Aim. Determination of desialized apolipoprotein-B-100 (apoB-100) and lipoprotein-containing circulating immune complexes in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in program hemodialysis with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Materials and methods. We examined 81 patients with CKD (50 men / 31 women) treated with program hemodialysis, of which 36 (17/19) with type 2 diabetes mellitus, 45 (33/12) non-diabetic patients. The levels of total cholesterol, triglycerides and desialylated apoB-100 in blood plasma and lipoprotein-containing circulating immune complexes. A color duplex scan of brachiocephalic arteries was used to assess the extent of development of atherosclerosis with the determination of the thickness of the intima-medial complex. Results and discussion. Patients with diabetes had high values of total cholesterol, triglycerides (p
Purpose Defining vascular calcification markers in patients on long-term hemodialysis (LTH) with type 2 diabetes mellitus (type 2 diabetes) and without type 2 diabetes. Materials and methods. The study was conducted in 82 patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) (51 men, 31 women) on LTH, of which 25 patients (10 men, 15 women) had type 2 diabetes and 57 people (33 men, 24 women) had no diabetes. All patients underwent evaluation of calcium-phosphate metabolism, control of intact PTH (iPTH), inorganic phosphorus, and total calcium. All patients were tested for the level of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) in blood serum using a multi-enzyme immunoassay kit, and the correlation between these parameters and the presence of vascular calcification was evaluated. Results. A correlation was found between the severity of vascular calcification and the calcium-phosphate metabolism. In the group with type 2 diabetes, there is a correlation between the level of FGF-23, iPTH, inorganic phosphorus and vascular calcification. There is also a correlation between the time on LTH and the increase in the level of FGF-23 in patients with type 2 diabetes. Conclusion. We obtained data that can indicate a more pronounced change in the vascular wall in patients with type 2 diabetes on LTH in comparison with patients without diabetes mellitus on LTH, which allows to associate high cardiovascular mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes on LTH with accelerated development of vascular calcification.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
