Exercise Training and Depression in ESRD: A Review
(2013)
Depression, a mental disorder with a high personal, societal, and economic impact, affects at least 20-30% of patients receiving hemodialysis therapy. It is associated with a high mortality rate, low adherence to medication, ...
Restless legs syndrome in hemodialysis patients: an epidemiologic survey in Greece
(2013)
Background: Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder characterized by an uncontrolled need to move extremities accompanied by unpleasant sensations, which frequently leads to sleep disturbances. In hemodialysis ...
Perilipin-1 in Hemodialyzed Patients: Association With History of Coronary Heart Disease and Lipid Profile
(2012)
Perilipin-1 surrounds lipid droplets in both adipocytes and in atheroma plaque foam cells and controls access of lipases to the lipid core. In hemodialysis (HD) patients, dyslipidemia, malnutrition, inflammation and ...
Endothelin-1 Acutely Reduces the Permeability of Visceral Sheep Peritoneum In Vitro Through Both Endothelin-A and Endothelin-B Receptors
(2013)
Mesothelium is an important part of the peritoneal barrier for water and ion transport, essential for effective peritoneal dialysis (PD). Peritoneal fibrosis has been associated with PD treatment failure. Endothelin-1 ...
Serum copper and ferroportin in monocytes of hemodialysis patients are both decreased but unassociated
(2014)
Disturbed iron homeostasis contributes to resistance to recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEpo) in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Although increased hepcidin, which downregulates the iron exporter ferroportin, had been ...
Arginase type I as a marker of coronary heart disease in hemodialysis patients
(2011)
Cardiovascular disease, and mainly coronary heart disease (CHD), is the leading cause of death in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Non-traditional risk factors may play an important role in this population. Arginase is known ...
Infections in hemodialysis: a concise review - Part 1: bacteremia and respiratory infections
(2011)
Hemodialysis (HD) patients are particularly predisposed to infections. It seems that the HD procedure per se as well as disturbances in both innate and adaptive immunity significantly contribute to this susceptibility. ...
Uremic Versus Idiopathic Restless Legs Syndrome: Impact on Aspects Related to Quality of Life
(2012)
Restless legs syndrome (RLS) affects both the general population and patients with chronic renal failure. Even though it has been suggested that all forms of RLS share a common pathophysi-ology, not much evidence exists ...
Uremic myopathy: is oxidative stress implicated in muscle dysfunction in uremia?
(2015)
Renal failure is accompanied by progressive muscle weakness and premature fatigue, in part linked to hypokinesis and in part to uremic toxicity. These changes are associated with various detrimental biochemical and ...
