Low baseline serum albumin a predictor of anemia in patients on chronic hemodialysis
Background: Inflammatory process has a substantial contribution in the development of anemia in chronic hemodialysis patients. Low serum albumin in hemodialysis patients is considered a marker of inflammation. The present longitudinal study aimed to determine the relationship between low baseline serum albumin and future development of anemia. Methods: The population of this study consiste...
متن کاملLow Serum Concentration of Obestatin as a Predictor of Mortality in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients
Obestatin, a proposed anorexigenic gut hormone, has been shown to have a number of beneficial cardiotropic effects in experimental studies. We hypothesized that obestatin alteration in hemodialysis patients may link to clinical outcomes. This cross-sectional study with prospective followup for almost 4 years was performed on 94 prevalent hemodialysis patients. Obestatin, leptin, proinflammatory...
متن کاملHEART RATE: A PREDICTOR OF EARLY MORTALITY IN PATIENTS WITH MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION
A number of epidemiologic studies have reported a positive relationship between heart rate, cardiovascular disease and mortality. To examine the correlation between heart rate and mortality after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), 2147 patients hospitalized in coronary care units in Isfahan were investigated in a cross-sectional study. Their heart rate was measured according to an electroca...
متن کاملSerum magnesium concentration is a significant predictor of mortality in maintenance hemodialysis patients.
A few studies have reported a correlation between magnesium and co-morbidity and mortality in end-stage renal disease. We investigated the prognostic value of serum magnesium concentration for mortality in 515 patients on maintenance hemodialysis (60 +/- 12 years, 306 males and 209 females; 24% diabetics). The patients underwent follow-up for 51 +/- 17 (mean +/- SD) months, and the relationship...
متن کاملC-reactive protein is a strong predictor of mortality in hemodialysis patients.
BACKGROUND To establish the baseline cutoff value of C-reactive protein (CRP) that would predict increased overall and cardiovascular mortality in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). METHODS A cohort of 270 prevalent hemodialysis patients treated at Rijeka University Hospital was eligible for the study. Monthly CRP measurements were performed for three consecutive months. Only the p...
