The Evaluation Incidence and Risk Factors of Mortality among Patients with End Stage Renal Disease in Southeast Turkey

Abstract: CVD are the most important preventable causes of morbidity and mortality in all stages of chronic kidney disease. Taking precaution against CVD and the associated complications will provide a positive contribution in reducing morbidity and mortality among ESRD patients.

“…It’s suggested to measure hemoglobin in patients with impaired renal function to identify those with a higher risk of having or developing anemia, and to assess renal function using a simple and reliable formula based on their mutual relationship, which accords with our study . Furthermore, anemia and hypoalbuminemia were associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality in end‐stage renal disease, which seems to fit in with our findings.…”

“…1 Risk of CVD is 3.5-50 times higher in patients undergoing renal replacement therapy than in general population. 2,3 Augmentation in the risk of CVD in patients with ESRD is not only related to traditional risk factors, even when the traditional risk factors are fixed, but also related to untraditional and uremia-specific risk factors such as hypertension secondary to chronic hypervolemia, anemia, disorders of calcium-phosphorus (Ca-P) metabolism, hypercatabolism, hyperhomocysteinemia, and chronic microinflammation subsequent to oxidative stress (OS). 4 OS is described as dominance of pro-oxidants to antioxidant systems and plays an important role in the development of systemic diseases and related complications.…”
