Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the primary cause of morbidity and premature mortality in chronic kidney disease (CKD). The aim of this study was to assess the frequency of cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular risk in haemodialysis population for chronic kidney disease.Methods: This was a retrospective and descriptive study for a period of 4 years from January 2016 to December 2019, performed at hemodialysis unit in Soavinandriana Hospital Center Antananarivo, including all patients, following regular hemodialysis for chronic renal failure. Demographic data, cardiovascular disease, cardiovascular risk factors, aetiology of nephropathy, haemoglobin <11 g/dl, phosphocalcic metabolism disorders and uricemia were analyzed.Results: Seventy-six patients were recorded, including 46 males (60.52%) and were women (39.47%). The average age was 59.98 years old. The risk factors of cardiovascular disease were smoking (22.36%), diabetes mellitus (46.05%), high blood pressure (71.05%), dyslipidemia (47.36%) and obesity (11.84%). Fifty-eight patients (76.31%) had a high cardiovascular risk factor. Seventy patients (22.36%) had had a history of cardiovascular diseases. Fifty-nine patients had a haemoglobin concentration under 11 g/dl (77.63%). There were 23 cases of hypocalcemia (30.26%), 22 cases of hyperphosphatemia (28.94%) and 37 cases of hyperuricemia (48.68%).Conclusions: There was a high cardiovascular risk factor in this study population. Early detection of cardiovascular diseases should be done in patients who have a high-risk factor of cardiovascular disease to decrease the mortality rate in chronic kidney diseases population. The appropriate management of modifiable risk factors is important to improve the survival of this study patients.

Abstract Introduction. Hemodialysis (HD) patients have higher mortality rate than the general population. Recent studies indicate a significant role of non-cardiovascular risk factors in for mortality in HD patients. Leptin is protein hormone and may indicate malnutrition in HD patients. Its role in mortality in these patients is being examined. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between serum leptin levels and non-cardiovascular risk factors and relationship between leptin level and mortality in HD patients. Methods The prospective study included 93 patients on maintenance HD and follow-up period was 12 months. We measured leptin level and evaluated non-cardiovascular risk factors: nutritional status, anemia, volemia, parameters of mineral and bone disorder. Results. Out of 93 patients 9 died during study and 1 underwent kidney transplantation. Malnutrition and hypervolemia were two main non-cardiovascular risk factors among deceased subjects. Leptin showed a significant direct correlation with nutritional BMI (r = 0.72, P <0.001), fat tissue index (r = 0.74, P <0.001) and statistically significant inverse correlation with leantissue index (r = -0.349, P <0.05) and inverse correlation with volemic parameters (overhydration / extracellular water ratio (r = -0.38, P <0.001), but no association with anemia and mineral bone parameters was observed. Elevated leptin levels were associated with better survival. However, no statistically significant difference in survival rates was observed between the study groups (Log-Rank P =0.214, Breslow P =0.211, Tarone-Ware P=0.212). Conclusion: Deceased patients had significantly lower leptin values. Leptin was associated with two non-cardiovascular risk factors for mortality: malnutrition and hypervolemia.
