Zhu Y, Lai Y, Hu Y, Fu Y, Zhang Z, Lin N, Huang W, Zheng L. The mechanisms underlying acute myocardial infarction in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis. Biomed Pharmacother 2024; 177:117050. [PMID: 38968794 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2024.117050] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2024] [Revised: 06/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/26/2024] [Indexed: 07/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Hemodialysis is one of the main treatments for patients with end-stage kidney disease. Epidemiological data has shown that acute myocardial infarction (AMI) accounts for the main reason for death in patients with CKD under hemodialysis therapy. Immune dysfunction and changes in metabolism (including a high level of inflammatory cytokines, a disorder of lipid and mineral ion homeostasis, accumulation of uremic toxins et al.) during CKD can deteriorate stability of atherosclerotic plaque and promote vascular calcification, which are exactly the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the occurrence of AMI. Meanwhile, the hemodialysis itself also has adverse effects on lipoprotein, the immune system and hemodynamics, which contribute to the high incidence of AMI in these patients. This review aims to summarize the mechanisms and further promising methods of prevention and treatment of AMI in CKD patients undergoing hemodialysis, which can provide an excellent paradigm for exploring the crosstalk between the kidney and cardiovascular system.

Hassen HBH, Ammar A, Machfer A, Fkih N, Erriahi S, Hamdi S, Chtourou H, Bouzid MA. Acute Effects of Caffeine Ingestion on Postural Balance, Functional Capacity and Cognitive Function in Patients with End Stage Renal Disease. Brain Sci 2024; 14:701. [PMID: 39061441 PMCID: PMC11274997 DOI: 10.3390/brainsci14070701] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2024] [Revised: 07/09/2024] [Accepted: 07/09/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) display many cognitive and physiological alterations resulting from renal failure and physical inactivity. Caffeine intake has been reported to improve cognitive/physical performance in several studies. However, whether the benefits of caffeine intake apply to patients with ESRD remains unknown. The aim of the present study was to explore the effect of caffeine intake on postural balance, cognitive function and functional capacity in patients with ESRD. In a randomized order, 12 patients with ESRD (age: 33.85 ± 8.57 years; Female: 45.5%) performed a battery of tests after either caffeine (CF) (400 mg) or placebo (PLA) ingestion. Postural balance was evaluated using a stabilometric platform. Functional capacity was assessed with the sit-to-stand and up-and-go tests, and for cognitive performances, reaction time test and a vigilance test were used. Results showed a significant improvement in up-and-go test (p = 0.01) and sit-to-stand test performances with CF compared to PLA (p < 0.01). Time of reaction test and vigilance test (p < 0.01) performances were significantly higher with CF. No significant difference was observed in postural balance between CF and PLA. The results of this study suggest that acute caffeine ingestion positively enhances cognitive function and functional capacity in patients with ESRD.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease poses a growing global health concern, as an increasing number of patients progress to end-stage kidney disease requiring kidney replacement therapy, presenting various challenges including shortage of care givers and cost-related issues. In this narrative essay, we explore innovative strategies based on in-depth literature analysis that may help healthcare systems face these challenges, with a focus on digital health technologies (DHTs), to enhance removal and ensure better control of broader spectrum of uremic toxins, to optimize resources, improve care and outcomes, and empower patients. Therefore, alternative strategies, such as self-care dialysis, home-based dialysis with the support of teledialysis, need to be developed. Managing ESKD requires an improvement in patient management, emphasizing patient education, caregiver knowledge, and robust digital support systems. The solution involves leveraging DHTs to automate HD, implement automated algorithm-driven controlled HD, remotely monitor patients, provide health education, and enable caregivers with data-driven decision-making. These technologies, including artificial intelligence, aim to enhance care quality, reduce practice variations, and improve treatment outcomes whilst supporting personalized kidney replacement therapy. This narrative essay offers an update on currently available digital health technologies used in the management of HD patients and envisions future technologies that, through digital solutions, potentially empower patients and will more effectively support their HD treatments.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to compare gray matter volume changes in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) using voxel-based morphometry (VBM). Methods A total of 27 PD patients, 25 HD patients, and 42 healthy controls were included. VBM analysis was performed, and cognitive function was assessed using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA). The correlation between cognitive function and changes in brain gray matter volume was analyzed. Results Both peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis patients had partial gray matter volume reduction compared to the controls, but the affected brain regions were not uniform. The hemodialysis patients had greater volume reduction in certain brain regions than the PD patients. The MMSE and MoCA scores were positively correlated with gray matter volume changes. Conclusion Different dialysis modalities cause damage to specific areas of the brain, which can be detected using VBM. VBM, combined with cognitive function assessment, can help detect structural brain changes and cognitive impairment in patients with different dialysis modalities. The comprehensive application of VBM in the field of neurological function deserves further exploration.

Abstract
AIM Circulating blood volume (BV) during exercise changes depending on the intensity and duration, and post-exercise hypotension is observed after continuous exercise. We investigated the safety and efficacy of both interval and continuous IDE at anaerobic threshold (AT) levels with respect to hemodynamic stability and dialysis efficiency. METHODS In this crossover randomized controlled trial, 16 patients on haemodialysis were subjected to three trial arms, including non-IDE, interval-IDE, and continuous-IDE arms. Systolic blood pressure (SBP), BV, and ultraviolet absorbance - an indicator of dialysis efficiency - were continuously measured, and each change was compared between the three arms by two-way analysis of variance. RESULTS Continuous IDE decreased SBP from post-exercise to the end of dialysis compared with baseline (pre 142.8 ± 19.0 vs. post 127.5 ± 24.5 mmHg, p = .02), whereas interval IDE maintained better SBP levels post-exercise (pre 139.9 ± 17.1 vs. post 140.1 ± 15.8 mmHg, p = 1.0) than continuous IDE (non-IDE 133.2 ± 19.9 vs. interval 140.1 ± 15.8 vs. continuous 127.5 ± 24.5 mmHg, p = .04). Moreover, interval IDE caused less tiredness and few symptoms (p < .05), despite reaching higher intensity than continuous IDE (p = .001). The BV of each IDE arm decreased during exercise and recovered post-exercise to the same level as non-IDE. Ultraviolet absorbance was not different between each arm (p = .16). CONCLUSION AT-level interval IDE maintains better hemodynamic stability from post-exercise to the end of dialysis and may represent a novel approach that can be effectively performed with fewer symptoms.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hemodialysis patients have increased white matter and gray matter pathology in the brain relative to controls based on MRI. Diffusion tensor imaging is useful in detecting differences between hemodialysis and controls but has not identified the expected longitudinal decline in hemodialysis patients. In this study we implemented specialized post-processing techniques to reduce noise to detect longitudinal changes in diffusion tensor imaging parameters and evaluated for any association with changes in cognition. METHODS We collected anatomical and diffusion MRIs as well as cognitive testing from in-center hemodialysis patients at baseline and 1 year later. Gray matter thickness, white matter volume, and white matter diffusion tensor imaging parameters were measured to identify longitudinal changes. We analyzed the diffusion tensor imaging parameters by averaging the whole white matter and using a pothole analysis. Eighteen hemodialysis patients were included in the longitudinal analysis and 15 controls were used for the pothole analysis. We used the NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery to assess cognitive performance over the same time frame. FINDINGS Over the course of a year on hemodialysis, we found a decrease in white matter fractional anisotropy across the entire white matter (p < 0.01), and an increase in the number of white matter fractional anisotropy voxels below pothole threshold (p = 0.03). We did not find any relationship between changes in whole brain structural parameters and cognitive performance. DISCUSSION By employing noise reducing techniques, we were able to detect longitudinal changes in diffusion tensor imaging parameters in hemodialysis patients. The fractional anisotropy declines over the year indicate significant decreases in white matter health. However, we did not find that declines in fractional anisotropy was associated with declines in cognitive performance.

Abstract
As a recently discovered waste removal system in the brain, cerebral lymphatic system is thought to play an important role in regulating the homeostasis of the central nervous system. Currently, more and more attention is being focused on the cerebral lymphatic system. Further understanding of the structural and functional characteristics of cerebral lymphatic system is essential to better understand the pathogenesis of diseases and to explore therapeutic approaches. In this review, we summarize the structural components and functional characteristics of cerebral lymphatic system. More importantly, it is closely associated with peripheral system diseases in the gastrointestinal tract, liver, and kidney. However, there is still a gap in the study of the cerebral lymphatic system. However, we believe that it is a critical mediator of the interactions between the central nervous system and the peripheral system.

Comparison of whole body versus thoracic bioimpedance in relation to ultrafiltration volume and systolic blood pressure during hemodialysis. J Appl Physiol (1985) 2023; 135:1330-1338. [PMID: 37767559 DOI: 10.1152/japplphysiol.00600.2022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2022] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
In contrast to whole body bioimpedance, which estimates fluid status at a single point in time, thoracic bioimpedance applied by a wearable device could enable continuous measurements. However, clinical experience with thoracic bioimpedance in patients on dialysis is limited. To test the reproducibility of whole body and thoracic bioimpedance measurements and to compare their relationship with hemodynamic changes during hemodialysis, these parameters were measured pre- and end-dialysis in 54 patients during two sessions. The resistance from both bioimpedance techniques was moderately reproducible between two dialysis sessions (intraclass correlations of pre- to end-dialysis whole body and thoracic resistance between session 1 and 2 were 0.711 [0.58-0.8] and 0.723 [0.6-0.81], respectively). There was a very high to high correlation between changes in ultrafiltration volume and changes in whole body thoracic resistance. Changes in systolic blood pressure negatively correlated to both bioimpedance techniques. Although the relationship between changes in ultrafiltration volume and changes in resistance was stronger for whole body bioimpedance, the relationship with changes in blood pressure was at least comparable for thoracic measurements. These results suggest that thoracic bioimpedance, measured by a wearable device, may serve as an interesting alternative to whole body measurements for continuous hemodynamic monitoring during hemodialysis.NEW & NOTEWORTHY We examined the role of whole body and thoracic bioimpedance in hemodynamic changes during hemodialysis. Whole body and thoracic bioimpedance signals were strongly related to ultrafiltration volume and moderately, negatively, to changes in blood pressure. This work supports the further development of a wearable device measuring thoracic bioimpedance longitudinally in patients on hemodialysis. As such, it may serve as an innovative tool for continuous hemodynamic monitoring during hemodialysis in hospital or in a home-based setting.

Cristol JP, Thierry AR, Bargnoux AS, Morena-Carrere M, Canaud B. What is the role of the neutrophil extracellular traps in the cardiovascular disease burden associated with hemodialysis bioincompatibility? Front Med (Lausanne) 2023; 10:1268748. [PMID: 38034546 PMCID: PMC10684960 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2023.1268748] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 12/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Despite significant progress in dialysis modalities, intermittent renal replacement therapy remains an "unphysiological" treatment that imperfectly corrects uremic disorders and may lead to low-grade chronic inflammation, neutrophil activation, and oxidative stress due to repetitive blood/membrane interactions contributing to the "remaining uremic syndrome" and cardiovascular disease burden of hemodialysis patients. Understanding dialysis bioincompatibility pathways still remains a clinical and biochemical challenge. Indeed, surrogate biomarkers of inflammation including C-reactive protein could not discriminate between all components involved in these complex pathways. A few examples may serve to illustrate the case. Cytokine release during dialysis sessions may be underestimated due to their removal using high-flux dialysis or hemodiafiltration modalities. Complement activation is recognized as a key event of bioincompatibility. However, it appears as an early and transient event with anaphylatoxin level normalization at the end of the dialysis session. Complement activation is generally assumed to trigger leukocyte stimulation leading to proinflammatory mediators' secretion and oxidative burst. In addition to being part of the innate immune response involved in eliminating physically and enzymatically microbes, the formation of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs), known as NETosis, has been recently identified as a major harmful component in a wide range of pathologies associated with inflammatory processes. NETs result from the neutrophil degranulation induced by reactive oxygen species overproduction via NADPH oxidase and consist of modified chromatin decorated with serine proteases, elastase, bactericidal proteins, and myeloperoxidase (MPO) that produces hypochlorite anion. Currently, NETosis remains poorly investigated as a sensitive and integrated marker of bioincompatibility in dialysis. Only scarce data could be found in the literature. Oxidative burst and NADPH oxidase activation are well-known events in the bioincompatibility phenomenon. NET byproducts such as elastase, MPO, and circulating DNA have been reported to be increased in dialysis patients more specifically during dialysis sessions, and were identified as predictors of poor outcomes. As NETs and MPO could be taken up by endothelium, NETs could be considered as a vascular memory of intermittent bioincompatibility phenomenon. In this working hypothesis article, we summarized the puzzle pieces showing the involvement of NET formation during hemodialysis and postulated that NETosis may act as a disease modifier and may contribute to the comorbid burden associated with dialysis bioincompatibility.

Abstract
Introduction The life-sustaining treatment of hemodialysis (HD) induces recurrent and cumulative systemic circulatory stress resulting in cardiovascular injury. These recurrent insults compound preexisting cardiovascular sequalae leading to the development of myocardial injury and resulting in extremely high morbidity/mortality. This is largely a consequence of challenged microcirculatory flow within the myocardium (evidenced by detailed imaging-based studies). Currently, monitoring during HD is performed at the macrovascular level. Non-invasive monitoring of organ perfusion would allow the detection and therapeutic amelioration of this pathophysiological response to HD. Non-invasive percutaneous perfusion monitoring of the skin (using photoplethysmography-PPG) has been shown to be predictive of HD-induced myocardial stunning (a consequence of segmental ischemia). In this study, we extended these observations to include a dynamic assessment of skin perfusion during HD compared with directly measured myocardial perfusion during dialysis and cardiac contractile function. Methods We evaluated the intradialytic microcirculatory response in 12 patients receiving conventional HD treatments using continuous percutaneous perfusion monitoring throughout HD. Cardiac echocardiography was performed prior to the initiation of HD, and again at peak-HD stress, to assess the development of regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMAs). Myocardial perfusion imaging was obtained at the same timepoints (pre-HD and peak-HD stress), utilizing intravenous administered contrast and a computerized tomography (CT)-based method. Intradialytic changes in pulse strength (derived from PPG) were compared with the development of HD-induced RWMAs (indicative of myocardial stunning) and changes in myocardial perfusion. Results We found an association between the lowest pulse strength reduction (PPG) and the development of RWMAs (p = 0.03) and also with changes in global myocardial perfusion (CT) (p = 0.05). Ultrafiltration rate (mL/kg/hour) was a significant driver of HD-induced circulatory stress [(associated with the greatest pulse strength reduction (p = 0.01), a reduction in global myocardial perfusion (p = 0.001), and the development of RWMAs (p = 0.03)]. Discussion Percutaneous perfusion monitoring using PPG is a useful method of assessing intradialytic hemodynamic stability and HD-induced circulatory stress. The information generated at the microcirculatory level of the skin is reflective of direct measures of myocardial perfusion and the development of HD-induced myocardial stunning. This approach for the detection and management of HD-induced cardiac injury warrants additional evaluation.

Enhancing the Cardiovascular Safety of Hemodialysis Care Using Multimodal Provider Education and Patient Activation Interventions: Protocol for a Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial. JMIR Res Protoc 2023; 12:e46187. [PMID: 37079365 PMCID: PMC10160944 DOI: 10.2196/46187] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Accepted: 02/19/2023] [Indexed: 02/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) is treated with dialysis or kidney transplantation, with most patients with ESKD receiving in-center hemodialysis treatment. This life-saving treatment can result in cardiovascular and hemodynamic instability, with the most common form being low blood pressure during the dialysis treatment (intradialytic hypotension [IDH]). IDH is a complication of hemodialysis that can involve symptoms such as fatigue, nausea, cramping, and loss of consciousness. IDH increases risks of cardiovascular disease and ultimately hospitalizations and mortality. Provider-level and patient-level decisions influence the occurrence of IDH; thus, IDH may be preventable in routine hemodialysis care. OBJECTIVE This study aims to evaluate the independent and comparative effectiveness of 2 interventions-one directed at hemodialysis providers and another for patients-in reducing the rate of IDH at hemodialysis facilities. In addition, the study will assess the effects of interventions on secondary patient-centered clinical outcomes and examine factors associated with a successful implementation of the interventions. METHODS This study is a pragmatic, cluster randomized trial to be conducted in 20 hemodialysis facilities in the United States. Hemodialysis facilities will be randomized using a 2 × 2 factorial design, such that 5 sites will receive a multimodal provider education intervention, 5 sites will receive a patient activation intervention, 5 sites will receive both interventions, and 5 sites will receive none of the 2 interventions. The multimodal provider education intervention involved theory-informed team training and the use of a digital, tablet-based checklist to heighten attention to patient clinical factors associated with increased IDH risk. The patient activation intervention involves tablet-based, theory-informed patient education and peer mentoring. Patient outcomes will be monitored during a 12-week baseline period, followed by a 24-week intervention period and a 12-week postintervention follow-up period. The primary outcome of the study is the proportion of treatments with IDH, which will be aggregated at the facility level. Secondary outcomes include patient symptoms, fluid adherence, hemodialysis adherence, quality of life, hospitalizations, and mortality. RESULTS This study is funded by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute and approved by the University of Michigan Medical School's institutional review board. The study began enrolling patients in January 2023. Initial feasibility data will be available in May 2023. Data collection will conclude in November 2024. CONCLUSIONS The effects of provider and patient education on reducing the proportion of sessions with IDH and improving other patient-centered clinical outcomes will be evaluated, and the findings will be used to inform further improvements in patient care. Improving the stability of hemodialysis sessions is a critical concern for clinicians and patients with ESKD; the interventions targeted to providers and patients are predicted to lead to improvements in patient health and quality of life.

Abstract
Introduction Lung ultrasound (LUS) is used for dry weight guidance by assessment of pulmonary congestion in hemodialysis (HD) patients. The aim of this study was to estimate amounts of accumulated fluid by total LUS scores (TLUSS), which were scarcely reported in HD patients who were normal or had a mild functional abnormality. In addition, the correlations between the LUS score of each area and TLUSS were determined to suggest fewer specific areas valuable to shorten the examination time of LUS. Methods This cohort study was conducted in adult HD patients who have New York Heart Association Classes I-II. LUS and multifrequency bioimpedance (BIA) were performed at baseline and the individual prescribed dry weight was set. Then each LUS was conducted at 28 areas of bilateral intercostal spaces and calculated as TLUSS weekly for eight weeks in which dry weight was adjusted. The second BIA was also measured at week eight. The difference of pre-HD weight and target weight (weight gain; WG) represented the amount of fluid accumulation. Results Twenty patients with a mean age of 62.2±14.0 years were enrolled. One hundred and sixty-six LUS were performed in which forty episodes of them were simultaneously measured with BIA. Optimum dry weight adjusted by TLUSS which benefited in mean reductions of blood pressure, and cardiothoracic ratios. WG amounts were significantly correlated with TLUSS (r=0.38), and with extracellular fluid (r=0.35) and overhydration fluid (r=0.39) assessed by BIA. Estimations of mean fluid overload were 2.18 (TLUSS ≤15), 2.72 (TLUSS 16-24), 3.17 (TLUSS 25-33), 3.65 (TLUSS 34-38) and 5.03 (TLUSS ≥39) in liters. The cut-off points of sum scores of 12 specific lung areas represented the none-mild were <8, moderate at 8-16, and severe pulmonary congestions were >16. Conclusion TLUSS estimated accumulated fluid useful for volume and blood pressure controls. Performance of LUS in 12 specific lung areas may reduce spending time and support routine uses of LUS in clinical practice.

Chinese Clinical Practice Guideline for the Management of "CKD-PeriDialysis"-the Periods Prior to and in the Early-Stage of Initial Dialysis. Kidney Int Rep 2022; 7:S531-S558. [PMID: 36567827 PMCID: PMC9782818 DOI: 10.1016/j.ekir.2022.10.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Revised: 09/26/2022] [Accepted: 10/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
The National Experts Group on Nephrology have developed these guidelines to improve the management of pre-dialysis and initial dialysis patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) (two periods contiguous with dialysis initiation termed here 'PeriDialysis CKD'). The pre-dialysis period is variable, whereas the initial dialysis period is more fixed at 3 months to 6 months after initiating dialysis. The new concept and characteristics of 'CKD-PeriDialysis' are proposed in the guideline. During the CKD-PeriDialysis period, the incidence rate of complications, mortality and treatment cost significantly increases and the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) rapidly decreases, which requires intensive management. The guideline systematically and comprehensively elaborates the recommendations for indicators to be used in for disease evaluation, timing and mode selection of renal replacement therapy, dialysis adequacy evaluation, and diagnosis and treatment of common PeriDialysis complications. Finally, future research directions of CKD-PeriDialysis are proposed. CKD-PeriDialysis management is a difficult clinical issue in kidney disease, and the development and implementation of these guidelines is important to improve the management of CKD-PeriDialysis patients in China, which could ultimately improve survival rates and quality of life, and reduce the medical burden.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Patients with chronic kidney disease characteristically exhibit microcirculatory dysfunction, in combination with vascular damage. Hemodialysis superimposes additional circulatory stress to the microvasculature (repetitive ischemic insults/cumulative damage) resulting in high mortality. Intradialytic monitoring and hemodialysis delivery is currently limited to macrovascular/systemic assessment and detection of intradialytic systemic hypotension. Monitoring of the microcirculation has the potential to provide valuable information on hemodialysis-induced circulatory stress likely to result in end-organ ischemia (with/without systemic hypotension) generating an opportunity to intervene before tissue injury occurs. RECENT FINDINGS Various noninvasive technologies have been used assessing the microcirculation in hemodialysis patients at rest. Some technologies have also been applied during hemodialysis studying the effects of treatment on the microcirculation. Despite the approach used, results are consistent. Hemodialysis patients have impaired microcirculations with treatment adding additional stress to inadequately regulated vascular beds. Utility/practicality/clinical relevance vary significantly between methodologies. SUMMARY Intradialytic monitoring of the microcirculation can provide additional insights into a patient's individual response to treatment. However, this valuable perspective has not been adopted into clinical practice. A microcirculatory view could provide a window of opportunity to enable a precision medicine approach to treatment delivery improving current woefully poor subjective and objective clinical outcomes.

Abstract
New physiologic findings related to sodium homeostasis and pathophysiologic associations require a new vision for sodium, fluid and blood pressure management in dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease patients. The traditional dry weight probing approach that has prevailed for many years must be reviewed in light of these findings and enriched by availability of new tools for monitoring and handling sodium and water imbalances. A comprehensive and integrated approach is needed to improve further cardiac health in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Adequate management of sodium, water, volume and hemodynamic control of HD patients relies on a stepwise approach: the first entails assessment and monitoring of fluid status and relies on clinical judgement supported by specific tools that are online embedded in the HD machine or devices used offline; the second consists of acting on correcting fluid imbalance mainly through dialysis prescription (treatment time, active tools embedded on HD machine) but also on guidance related to diet and thirst management; the third consist of fine tuning treatment prescription to patient responses and tolerance with the support of innovative tools such as artificial intelligence and remote pervasive health trackers. It is time to come back to sodium and water imbalance as the root cause of the problem and not to act primarily on their consequences (fluid overload, hypertension) or organ damage (heart; atherosclerosis, brain). We know the problem and have the tools to assess and manage in a more precise way sodium and fluid in HD patients. We strongly call for a sodium first approach to reduce disease burden and improve cardiac health in dialysis-dependent chronic kidney disease patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with kidney failure treated with hemodialysis (HD) may be at risk for cerebral hypoperfusion due to HD-induced BP decline in the setting of impaired cerebral autoregulation. Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR), the cerebrovascular response to vasoactive stimuli, may be a useful indicator of cerebral autoregulation in the HD population and identify those at risk for cerebral hypoperfusion. We hypothesize that CVR combined with intradialytic BP changes will be associated with declines in cerebral oxygenation saturation (ScO2) during HD. METHODS Participants completed the MRI scans on a non-HD day and cerebral oximetry during HD. We measured CVR with resting-state fMRI (rs-fMRI) without a gas challenge and ScO2 saturation with near-infrared spectroscopy. Regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between intradialytic cerebral oxygen desaturation, intradialytic BP, and CVR in different gray matter regions. RESULTS Twenty-six patients on HD had complete data for analysis. Sixteen patients were men, 18 had diabetes, and 20 had hypertension. Mean±SD age was 65.3±7.2 years, and mean±SD duration on HD was 11.5±9.4 months. CVR in the anterior cingulate gyrus (ACG; P=0.03, r2 =0.19) and insular cortex (IC; P=0.03, r2 =0.19) regions negatively correlated with decline in intradialytic ScO2. Model prediction of intradialytic ScO2 improved when including intradialytic BP change and ultrafiltration rate to the ACG rsCVR (P<0.01, r2 =0.48) and IC rsCVR (P=0.02, r2 =0.35) models, respectively. CONCLUSIONS We found significant relationships between regional rsCVR measured in the brain and decline in intradialytic ScO2. Our results warrant further exploration of using CVR in determining a patient's risk of cerebral ischemic injury during HD.

Abstract
The development of maintenance hemodialysis (HD) for end stage kidney disease patients is a success story that continues to save many lives. Nevertheless, intermittent renal replacement therapy is also a source of recurrent stress for patients. Conventional thrice weekly short HD is an imperfect treatment that only partially corrects uremic abnormalities, increases cardiovascular risk, and exacerbates disease burden. Altering cycles of fluid loading associated with cardiac stretching (interdialytic phase) and then fluid unloading (intradialytic phase) likely contribute to cardiac and vascular damage. This unphysiologic treatment profile combined with cyclic disturbances including osmotic and electrolytic shifts may contribute to morbidity in dialysis patients and augment the health burden of treatment. As such, HD patients are exposed to multiple stressors including cardiocirculatory, inflammatory, biologic, hypoxemic, and nutritional. This cascade of events can be termed the dialysis stress storm and sickness syndrome. Mitigating cardiovascular risk and morbidity associated with conventional intermittent HD appears to be a priority for improving patient experience and reducing disease burden. In this in-depth review, we summarize the hidden effects of intermittent HD therapy, and call for action to improve delivered HD and develop treatment schedules that are better tolerated and associated with fewer adverse effects.

Semin Dial 2022; 35:405-412. [PMID: 35301753 DOI: 10.1111/sdi.13075] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Hemodiafiltration (HDF) achieves a more efficient reduction of the uremic toxic load compared to standard high-flux hemodialysis (HF-HD) by virtue of the combined diffusive and convective clearances of a broad spectrum of uremic retention solutes. Clinical trials and registry data suggest that HDF improves patient outcomes. Despite the acknowledged need to improve survival rates of dialysis patients and the survival benefit HDF offers, there is little to no utilization in some countries (such as the US) in prescribing HDF to their patients. In this analysis, we present the healthcare value-based case for HDF (relative to HF-HD) from the patient, provider, and payor perspectives. The improved survival and reduced morbidity observed in studies conducted outside the US, as well as the reduced hospitalization, are attractive for each stakeholder. We also consider the potential barriers to greater utilization of HDF therapies, including unfounded concerns regarding additional costs of HDF, e.g., for the preparation and microbial testing of quality of substitution fluids. Ultrapure fluids are easily attainable and prepared from dialysis fluids using established "online" (OL) technologies. OL-HDF has matured to a level whereby little additional effort is required to safely implement it as all modern machine systems are today equipped with the OL-HDF functionality. Countries already convinced of the advantages of HF-HD are thus well positioned to make the transition to OL-HDF to achieve further clinical and associated economic benefits. Healthcare systems struggling to cope with the increasing demand for HD therapies would therefore, like patients, be beneficiaries in the long term with increased usage of OL-HDF for end stage kidney disease patients.

Abstract
(1) Background: Cognitive impairment (CI) is common in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and patients treated with hemodialysis. (2) Methods: The systematic review was prepared following the PRISMA statement (2013). The biomedical electronic databases MEDLINE and SCOPUS were searched. (3) Results: out of 1093 studies, only 30, which met problem and population criteria, were included in this review. The risk factors for CI can be divided into three groups: traditional risk factors (present in the general population), factors related to dialysis sessions, and nontraditional risk factors occurring more frequently in the HD group. (4) Conclusions: the methods of counteracting CI effective in the general population should also be effective in HD patients. However, there is a need to develop unique anti-CI approaches targeting specific HD risk factors, i.e., modified hemodialysis parameters stabilizing cerebral saturation and blood flow.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) frequently coexist, and the combination is linked to poor outcomes, but limited data exist to guide optimal management. We evaluated the outcome of dialysis therapy in older patients with HF and advanced CKD. METHODS We examined adults aged ≥70 years with HF and eGFR ≤20 ml/min/1.73 m2 between 2008-2012 and no prior renal replacement therapy, cancer, cirrhosis or organ transplant. We identified patients who initiated chronic dialysis through 2013 and matched patients who did not initiate dialysis on age, gender, diabetes status, being alive on dialysis initiation date, and a high-dimensional propensity score for starting dialysis. Deaths were identified through 2013. We used Cox regression to evaluate the association of chronic dialysis and all-cause death. RESULTS Among 348 adults with HF and advanced CKD who initiated dialysis and 947 matched patients who did not start dialysis, mean age was 80±5 years, 51% were women and 33% were Black. The crude rate of death was high overall but lower in those initiating vs. not initiating chronic dialysis (26.1 vs. 32.1 per 100 person-years, respectively, P = 0.02). In multivariable analysis, dialysis was associated with a 33% (95% Confidence Interval:17-46%) lower adjusted rate of death compared with not initiating dialysis. CONCLUSIONS Among older adults with HF and advanced CKD, dialysis initiation was associated with lower mortality, but absolute rates of death were very high in both groups. Randomized trials should evaluate net outcomes of dialysis vs. conservative management on length and quality of life in this high-risk population.

Abstract
Background: We developed a hemodynamic mathematical model of human circulation coupled to a virtual hemodialyzer. The model was used to explore mechanisms underlying our clinical observations involving hemodialysis. Methods: The model consists of whole body human circulation, baroreflex feedback control, and a hemodialyzer. Four model populations encompassing baseline, dialysed, therapeutic hypothermia treated, and simultaneous dialysed with hypothermia were generated. In all populations atrial fibrillation and renal failure as co-morbidities, and exercise as a treatment were simulated. Clinically relevant measurables were used to quantify the effects of each in silico experiment. Sensitivity analysis was used to uncover the most relevant parameters. Results: Relative to baseline, the modelled dialysis increased the population mean diastolic blood pressure by 5%, large vessel wall shear stress by 6%, and heart rate by 20%. Therapeutic hypothermia increased systolic blood pressure by 3%, reduced large vessel shear stress by 15%, and did not affect heart rate. Therapeutic hypothermia reduced wall shear stress by 15% in the aorta and 6% in the kidneys, suggesting a potential anti-inflammatory benefit. Therapeutic hypothermia reduced cardiac output under atrial fibrillation by 12% and under renal failure by 20%. Therapeutic hypothermia and exercise did not affect dialyser function, but increased water removal by approximately 40%. Conclusions: This study illuminates some mechanisms of the action of therapeutic hypothermia. It also suggests clinical measurables that may be used as surrogates to diagnose underlying diseases such as atrial fibrillation.

Abstract
Hemodialysis (HD) is a life-sustaining therapy as well as an intermittent and repetitive stress condition for the patient. In ridding the blood of unwanted substances and excess fluid from the blood, the extracorporeal procedure simultaneously induces persistent physiological changes that adversely affect several organs. Dialysis patients experience this systemic stress condition usually thrice weekly and sometimes more frequently depending on the treatment schedule. Dialysis-induced systemic stress results from multifactorial components that include treatment schedule (i.e. modality, treatment time), hemodynamic management (i.e. ultrafiltration, weight loss), intensity of solute fluxes, osmotic and electrolytic shifts and interaction of blood with components of the extracorporeal circuit. Intradialytic morbidity (i.e. hypovolemia, intradialytic hypotension, hypoxia) is the clinical expression of this systemic stress that may act as a disease modifier, resulting in multiorgan injury and long-term morbidity. Thus, while lifesaving, HD exposes the patient to several systemic stressors, both hemodynamic and non-hemodynamic in origin. In addition, a combination of cardiocirculatory stress, greatly conditioned by the switch from hypervolemia to hypovolemia, hypoxemia and electrolyte changes may create pro-arrhythmogenic conditions. Moreover, contact of blood with components of the extracorporeal circuit directly activate circulating cells (i.e. macrophages-monocytes or platelets) and protein systems (i.e. coagulation, complement, contact phase kallikrein-kinin system), leading to induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines and resulting in chronic low-grade inflammation, further contributing to poor outcomes. The multifactorial, repetitive HD-induced stress that globally reduces tissue perfusion and oxygenation could have deleterious long-term consequences on the functionality of vital organs such as heart, brain, liver and kidney. In this article, we summarize the multisystemic pathophysiological consequences of the main circulatory stress factors. Strategies to mitigate their effects to provide more cardioprotective and personalized dialytic therapies are proposed to reduce the systemic burden of HD.

Abstract
To date, the clinical use of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to detect cerebral ischemia has been largely limited to surgical settings, where motion artifacts are minimal. In this study, we present novel techniques to address the challenges of using NIRS to monitor ambulatory patients with kidney disease during approximately eight hours of hemodialysis (HD) treatment. People with end-stage kidney disease who require HD are at higher risk for cognitive impairment and dementia than age-matched controls. Recent studies have suggested that HD-related declines in cerebral blood flow might explain some of the adverse outcomes of HD treatment. However, there are currently no established paradigms for monitoring cerebral perfusion in real-time during HD treatment. In this study, we used NIRS to assess cerebral hemodynamic responses among 95 prevalent HD patients during two consecutive HD treatments. We observed substantial signal attenuation in our predominantly Black patient cohort that required probe modifications. We also observed consistent motion artifacts that we addressed by developing a novel NIRS methodology, called the HD cerebral oxygen demand algorithm (HD-CODA), to identify episodes when cerebral oxygen demand might be outpacing supply during HD treatment. We then examined the association between a summary measure of time spent in cerebral deoxygenation, derived using the HD-CODA, and hemodynamic and treatment-related variables. We found that this summary measure was associated with intradialytic mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and volume removal. Future studies should use the HD-CODA to implement studies of real-time NIRS monitoring for incident dialysis patients, over longer time frames, and in other dialysis modalities.

Abstract
Background Decisions around planned ultrafiltration volumes are the only part of the haemodialysis prescription decided upon at every session. Removing too much fluid or too little is associated with both acute symptoms and long-term outcomes. The degree to which patients engage with or influence decision-making is not clear. We explored patient perspectives of prescribing ultrafiltration volumes, their understanding of the process and engagement with it. Methods A questionnaire developed for this study was administered to 1077 patients across 10 UK Renal Units. Factor analysis reduced the dataset into factors representing common themes. Relationships between survey results and factors were investigated using regression models. ANCOVA was used to explore differences between Renal Units. Results Patients generally felt in control of their fluid management and that they were given the final say on planned ultrafiltration volumes. Around half of the respondents reported they take an active role in their treatment. However, respondents were largely unable to relate signs and symptoms to fluid management practice and a third said they would not report common signs and symptoms to clinicians. A fifth of patients reported not to know how ultrafiltration volumes were calculated. Patients responded positively to questions relating to healthcare staff, though with significant variation between units, highlighting differences in perception of care. Conclusions Despite a lack of formal acknowledgement in fluid management protocols, patients have significant involvement in decisions regarding fluid removal during dialysis. Furthermore, substantial gaps remain in patient knowledge and engagement. Formalizing the role of patients in these decisions, including patient education, may improve prescription and achievement of target weights.

Abstract
Background Patients on hemodialysis (HD) are known to exhibit low values of regional cerebral oxygenation (rSO2) and impaired cognitive functioning. The etiology of both is currently unknown. Objective To determine the feasibility of serially monitoring rSO2 in patients initiating HD. In addition, we sought to investigate how rSO2 is related to hemodynamic and dialysis parameters. Design Prospective observational study. Setting Single-center tertiary academic teaching hospital in Ontario, Canada. Participants Six patients initiating HD were enrolled in the study. Methods Feasibility was defined as successful study enrollment (>1 patient/month), successful consent rate (>70%), high data capture rates (>90%), and assessment tolerability. Regional cerebral oxygenation monitoring was performed 1 time/wk for the first year of dialysis. A neuropsychological battery was performed 3 times during the study: before dialysis initiation, 3 months, and 1 year after dialysis initiation. The neuropsychological battery included a traditional screening tool: the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status, and a robot-based assessment: Kinarm. Results Our overall consent rate was 33%, and our enrollment rate was 0.4 patients/mo. In total 243 rSO2 sessions were recorded, with a data capture rate of 91.4% (222/243) across the 6 patients. Throughout the study, no adverse interactions were reported. Correlations between rSO2 with hemodynamic and dialysis parameters showed individual patient variability. However, at the individual level, all patients demonstrated positive correlations between mean arterial pressure and rSO2. Patients who had more than 3 liters of fluid showed significant negative correlations with rSO2. Less cognitive impairment was detected after initiating dialysis. Limitation This small cohort limits conclusions that can be made between rSO2 and hemodynamic and dialysis parameters. Conclusions Prospectively monitoring rSO2 in patients was unfeasible in a single dialysis unit, due to low consent and enrollment rates. However, rSO2 monitoring may provide unique insights into the effects of HD on cerebral oxygenation that should be further investigated. Trial Registration Due to the feasibility nature of this study, no trial registration was performed.

Abstract
Background ESRD is considered an irreversible loss of renal function, yet some patients will recover kidney function sufficiently to come off dialysis. Potentially modifiable predictors of kidney recovery, such as dialysis prescription, have not been fully examined. Methods Retrospective cohort study using United States Renal Data System (USRDS) data to identify incident hemodialysis (HD) patients between 2012 and 2016, the first 4 years for which dialysis treatment data is available. The primary outcome was kidney recovery within 1 year of ESRD and HD initiation, defined by a specific recovery code and survival off dialysis for at least 30 days. Patient and treatment characteristics were compared between those that recovered versus those that remained dialysis-dependent. A time-dependent survival model was used to identify independent predictors of kidney recovery. Results During the study period, there were 372,387 incident HD patients with available data, among whom 16,930 (4.5%) recovered to dialysis-independence. Compared to non-recovery, a higher proportion of patients with kidney recovery were of white race, and non-Hispanic ethnicity. Both groups had a similar age distribution. Patients with an acute kidney injury diagnosis as primary cause of ESRD were most likely to recover, but the most common ESRD diagnosis among recovering patients was type 2 diabetes (29.8% of recovery cases). Higher eGFR and lower albumin at ESRD initiation were associated with increased likelihood of recovery. When examining HD ultrafiltration rate (UFR), each quintile above the first quintile was associated with a progressively lower likelihood of recovery (HR 0.45, 95% CI 0.43–0.48 for highest versus lowest quintile, p < 0.001). Conclusions We identified non-modifiable and potentially modifiable factors associated with kidney recovery which may assist clinicians in counseling and monitoring incident ESRD patients with a greater chance to gain dialysis-independence. Clinical trials are warranted to examine the impact of dialysis prescription on subsequent kidney function recovery.

Abstract
In this issue of the Clinical Kidney Journal, Wu et al. present the results of a nationwide population-based study using Taiwanese administrative data to compare safety and efficacy outcomes with initiation of bisoprolol versus carvedilol among patients receiving maintenance hemodialysis for >90 days. The primary outcomes were all-cause mortality and major adverse cardiovascular events over 2 years of follow-up. The study found that bisoprolol was associated with a lower risk for both major adverse cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality compared with carvedilol. While the bulk of the existing evidence favors a cardioprotective and survival benefit with β-blockers as a medication class among dialysis patients, there is wide heterogeneity among specific β-blockers in regard to pharmacologic properties and dialyzability. While acknowledging the constraints of observational data, these findings may serve to inform clinicians about the preferred β-blocker agent for dialysis patients to help mitigate cardiovascular risk and improve long-term survival for this high-risk population.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The initiation of dialysis for treatment of ESRD exacerbates chronic electrolyte and hemodynamic perturbations. Rapid large shifts in effective intravascular volume and electrolyte concentrations ultimately lead to subendocardial ischemia, increased left ventricular wall mass, and diastolic dysfunction, and can precipitate serious arrhythmias through a complex pathophysiological process. These factors, unique to advanced kidney disease and its treatment, increase the overall incidence of acute coronary syndrome and sudden cardiac death. To date, risk prediction models largely fail to incorporate the observed cardiovascular mortality in the CKD population; however, multimodality imaging may provide an additional prognostication and risk stratification. This comprehensive review discusses the cardiovascular risks associated with hemodialysis, and explores the pathophysiology and the novel utilization of multimodality imaging in CKD to promote a personalized approach for these patients with implications for future research.

Rotondi S, Tartaglione L, De Martini N, Bagordo D, Caissutti S, Pasquali M, Muci ML, Mazzaferro S. Oxygen extraction ratio to identify patients at increased risk of intradialytic hypotension. Sci Rep 2021; 11:4801. [PMID: 33637839 PMCID: PMC7910620 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-84375-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2021] [Accepted: 02/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a hemodynamic phenomenon recently associated with decreased blood oxygen saturation (SO2). The ratio between peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) and central venous SO2 (ScvO2) or Oxygen Extraction Ratio (OER), which represents a roughly estimate of the amount of oxygen claimed by peripheral tissues, might be used to estimate haemodialysis (HD) related hypoxic stress. Aim of this pilot study was to evaluate the relationship between OER increments during dialysis sessions (ΔOER) and episodes of IDH. We enrolled chronic HD patients with permanent central venous catheter (CVC) and no fistula, in whom ScvO2 measurement is at hand. OER ([(SpO2 − ScvO2)/SpO2] × 100) was measured in three consecutive HD sessions (HD OER sessions) before HD, after 15′, 30′ and 60′ min and at the end of HD. Then, a one-year follow-up was planned to record the number of IDH episodes. In the 28 enrolled patients (age 74 ± 2.6 years), during 12 ± 1.2 months of follow up, incidence of IDH was 3.6%. We divided patients into two groups, above or below the median value of ΔOER at the end of HD, which was 36%. In these groups, the average incidence of IDH was 7% and 2% respectively (p < 0.01), while OER values before HD were not different. Notably, in the high ΔOER group the OER increment was evident since after 15′ and was significantly higher than in the low ∆OER group (∆OER-15′ = 19 ± 3.0% vs. 9.0 ± 3.0%; p < 0.05). By comparison, blood volume changes overlapped in the two groups (average change − 9 ± 0.8%). Values of ∆OER > 19% after only 15′ of HD treatment or > 36% at the end of the session characterize patients with higher rates of hypotension. Intradialytic ∆OER, a parameter of tissue hypoxic stress, identifies more fragile patients at greater risk of IDH.

Intradialytic hypotension: Is intradialytic acupuncture a complementary option? A case report. Explore (NY) 2021; 18:31-35. [PMID: 33612432 DOI: 10.1016/j.explore.2021.02.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2020] [Revised: 01/20/2021] [Accepted: 02/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a common complication during hemodialysis (HD) and is positively associated with either poor quality of life or mortality. The present case report described the effect of intradialytic acupuncture (IA) in decreasing the occurrence of IDH. METHODS A 70-year-old female with diabetic nephropathy had been receiving regular dialysis twice weekly since end-stage renal disease was diagnosed. She had several episodes of intradialytic systolic blood pressure (iSBP) drop accompanied with severe complications within one month. In the 10 dialysis sessions prior to IA intervention, the case patient experienced two episodes of nadir iSBP < 90 mmHg, seven episodes of iSBP drop ≥ 20 mmHg, among which two episodes occurred with symptoms; and three episodes of iSBP drop required nursing intervention. INTERVENTIONS Dialysis sessions proceeded as usual with the patient receiving five sessions of 30-min IA as an add-on therapy starting from the second hour of dialysis. RESULTS In the 10 sessions with IA administered alternately, she experienced one episode of nadir iSBP < 90 mmHg and three episodes of iSBP drop ≥ 20 mmHg, among which two episodes occurred with symptoms. Occurrence of IDH reduced and no IDH necessitating nursing intervention occurred during IA-HD sessions. CONCLUSIONS The administration of IA showed potential effect in decreasing the occurrence of IDH.

Abstract
Introduction The liver receives gut-derived endotoxin via the portal vein, clearing it before it enters systemic circulation. Hemodialysis negatively impacts the perfusion and function of multiple organs systems. Dialysate cooling reduces hemodialysis-induced circulatory stress and protects organs from ischemic injury. This study examined how hemodialysis disrupts liver hemodynamics and function, its effect on endotoxemia, and the potential protective effect of dialysate cooling. Methods Fifteen patients were randomized to receive either standard (36.5°C dialysate temperature) or cooled (35.0°C) hemodialysis first in a two-visit crossover trial. We applied computed tomography (CT) liver perfusion imaging to patients before, 3 hours into and after each hemodialysis session. We measured hepatic perfusion and perfusion heterogeneity. Hepatic function was measured by indocyanine green (ICG) clearance. Endotoxin levels in blood throughout dialysis were also measured. Results During hemodialysis, overall liver perfusion did not significantly change, but portal vein perfusion trended towards increasing (P = 0.14) and perfusion heterogeneity significantly increased (P = 0.038). In addition, ICG clearance decreased significantly during hemodialysis (P = 0.016), and endotoxin levels trended towards increasing during hemodialysis (P = 0.15) and increased significantly after hemodialysis (P = 0.037). Applying dialysate cooling trended towards abrogating these changes but did not reach statistical significance compared to standard hemodialysis. Conclusion Hemodialysis redistributes liver perfusion, attenuates hepatic function, and results in endotoxemia. Higher endotoxin levels in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients may result from the combination of decreased hepatic clearance function and increasing fraction of liver perfusion coming from toxin-laden portal vein during hemodialysis. The protective potential of dialysate cooling should be explored further in future research studies.

Nephrol Dial Transplant 2021; 37:2048-2054.

Abstract
Bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) has proven to be a promising non-invasive technique for fluid monitoring in HD patients. While current BIS-based monitoring of pre- and post-dialysis fluid status utilizes benchtop devices, designed for intramural use, advancements in micro-electronics have enabled the development of wearable bioimpedance systems. Wearable systems meanwhile can offer a similar frequency range for current injection as commercially available benchtop devices. This opens opportunities for unobtrusive longitudinal fluid status monitoring, including transcellular fluid shifts, with the ultimate goal of improving fluid management, thereby lowering mortality and improving quality of life for HD patients. Ultra-miniaturized wearable devices can also offer simultaneous acquisition of multiple other parameters, including hemodynamic parameters. Combination of wearable BIS and additional longitudinal multiparametric data may aid in the prevention of both hemodynamic instability as well as fluid overload. The opportunity to also acquire data during interdialytic periods using wearable devices likely will give novel pathophysiological insights and the development of smart (predicting) algorithms could contribute to personalizing dialysis schemes and ultimately to autonomous (nocturnal) home dialysis. This review provides an overview of current research regarding wearable bioimpedance, with special attention to applications in ESKD patients. Furthermore, we present an outlook on the future use of wearable bioimpedance within dialysis practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The precise origin of phosphate that is removed during hemodialysis remains unclear; only a minority comes from the extracellular space. One possibility is that the remaining phosphate originates from the intracellular compartment, but there have been no available data from direct assessment of intracellular phosphate in patients undergoing hemodialysis. METHODS We used phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy to quantify intracellular inorganic phosphate (Pi), phosphocreatine (PCr), and βATP. In our pilot, single-center, prospective study, 11 patients with ESKD underwent phosphorus (31P) magnetic resonance spectroscopy examination during a 4-hour hemodialysis treatment. Spectra were acquired every 152 seconds during the hemodialysis session. The primary outcome was a change in the PCr-Pi ratio during the session. RESULTS During the first hour of hemodialysis, mean phosphatemia decreased significantly (-41%; P<0.001); thereafter, it decreased more slowly until the end of the session. We found a significant increase in the PCr-Pi ratio (+23%; P=0.001) during dialysis, indicating a reduction in intracellular Pi concentration. The PCr-βATP ratio increased significantly (+31%; P=0.001) over a similar time period, indicating a reduction in βATP. The change of the PCr-βATP ratio was significantly correlated to the change of depurated Pi. CONCLUSIONS Phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy examination of patients with ESKD during hemodialysis treatment confirmed that depurated Pi originates from the intracellular compartment. This finding raises the possibility that excessive dialytic depuration of phosphate might adversely affect the intracellular availability of high-energy phosphates and ultimately, cellular metabolism. Further studies are needed to investigate the relationship between objective and subjective effects of hemodialysis and decreases of intracellular Pi and βATP content.

Abstract
Hemodialysis has saved many lives, albeit with significant residual mortality. Although poor outcomes may reflect advanced age and comorbid conditions, hemodialysis per se may harm patients, contributing to morbidity and perhaps mortality. Systemic circulatory "stress" resulting from hemodialysis treatment schedule may act as a disease modifier, resulting in a multiorgan injury superimposed on preexistent comorbidities. New functional intradialytic imaging (i.e., echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) and kinetic of specific cardiac biomarkers (i.e., Troponin I) have clearly documented this additional source of end-organ damage. In this context, several factors resulting from patient-hemodialysis interaction and/or patient management have been identified. Intradialytic hypovolemia, hypotensive episodes, hypoxemia, solutes, and electrolyte fluxes as well as cardiac arrhythmias are among the contributing factors to systemic circulatory stress that are induced by hemodialysis. Additionally, these factors contribute to patients' symptom burden, impair cognitive function, and finally have a negative impact on patients' perception and quality of life. In this review, we summarize the adverse systemic effects of current intermittent hemodialysis therapy, their pathophysiologic consequences, review the evidence for interventions that are cardioprotective, and explore new approaches that may further reduce the systemic burden of hemodialysis. These include improved biocompatible materials, smart dialysis machines that automatically may control the fluxes of solutes and electrolytes, volume and hemodynamic control, health trackers, and potentially disruptive technologies facilitating a more personalized medicine approach.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients on hemodialysis (HD) have a significant burden of cognitive impairment. Characterizing the cerebral structural changes in HD patients compared to healthy controls and evaluating the relationship of cerebral structural integrity with cognitive performance in HD patients can help clarify the pathophysiology of the cognitive impairment in HD patients. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, in-center HD patients ≥50 years of age underwent brain structural and diffusion MRIs and cognitive assessment using the NIH Toolbox cognition battery. The cerebral imaging measures of the HD participants were compared to imaging from age-matched controls. Gray matter volume, white matter volume, and white matter integrity determined by diffusion tensor imaging parameters (including fractional anisotropy [FA]) were measured in both cohorts to determine differences in the cerebral structure between HD participants and healthy controls. The association between cognitive performance on the NIH Toolbox cognition battery and cerebral structural integrity was evaluated using multiple linear regression models. RESULTS We compared imaging measures form 23 HD participants and 15 age-matched controls. The HD participants had decreased gray matter volumes (526.8 vs. 589.5 cm3, p < 0.01) and worsened white matter integrity overall (FA values of 0.2864 vs. 0.3441, p < 0.01) within major white matter tracts compared to healthy controls. Decreases in white matter integrity in the left superior longitudinal fasciculus was associated with lower executive function scores (r2 = 0.24, p = 0.02) and inferior longitudinal fasciculus with lower memory scores (r = 0.25 and p = 0.03 for left and r2 = 0.21 and p = 0.03 for right). CONCLUSIONS HD patients have a pattern of decreased white matter integrity and gray matter atrophy compared to controls. Decreases in white matter integrity were associated with decreased cognitive performance in the HD population.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Patients on hemodialysis have significantly higher rates of cardiovascular mortality resulting from a multitude of myocardial dysfunctions. Current imaging modalities allow independent assessment of cardiac morphology, contractile function, coronary arteries and cardiac perfusion. Techniques such as cardiac computed tomography (CT) imaging have been available for some time, but have not yet had widespread adoption because of technical limitations related to cardiac motion, radiation exposure and safety of contrast agents in kidney disease. RECENT FINDINGS Novel dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) CT imaging can be used to acquire high-resolution cardiac images, which simultaneously allow the assessment of coronary arteries and the quantitative measurement of myocardial perfusion. The advancement of recent CT scanners and cardiac protocols have allowed noninvasive imaging of the whole heart in a single imaging session with minimal cardiac motion artefact and exposure to radiation. SUMMARY DCE-CT imaging in clinical practice would allow comprehensive evaluation of the structure, function, and hemodynamics of the heart in a short, well tolerated scanning session. It is an imaging tool enabling the study of myocardial dysfunction in dialysis patients, who have greater cardiovascular risk than nonrenal cardiovascular disease populations, both at rest and under cardiac stress associated with hemodialysis itself.

Abstract
Hemodialysis patients characteristically suffer from a range of unpleasant symptoms. Uremic pruritus effects close to half of the chronic kidney disease population, reducing quality of life and associated with increased mortality. Its pathophysiology though is poorly understood; currently deployed therapeutic approaches are ineffective. Excessive levels of skin and soft tissue sodium accumulate in dialysis patients, producing a range of biological consequences, including inflammation. We report an index case of a hemodialysis patient with debilitating pruritus and extreme levels of tissue sodium, measured with Sodium-23 magnetic resonance imaging. Both the tissue sodium loading and pruritus responded fully to initiation of expanded hemodialysis therapy with a recently introduced medium cutoff dialysis membrane-based dialyzer.

Abstract
This study evaluated intradialytic cerebral hemodynamics measured by transcranial Doppler (TCD) in intermittent hemodialysis (iHD) versus nightly peritoneal dialysis (NIPD). Intradialytic TCD was serially performed in chronic dialysis patients receiving iHD (n = 10) and NIPD (n = 10). A linear mixed model was used to model mean flow velocity (MFV), pulsatility index (PI), and mean arterial pressure (MAP) as functions of time and treatment group. Intradialytic cerebral volatility (IDCV) was calculated using the coefficient of variation (CV) and mean absolute value of change (AVC) of each patient's MFV, PI, and MAP values over time. Mixed model analyses found no significant difference between MFV, PI, and MAP treatment groups in change over time, though volatility differed significantly. Mean CV values for MFV, PI, and MAP were higher in iHD than NIPD (MFV 0.22 vs. 0.10, p = 0.005; PI 0.14 vs. 0.08, p = 0.003; MAP 0.057 vs. 0.032, p = 0.009). AVC values were similarly higher in iHD compared to NIPD (MFV 8.26 vs. 4.43, p = 0.04; PI 0.17 vs. 0.084, p < 0.001; MAP 6.05 vs. 2.9, p = 0.003). PI, MFV, and MAP were more stable in NIPD than iHD, as measured by intradialytic TCD monitoring. This study identifies IDCV as a unique TCD metric for intradialytic cerebral hemodynamics.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review focuses on the relationships between diabetes, cognitive impairment, and the contribution of kidney disease. RECENT FINDINGS We review the independent contributions of parameters of kidney disease, including albuminuria, glomerular filtration, bone/mineral metabolism, and vitamin D synthesis, on cognitive performance in patients with diabetes. Potential pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying these associations are discussed highlighting gaps in existing knowledge. Finally, effects of the dialysis procedure on the brain and cognitive performance are considered. Emphasis is placed on novel non-invasive screening tools with the potential to preserve cerebral perfusion during hemodialysis and limit cognitive decline in patients with diabetic ESKD. Patients with type 2 diabetes and advanced chronic kidney disease suffer a higher prevalence of cognitive impairment. This is particularly true in patients with diabetes and end-stage kidney disease (ESKD).

Troponin Levels Relate to CRP Concentrations in Patients With NAFLD on Maintenance Haemodialysis: A Retrospective Study. Adv Ther 2020; 37:3337-3347. [PMID: 32514669 PMCID: PMC7467406 DOI: 10.1007/s12325-020-01385-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Introduction Several studies have shown that high sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTnT) levels are elevated in patients suffering from end-stage renal disease (ESRD), even in the absence of clinical signs and instrumental features of symptomatic acute coronary syndrome (ACS). In patients undergoing haemodialysis because of ESRD, nephrologists bear witness to this increase, whose origin and clinical impact are not yet well defined. Methods By a retrospective study, we evaluated data from records of 70 patients with ESRD on haemodialysis, all of them with a history of NAFLD, not suffering for at least 3 months from symptomatic angina and without a history of ischemic heart disease in the same period. Results Hs-cTnT and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels both increased and were correlated, rho = 0.34, P = 0.004. The correlation coefficient between troponin and age was significant, rho = 0.47, P = 0.0001. Serum concentrations of hs-cTnT for the whole population were positively predicted by CRP levels, P = 0.004. On separation of the population by gender, significant correlation between hs-cTnT and CRP was not found in women and was only present in men, P = 0.66 and P = 0.000, respectively. Discussion The assessment of hs-cTnT levels could represent a biological marker in particular subgroups of haemodialysis patients, especially for male patients with higher CRP, those at greater risk of silent myocardial ischemia and future major adverse cardiac events. Conclusions The evaluation of hs-cTnT in haemodialysed patients with NAFLD could indicate that men with higher CRP should undergo close monitoring in order to adopt specific therapy.

Abstract
Pre-hemodialysis systolic blood pressure variability (pre-HD SBPV) has been associated with outcomes. The association of a change in pre-HD SBPV over time with outcomes, and predictors of this change, has not yet been studied. Therefore, we studied this in a cohort of 8825 incident hemodialysis (HD) patients from the European Monitoring Dialysis Outcomes Initiative database. Patient level pre-HD SBPV was calculated as the standard deviation of the residuals of a linear regression model of systolic blood pressure (SBP) over time divided by individual mean SBP in the respective time periods. The pre-HD SBPV difference between months 1-6 and 7-12 was used as an indicator of pre-HD SBPV change. The association between pre-HD SBPV change and all-cause mortality in year 2 was analyzed by multivariate Cox models. Predictors of pre-HD SBPV change was determined by logistic regression models. We found the highest pre-HD SBPV tertile, in the first 6 months after initiation of HD, had the highest mortality rates (adjusted HR 1.44 (95% confidence intervals (95% CI): 1.15-1.79)). An increase in pre-HD SBPV between months 1-6 and 7-12 was associated with an increased risk of mortality in year 2 (adjusted HR 1.29 (95% CI: 1.05-1.58)) compared with stable pre-HD SPBV. A pre-HD SBPV increase was associated with female gender, higher mean pre-HD SBP and pulse pressure, and lower HD frequency.

Abstract
Fluid volume and hemodynamic management in hemodialysis patients is an essential component of dialysis adequacy. Restoring salt and water homeostasis in hemodialysis patients has been a permanent quest by nephrologists summarized by the ‘dry weight’ probing approach. Although this clinical approach has been associated with benefits on cardiovascular outcome, it is now challenged by recent studies showing that intensity or aggressiveness to remove fluid during intermittent dialysis is associated with cardiovascular stress and potential organ damage. A more precise approach is required to improve cardiovascular outcome in this high-risk population. Fluid status assessment and monitoring rely on four components: clinical assessment, non-invasive instrumental tools (e.g., US, bioimpedance, blood volume monitoring), cardiac biomarkers (e.g. natriuretic peptides), and algorithm and sodium modeling to estimate mass transfer. Optimal management of fluid and sodium imbalance in dialysis patients consist in adjusting salt and fluid removal by dialysis (ultrafiltration, dialysate sodium) and by restricting salt intake and fluid gain between dialysis sessions. Modern technology using biosensors and feedback control tools embarked on dialysis machine, with sophisticated analytics will provide direct handling of sodium and water in a more precise and personalized way. It is envisaged in the near future that these tools will support physician decision making with high potential of improving cardiovascular outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Exercise preconditioning provides immediate protection against cardiac ischemia in clinical/preclinical studies in subjects without chronic kidney disease. In individuals requiring renal replacement therapy, hemodialysis (HD) results in significant circulatory stress, causing acute ischemia with resultant recurrent and cumulative cardiac injury (myocardial stunning). Intradialytic exercise (IDE) has been utilized to improve functional status in individuals receiving HD. The objective of this study was to explore the role of IDE as a preconditioning intervention and assess its effect on HD-induced myocardial stunning. METHODS We performed a single-center cross-sectional exploratory study in adults on chronic HD participating in a clinical IDE program. HD-induced cardiac stunning was evaluated over two HD sessions within the same week: a control visit (no exercise) and an exposure visit (usual intradialytic cycling). Echocardiography was performed at the same three time points for each visit. Longitudinal strain values for 12 left ventricular segments were generated using speckle-tracking software to assess the presence of HD-induced regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMAs), defined as a ≥20% reduction in strain; two or more RWMAs represent myocardial stunning. RESULTS A total of 19 patients were analyzed (mean age 57.2 ± 11.8 years, median dialysis vintage 3.8 years). The mean number of RWMAs during the control visit was 4.5 ± 2.6, falling to 3.6 ± 2.7 when incorporating IDE (a reduction of -0.95 ± 2.9; P = 0.17). At peak HD stress, the mean number of RWMAs was 5.8 ± 2.7 in the control visit versus 4.0 ± 1.8 during the exposure visit (a reduction of -1.8 ± 2.8; P = 0.01). CONCLUSION We demonstrated for the first time that IDE is associated with a significant reduction in HD-induced acute cardiac injury.

Abstract
Space medicine and new technology such as magnetic resonance imaging of tissue sodium stores (23NaMRI) have changed our understanding of human sodium homeostasis and pathophysiology. It has become evident that body sodium comprises 3 main components. Two compartments have been traditionally recognized, namely one that is circulating and systemically active via its osmotic action, and one slowly exchangeable pool located in the bones. The third, recently described pool represents sodium stored in skin and muscle interstitium, and it is implicated in cell and biologic activities via local hypertonicity and sodium clearance mechanisms. This in-depth review provides a comprehensive view on the pathophysiology and existing knowledge gaps of systemic hemodynamic and tissue sodium accumulation in dialysis patients. Furthermore, we discuss how the combination of novel technologies to quantitate tissue salt accumulation (e.g., 23NaMRI) with devices to facilitate the precise attainment of a prescribed hemodialytic sodium mass balance (e.g., sodium and water balancing modules) will improve our therapeutic approach to sodium management in dialysis patients. While prospective studies are required, we think that these new diagnostic and sodium balancing tools will enhance our ability to pursue more personalized therapeutic interventions on sodium and water management, with the eventual goal of improving dialysis patient outcomes.

Abstract
Intradialytic hypotension is a major complication during hemodialysis session, associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events and mortality. Its pathophysiology is believed to be multifactorial and remains not well elucidated. The aim of this study is to put forward new mechanisms behind the development of intradialytic hypotension. The study included sixty-five subjects on chronic hemodialysis, divided into two groups: intradialytic hypotensive (n=12) and normotensive (n=53), according to the variation of systolic blood pressure between post-dialysis and pre-dialysis measurements. Renin and angiotensin converting enzyme I plasma concentrations increased in both groups but more likely in normotensive group. Aldosterone plasma concentration is increased in the normotensive group while it decreased in the intradialytic hypotension group. Plasma endothelin concentrations showed higher values in intradialytic hypotension group. Post-dialysis asymmetric dimethylarginine and angiotensin converting enzyme 2 plasma concentrations were significantly higher in intradialytic hypotension group as compared to normotensive one. Collectrin plasma concentrations were significantly lower in intradialytic hypotension group. Finally, post-dialysis vascular endothelial growth factor C plasma concentration significantly increased in intradialytic hypotension group. In conclusion, endothelial dysfunction characterized by a lower level of vasoactive molecule seems to play a critical role in intradialytic hypotension development.

Abstract
Background Pre-dialysis fluid overload (FO) associates with mortality and causes elevated pre-dialysis systolic blood pressure (pre-SBP). However, low pre-SBP is associated with increased mortality in haemodialysis patients. The objective of this study was to investigate the interaction between pre-dialysis fluid status (FS) and pre-SBP in association with mortality. Methods We included all patients from the international Monitoring Dialysis Outcome Initiative (MONDO) database with a pre-dialysis multifrequency bioimpedance spectroscopy measurement in the year 2011. We used all parameters available during a 90-day baseline period. All-cause mortality was recorded during 1-year follow-up. Associations with outcome were assessed with Cox models and a smoothing spline Cox analysis. Results We included 8883 patients. In patients with pre-dialysis FO (>+1.1 to +2.5 L), pre-SBP <110 mmHg was associated with an increased risk of death {hazard ratio (HR) 1.52 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.06-2.17]}. An increased risk of death was also associated with pre-dialysis fluid depletion (FD; <-1.1 L) combined with a pre-SBP <140 mmHg. In normovolemic (NV) patients, low pre-SBP <110 mmHg was associated with better survival [HR 0.46 (95% CI 0.23-0.91)]. Also, post-dialysis FD associated with a survival benefit. Results were similar when inflammation was present. Only high ultrafiltration rate could not explain the higher mortality rates observed. Conclusion The relation between pre-SBP and outcome is dependent on pre-dialysis FS. Low pre-SBP appears to be disadvantageous in patients with FO or FD, but not in NV patients. Post-dialysis FD was found to associate with improved survival. Therefore, we suggest interpreting pre-SBP levels in the context of FS and not as an isolated marker.
