This was a hospital based prospective, interventional study which included CKD stage 3- 5 patients with higher level of uric acid (male>7mg/dl, female>6mg/dl). The objective of the study was to evaluate the effect of allopurinol on inflammatory markers in patients with chronic kidney disease (stage 3-5) with asymptomatic hyperuricaemia. One hundred and twenty patients were distributed in two groups. Sixty patients were placed in treatment group and sixty in control group. Purposive sampling technique was followed. In the study mean age was 49 (±9) years in treatment group and 45 (±11) years in control groups. Male were predominant in both groups. There were no significant difference in baseline characteristics between treatment group and control group (p>0.05). Sixty patients of treatment group were administered a dose of 100 mg/d of allopurinol. Follow up assessment was done at basally, at 4 months and at 8 month after starting treatment. No significant differences were seen between baseline SBP, DBP, Hb and HbA1c with 4th month and 8th month follow up in both treatment group and control group, but mean Hb was significantly decreased in control group from the baseline after 8 month. No significant change was found in case of mean ESR at 4th and 8th month in any group. But base line mean CRP was significantly reduced in treatment group and increased in control group at 4th and 8th month of follow up. Serum uric acid was decreased in treatment group while it was significantly raised from the base line at 4th month and 8th month in control group. While comparing between two groups results showed means of serum uric acid and CRP were significantly decreased in treatment group compared to control group after 8th month. There was a positive correlation between Uric Acid with CRP level after 8 month of allopurinol treatment although this finding was not statistically significant. So, allopurinol may have a protective role in CKD by decreasing serum uric acid level and reduction of inflammatory response in patients with chronic kidney disease stage 3 - 5 with asymptomatic hyperuricaemia.J Dhaka Medical College, Vol. 26, No.1, April, 2017, Page 12-24

Serum uric acid was decreased in treatment group while it was significantly raised from the base line at 4th month and 8th month in control group. In treatment group serum creatinine was decreased and eGFR was raised from the baseline after 8 month. On the other hand, in control group serum creatinine was significantly raised and eGFR was significantly decreased from the baseline at 8th month. While comparing between two groups results showed means of serum uric acid was significantly decreased in treatment group compared to control group after 8th month. There was a negative correlation between Uric Acid with eGFR after 8 month of allopurinol treatment although this finding was not statistically significant. So, allopurinol may have a protective role in CKD progression by decreasing serum uric acid level in patients with chronic kidney disease stage 3 - 5 with asymptomatic hyperuricaemia.J Dhaka Medical College, Vol. 25, No.1, April, 2016, Page 5-15

Background: Hyperuricemia is associated with the event of hypertension and renal disease progression. The aim of the study was to evaluate the role of allopurinol in slowing the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage III and IV. Methods: This study was prospective interventional study was carried out in department of Nephrology, Sir Salimullah Medical College and Mitford Hospital, Dhaka, during the period of January 2014 to December 2014. On the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria a total of 80CKD patients were enrolled in this study.80 patients were distributed in two groups. 40 patients were placed in treatment group and 40 patients were placed in control group. Purposive sampling method was followed.40 patients of treatment group were administered allopurinol 100 mg daily. Clinical, hematologic, and biochemical parameters were measured at baseline, at 4th month and 8th month of treatment. Results: No significant differences were seen between baseline SBP, DBP, Hb and HbA1c with 4th month and 8th follow up in both treatment group and control group. eGFR was significantly less declined at 4th months and 8thmonths in patient treated with allopurinol (treatment group). A negative Pearson’s correlation (r= -0.104; p=0.524) was found between uric acid with eGFR at 8th month in treatment group and significant positive Pearson’s correlation (r= 0.559 p=0.001) was found with CRP level. eGFR was significantly more declined at 4th months and 8th months in patient of control group. In control group a negative Pearson’s correlation (r= -0.126 p=0.437) was found between uric acid with eGFR at 8th month and positive Pearson’s correlation (r= 0.275 p=0193) was found with CRP level. Conclusions: Uric acid and CRP were significantly declined at 8th months in treatment group. Thus eGFR progression was significantly slow in treatment group at 4thmonths and 8th months from baseline due to positive effect of allopurinol by reducing inflammatory process that causes by high uric acid.

ABSTRACT: Intermittent hemodialysis (IHD) is a form of renal replacement that is used in veterinary medicine for cases involving drug removal, electrolyte imbalance, acute kidney injury, and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The aim of the present study was to verify the efficacy of IHD in dogs with CKD staged at grade III and to evaluate the effect of IHD on quality of life. Twelve dogs with CKD at stage III met the inclusion criteria and were divided equally into two groups. The control group (n=6) received only clinical treatment and intravenous fluid therapy, and the hemodialysis group (n=6) received clinical and IHD treatments. Blood samples were collected before and after treatments in both groups. We evaluated complications and clinical parameters of IHD every 30 minutes. Hemodialysis decreased serum urea, creatinine, and phosphorus. Despite the evident removal of nitrogen compounds, dialysis treatment did not increase survival time in these patients. The results of this study do not support the early use of dialysis in dogs with chronic kidney disease stage III.

The aim of the research was to study the effect ofoxidative factors impact and modality of renal replacement therapy (BBT) on indices ofoxidative stress (OS) and resistance of erythrocytes membranes in patients with chronic kidney disease stage V(CKD VD) and anemie. Material and methods. The study involved 68 patients with CKD VD: 14 patients were treated by hemodiafiltration (HDF), 25 patients by hemodialysis (HD) and 29 patients by peritoneal dialysis (PD). The severity ofanemia was assessed according to the KDIGO (2012) criteria. The control group consisted of 30 healthy people of the same age and sex. Along with the standard diagnostic methods, we defined the content of malonic dialdehyde in serum (MDAs) and in erythrocytes (MDAe), the content of ceruloplasmin (CPs), transferrin (TBs) and SH-groups in the blood serum, the index of the OS (IOS), catalase activity in serum (CATs), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDHe) and total peroxidase activity (TPA) in erythrocyte, peroxide resistance (PR) of red blood cells and erythrocyte membrane permeability (EMP). Statistical analysis was performed using the programs of Microsoft Excel 7.0. Results. It has been stated that in the CKD VD patients in compatison with control group the MDAs content increased by 3.3 times and MDAe - 1.2 times, TBs content reduced by 34%, SH-groups - by 31%, TPAe - by 41% and G- 6-FDGe - by 58%, PB-by 60%; 4.6 times increased CATs activity and OSI; 2 times grew peroxide hemolysis (PH) and 1.3 times - EMP. The analysis (depending on the BBT modality) showed that the patients treated by HDF had typical MDAs increase by 3.9 times on a background of CPs by 24%, TBs - 33%, SH-groups - 25%, TPAe - 51%, G-6-PDHe - 42%; the increase in serum OSI - 5.4 times and 2.6 times in erythrocytes, PB - by 3.6 times and CATs activity by 3.5 times; HD group was characterized by the highest value of MDAe, OSI, PH and CATs, along with more expressed decrease of TBs indices, SH-groups, TPA and G-6-FDHe activity compared with rates in patients with HDF. The patients treated with PD had the lowest content of MDAs and the highest values on the background ofTPAe, the significant increase of CPs by 1.7 times and lowest TBs and G-6-PDHe. The patients with PD showed twice lower OS activity by OSI. Conclusion. Thus, in patients with CKD VD, who had HD, HDF or PD an anemie was associated with high OS activity and the increased degree of hemolysis. These changes are stipulated by BBT methods: for patients receiving HDF were typical the lowest rates of hemolysis and the highest degree ofprotection for erythrocytes, and for patients treated with HD - the highest OS.

Material and methods. The study involved 47 patients with CKD VD: 14patients were treated by hemodiafiltration (HDF), 14 patients by hemodialysis (HD) and 19 patients by peritoneal dialysis (PD). The severity ofanemia was assessed according to the KDIGO (2012) criteria. The control group consisted of30 healthy people of the same age and sex. Along with the standard diagnostic methods, we defined the content of malonic dialdehyde in serum (MDAs) and in erythrocytes (MDAe), the content of ceruloplasmin (CPs), transferrin (TRs) and SH - groups in the blood serum, the index of the OS (IOS), catalase activity in serum (CTs), glucose - 6 - phosphate dehydrogenase (G - 6 - PDHe) and total peroxidase activity (TPA) in erythrocyte, osmotic (OR) and peroxide resistance (PR) of red blood cells and erythrocyte membrane permeability (EMP). Statistical analysis was performed using the programs Microsoft Excel 5,0 and MedStat. Results. It has been stated that in the CKD VD patients agains the rates in control group the MDAs content increased by 3.3 times and MDAe - 1.2 times, TRs content reduced by 34%, SH - groups - by 31%, TPAe - by 41% and G - 6 - FDGe - by 58%, marcers of OR by 30%, PR - by 60%; 4.6 times increased CTs activity and OSI; 2 times grew peroxide hemolysis (PH) and 1.3 times - EMP. The analysis (depending on the RRT modality) showed that the patients treated by HDF had typical MDAs increase by 3.9 times on a background of CPs by 24%o, TRs - 33%, SH - groups - 25%, TPAe - 51%, G6 - PDHe - 42%; the increase in serum OSI - 5.4 times and 2.6 times in erythrocytes, PR - by 3.6 times and CTs activity by 3,5 times; HD group were characterized by the highest value of MDAe, OSI, PH and CTs, along with more expressed decrease of indices TRs, SH - groups, TPA and G - 6 - FDHe activity compared with rates in patients with HDF. The patients treated with PD had the lowest content of MDAs and the highest values on the background ofTPAe, the significant increase of CPs by 1.7 times and lowest TRs and G - 6 - PDHe. The patients with PD showed twice lower OS activity by OSI. Conclusion.Thus, in patients with CKD VD, who had HD, HDF or PD an anemic syndrome was associated with high OS activity and the increased degree of hemolysis. These changes are stipulated by RRT methods: for patients receiving HDF were typical the lowest rates of hemolysis and the highest degree of protection for erythrocytes, and for patients treated with HD - the highest OS.

Introduction The independent role of serum uric acid (SUA) on kidney disease is controversial due to its association with metabolic syndrome. The objective of this study was to investigate the association of baseline SUA with development of chronic kidney disease and eGFR decline in normotensive, normoglycemic and non-obese individuals during follow up period. Materials and methods We included non-hypertensitive, non-diabetic, and non-obese 13,133 adults with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60ml/min/1.73m2 who had a voluntary health check-up during 2004–2017. Results SUA was positively related to adjusted means of systolic blood pressure (SBP), triglyceride, body mass index, and body fat percent. SUA was inversely associated with high density lipoprotein HDL (P for trend ≤0.001). SUA was an independent risk factor for the development of diabetes, hypertension, and obesity. During 45.0 [24.0–76.0] months of median follow up, the highest quartiles of SUA showed significant risks of 30% eGFR decline compared than the lowest quartile (RR:3.701; 95% CI: 1.504–9.108). The highest quartile had a 2.2 fold (95% CI: 1.182–4.177) increase in risk for incident chronic kidney disease (CKD). Conclusions SUA is an independent risk factor for the development of diabetes, hypertension, and obesity in the healthy population. High SUA is associated with increased risk of CKD development and eGFR decline in participants with intact renal function.
