysis)) who were asymptomatic with no known cardiac diseases or diabetes we measured peak cardiac power (CPOmax), aerobic exercise capacity (VO2max), and echocardiographic parameters of cardiac morphology and evaluated their association with PBUTs. The serum total and free concentrations of indoxyl sulfate (IXS), p-cresyl sulfate (PCS), p-cresyl glucuronide, indole acetic acid, and hippuric acid showed significant negative correlation with CPOmax and VO2max. IXS and PCS were independently associated with CPOmax and VO2max even after controlling for eGFR. No correlation between left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and PBUTs was seen. The present study for the first time has demonstrated the association between subclinical cardiac dysfunction in CKD and serum levels of a panel of PBUTs. Further studies are required to evaluate the mechanism of cardiotoxicity of the individual uremic toxins.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects more than one third of older adults, and is a strong risk factor for vascular disease and cognitive impairment. Cognitive impairment can have detrimental effects on the quality of life through decreased treatment adherence and poor nutrition and results in increased costs of care and early mortality. Though widely studied in hemodialysis populations, little is known about cognitive impairment in patients with pre-dialysis CKD. Methods: Multicenter, cross-sectional, prospective cohort study including 385 patients with CKD stages G4-G5. Cognitive function was measured with a validated tool called the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) as part of a comprehensive frailty assessment in the Canadian Frailty Observation and Interventions Trial. Cognitive impairment was defined as a MoCA score of ≤24. We determined the prevalence and risk factors for cognitive impairment in patients with CKD stages G4-G5, not on dialysis. Results: Two hundred and thirty seven participants (61%) with CKD stages G4-G5 had cognitive impairment at baseline assessment. When compared to a control group, this population scored lower in all domains of cognition, with the most pronounced deficits observed in recall, attention, and visual/executive function (p < 0.01 for all comparisons). Older age, recent history of falls and history of stroke were independently associated with cognitive impairment. Conclusions: Our study uncovered a high rate of unrecognized cognitive impairment in an advanced CKD population. This impairment is global, affecting all aspects of cognition and is likely vascular in nature. The longitudinal trajectory of cognitive function and its effect on dialysis decision-making and outcomes deserves further study.

Chronic kidney disease is a worldwide public health problem. In Nepal, Chronic kidney disease patients are increasing and the management of this disease is very expensive compared to other chronic diseases? We assessed the socioeconomic status of chronic kidney disease patients registered in National Kidney Centre, Banasthali, Kathmandu. The study used descriptive cross sectional design. Ninety six samples were collected between 15- 31 October, 2012.The mean age of the patients was 47 years, with almost half of the patients (46%) from 41-60 years age group. Among the patients, 65 % were male, 85% were married, 80% were literate, 57% were past smoker and 75% were drinker and 59% were from Kathmandu valley. Likewise, most of them were Newar, work as housewife as the main occupation. One third (37%) had to sell their property for the treatment. On an average patient spent Rs.240000 per year in dialysis. Similarly, medication cost was Rs.180000 and transplantation cost was Rs.500000 to 1000000. Preventive measures of the disease and subsidy in the treatment will be beneficial for the needy people. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jmmihs.v1i4.11997Journal of Manmohan Memorial Institute of Health Sciences Vol. 1, Issue 4, 2015Page : 19-23

Hemodialysis therapy of patients with chronic kidney disease can changes the patients physically, psychological, social and economics because they have to deal with it for the rest of their life. This can affect the quality of life of the patients because of the long-term of hemodialysis therapy, this is one of the factors that affect the quality of life of the patients with chronic kidney disease. Quality of life is focused on the assessment of the individual against conditions acceptance. Each individual takes different phases to accept the condition. The purposes of the study were to determine if the relationship between the duration of hemodialysis and quality of life of the patients with chronic kidney disease at Gatoel Hospital Mojokerto. This research used cross-sectional design. The patient's population with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis is 150 people. The research sample is drawn using sampling techniques with the type of nonprobability purposive sampling with 130 people as a sample. Data obtained from questionnaires KDQoL 36. The result using Spearman rho test using SPSS V.16 shows p < α (0,006 < 0,05). H0 rejected, this means that there is a relationship between the duration of hemodialysis and quality of life with chronic kidney disease at Gatoel Hospital Mojokerto. The quality of life of the patients fluctuated based on the stage adaptation of the hemodialysis and disease. However, most patients with the duration of hemodialysis for more than 12 months had a sufficient quality of life and their therapy are already familiar with the symptoms and complications, but there are other factors that affect the quality of life such as gender, marital status, and education level. Patients are also expected to cooperate in what to do and not to do to improve the quality of life of the patients.
