ABSTRACT
Objective· To observe the progression of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients,and to analyse risk factors of the progression of LVH.Methods· Stable MHD patients of Ruijin Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were enrolled in July 2012.These patients were followed for 1 year.Clinical characteristics and laboratory indices were collected at baseline and 1-year followup.Left ventricular mass (LVM) was evaluated by ultrasonic cardiogram.Left ventricular mass index (LVMI) increased more than 5% was defined as LVH progression.Results · Totally 71 MHD patients were enrolled in this study.44 patients were males,with median age 55.9 years old,median dialysis vintage 152.1 months.22 (30.99%) patients had LVH at enrollment.A significant higher percentage of MHD patients used calcium-channel binder (CCB) and angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) in LVH group,while a significant higher NT-proBNP level was also showed in LVH group.31 patients had LVH progression while 40 patients didn't after 1 year.Patients in progression group had significant higher levels of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).In univariable and multivariable Logistic regression,total cholesterol and LDL-C were independent risk factors of LVH progression (OR=2.515,95% CI 1.219-5.910,P=0.013;OR=1.950,95% CI 1.127-3.375,P=0.017).Conclusion · LVH is one of the common cardiovascular complications in MHD patients.The proportion of use of antihypertensive drugs is higher in the patients with LVH.Higher LDL-C and total cholesterol levels are risk factors for the progression of LVH.
