The prognostic value of oxidative stress and inflammation in Chinese hemodialysis patients.
Renal Failure 2017 November
BACKGROUND: There is limited information about oxidative stress and inflammation on the mortality of Chinese hemodialysis (HD) patients.
SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A total of 177 HD patients and 35 healthy controls were enrolled. Their demographic information, clinical characteristics, oxidant and inflammation markers were compared. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to assess the risk factors for mortality.
RESULTS: Twenty-seven (15.3%) HD patients died during the one-year follow-up. The mean age, age ≥70 years, serum level of cardiac troponin T (cTnT), malondialdehyde (MDA) > 5 nmol/L, as well as CRP >10 mg/L and the level of interleukin (IL)-6 were significantly different between the nonsurvival and survival HD patients. Multivariate Cox's regression analysis identified age, age ≥70 years, cTnT, and IL-6 were independent predictors of mortality in HD patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Age, age ≥70 years, cTnT, and IL-6 were independent predictors of mortality in Chinese HD patients. Elevated IL-6 level, instead of MDA, was predictive of poor outcome in Chinese hemodialysis patients.
