Association of adequate dietary phosphate restriction education and phosphorus management in maintenance hemodialysis patients / 中华肾脏病杂志

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.

Latent class analysis of symptom characteristics in young and middle-aged peritoneal dialysis patients / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective:To classify the symptom characteristics of young and middle-aged peritoneal dialysis patients and to explore the differences of demographic functional status and social function of patients with different symptom categories.Methods:A total of 179 peritoneal dialysis patients from 3 peritoneal dialysis centers in Shanghai were investigated from December 2019 to August 2020 by General Information Questionnaire, Peritoneal Dialysis Symptom Distress Scale. Latent class analysis was used to classify young and middle-aged peritoneal dialysis patients according to symptom characteristics. Multiple Logistic regression was used to explore the differences of demographic and disease characteristics of different categories of patients.Results:Peritoneal dialysis patients could be divided into three potential categories according to symptom characteristics ( P<0.05). According to the conditional probability of each category, they were named "low symptom group" (111 cases,62.0%), "high psychological-moderate physical symptom group" (22 cases, 12.3%), "high symptom group" (46 cases,25.7%). There were differences in working status ( OR=0.029, P<0.01), education level ( OR=152.799, P<0.01), duration ( OR=81.307, P<0.05), diabetic nephropathy ( OR=80.619, P<0.01) and CCI score ( OR=91.188, P<0.01) distribution among different potential categories of young and middle-aged peritoneal dialysis patients. Conclusions:There are three types of potential symptoms in young and middle-aged patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis. In clinical practice, medical staff should focus on the psychological status of young and middle-aged patients with low educational background and early stage of dialysis, and encourage them to return to work; at the same time, they should regularly evaluate the symptom burden of patients with diabetic nephropathy and high complication index peritoneal dialysis patients, in order to provide targeted intervention measures to prevent the progression of the disease.

Association between anemia and serum N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic level in maintenance hemodialysis patients / 中华肾脏病杂志

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.

Correlation between resilience, anxiety and depression among donors during pediatric living donor liver transplantation / 中华器官移植杂志

Objective To explore the postoperative psychological status of donors during pediatric living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) to elucidate the correlation between resilience,anxiety and depression.Methods Random sampling was employed for selecting 60 pediatric LDLT donors undergoing LDLT from September 2014 to February 2019.They were requested to answer a questionnaire.The questionnaire concluded general information,self-rating anxiety scale (SAS),selfrating depression scale (SDS) and Chinese version of Resilience Scale.Results The score of anxiety was (46.06 ± 10.06) and depression was (50.32 ± 11.49).Both values were higher than those of Chinese norm.The score of resilience was (59.55 ± 14.62).And the total score of resilience and the score of each dimension were negatively correlated with anxiety and depression (P＜0.01).Conclusions The postoperative anxiety and depression level of donors during LDLT are higher than the ordinary.Resilience is negatively correlated with the level of anxiety and depression.The lower level of resilience,the higher anxiety and depression of donors during LDLT.For clinicians,appropriate intervention measures should be taken for improving the resilience,reducing negative emotions and boosting the quality-of-life of donors during LDLT.

Analysis on the occurrence and influencing factors of frequent intradialytic hypotension in hemodialysis patients / 中国实用护理杂志

0bjective To investigate the occurrence of frequent intradialytic hypotension in hemodialysis patients and Analyzed influencing factors. Methods The 1 933 hemodialysis sections of 156 maintenance hemodialysis patients in the Huashan hospital affiliated to Fudan University in Shanghai were selected, and divided into frequent intradialytic hypotension and non- frequent intradialytic hypotension depending on whether the incidence of intradialytic hypotension is greater than 20%, and the patients' dialysis data and biochemical examination data are collected for the analysis of influencing factors. Results The incidence of frequent IDH in maintenance hemodialysis patients was 62.18%(97/156), and the pre-dialysis blood pressure of frequent IDH patients were higher than non-frequent IDH patients, frequent IDH patients: (134.02±21.01)/(73.85±10.73) mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), non-frequent IDH patients: (124.66 ± 17.89)/(69.32 ± 10.65) mmHg, (t=-2.851,-2.558, P＜0.05), but lower in post-dialysis, frequent IDH patients:(114.91±19.21)/(68.38±11.41) mmHg, non-frequent IDH patients: (127.90± 20.58)/(74.46±11.79) mmHg, (t=3.989, 3.189, P＜0.01). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that hemoglobin ( OR=0.354, P=0.015) and high-density lipoprotein ( OR=0.155, P=0.003) were protective factors for the occurrence of frequent IDH, and ultrafiltration volume/weight ( OR=6.021, P=0.002) and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide ( OR=2.687, P=0.020) were risk factors. Conclusions The incidence of frequent IDH in hemodialysis patients is high, and patients with high filtration rate, high N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide, low hemoglobin and high density lipoprotein should be paid close attention to. It is recommended to regularly monitor patients' biochemical indicators, strengthen blood pressure monitoring for high-risk groups, and timely deal with the symptoms of low blood pressure.

Early failure of arteriovenous fistula and its related factors and nursing / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective The aim of the study was to investigate the early failure of newly created arteriovenous fistula(AVF) in patients on maintenance hemodialysis and the factors responsible for the failure. Methods The clinical data were retrospectively reviewed, preoperative examination and laboratory biochemical indicators of 88 patients with newly created AVF for maintenance hemodialysis in our hospital through Hospital Management Information System and telephone follow-ups. Binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the protective factors for early failure. Results In 88 patients, early failure of the AVF was found in 15 patients. Twenty-three factors, including gender, were involved in statistical analysis. There were statistical differences between the two groups in hypertension (χ2=7.689, P=0.006) and whether they had early referral to nephrologists (χ2=5.334, P=0.021). Further regression analysis showed hypertension ( OR=0.192, 95% CI=0.0538-0.692, P=0.012) was protective factor and without early referral ( OR=3.651, 95% CI=1.068-18.302, P=0.039) was the risk factor of early failure. Conclusion This study shows that no early referral and combined hypertension is an important factor affecting the early failure, emphasizing the clinical work, for the diagnosis of patients with chronic kidney disease, early nephrological referral should be established, and blood pressure monitoring should be done to help reduce the incidence of complications.
