In uremic patients, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) loses its anti-inflammatory features and can even become pro-inflammatory due to an altered protein composition. In chronic kidney disease (CKD), impaired functions of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNLs) contribute to inflammation and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. This study investigated the effect of HDL from CKD and hemodialysis (HD) patients on the CD14 expression on PMNLs. HDL was isolated using a one-step density gradient centrifugation. Isolation of PMNLs was carried out by discontinuous Ficoll-Hypaque density gradient centrifugation. CD14 surface expression was quantified by flow cytometry. The activity of the small GTPase Rac1 was determined by means of an activation pull-down assay. HDL increased the CD14 surface expression on PMNLs. This effect was more pronounced for HDL isolated from uremic patients. The acute phase protein serum amyloid A (SAA) caused higher CD14 expression, while SAA as part of an HDL particle did not. Lipid raft disruption with methyl-β-cyclodextrin led to a reduced CD14 expression in the absence and presence of HDL. HDL from healthy subjects but not from HD patients decreased the activity of Rac1. Considering the known anti-inflammatory effects of HDL, the finding that even HDL from healthy subjects increased the CD14 expression was unexpected. The pathophysiological relevance of this result needs further investigation.

Background. Though different primary studies have reported the burden of chronic kidney disease among diabetes patients, their results have demonstrated substantial variation regarding its prevalence in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study aimed to estimate the pooled prevalence of chronic kidney disease and its associated factors among diabetes patients in Ethiopia. Method. PubMed, African Journals Online, Google Scholar, Scopus, and Wiley Online Library were searched to identify relevant studies. The I2 statistic was used to check heterogeneity across the included studies. A random-effects model was applied to estimate the pooled effect size across studies. A funnel plot and Egger’s regression test were used to determine the presence of publication bias. All statistical analyses were performed using STATA™ version 14 software. Result. In this meta-analysis, a total of 12 studies with 4,075 study participants were included. The estimated prevalence of CKD among diabetes patients was found to be 35.52% (95% CI: 25.9–45.45, I2 = 96.3%) for CKD stages 1 to 5 and 14.5% (95% CI: 10.5–18.49, I2 = 91.1%) for CKD stages 3 to 5. Age greater than 60 years (OR = 2.99; 95% CI: 1.56–5.73), female sex (OR = 1.68; 95% CI: 1.04–2.69), duration of diabetes >10 years (OR = 2.76; 95% CI: 1.38–5.51), body mass index >30 kg/m2 (OR = 2.06; 95% CI: 1.41–3.00), type 2 diabetes (OR = 2.54; 95% CI: 1.73–3.73), poor glycemic control (OR = 2.01; 95% CI: 1.34–3.02), fasting blood glucose >150 mg/dl (OR = 2.58; 95% CI: 1.79–3.72), high density lipoprotein >40 mg/dl (OR = 0.48; 95% CI: 0.30–0.85–25), systolic blood pressure>140 mmHg (OR = 3.26; 95% CI: 2.24–4.74), and diabetic retinopathy (OR = 4.54; CI: 1.08–25) were significantly associated with CKD. Conclusion. This study revealed that the prevalence of chronic kidney disease remains high among diabetes patients in Ethiopia. This study found that a long duration of diabetes, age>60 years, diabetic retinopathy, female sex, family history of kidney disease, poor glycemic control, systolic blood pressure, overweight, and high level of high-density lipoprotein were associated with chronic kidney disease among diabetic patients. Therefore, situation-based interventions and context-specific preventive strategies should be developed to reduce the prevalence and risk factors of chronic kidney disease among diabetes patients.

Dyslipidemia is a common complication of chronic kidney disease. Dyslipidemia itself is a common risk for a cardiovascular disease, which is the leading cause of death in chronic kidney disease. This study aims to identify the relationship of chronic kidney disease stage 4 and 5 with the incidence of dyslipidemia at Fatmawati General Hospital in the period of 2016. Design cross-sectional with simple random sampling technique. Data were collected by looking at the patient's medical records. Respondents are 80 people. The study population were all patients diagnosed with chronic kidney disease at Fatmawati Central General Hospital in 2016. The results showed that most chronic kidney disease stage 4 has normal level of low density lipoprotein as many 22 people (73.33%) while at stage 5 most have high level of low density lipoprotein high as many 36 people (72%). High density lipoprotein obtained in patients with chronic kidney disease stage 4 mostly had normal level as many 20 people (66.67%) for stage 5 mostly had low level as many 33 people (66%). Mean lipid values of triglyceride X̄ = 152,36, high density lipoprotein X̄ = 39,36 and low density lipoprotein X̄ = 145,01. Result of bivariate analysis with chi square test showed significant relationship of chronic kidney disease stage 4 and 5 with incidence of dyslipidemia (p = 0,002).

Abstract Background: High indoxyl sulfate (IS) levels and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) levels are both risk factors of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, the connection between which has not been clearly clarified. This study aimed to explore the relationship between IS and HDL-c levels in early stages of CKD population. Methods: Patients of CKD stage 1-3 were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Correlations between HDL-c and IS were investigated among various clinicopathological variables.Results: A total of 205 CKD patients (96 men) with a mean age of 43.3 years old were included in this research. There were 96 patients (46 men) in CKD stage1 and 109 (50 men) in CKD stage 2 or stage 3. IS levels were significantly higher in CKD 2+3 group (1.50±1.74μg/ml vs 0.94±0.66μg/ml, p=0.007), while HCL-c levels were lower (1.19±0.39mmol/L vs 1.33±0.45 mmol/L, p=0.017) compared to CKD 1 group. Among all the patients, a negative correlation was observed between IS and HDL-c levels (r=-0.244, p=0.001). IS level was an independent risk factor for low HDL-c (<1.04mmol/L) incidence even after controlling for potential confounders (OR=1.63, 95% CI: 1.11-2.39, p=0.013). IS and HDL-c were both risk factors for predicting CKD stage 3. Conclusions: Metabolic disorder of HDL-c occurs in early CKD stages, probably attributed by increased IS level. Early management of dyslipidemia and uremic toxin retention is important for delaying disease progression and preventing cardiovascular events.
