A1C and survival in maintenance hemodialysis patients.
OBJECTIVE The optimal target for glycemic control has not been established in diabetic dialysis patients. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS To address this question, the national database of a large dialysis organization (DaVita) was analyzed via time-dependent survival models with repeated measures. RESULTS Of 82,933 patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) in DaVita outpatient clinics...
متن کاملHemoglobin A1c Levels and Mortality in the Diabetic Hemodialysis Population
OBJECTIVE Lowering hemoglobin A(1c) to <7% reduces the risk of microvascular complications of diabetes, but the importance of maintaining this target in diabetes patients with kidney failure is unclear. We evaluated the relationship between A(1c) levels and mortality in an international prospective cohort study of hemodialysis patients. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Included were 9,201 hemodial...
متن کاملHemoglobin A1c in hemodialysis patients: should one size fit all?
Currently recommended hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) targets in ESRD patients are identical to those for the general population; an issue of considerable debate. In this issue, Williams and colleagues provide observational data on the association of HbA1c with mortality among nearly 25,000 hemodialysis patients in the United States. Statistically significant findings were observed only among subjects w...
متن کاملNadir hemoglobin levels after discontinuation of epoetin in hemodialysis patients.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES In hemodialysis patients, both hemoglobin variability and targeting normalization of hemoglobin may have adverse consequences. There are few data on epoetin management in patients achieving high hemoglobin levels. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS Maintenance hemodialysis patients within Dialysis Clinic Inc. (DCI) who were treated with a 20 to 30% epoetin...
متن کاملSerum Soluble (Pro)Renin Receptor Levels in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients
The (pro)renin receptor [(P)RR] is cleaved by furin to generate soluble (P)RR [s(P)RR], which reflects the status of the tissue renin-angiotensin system. Hemodialysis patients have advanced atherosclerosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between serum s(P)RR levels and background factors, including indices of atherosclerosis, in hemodialysis patients. Serum s(P)RR le...
