RESUMO
Objective:To explore the effects of dietary phosphate restriction education on serum phosphorus level, dietary phosphate intake and the knowledge of hyperphosphatemia in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.Methods:This study was a retrospective cohort study. A total of 116 hemodialysis patients in Huashan Hospital, Huadong Hospital and Tongji Hospital from October 2019 to December 2020 were enrolled in this study. They were divided into short-term group (84 cases) and long-term group (32 cases). The short-term group did not receive education or received education≤60 minutes. Meanwhile, the long-term group received education>60 minutes. Serum phosphorus level, dietary phosphate intake and knowledge of hyperphosphatemia were compared between the two groups after 4 weeks.Results:At baseline, age [64(56, 69) years old vs 65(60, 73) years old, Z=-1.493, P=0.136], the proportion of males [58.3%(49/84) vs 56.3%(18/32), χ2=0.041, P=0.839], dialysis age [55(26, 130) months vs 53(20, 132) months, Z=-0.062, P=0.951], body mass index, diabetes history, single-pool Kt/V, proportion of calctriol used, blood calcium, blood phosphorus, intact parathyroid hormone and dietary protein, dietary phosphorus and dietary phosphorus protein ratio had no statistical significance between short-term group and long-term group (all P>0.05). Adequate dietary phosphate restriction education reduced dietary phosphate intake [777.98(653.81, 943.16) mg/d vs 896.56(801.51, 1 015.51) mg/d, Z=-2.903, P=0.004], phosphate/protein ratio [13.16(11.52, 14.21) mg/g vs 15.27(13.31, 17.48) mg/g, Z=-3.929, P<0.001] and serum phosphorus level [(1.42±0.37) mmol/L vs (1.85±0.44) mmol/L, t=4.984, P<0.001]. Meanwhile, such education significantly improved achievement rate of serum phosphorus (62.5% vs 41.7%, χ2=4.034, P=0.045). In addition, patients in long-term group answered more questions correctly (completely correct plus partially correct) about the causes (93.8% vs 72.6%, χ2=6.120, P=0.013), poor prognosis (78.1% vs 52.4%, χ2=6.372, P=0.012) of hyperphosphatemia as well as the types of food with high phosphate (65.6% vs 52.4%, χ2=1.650, P=0.199). Conclusion:Adequate dietary phosphate restriction education reduces serum phosphorus level and dietary phosphate intake, and improves the knowledge of hyperphosphatemia in MHD patients.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the risk factor of renal anemia in maintenance hemodialysis patients (MHD) and the association of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic (NT-proBNP) level with renal anemia.Methods:Patients who received MHD for more than 3 months at Huashan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University from August 2018 to November 2018 were selected as the subjects. The patients were divided into anemia group and non-anemia group according to the hemoglobin level. The patients' general data, the laboratory examination and dialysis related data during the observation period were collected. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between anemia indicators, dialysis-related indicators and blood NT-proBNP levels. Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for anemia in MHD patients.Results:A total of 160 patients with MHD were included in this study, aged (63.11±11.35) years. There were 79 males (49.4%) and 81 females (50.6%). The dialysis age was (118.01±82.32) months, hemoglobin was (110.09±13.48) g/L, and the median NT-proBNP was 3 985 ng/L. There were 73 cases (45.6%) in anemia group and 87 cases (54.4%) in non-anemic group, and NT-proBNP levels were significantly higher in anemia group than that in the non-anemia group ( t=-3.714, P<0.001). Hemoglobin levels were positively correlated with weekly dialysis time ( r=0.228) and albumin ( r=0.349), and negatively correlated with NT-proBNP levels ( r=-0.318). Hematocrit was positively correlated with weekly dialysis time ( r=0.283), serum calcium ( r=0.317), phosphorus ( r=0.264) and albumin ( r=0.513) with significance (all P<0.05). Univariate regression analysis showed that the level of ln (NT-proBNP) was negatively correlated with hemoglobin ( P<0.001). Stepwise multiple linear regression results showed that low albumin level and high NT-proBNP level were independent risk factors for renal anemia in MHD patients. Conclusions:The increase level of NT-proBNP in MHD patients is independently associated with the decrease level of hemoglobin. Low albumin level and high NT-proBNP level are risk factors for renal anemia, suggesting that the treatment of renal anemia needs to consider improving the factors such as malnutrition and high volume.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Three-dimensional printing technology is a new technology which can quickly and accurately transform the virtual computer-aided design into the three-dimensional physical prototypes. Three-dimensional printing physical model method can replace the method of traditional preoperative planning and repair surgical simulation, with the characteristic of repeatable, which has been deepened day after day in clinical application of spine surgery. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the application status of three-dimensional printing technology in spine surgery and look forward to its future development directions. METHODS: The articles regarding the application of three-dimensional printing technology on clinical applications in spine surgery were retrieved from PubMed databases, Google Scholar, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Wanfang Database from January 2000 to July 2015. The key words were 3D printing technology, rapid prototyping technology, spine, vertebra, department of orthopedics, fracture, joint, hand and foot, bone tumor, trauma, cervical vertebrae, thoracic vertebrae, lumbar vertebrae, sacral vertebrae, pedicle of vertebral arch, vertebral body, intervertebral disc, and clinical application. A total of 50 articles with a good representation were selected and discussed after repetitive studies and reviews were excluded. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The three-dimensional printing technique has been applied in preoperative diagnosis, individualized orthosis customerization, the communication between doctors and patients, teaching, the formulation of individualized and high-accurate repairing plan, intraoperative navigation and individualized implant customization. These results suggest that with the rapid development of medical imaging, digital medicine and technologies of the cel and tissue culture and new materials, three-dimensional printing technology wil have a wide range of applications in spine surgery.
