Objectives: To investigate the correlation between bone density and osteoporosis with some clinical and subclinical factors in patients with dialysis chronic kidney patients. Materials and Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional study, include 163 patients with dialysis chronic kidney disease, from January 2017 to December 2018 at the Department of Haemodyalysis, District 2 Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City. Results: Bone density was negatively correlated with age at the lumbar spine (LS) (r = - 0.225), total hip (total H) (r = - 0.288), femoral neck (FN) (r = - 0.352); with urea at the total H (r = - 0.206), FN (r = - 0.194); with PTH at LS (r = - 0.266), total H (r = - 0.219), FN (r = - 0.168); with β2 Microglobulin at the LS (r = - 0.269). Bone density was positively correlated with glomerular filtration rate at the LS (r = 0.200), FN (r = 0.179); with vitamin D at the LS (r = 0.218) and total H (r = 0.179). Multivariate regression analysis of the risk of decreased bone density at the FN has 2 factors: age (OR = 1.117), PTH (OR = 1.001); at the LS, there are 3 factors: gender (OR = 4.572), PTH (OR=4.078), age (OR = 1.045); at the total H, there are 2 factors: PTH (OR = 3.683), age (OR = 1.117). Osteoporosis in all 3 positions was related to sex (p < 0.05) and age group (p < 0.01). Osteoporosis was associated with PTH, Phosphorus, Aluminum disorders at the FN (p < 0.05), with PTH at the LS (p < 0.05), with PTH, calcium at the total H (p < 0.05). Multivariate regression analysis of the risk of osteoporosis has 3 factors: age (OR = 4.058), PTH (OR = 2.967), female (OR = 2.841). Conclusion: Bone density, osteoporosis is correlated, associated with common factors and factors associated with bone mineral disorders in patients with dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD - MBD). Key words: End-stage chronic kidney disease, dialysis, bone density

Abstract: Chronic kidney disease has got a lot of attention and more widely studied despite reached end stage renal failure, patients still live a long life witha fairly good quality of life although the prevalence is increases throughout the year. one of the circumstances in chronic kidney disease is uremia which is a clinical and laboratory syndrome that occurs inorgans. In uremia interference with platelet function, the production ofprostacyclinin blood vesselswould increase, and excessurea levels in blood would be a potential vasodilator and platelet aggregation antagonist. Methods: An analytic observational cross-sectional study. Samples were patients that diagnosed with chronic kidney disease at the Hospital Clinic of Nephrology-Hypertension Prof. Dr.R. D.Kandou Manado in December toFebruary 2014. Criteria included were patients  <80 years old and has been diagnosed with chronic kidney disease in this case had done a physical examination and investigations by doctors, using medical record of urea-creatinine and also a complete blood countand platelet aggregation in Prokita Laboratory Manado. Forstatistical analysisusedShapiro-Wilk testalsoPearsonCorrelationstest. Result: There were 20 patients with chronic kidney disease sampled in this study. It was found that there is a relationship between of urea-creatinine and aggregation results in trace ADP5(P=0.004) while the value ADP10 no significant correlation(P =0.399). Conclusion: In chronic kidney disease patients, urea-creatininewiththe value of platelet aggregation intrace ADP5had a relation ship while intrace ADP10 had not a relationship. Keywords: Chronic kidney disease, platelet aggregation.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects 10–15% of the population worldwide and its prevalence is increasing. Objective: To find the frequency of common diseases causing chronic kidney diseases (CKD) in dialysis dependent patients in District Swat, Khyber Pukhtonkhwa. Methodology: Cross sectional study at Department of Nephrology Nawaz Sharif Kidney Hospital, District Swat, Khyber Pukhtonkhwa, Pakistan. Results: Total of 110 patients were undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. There were 53(48.2%) male and mean age was 54.40+ 16.32 years. Among 110 patients, only 9 (8.2%) had dialysis once per week and 101(91.8%) had dialysis twice per week hemodialysis. Majority, 64(58.2%) patients were undergoing dialysis less than one year. 6(5.5 %) had hypertension, 33(30%) had diabetes and 68(61.8%) patients had both Diabetes and Hypertension. Out of 110, 39(35.5%) patients were Hepatitis B positive, and 28(25.5%) patients had Hepatitis C. Conclusion:  Results of this study showed that the leading cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD) among dialysis patients was diabetes mellitus with or without hypertension and a high prevalence of both HBV and HCV.

Background: Hyperuricemia is increasingly recognized as a risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD) just in adults. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical characteristics of hyperuricemia and its associated factors in Chinese children with CKD at a single center. Methods: A cross-sectional study of 170 CKD children collected from the Department of Nephrology, The Zhejiang University Children’s Hospital was conducted. The clinical data, including anthropometric data, blood pressure measurements, and biochemical parameters, were recorded and analyzed retrospectively. The factors associated with hyperuricemia in CKD children were evaluated by Pearson and Spearman correlation analysis and multiple logistic regression analysis. Results: The mean age was 9.79 ± 4.10 years, and 72 (42.35%) were girls. Higher blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine, cystatin C, D-dimer, lower hemoglobin, albumin, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were significantly associated with higher serum uric acid (SUA). In multiple logistic regression analysis, anemia and higher BUN were both positively associated factors, whereas eGFR ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m2 was a negatively associated factor for subjects with SUA ≥ 390 µmol/L (6.5 mg/dL). Conclusions: SUA was significantly associated with kidney risk factors in CKD children. Monitoring and controlling SUA, Hb, BUN, and Scr levels in CKD children may help to prevent the progression of CKD.

Abstract Background Harmonizing formulas have been demonstrated to be associated with reduced risk of end-stage renal disease in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the target population and indications of harmonizing formulas in CKD remain unknown. Methods We conducted a population-based cross-sectional study to explore factors associated with harmonizing formulas prescription. Patients who had been prescribed harmonizing formulas after CKD diagnosis were defined as the using harmonizing formulas group. Disease diagnoses for harmonizing formula prescriptions and patient characteristics related to the prescriptions were collected. Results In total, 24,971 patients were enrolled in this analysis, and 5,237 (21%) patients were prescribed harmonizing formulas after CKD diagnosis. The three most frequent systematic diseases and related health problems for which harmonizing formula prescriptions were issued in CKD were symptoms, signs, and ill-defined conditions (24.5%), diseases of the digestive system, (20.67%), and diseases of the musculoskeletal system (12.9%). Higher likelihoods of harmonizing formula prescriptions were associated with young age (adjusted odds ratio: 0.98, 95% confidence interval: 0.97–0.98), female sex (1.79, 1.68–1.91), no diabetes (1.20, 1.06–1.35), no hypertension (1.38, 1.26–1.50), no cerebrovascular disease (1.34, 1.14–1.56), less disease severity (0.86, 0.83–0.89), using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) (1.65, 1.54–1.78), and using analgesic drugs other than NSAIDs (1.46, 1.35–1.59). Conclusions Harmonizing formulas are commonly used for treating symptoms of the digestive and musculoskeletal systems in CKD cases. Further research on harmonizing formula effectiveness with regard to particular characteristics of CKD patients is warranted.

Objectives. Several serum biomarkers have been reported to increase in periodontitis patients as possible mediators linking periodontal inflammation to systemic diseases. However, the relationship between periodontitis and urine biomarkers is still unclear. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate potential urine biomarkers of periodontitis in a Japanese population.Materials and Methods. This study included 108 male subjects, and microbiological and clinical parameters were evaluated as a periodontitis marker. The correlation between nine urine biomarkers (typically used to diagnose kidney disease) and periodontal parameters was analyzed. Based on the findings,β2-microglobulin (β2-MG) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) were selected for comparison and multivariate regression analysis, and the Kruskal–Wallis test followed by Bonferroni correction was used to identify differences in their concentrations between the three periodontitis groups (severe, moderate, and no/mild periodontitis).Results.β2-MG and NGAL exhibited a significant correlation with clinical parameters of periodontitis. The prevalence of clinical parameters such as bleeding on probing and number of sites with probing depth (PD) ≥ 6 mm were greater in theβ2-MG high group (≥300 μg/g creatinine) than in the normal group (P=0.017and 0.019, respectively). Multivariate regression analysis indicated that the number of sites with PD ≥ 6 mm was independently associated with urineβ2-MG. Moreover, the number of sites with the clinical attachment level (CAL) ≥ 6 mm was greater in the NGAL high group (highest quartile) (P=0.041). Multivariate regression analysis showed that the number of sites with CAL ≥ 6 mm was associated independently with urine NGAL. Finally,β2-MG was significantly higher in the severe periodontitis subjects compared to the no/mild periodontitis subjects.Conclusion. The significant association between urineβ2-MG or NGAL and periodontitis was revealed. These biomarkers can potentially be used to screen for or diagnose periodontitis. This trial is registered with the UMIN Clinical Trials RegistryUMIN000013485.

ObjectivesLower health literacy (HL) is associated with poor outcomes in patients with kidney disease. Since HL matches the patient’s competencies with the complexities of the care package, the level of HL sufficient in earlier stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD) may be inadequate for patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) on dialysis. We aimed to analyse the HL profile of patients with ESKD and non-dialysis CKD and examine if there were significant associations with covariates which could be targeted to address HL deficits, thereby improving patient outcomes.Design and settingCross-sectional study of patients with CKD and ESKD from a single Australian health district.MethodsWe assessed the HL profile of 114 patients with CKD and 109 patients with ESKD using a 44-item multidomain Health Literacy Questionnaire (HLQ) and examined its association with demographic factors (age, gender, race), smoking, income, education, comorbidities, carer status, cognitive function and depression. Using multivariable logistic regression models, HL profiles of patients with CKD and ESKD were evaluated after adjusting for covariates.ResultsPatients with ESKD had similar demographics and educational levels compared with patients with CKD. ESKD had significantly higher frequency of vascular disease, cognitive impairment and depression. Patients with ESKD had better HL scores for the social support domain (37.1% vs 19.5% in higher HLQ4 tertile, p=0.004), whereas all other HL domains including engagement with healthcare providers were comparable to CKD. Depression was independently associated with nearly all of the HL domains (HLQ1: OR 2.6, p=0.030; HLQ2: OR 7.9, p=<0.001; HLQ3: OR 7.6, p<0.001; HLQ4: OR 3.5, p=0.010; HLQ5: OR 8.9, p=0.001; HLQ6: OR 3.9, p=0.002; HLQ7: OR 4.8, p=0.001; HLQ8: OR 5.3, p=0.001) and education with HL domains relevant to processing health-related information (HLQ8: OR 2.6, p=0.008; HLQ9: OR 2.5, p=0.006).ConclusionsDespite very frequent interactions with health systems, patients with ESKD on dialysis did not have higher HL in engagement with health providers and most other HL domains, compared with patients with CKD. Strategies promoting patient–provider engagement and managing depression which strongly associates with lower HL may address the impact of HL deficits and favourably modify clinical outcomes in renal patients.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with impairment of mineral metabolism that, in turn, may result in the derangement of bone density, i.e. osteopenia or osteoporosis. Purpose: The objective of this study is to assess the impairment of bone density in male patients underwent routine hemodialysis due to stage V CKD.Methods: Subjects in this cross sectional study were male patients underwent routine hemodialysis in Hemodialysis Unit Dr. Sardjito General Hospital Yogyakarta in June 2014. Subjects were invited when they were over 18 years old and had undergone hemodialysis for at least 6 months. Bone density of lumbar spine, total hip and femoral neck were assessed using DEXA. We collected information on age and the etiology of the CKD from medical records. Body weight and height were measured using calibrated apparatus. Data were analyzed using OpenEpi.Results: We invited 30 male patients with mean (SD) age of 56.8 (13.8) years. Bone density of lumbar spine and femoral neck were significantly associated with the duration of hemodialysis, i.e. OR (95% CI) of 31.7 (3.8-856.0), p=0.0003 and 12.0 (1.9-111.0), p=0.005, respectively for those underwent hemodialysis of more than 12 months. Obesity was only protective for the bone density of the total hip, OR(95%CI) of 0.1 (0.004-0.9), p=0.03. There was no association between the etiology of the CKD and the decrease in bone density.Conclusion: This study observed significant association between the duration of hemodialysis and bone density.
