Red blood cell (RBC) death could contribute to anemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Recent observational research has suggested a relationship between RBC death (eryptosis) and hypoxemia in hemodialysis patients. Thus, we studied the isolated and joint effects of a uremic In addition to causing uremic symptoms, uremic toxins accelerate the progression of renal failure. To elucidate the pathophysiology of uremic states, we investigated the effect of indoxyl sulfate (IS), a representative uremic toxin, on oxygen metabolism in tubular cells. We demonstrated an increase
Chronic hypoxia in the tubulointerstitium serves as a final common pathway in progressive renal disease. Circumstantial evidence suggests that hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1 in the ischemic tubules may be functionally inhibited in a chronic kidney disease (CKD) milieu. In this study, we
Alterations in respiratory drive, mechanics, muscle function, and gas exchange are frequent if not invariable consequences of uremia. Pulmonary dysfunction may be the direct result of circulating uremic toxins or may result indirectly from volume overload, anemia, immune suppression, extraosseous
Oxygen is very important to the existence of life. Oxygen deficiency, defined as hypoxia, elicits adaptive responses in cells and tissues. Lower oxygen concentration can cause the alteration of renal function, affects the maintenance of a balance of the body fluids, electrolytes, pH, and blood
BACKGROUND
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased risk for cardiovascular diseases (CVD). We hypothesized that inadequate angiogenic response in uremic patients could result from dysfunction of bone marrow-derived stromal cells [mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)].
METHODS
We
Experimental uremia created by obstructing the urethra of 7 cross-bred bulls was associated with significant (P less than 0.05) increases in PCV, blood urea nitrogen concentration, arterial and venous pH and PCO2, arterial bicarbonate, and base excess. Total serum protein concentration decreased
This study aimed to evaluate the onset characteristics of patients with uremia undergoing maintenance hemodialysis complicated with COVID-19, so as to improve the understanding, diagnosis, and treatment.26 cases were confirmed cases of COVID-19. Confirmed patients with COVID-19 undergoing
In 18 patients with chronic uremia the effect of 4 hour hemodialysis on VC, FEV1, PEF, MEF25, MEF50, MEF75, PaO2 and PaCO2 were analysed. Significant falls in PaO2 and PaCO2 were found after ending the four hour long hemodialysis. Only nonsignificant changes in the other parameters were observed.
Little is known of the effect of chronic hemodialysis on lung function. In six patients with chronic uremia, we performed pulmonary function tests, sampled arterial blood, and measured the ventilatory response to carbon dioxide inhalation before and after routine hemodialysis. Patients were in the
Patients with uremia usually develop hypoxemia during hemodialysis therapy. It has been thought by most of the investigators that the development of hypoxemia is related to the impropriety of biocompatibility of the dialyzer membranes. Besides, acetate dialysate through metabolism may cause a
BACKGROUND
Nocturnal hemodialysis (NHD) alleviates uremia-related sleep apnea, a condition characterized by increased sympathetic activity and diminished heart rate (HR) variability. We tested the hypothesis that NHD reduces both hypoxemia and sympathetic neural contributions to HR variability
