Background : Hemodialysis is one of the therapies for Chronic Kidney Failure (CKD) patients. This process takes place on an ongoing basis which is closely related to the quality of life. Quality of life is strongly influenced by family support. One form of family support is emotional support which includes forms of affection, trust, attention, assistance during therapy. With this support, it affects patient compliance with therapy programs and medical treatment programs so that it will improve the patient's quality of life. Objective: To determine the relationship between family support and quality of life of hemodialysis patients. Based on journals that have been analyzed by researchers using a literature review research design or literature review study literature review Methods: search for this research article through four databases, namely Google Scholar, ProQuest, EBSCO, and PubMed using keywords and inclusion criteria, namely 21 journal using Indonesian and English, the type of article publication is full-text articles, original research articles, articles that have ISSN and DOI, the theme of the article is the relationship of family support with the quality of life of hemodialysis patients, in the 2016-2021 period with the literature review method. Results: The results of this study showed a significant relationship between family support and quality of life of hemodialysis patients with p-value=0,001 <a=0.05 with a positive correlation direction with low correlation strength. Conclusion: The higher the support from the family, the better the quality of life for chronic kidney failure patients undergoing hemodialysis.

This descriptive correlational study was aimed at determining the relationship of hemodialysis shift with sleep quality and depression in 310 hemodialysis patients. Demographic and Clinical Questionnaires, the Pittsburgh sleep quality index, and Beck’s Depression Inventory were used to ascertain the aforementioned relationship. Among the patients, 59.6% reported poor sleep quality and 44.8% reported experiencing depression. Results show that these conditions were significantly related to many factors. Although dialysis shift was not significantly related to sleep quality and depression, sleep quality was found significantly associated with age, female gender, illiteracy, unemployment, residence in rural areas, diabetes, addiction to sedatives, and phosphorus levels. A significant relationship was also found between depression and phosphorus levels. Logistic regression predicted age, gender, illiteracy, unemployment, residence in rural areas, and addiction to sedatives as factors for poor sleep quality. A body mass index (BMI) above 30, decreased urea, and increased phosphorus were predicted as factors for increased depression.

Background:Several study suggested body mass index(BMI) may influence development of rheumatoid arthritis(RA). There are conflicting reports concerning the impact of high BMI on development of RA, but several reports of obese on drug resistance and functional impairment. The relationship of genetic polymorphism on obesity is unclear in RA.Objectives:To examine the relationship among BMI, genetic polymorphism of obesity, disease activity of RA, laboratory parameters, and therapeutic agent of RA.Methods:We have carried out a retrospective observational study by systematically analyzing medical records of total 289 patients diagnosed with RA in Shinko Hospital between March 2016 and December 2019. We also conducted genotyping single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) including FTO (rs1558902 and rs9939609), UCP1 (rs1800592), ADR2(rs1042713) and ADR3(rs4994) after informed consent. Obesity was defined as BMI over than 25 and patients were divided between obese (“Ob”) and non-obese (“non-Ob”). These SNPs, DAS28CRP, laboratory parameters, methotrexate dose, use of biological DMARDs were compared between Ob and non-Ob patients.Results:Of these 289 patients, 82.7% was female, mean age was 61.9 years and BMI was 22.4. Univariate logistic regression showed differences (p<0.1) between Ob and non Ob groups in UCP1 gene mutation(63.6% vs 78%, P=0.018), DAS(2.24 vs 1.99, P=0.033),triglyceride abnormality(23.8% vs 9.3%, P=0.021), HDL(56 vs 71, P=0.00009), HbA1c abnormality(26.5% vs 12.1%, P=0.019),γGTP(32 vs 21, P=0.00037), ALP (253 vs 230, P=0.0058), ALT (26.5 vs 20, P=0.029),and MTX dose(6 vs 8, P=0.066). Multivariate logistic regression showed that Ob group was significantly associated with HDL(OR=0.976, 95%CI 0.958 to 0.995), UCP1 gene mutation(OR=0.446, 95%CI 0.202 to 0.984), γGTP(OR=2.321, 95%CI 1.269 to 4.245), and MTX dose(OR=0.866, 0.784 to 0.957).Conclusion:Obesity in patients with RA had significant positive correlation with γGTP, and negative correlation with HDL, UCP gene mutation and MTX dose.Disclosure of Interests:None declared
