The authors examined 34 patients with arterial hypertension, whose glomerular filtration rate ranged from normal to renal failure. The peripheral plasma renin activity (PRA) values were determined before and 30 and 90 min after injecting furosemide. In 17 patients with chronic renal failure treated by haemodialysis and with arterial hypertension, PRA was likewise determined before and after injecting furosemide. In 18 patients, including 13 from this latter group, PRA was determined before and after dialysis. It was found that: 1) In the group of non-dialysed patients, mean PRA rose significantly after the injection of furosemide. In dialysed patients it was not affected either by furosemide or by dialysis. 2) In non-dialysed patients, the ability of PRA to be stimulated by furosemide fell together with inulin clearance (Cin) in a significant hyperbolic relationship. 3) PRA changes in dialysed patients were indistinct and variable. A significant direct correlation was found between the absolute change in PRA after furosemide and after dialysis. These findings show that the degree of damage to the renal parenchyma must be taken into account when evaluating the response of PRA to furosemide stimulation. 相似文献

Several chronic inflammatory changes undergone during chronic haemodialysis are associated with increased pro-inflammatory cytokine production. Although generation of anaphylatoxins has been incriminated in the untoward effects of haemodialysis, it is still debated whether anaphylatoxins stimulate monocyte secretion of TNF-alpha and IL-1. We demonstrate that peripheral mononuclear cells isolated from healthy controls and cultured with complement-activated autologous serum or recombinant C5a induced high levels of IL-1, IL-1ra, IL-8 and MCP-1, low levels of TNFalpha and sTNFRII but no IL-10 and MIP-1alpha. Cytokine production by leukocytes was investigated by FACS analysis in six patients dialysed consecutively with three equivalent low permeability membranes known to activate the complement to different degrees: polysulfone (F6HPS), cellulose acetate (CA) and cuprophane (CP). Percentage of leukocytes expressing IL-1, IL-1ra, TNF-alpha and IL-8 is increased in patients dialysed with CP. Moreover, we show for the first time that haemodialysis is associated with the production of cytokines by circulating neutrophils. Predialysis plasma levels of MCP-1 and TNFRII did not increase during the dialysis session at the time when anaphylatoxin generation was highest. Dialysis with membranes that activate the complement to a high extent induce activation of leukocytes which may explain chronic complications associated with dialysing with CP. 相似文献

The phagocytic activity of peritoneal neutrophils was assessed using Bacto-Latex in 50 patients with chronic renal failure treated with intermittent peritoneal dialysis, and in 30 control patients with normal renal function. In the group of patients treated with peritoneal dialysis 20 were additionally investigated while developing peritonitis. A significant decrease in the phagocytic activity of neutrophils was observed in the both dialysed groups, as compared with control subjects. Moreover, the phagocytic activity was significantly lower in patients with peritonitis as compared with dialysed patients without this complication. 相似文献

Levels of the factor VIII complex were found to be raised in patients with chronic renal failure and further raised by regular dialysis. Increased fibrinogen concentrations were also found. These results suggest the existence of a prothrombotic state in uraemia that is exacerbated by haemodialysis. Ristocetin-induced platelet agglutination, however, was depressed in uraemia and worsened by dialysis. This defect may be transferred to normal platelets from dialysed uraemic plasma, suggesting the existence of an inhibitor of the interaction between factor VIII and platelet glycoprotein. These results may help to explain the anomaly of a prolonged bleeding time together with accelerated atherogenesis that is found in patients with uraemia receiving dialysis. 相似文献

Several indices of thyroid function were assessed in 74 patients with chronic renal failure. Sixty patients had undergone haemodialysis for varying periods. Within the first six months of haemodialysis treatment protein-bound iodine and total thyroxine (T4) levels rose, but after this T4 levels and the free thyroxine index fell progressively. Three out of the 12 patients who had undergone haemodialysis for longer than three years had subnormal T4 and supranormal thyrotrophin concentrations and a subnormal response to thyrotrophin stimulation. Lon-term haemodialysis may be a cause of biochemical hypothyroidism. 相似文献

The authors present data from a group of 55 patients suffering from chronic renal diseases. Twenty-two were treated by haemodialysis; the rest had serum creatinine levels ranging from normal to 950 mumol/l. The molar esterification rats [MER] and total cholesterol [TCH] values decreased parallel to the gradual extinction of renal function. A reduced fractional esterification rate [FER] was found in about two thirds of the dialysed patients and in about half of those whose kidney function was still relatively well preserved. It can thus be concluded that reduction of FER values indicative of a disturbance of cholesterol metabolism can already be detected in the early stages of chronic nephropathies. 相似文献

Cytokines modulate general and virus infection-related host immune responses. We have investigated cytokine responses in chronic renal disease patients with regard to haemodialysis and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Compared with healthy subjects with normal renal function (n=15), non-dialyzed/renal disease individuals without HCV infection (n=11) showed increased production of tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, interleukin (IL-)6, IL-10, interferon (IFN-)gamma and IL-12 by blood mononuclear cells (P<0.05). These inflammatory cytokine responses were abolished in haemodialysis patients (n=37;P<0.05), except for IL-12. This hyporesponsiveness in haemodialysis patients was more evident in stimulatory conditions, as shown by the consistent inhibition of IFN-gamma production, and the failure of exogenous IFN-gamma to prime for IL-12 inducibility (P<0.01). The disturbed cytokine response appeared to focus in the T-helper lymphocyte phenotype 1 (Th(1)) because the stimulation of IL-6 and IL-10 (Th(2)phenotype cytokines) was not impaired. The pattern of response was similar among haemodialysis patients with (n=24) or without (n=13) HCV infection. However, HCV-positive haemodialysis patients had a blunted TNF-alpha response (P<0.05) and failed to increase the stimulated IFN-gamma and IL-12 production (P<0.01) compared with chronic hepatitis C patients without renal disease (n=25). On the contrary, IL-10 stimulation was higher in HCV-positive haemodialysis patients (P<0.01). These results disclose the presence in haemodialysis patients of markedly abnormal general and HCV infection-related cytokine responses; the inhibitory alterations appear to affect predominantly the stimulated responses via the Th(1)subset and its relationship with monocyte response with possible pathogenic and therapeutic implications. 相似文献

Total white cell, neutrophil, and lymphocyte counts were compared in patients with chronic renal failure treated successively by conservative means (low-protein diet), regular haemodialysis, and renal allotransplantation. The lowest total white cell and neutrophil counts and the highest lymphocyte counts were found in patients on regular haemodialysis. A rapid fall in neutrophil count during the first half-hour of dialysis and a more gradual fall between the first and sixth hours were observed. Adherence of neutrophils and mononuclear cells to the cuprophane (PT 150) dialysis membrane has been shown. 相似文献

Forty-four patients with chronic renal failure on haemodialysis for four months to eight years were studied. All recieved intravenous iron dextran 100 mg on alternate weeks. Serum ferritin concentrations correlated well with body iron stores estimated by grading the bone marrow stainable iron. Altogether 34 patients showed increased bone marrow iron stores and serum ferritin concentrations greater than controls; four patients showed absence of iron in the marrow, and three of these had subnormal serum ferritin concentrations. Serum ferritin assay represents the best method of repeatedly monitoring the exact amount of iron therapy needed by patients with chronic renal failure, particularly those on regular haemodialysis. 相似文献

Among 39 patients treated by regular haemodialysis for four years or more pathological fractures and histological evidence of osteomalacia were significantly more common in those taking barbiturates. Out of 58 transplant recipients surveyed after one year, seven had osteomalacia; four of these had been taking phenobarbitone and phenytoin and one had taken barbiturates alone. Sedatives and other drugs such as phenobarbitone and phenytoin that induce hepatic microsomal enzymes should probably be avoided when possible in patients with chronic renal failure and after transplantation. 相似文献

During 1971-5, 72 episodes of acute renal failure were treated in 70 children aged up to 16 years. The commonest causes were renal hypoperfusion (31 cases), haemolytic-uraemic syndrome (12), glomerulonephritis (9), septicaemia (5), and congenital abnormalities (6). Though referral from other hospitals was generally prompt, 10 out of 51 patients had been observed for up to seven days before transfer. Dailysis was used in 44 cases, the most common complications of which were peritonitis in those treated with peritoneal dialysis and acute changes in fluid balance in those treated with haemodialysis. Altogether 37 patients fully recovered, 10 were discharged with chronically impaired renal function, 17 died, and six entered the dialysis and transplantation programme. The mortality fell from 33% in 1972 to 20% in later years, which was due solely to maintenance dialysis being available. Though all patients with irrevocable kidney failure who were suitable entered the dialysis and transplantation programme, with current financial restrictions we doubt whether we shall be able to find places for all such patients in the future. 相似文献

The shortage of resources for providing renal replacement makes it essential to reduce revenue costs wherever possible. Assuming that haemodialysis is likely to remain a mainstay of renal replacement, a policy of reusing the expensive disposable dialysers and blood lines could offer substantial cost savings. Such reuse has been shown to be safe and to maintain efficiency, but it must also take account of convenience to the patient, especially those dialysing at home. A survey of patients treated with home dialysis shows that the rate of reuse of the complete extracorporeal circuit was highest for those patients who had automated reuse systems. 相似文献

The aim of this paper was to evaluate the ocular findings in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) undergoing haemodialysis (HD). In 64 patients undergoing haemodialysis (30 female and 34 male), aged 24-83 years (mean 58 years) on haemodialysis 1-213 months (mean 47 months) complete ocular examination were performed: visual acuity (VA), intraocular pressure (IOP), biomicroscopic examination and fundoscopy. On right eye sixty-nine percent of patents had VA 0.6 or better, and on left eye 84% of patients had VA 0.6 or better. Mean IOP before dialysis was 15 mmHg and after dialysis was 14 mmHg. In 9 patients (14%) we found corneo-conjunctival calcium deposits. No correlation of ocular calcification and parathyroid hormone (PTH) level or calcium and phosphate product were observed. 39 (60%) patients had cataract. Hypertensive vascular changes were seen in 44 (68%) patients and in 6 (7%) patients age-related macular degeneration. Seven patients had diabetes mellitus and in 5 diabetic retinopathy was observed. Patients with CRF or who are receiving HD represent unique group of patients. Pathologic change could be found in many tissue and organs, therefore we suggest ocular examination more frequently in dialysis patients. 相似文献

In the first 30 minutes of haemodialysis, in patients with chronic renal failure, there is a dramatic fall in total neutrophil count in the peripheral blood. An hour after the start of dialysis this has returned to normal.We have carried out a series of experiments in an attempt to elucidate the cause of this neutropenia. Both the patient and the membranes of the dialyser appeared to be a necessary combination to produce these changes, which could not be induced by the infusion of blood or saline that had previously been in contact with the dialyser. The composition of the dialysing fluid was not related to the fall of white count, and this fall was repeated when the patient was connected to a second dialyser after recovering from the neutropenia caused by the first. It was only when reusing a kidney, by rinsing it out and resterilizing it, that the neutropenia could be modified, but this was not a constant finding. 相似文献

During a period of twenty years, the von Willebrand factor (VWf) biological activity was evaluated in 805 patients with vein thrombosis, diabetes mellitus, chronic renal failure and ischemic heart disease. The examined patients were 168 with vein thrombosis, 129 with diabetes mellitus, 412 with chronic renal failure (CRF), and 96 with ischemic heart disease. The biological activity was also determined in 104 haemodialysis patients using four different haemodialytic membranes: 30 on cuprophan membrane, 30 on polymethylmetacrylate membrane (PMMA), 24 on hemophane and 20 patients on polysulphone (PS) membrane. In 42 patients with arterio-venous fistula prone to thrombosis, the biological activity of the von Willebrand Factor was 178% in comparison to 106% in the control group. The biological activity of VWF was increased in patients with vein thrombosis (p < 0.02), in patients with diabetes mellitus (p < 0.01), CRF (p < 0.05), and in patients with ischemic heart disease (p < 0.01). The highest biological activity was found in patients on PMMA (p < 0.001), then cuprophan (p < 0.05) and hemophane membrane (p < 0.01), while the lowest increase of its concentration was noticed in patients on PS without statistical significance. In arteriovenous fistula prone to thrombosis patients biological activity of the von Willebrand Factor was significantly increased (p < 0.01). Our investigations show the importance of VWF as a marker of endothelial disfunction, a possible predictor of A-V fistula thrombosis, and a possible marker of haemodialysis membranes biocompatibility. 相似文献

Forty two adult patients who had been treated with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis for one to 142 weeks (mean (SD) 38 (36)) received a total of 44 allografted kidneys. Twenty one had been treated with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis for less than 26 weeks (mean 11 (8)) and the other 21 for longer than 26 weeks (mean 64 (35)). These two groups were compared with 55 patients who had been treated with haemodialysis and received a total of 63 grafts. In the group of patients treated with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis azathioprine and low dose prednisolone were used as the immunosuppressive regimen for 20 transplantations in 18 patients, and 24 patients receiving 24 grafts were treated with cyclosporin A and low dose prednisolone. In the group of patients treated with haemodialysis 38 patients receiving 43 grafts were treated with azathioprine and low dose prednisolone, and 20 patients receiving 20 grafts were treated with cyclosporin A and low dose prednisolone. Actuarial survival of patients and grafts at two years was 95% and 72%, respectively, in the continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis group compared with 89% and 58%, respectively, in the haemodialysis group. No difference was found in graft survival between short term treatment with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (72% graft survival) and long term treatment (65% graft survival). In conclusion, continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis is suitable treatment for patients awaiting renal transplantation. 相似文献

Serum aluminium concentrations and biopsy specimens of bone were examined in 56 patients with end stage chronic renal failure receiving maintenance haemodialysis. Deposits of aluminium in bone specimens were often associated with low bone formation with or without osteomalacia. Serum aluminium concentrations of greater than 3.7 mumol/l (10 micrograms/100 ml) indicated a high probability of deposits of aluminium in bone specimens, although high serum concentrations did not predict the type of renal bone disease. Biopsy of the bone is the best method of detecting aluminium intoxication of bone. A serum aluminium concentration of 3.7 mumol/l should be the threshold beyond which bone biopsy should be performed to confirm an overload of aluminium and identify histological bone changes induced by aluminium. 相似文献

Seventy-seven children with chronic renal failure were examined at one hospital in the province of Quebec between 1970 and 1975; this represents an incidence of 2.5 per million population per year. The entities responsible for chronic renal failure were urinary tract malformation (in 36%), chronic glomerulonephritis (in 22%), congenital renal parenchymal malformation (in 21%) and hereditary nephropathy (in 13%). The evolution of chronic renal failure in children with either vesicoureteral reflux or a posterior urethral valve seemed to be related more to the initial severity of the disease than to the age at the time of diagnosis. Hence any screening program designed to detect kidney disease in schoolchildren would not prevent chronic renal failure, since at that age renal parenchymal damage seems to be irreversible. The manner in which chronic glomerulonephritis evolved depended on whether the nephrotic syndrome was present and on the type of histologic lesion. Children with congenital renal hypoplasia or dysplasia often presented with seizures due to hypertensive encephalopathy without obvious symptoms or signs of pre-existing renal disease. Among patients with familial nephropathy many of those with cystinosis underwent successful renal transplantation early in life. 相似文献

Short-term effects of recombinant human erythropoietin on serum levels of transforming growth factor beta-1, interleukin 1-alpha, interleukin 3, interferon gamma, and tumour necrosis factor alpha in patients with chronic renal failure on chronic haemodialysis were investigated. Recombinant human erythropoietin was applied subcutaneously in a dose of 75 IU/kg on 19 patients. Serum levels of transforming growth factor beta-1, interleukin 1-alpha, interleukin 3, interferon gamma, tumour necrosis factor alpha and erythropoietin, red blood cell parameters: red blood cell count, haemoglobin, haematocrit, and erythrocyte indices were determined before and after recombinant human erythropoietin single application. Transforming growth factor beta-1 serum levels were decreased after recombinant human erythropoietin (22.70 +/- 1.51 ng/ml versus 18.77 +/- 1.70 ng/ml (p < 0.01). None of the other investigated parameters was influenced significantly by recombinant human erythropoietin. Recombinant human erythropoietin in patients with chronic renal failure on chronic haemodialysis may influence anaemia not only through its stimulating effect on erythropoiesis, but also by direct oxygen-independent decrease of at least one of the negative regulators of erythropoiesis--the transforming growth factor beta. 相似文献
