Relation Between Pulmonary Hypertension and Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis
(2016)
Objectives: Pulmonary hypertension has been reported to occur in a considerable proportion of patients with end-stage renal disease. End-stage renal disease affects the health-related quality of life of patients. There is ...
The Effect of Hemodialysis on Balance Measurements and Risk of Fall
(2016)
Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) have increased risk of falls and fall-related complications. Other than aging and factors related to chronic kidney disease, treatment of hemodialysis may also contribute to ...
Epicardial Adipose Tissue Thickness and Carotid Intima-Media Thickness in Hemodialysis Patients
(2017)
Background: It is well-known that cardiovascular risk and all-cause mortality is increased in hemodialysis patients. Epicardial fat thickness (EFT), which reflects visceral adiposity, has been suggested as a new cardiometabolic ...
Hematological Parameters Can Predict the Extent of Coronary Artery Disease in Patients with End-Stage Renal Disease
(2015)
Aside from traditional factors (e.g., diabetes, age, and hypertension), some hematological parameters, such as neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), red blood cell distribution width (RDW), and mean platelet volume (MPV), ...
Acidosis and Hyperkalemia Caused By Losartan and Enalapril in Pediatric Kidney Transplant Recipients
(2014)
Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of losartan and enalapril in pediatric kidney transplant recipients.
Materials and Methods: A retrospective review was performed in 31 pediatric kidney transplant recipients ...
The Effect of Pretransplant Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection Treatment on Graft and Patient Survival in Renal Transplant Recipients
(2015)
Objectives: Studies have demonstrated worse graft and patient survival among hepatitis C virus-positive patients following kidney transplant. Eradication of hepatitis C virus infection before renal transplant with interferon ...
Panel Reactive Antibodies in Predicting Hepatitis C Virus Treatment Outcome in Kidney Transplant Candidates
(2015)
Objectives: Chronic hepatitis C virus infection compromises hemodialysis patients and increases liver-related mortality. Interferon treatment is associated with improved sustained virological response rates and increased ...
Progression of Hepatic Histopathology in Kidney Transplant Recipients With Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection and Effect of Immunosuppression on the Course of Hepatitis C Virus Infection
(2015)
Objectives: There is no correlation between alanine aminotransferase levels, viral load, and histologic findings at dialysis in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus infection. Identification of the severity of hepatitis ...
Association Between Panel Reactive Antibody and Antiendothelial Cell Antibody Positivity in Kidney Transplant Patients
(2015)
Objectives: Endothelium is the major tissue for hyperacute and acute rejection. Binding of antibody to endothelium activates several immunologic mechanisms. Antiendothelial cell antibodies are a group of nonhuman leukocyte ...
Dermal Tophus: A Complication of Gout in a Kidney Transplant Recipient
(2015)
Gout is a chronic metabolic disease caused by disturbance of purine metabolism that leads to hyperuricemia. Hyperuricemia prevalence after renal transplant is reported as 19% to 84% in different studies. Tophaceous gout ...
