Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is perhaps the most pervasive entanglements of diabetes, and patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD) have a considerably higher danger of cardiovascular disease and demise contrasted with their non-diabetic CKD partners. Notwithstanding pharmacologic management procedures, nutritional and dietary mediations in DKD are a fundamental part of the board with the potential for enhancing kidney function decay and forestalling the improvement of opposite of other end-organ complications. In this study we detailed a patient having CKD and observed all require parameter in dietary management. Initial days, the patients Hb level was below normal, so, he was suggested iron-rich foods like beetroot, turnip, and carrot, raw banana in stewed form or in curry form. Also, in later, as the urea and creatinine content of the patient was too high from the normal patient, he was restricted from consuming protein-rich foods. On the day of discharge, all his reports were up to mark except urea and creatinine, as he was renal patient. Although nutrition intervention for DKD does require calculation of macro- and micronutrient and electrolyte requirements, a growing body of evidence suggests that specific dietary patterns of intake may confer additional therapeutic benefit.

Iron Profile

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: Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is one of the less recognized complications in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The prevalence of SHPT in various stages of CKD was evaluated by measuring the levels of intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH).Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in 100 CKD patients. Serum creatinine, calcium, phosphorous and iPTH levels were measured and statistical analysis was carried out using the SPSS software (IBM, NY, USA).Results: Among the 100 participants, the mean age (SD) was 59.3 (7.8) years. In our study population, 52% were men and the rest were females. Hypertension (75%) was the most common chronic morbidity. Prevalence of hyperparathyroidism among chronic kidney disease patients was 22% (95% CI: 14.7-30.9%). The prevalence of secondary hyperparathyroidism among dialysis and non-dialysis patients were 30% and 14% respectively which was statistically significant.Conclusions: SHPT is an important complication which is often underdiagnosed. Secondary hyperparathyroidism starts to develop when eGFR falls below 60ml/min. PTH levels starts to rise as the disease progress. Hence it is important for the treating physicians to monitor the PTH levels early in the course of CKD to prevent and treat bone mineral disease.

Objective: Efforts can be made to normalize the hematological parameters and slow the progress of the disease so that the morbidity and mortality in these patients with chronic kidney disease could be effectively reduced. Methods: The observational study was carried out in the Department of General Medicine, Pandit Raghunath Murmu Medical College Hospital, Baripada, between May 2018 and January 2019. Two hundred seventy patients of chronic kidney disease (CKD) above 15 years of age, satisfying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, were included in the study. Results: In our study, 179 (66.30%) were male, and 91 (33.70%) were female with M:F of 1.97:1. The average age of the patients in the study was 55.72±12.77 years. About 42.59 % (115) of the patients were between 46 and 60 years of age. About 35.56% of CKD cases had determined etiology and, 64.44% of cases had unknown etiology. Hemoglobin, RBC, and packed cell volume were significantly lower in the patients with CKD compared to the controls (p=0.0001), and RDW was considerably higher in the patients with CKD compared to the controls (p=0.0001). Microcytic anemia was the most prevalent type of anemia. There was a hugely significant association between the prevalence of thrombocytopenia and the severity of CKD (p=0.006). Conclusion: This study concluded that patients with CKD show abnormal hematological parameters. Evaluation of hematological parameters in these patients helps in classifying the type of anemia, aids in choosing the correct treatment modalities, and decreases mortality.

Background: Around 10% populations worldwide develop chronic kidney disease and two million people require frequent dialysis due to it1. Cardiovascular diseases related complications are more common in chronic kidney patients and responsible for greater morbidity and mortality. This study is designed to determine the peripheral artery disease in patients with chronic kidney disease in our clinical setup and risk factor associated with them.Methods: In present study 140 patients with chronic kidney disease were enrolled for this study. Demographic profile of each patient was recorded. Detailed history of patients regarding claudication was taken. Ankle-brachial index was calculated in each patient with CKD for diagnosis of PAD based on American heart association guideline.Results: There was male predominance. History of smocking was present in 80 (57.14%) patients and absent in 60 (42.85%) patients. Symptom of PAD was present in 28 (20%) patients and absent in 114(80%) patients. Ankle-Brachial Index was positive in 38(27.14%) patients and absent in 102 (72.85%) patients. 80 (57.14%) patients were in stage 3 and 24 (17.14%) patients were in stage 4. Diabetes mellitus was present in 26 (18.57%) patients, Hypertension was present in 64 (45.71%), IHD was present in 22 (15.71%) remaining have no risk factor.Conclusions: From present study we can conclude that PAD was common in CKD patients more than 50 years of age and here is male predominance. It is more common in smoker and in most of the patients it was asymptomatic. Prevalence of PAD was 27.14% in CKD patients. In our study PAD was more common in stage 3 CKD and least common in stage 2, and cardiovascular risk factor was more common in PAD patients then CKD in general.

Background: Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) is common and higher in prevalence in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). To find out the frequency and clinicobacteriological pattern of UTI in CKD patients. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was done on 1000 of CKD patients attending Nephrology Department of Chattogram Medical College Hospital (CMCH) a tertiary level hospital in Bangladesh during January to December, 2017. Cleancatch midstream urine samples were collected from study populations irrespective of symptoms. Macroscopic and microscopic examinations were done. Urine samples were then inoculated in Blood agar and Mac’Conkey agar and incubated aerobically at 37 °C for 18-24 hours. Microscopic observations and conventional biochemical tests were done to identify the isolated organisms. Significant growth of organisms in urine was defined as UTI. The isolated organisms were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility by using modified Kirby Bauer technique. Results: The prevalence of UTI was 61.8%. with significant asymptomatic UTI for 28%. Gram-negative organisms were most frequent 564 (93%) with predominant Escherichia coli 399 (64%) followed by Klebsiella 113(18%) and Pseudomonas 39(6%). Among Gram positive isolates, Staphylococcus (6%) was the dominant organism isolated. Regarding antibiotic susceptibility, Gram-negative microorganisms were found to be most sensitive to carbapenem and amikacin whereas Gram-positive microorganisms were most sensitive towards carbapenem, colistin and linezolid. Conclusion: In CKD patients, asymptomatic UTI was detected significantly. E.coli was found to be predominant organisms and resistant towards most of the studied common antibiotics.

Prevalence Of Depression

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients are at high risk of depressive disorders because of considerable psychological stress due to physical and social changes brought on by disease. The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of depression in patients with CKD and the factors affecting it at a public tertiary care hospital. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out at the renal clinic of a tertiary care hospital. Data on 629 patients diagnosed with CKD from September 2014 to April 2016 was obtained. Nine-item Patient Health Questionnaire from PRIME-MD was used to assess the depression. Results: Of all the patients, 44.7% had depression. Mild depression was found to affect 28.9% of the patients followed by moderate depression and severe depression (15.4% and 0.4%, respectively). According to multiple logistic regression, the occurrence of depression was significantly higher with age below 60 years [odds ratio (OR) 1.5, 0.9–2.7; P<0.05], male gender (OR 1.4, 1.0–3.1; P<0.05), no treatment funding (OR 2.7, 1.3–4.6; P<0.05), education less than grade 12 (OR 1.3, 1.3–3.2; P<0.05), monthly income ≤INR 20,000 (OR 1.6, 1.1–3.6; P<0.05), CKD stage V (OR 1.4 1.0– 2.9; P <0.05), Patients on hemodialysis (HD) (OR 2.5, 1.2–4.5; P<0.05), comorbidities ≥3 (OR 1.6, 1.3–3.0; P<0.05), overweight (OR 2.4, 1.3–2.9; P<0.05), and duration of CKD >2 (OR 2.4, 1.4–4.4; P<0.05). Conclusion: About 44.7% of the patients were found to have depression. Patients’ age, gender, body mass index, treatment funding, education status, income, CKD duration and stage, HD status, and comorbidities were found to be significant factors affecting depression.

Background: Prescribing drugs for any disease is not complete until it is rationally done. Irrational prescriptions often lead to treatment failure, toxicity or drug interactions which may prove detrimental to the patient. Antibiotics are very much prescribed in day to day practice but their rational use prevents treatment failure, resistance.Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital to see the antibiotic prescribing pattern. Prescriptions were screened one time from different OPDs with prior permission from the doctor attending the respective OPD.Results: A total of 200 prescriptions were assessed out of which 121 had monotherapies prescribed, 79 had FDCs. Antibiotics were the most commonly prescribed drugs. Prescriptions having drug combinations were assessed and pantoprazole domperidone was the most commonly prescribed (32.91%).Conclusions: Drugs should be prescribed rationally for proper therapeutic benefit. It encourages the patient to properly use the medicine and properly comply to it.
