The Impact

Background With an increased focus on native AV fistula creation in hemodialysis patients, a transposed brachiobasilic fistula (tBBF) is becoming an increasingly utilized option. This study describes the outcomes of tBBFs in a chronic hemodialysis population. In particular, we focus on the incidence and location of stenosis, and review the impact of angioplasty on these lesions. Methods A retrospective cohort study using all patients with a tBBF created between January 2001 and December 2004. Results Of the 543 fistulas created during the study period, 93 were tBBFs. The mean age of patients was 65 years, 56% were male and 55% were diabetic. Stenosis occurred in 54% (46/85) of fistulas; the location of stenosis in the majority (74%) was at or near the area of basilic vein transposition and 50% of fistulas with stenosis in this location required three or more angioplasties. Primary (unassisted) patency was 42% at one year in this cohort. Secondary patency was 68% at 1 year and 58% and 53% at 2 and 3 years respectively. Conclusion In a cohort of hemodialysis patients who received a tBBF, we describe a reasonable primary and secondary patency rate and a high rate of stenosis at the point of transposition of the basilic vein. Such stenosis usually requires multiple percutaneous or surgical interventions to ensure or reestablish conduit patency. Further study is required regarding the optimal surgical technique, monitoring, and treatment of stenosis of this fistula type including the utility of repeat angioplasty.

Objective: Iron deficiency (ID) is a frequent complication in end stage renal insufficiency. These patients have to be diagnosed and treated to reduce the prevalence of anemia. Functional iron deficiency (FID) is a situation that can disrupt biochemical iron tests and mask an eventual association with ID. In this study, we tried to prove the ability of extended parameters of red cells and reticulocytes to diagnose ID without being influenced by FID. Design and methods: 164 chronic hemodialysis patients (CHP) in end stage renal disease were enrolled. Research parameters of red cells and reticulocytes determined on ADVIA 2120i were studied in the diagnosis of ID associated or not with chronic inflammation. Results: Parameters such as corpuscular hemoglobin of mature red cells (CHm), corpuscular hemoglobin of reticulocytes (CHr), cellular concentration of hemoglobin in mature red cells (CHCMm), cellular concentration of hemoglobin in reticulocytes (CHCMr) and percentage of microcytic and hypochromic red cells (HYMI) showed a high sensitivity to diagnose ID. However, the distinction of combined iron deficiency (CID) from other entities was not possible with all parameters. In chronic inflammatory states, the decrease of CHm, CHCMm and CHCMr with the rise of percentage hypochromic mature red cells (HYPOm) and reticulocytes (HYPOr) is in favor of CID. So, determination of inflammatory state is needed to complete research parameters of blood count in CHP. Conclusion: Extended erythrocyte and reticulocyte parameters can be useful to check iron status in CHP.

Moderate Elevation

AbstractSeveral biomarkers are associated with mortality in hemodialysis patients. In particular, elevated cardiac troponin T and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) are strong predictors of mortality; however, less is known about cardiac troponin I (cTnI). Elevated troponin I is detected in many hemodialysis patients, but the association of moderate elevations with mortality is unclear.The relation between mortality and cTnI, using a high-sensitivity cTnI assay, as well as BNP and C-reactive protein (CRP) was evaluated in 206 chronic hemodialysis patients.Median follow-up was 28 months with a total mortality of 35%. Mortality was significantly associated with elevated cTnI, BNP and CRP. Even patients with only moderate elevation of cTnI (0.01–0.10 μg/L) showed 2.5-fold increased mortality. Interestingly, hazard ratios for mortality for single (random) measurements were comparable to those for mean/median measurements. Subsequently, subgroup analysis based on combined markers was performed. Patients with both cTnI <0.01 μg/L and BNP in the first quartile had 100% survival. Patients with either cTnI <0.01 μg/L or BNP in the lowest quartile had significantly lower mortality (12% and 13%, respectively) than patients with BNP levels in the second quartile or higher and cTnI of 0.01–0.05 μg/L and patients with cTnI ≥0.05 μg/L (mortality 46 and 58%, respectively).A combination of moderate elevation of cTnI and BNP provided additional prognostic value. A single measurement of these biomarkers performed comparably to the mean/median of multiple measurements.
