 Residual kidney function (RKF) is a powerful indicator of residual renal functional capacity that eliminates uremic toxins and fluid in hemodialysis patients. The purpose of our study was to investigate the influence of hydrating status on residual renal function in patients with CKD 5HD. Methods. A prospective observational study included 60 hemodialysis patients with CKD VD. All patients were examined - taken general and biochemical blood tests, determined the level of urea and creatinine in the daily urine. RKF was evaluated by urine volume, residual KT / V and KRU. Water balance was measured and evaluated using BCM-monitor. Results.During the analysis of BCM data, hyperhydration (OH / ECW above 15%) was revealed in 15 among all patients included in the study, which amounted to 25%. A statistically significant difference between patients who were hyperhydrated and normohydrated was found in relative (OH / ECW) and absolute hydration (OH), ECW, and ultrafiltration rates. Thus, in the group of hyperhydrated patients, the average relative hydration rate was 14.3% lower compared to normohydrated patients (p < 0.001) and absolute hydration by 2.6 l (p < 0.001). In further analysis, no significant difference between two groups was found in the indicators characterizing the RKF, namely, between the level of urine output, KRU, KT / Vren. The level of ultrafiltration in the group with normal hydration is 900 ml lower than that with hyperhydration (p < 0.005). In study the influence of indicators of hydration status such as OH, OH / ECW, TBW, ECW, ICW on RKF indices no reliable correlation of the above mentioned values ​​with diuresis, KRU, KT / Vren (p > 0.05) was found. A positive correlation was found between KRU, diuresis and KT / Vren, indicating that with increasing diuresis the KRU value and KT / Vren increase (p < 0.001). The same relationship was found between diuresis and KT / Vren, p < 0.001. An analysis of the relationship between absolute and relative hydration with dialysis efficacy (eKT / V) revealed that dialysis efficacy decreases with increase of hydratation in CKD 5HD patients (p < 0.05). Conclusions. The results obtained in our study indicate that the indicators of hydration status at baseline do not allow to find out an influence of them on the baseline level of RKF (diuresis, KRU and KT / Vren) in patients with CKD 5HD. Issues of the influence of hydration status on changes in RKF during the observation will be addressed in the following reports.

Background: This study analysed children with end-stage renal disease treated with automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) in our centre to explore the risk factors associated with residual renal function (RRF) loss. Methods: Children treated with APD as the initial renal replacement therapy regimen from January 2008 to December 2016 were included. All the children had a daily urine volume of ≥100 ml/m2 when APD was initiated and a dialysis follow-up time of ≥12 months. A daily urine volume of <100 ml/m2 after 12 months of APD treatment was defined as loss of RRF. Possible risk factors that may be associated with RRF loss were analysed. Results: A total of 66 children were included in the study. After 12 months of APD treatment, the daily urine volume decreased by 377.45 ± 348.80 ml/m2, the residual glomerular filtration rate decreased by 6.39 ± 3.69 ml/min/1.73 m2 and 29 of the patients (43.9%) developed RRF loss. The higher risk of RRF loss after 1 year of APD treatment was most pronounced in patients with daily urine volume of ≤400 ml/m2 before treatment, higher glucose exposure and higher ultrafiltration volume, while the lower risk of RRF loss was in patients with administration of diuretics. Each increase of 1 g/m2/day glucose exposure was associated with a 5% increase in RRF loss (odds ratio (OR) 1.05, p = 0.023) and each increase of 1 ml/m2/day ultrafiltration volume was associated with a 1% increase in RRF loss (OR 1.01, p = 0.013). Conclusion: In children undergoing APD, the risk for loss of RRF is associated with low urine volume at the start of APD, high glucose loading and high peritoneal ultrafiltration volume, while preservation of RRF is associated with the usage of diuretics.

Objective It is unknown whether a given level of urea clearance by the native kidneys provides better or similar control of uremia than the same level of urea clearance by continuous peritoneal dialysis (PD). More insight into possible differences between renal and peritoneal urea clearances is warranted. Therefore, we investigated the relationship between Kt/Vurea and protein equivalent of total nitrogen appearance normalized to body weight (nPNA), the relationship between urea clearance and creatinine appearance, and other nutritional parameters in PD patients without residual renal function, and in predialysis end-stage renal disease patients. Patients All patients participated in the Netherlands Cooperative Study on the Adequacy of Dialysis. This is a prospective cohort study of incident dialysis patients, in whom regular assessments of renal function are done. A group of 75 PD patients was identified at the first follow-up assessment in which their urine production was less than 100 mL/day. These patients were considered the anuric group. This group was compared with a control group of 97 predialysis patients studied 0 – 4 weeks before the start of dialysis treatment. Results Linear relationships were present between Kt/Vurea and nPNA, in both the predialysis patients and the anuric PD patients. A significant difference was present between the slopes of the two regression lines (0.40 vs 0.18, p = 0.007). When Kt/Vurea exceeded 1.3/week, a given level of Kt/Vurea was associated with a higher nPNA in predialysis than in anuric PD patients. Similar relationships were found between Kturea and PNA. Kturea was also significantly related to urine or dialysate creatinine appearance. A significant difference existed between the slopes of the regression lines in the two groups of patients ( p < 0.001). A weekly Kturea of 70 L was associated with a urine creatinine appearance of 11.0 mmol/day and a dialysate creatinine appearance of 8.4 mmol/day. Nutritional status measured with creatinine appearance and Subjective Global Assessment was better in the predialysis population, despite much lower values for Kt/Vurea in these patients. Conclusions The relationship between Kt/Vurea and nPNA in anuric PD patients is different from that in a predialysis population. It follows from our results that, when Kt/Vurea is above 1.3/week, a given level of Kt/Vurea is associated with a higher nPNA in predialysis than in anuric PD patients. This challenges the concept of equivalency between renal and peritoneal Kt/Vurea with respect to control of uremic morbidity.

Objective Although early reports demonstrated that serum β2-microglobulin (s-β2m) concentrations in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) were lower than those in patients on hemodialysis (HD), more recent studies demonstrated lower s-β2m concentrations in HD patients treated mainly with high-flux synthetic membranes. We therefore compared s-β2m concentrations between patients on PD and on HD, and also analyzed the relationship between s-β2m concentrations and other parameters in patients on PD. Patients and Methods We investigated 24 patients who had been undergoing PD [11 on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis, 13 on continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis] for 4.3 ± 2.7 years, and 24 patients who had been undergoing HD with high-flux synthetic membranes for 6.1 ± 3.2 years. Concentrations of s-β2m in the PD patients were compared to concentrations in the HD patients. In patients on PD, we also analyzed the relationship between s-β2m concentration and other parameters, including residual renal function, total weekly Kt/V urea, total weekly creatinine clearance (CCr), and dialysis schedules. Results We found no significant difference in s-β2m concentrations between the PD and HD patients (33.6 ± 10.4 mg/L vs 30.3 ± 10.5 mg/L respectively). Concentrations of s-β2m in PD patients rose with PD duration and were significantly inversely correlated with residual renal function ( r = –0.71, p < 0.0001). Unexpectedly, concentrations of s-β2m in anuric PD patients rose as peritoneal CCr increased. And most of the patients with high s-β2m levels fell into the high or high-average transport categories according to a peritoneal equilibration test. Conclusions Concentrations of s-β2m in patients on PD did not differ significantly from concentrations in HD patients who were using high-flux synthetic membranes. The contribution of residual renal function to removal of β2m was more important than the contribution of peritoneal clearance. High peritoneal clearance of small molecules did not result in low s-β2m concentrations, especially in anuric patients with accelerated peritoneal permeability.

Background: Chronic kidney disease is a non-communicable global problem. In patients of chronic kidney disease especially in hemodialysis patient mortality and morbidity due to atherosclerosis induced cardiovascular complications is very high despite the advances of hemodialysis procedure. Residual renal function contributes significantly to the overall health and cardiovascular morbidity of dialysis patients. So, the loss of residual renal function, especially in patients on hemodialysis, is a powerful predictor of mortality. Preserving residual renal function is the goal of nephrologists. Objective: To find the association between residual renal function and cardiovascular morbidity in twice weekly and thrice weekly hemodialysis patient. Methodology: This cross sectional study was conducted on 72 hemodialysis patients received dialysis more than three months in the dialysis centre of BSMMU and DMCH, Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period of October 2018 to September 2019. Study populations were divided into two groups on the basis of residual renal function (RRF). RRF was defined by interdialytic 24 hours urine volume and average of urinary urea and creatinine clearance. Preserved RRF was defined 24 hours urine volume more than 100 ml. Chi-square test (χ2), Student’s paired t-test and multiple regression analysis were used to find association between cardiovascular morbidity and RRF. Result: A significant difference of diastolic dysfunction, systolic dysfunction, LVH (p=0.001, p=0.001, p=0.004 respectively) was seen in between preserved RRF and without preserved RRF group but the difference of regional wall motion abnormality and valvular heart disease was found to be non-significant. In regression analysis, loss of RRF was found to be a significant predictor of cardiovascular morbidity. Conclusion: Preserved RRF was significantly associated with less frequent diastolic dysfunction, left ventricular hypertrophy and higher level of left ventricular ejection fraction compared to without preserved residual renal function in both twice weekly and thrice weekly HD patient.

ObjectiveResidual renal function (RRF) is associated with low oxidative stress in peritoneal dialysis (PD). In the present study, we investigated the relationship between the impact of oxidative stress on RRF and patient outcomes during PD.MethodsLevels of free radicals (FRs) in effluent from the overnight dwell in 45 outpatients were determined by electron spin resonance spectrometry. The FR levels, clinical parameters, and the level of 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine were evaluated at study start. The effects of effluent FR level on technique and patient survival were analyzed in a prospective cohort followed for 24 months.ResultsLevels of effluent FRs showed significant negative correlations with daily urine volume and residual renal Kt/V, and positive correlations with plasma β2-microglobulin and effluent 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine. A highly significant difference in technique survival ( p < 0.05), but not patient survival, was observed for patients grouped by effluent FR quartile. The effluent FR level was independently associated with technique failure after adjusting for patient age, history of cardiovascular disease, and presence of diabetes mellitus ( p < 0.001). The level of effluent FRs was associated with death-censored technique failure in both univariate ( p < 0.001) and multivariate ( p < 0.01) hazard models. Compared with patients remaining on PD, those withdrawn from the modality had significantly higher levels of effluent FRs ( p < 0.005).ConclusionsElevated effluent FRs are associated with RRF and technique failure in stable PD patients. These findings highlight the importance of oxidative stress as an unfavorable prognostic factor in PD and emphasize that steps should be taken to minimize oxidative stress in these patients.

<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> The effect of high serum ferritin levels on long-term mortality in hemodialysis patients is unknown. The relationship between serum ferritin levels and 5-year all-cause mortality in hemodialysis patients was investigated in this study. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A total of 173 prevalent hemodialysis patients were included in this study. The patients were followed for up to 5 years and divided into 3 groups according to time-averaged serum ferritin levels (group 1: serum ferritin &#x3c;800 ng/mL, group 2: serum ferritin 800–1,500 ng/mL, and group 3: serum ferritin &#x3e;1,500 ng/mL). Along with the serum ferritin levels, other clinical and laboratory variables that may affect mortality were also included in the Cox proportional-hazards regression analysis. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Eighty-one (47%) patients died during the 5-year follow-up period. The median follow-up time was 38 (17.5–60) months. The 5-year survival rates of groups 1, 2, and 3 were 44, 64, and 27%, respectively. In group 3, the survival was lower than in groups 1 and 2 (log-rank test, <i>p</i> = 0.002). In group 1, the mortality was significantly lower than in group 3 (HR [95% CI]: 0.16 [0.05–0.49]; <i>p</i> = 0.001). In group 2, the mortality was also lower than in group 3 (HR [95% CI]: 0.32 [0.12–0.88]; <i>p</i> = 0.026). No significant difference in mortality between groups 1 and 2 was found (HR [95% CI]: 0.49 [0.23–1.04]; <i>p</i> = 0.063). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Time-averaged serum ferritin levels &#x3e;1,500 ng/mL in hemodialysis patients are associated with an increased 5-year all-cause mortality risk.

ObjectivePreservation of residual renal function (RRF) is associated with improved survival. The aim of the present study was to identify independent predictors of RRF and urine volume (UV) in incident peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients.MethodsThe study included incident PD patients who were balANZ trial participants. The primary and secondary outcomes were RRF and UV, respectively. Both outcomes were analyzed using mixed effects linear regression with demographic data in the first model and PD-related parameters included in a second model.ResultsThe study included 161 patients (mean age 57.9 ± 14.1 years, 44% female, 33% diabetic, mean follow-up 19.5 ± 6.6 months). Residual renal function declined from 7.5 ± 2.9 mL/min/1.73 m2at baseline to 3.3 ± 2.8 mL/min/1.73 m2at 24 months. Better preservation of RRF was independently predicted by male gender, higher baseline RRF, higher time-varying systolic blood pressure (SBP), biocompatible (neutral pH, low glucose degradation product) PD solution, lower peritoneal ultrafiltration (UF) and lower dialysate glucose exposure. In particular, biocompatible solution resulted in 27% better RRF preservation. Each 1 L/day increase in UF was associated with 8% worse RRF preservation ( p = 0.007) and each 10 g/day increase in dialysate glucose exposure was associated with 4% worse RRF preservation ( p < 0.001). Residual renal function was not independently predicted by body mass index, diabetes mellitus, renin angiotensin system inhibitors, peritoneal solute transport rate, or PD modality. Similar results were observed for UV.ConclusionsCommon modifiable risk factors which were consistently associated with preserved RRF and residual UV were use of biocompatible PD solutions and achievement of higher SBP, lower peritoneal UF, and lower dialysate glucose exposure over time.
