Cardiac, Inflammatory and Metabolic Parameters: Hemodialysis versus Peritoneal Dialysis

Abstract: Introduction: Mortality in dialysis patients is higher than in the general population, and cardiovascular disease represents the leading cause of death. Hypertension and volume overload are important risk factors for the development of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Other factors are mainly represented by hyperparathyroidism, vascular calcification, arterial stiffness and inflammation. The aim of this study was to compare blood pressure (BP) and m… Show more

“…The hemodynamic consequences of VC include loss of arterial elasticity, increase in PWV, development of left ventricular hypertrophy, decrease in coronary artery perfusion, and myocardial ischemia [28] in association with higher serum levels of OPG [29] in PD patients. Moreover, progressors had higher CTR values than nonprogressors in the present study.…”

“…There are several co-morbidities in dialysis patients, such as DM, hypertension, anemia, malnutrition and chronic inflammation; fluid status may also contribute to cardiomegaly202122. Moreover, reduced ABI is associated with PAOD2324 and secondary to DM, smoking, hypertension, advanced age and hyperlipidemia25.…”
