Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the risk factors related to sleep disorders in patients undergoing hemodialysis using a nomogram model. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in a hospital in Zhejiang province, China from January 1, 2020, to November 31, 2022 among patients undergoing hemodialysis. Dietary intake was assessed applying a Food Frequency Questionnaire. Sleep quality was evaluated by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Evaluation of risk factors related to sleep disorders in patients undergoing hemodialysis was using a nomogram model. This study included 201 patients and 87 individuals (43.3%, 87/201) exhibited sleep disorders. The average age of included patients was 51.1 ± 9.0 years, with males accounting for 55.7% (112/201). Results from nomogram model exhibited that potential risk factors for sleep disorders in patients undergoing hemodialysis included female, advanced age, increased creatinine and alanine aminotransferase levels, as well as higher red meat consumption. Inversely, protective factors against sleep disorders in these patients included higher consumption of poultry, fish, vegetables, and dietary fiber. The C-index demonstrated a high level of discriminative ability (0.922). This study found that age, sex, and dietary factors were associated with sleep disorders in hemodialysis patients. Hemodialysis patients with sleep disorders require urgent dietary guidance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic insomnia is common in patients undergoing in-center hemodialysis, yet there is limited evidence on effective treatments for this population. OBJECTIVE To compare the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), trazodone, and placebo for insomnia in patients undergoing long-term hemodialysis. DESIGN Randomized, multicenter, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial. (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03534284). SETTING 26 dialysis units in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Seattle, Washington. PARTICIPANTS Patients with Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) score of 10 or greater, with sleep disturbances on 3 or more nights per week for 3 or more months. INTERVENTION Participants were randomly assigned to 6 weeks of CBT-I, trazodone, or placebo. MEASUREMENTS The primary outcome was the ISI score at 7 and 25 weeks from randomization. RESULTS A total of 923 patients were prescreened, and of the 411 patients with chronic insomnia, 126 were randomly assigned to CBT-I (n = 43), trazodone (n = 42), or placebo (n = 41). The change in ISI scores from baseline to 7 weeks with CBT-I or trazodone was no different from placebo: CBT-I, -3.7 (95% CI, -5.5 to -1.9); trazodone, -4.2 (CI, -5.9 to -2.4); and placebo, -3.1 (CI, -4.9 to -1.3). There was no meaningful change in ISI scores from baseline to 25 weeks: CBT-I, -4.8 (CI, -7.0 to -2.7); trazodone, -4.0 (CI, -6.0 to -1.9); and placebo, -4.3 (CI, -6.4 to -2.2). Serious adverse events (SAEs), particularly serious cardiovascular events, were more frequent with trazodone (annualized cardiovascular SAE incidence rates: CBT-I, 0.05 [CI, 0.00 to 0.29]; trazodone, 0.64 [CI, 0.34 to 1.10]; and placebo, 0.21 [CI, 0.06 to 0.53]). LIMITATION Modest sample size and most participants had mild or moderate insomnia. CONCLUSION In patients undergoing hemodialysis with mild or moderate chronic insomnia, there was no difference in the effectiveness of 6 weeks of CBT-I or trazodone compared with placebo. The incidence of SAEs was higher with trazodone. PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE National Institutes of Health/National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.

Abstract
Individuals living with CKD are disproportionately burdened by a multitude of adverse clinical and person-centered outcomes. When patients transition from advanced kidney disease to kidney failure, the psychosocial effects as well as social determinants of health challenges are magnified, making this a particularly difficult time for patients beginning kidney replacement therapy. The key social determinants of health challenges often include food and housing insecurity, poverty, unreliable transportation, low level education and/or health literacy, lack of language interpreters and culturally concordant educational materials, lack of health care insurance coverage, and mistrust of the health care system. Psychosocial and physical stressors, such as depression, anxiety, sexual dysfunction, sleep difficulty, fatigue, and pain, are often part of the illness burden among individuals living with CKD and can interact synergistically with the social challenges making the transition to kidney replacement therapy particularly challenging. To better support patients during this time, it is critical that social and structural determinants of health as well as mental health be assessed and if needs are identified, that services be provided.

Abstract
Directed differentiation of stem cells is an attractive approach to generate kidney tissue for regenerative therapies. Currently, the most informative platform to test the regenerative potential of this tissue is engraftment into kidneys of immunocompromised rodents. Stem cell-derived kidney tissue is vascularized following engraftment, but the connection between epithelial tubules that is critical for urine to pass from the graft to the host collecting system has not yet been demonstrated. We show that one significant obstacle to tubule fusion is the accumulation of fibrillar collagens at the interface between the graft and the host. As a screening strategy to identify factors that can prevent this collagen accumulation, we propose encapsulating laboratory-grown kidney tissue in fibrin hydrogels supplemented with candidate compounds such as recombinant proteins, small molecules, feeder cells, and gene therapy vectors to condition the local graft environment. We demonstrate that the AAV-DJ serotype is an efficient gene therapy vector for the subcapsular region and that it is specific for interstitial cells in this compartment. In addition to the histological evaluation of epithelial tubule fusion, we demonstrate the specificity of two urine biomarker assays that can be used to detect human-specific markers of the proximal nephron (CD59) and the distal nephron (uromodulin), and we demonstrate the deposition of human graft-derived urine into the mouse collecting system. Using the testing platform described in this report, it will be possible to systematically screen factors for their potential to promote epithelial fusion of graft and host tissue with a functional intravital read-out.

Abstract
Depression is common among patients undergoing dialysis. However, there is a dearth of data on depression and its predictors among patients at different stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD). This study assessed the prevalence of depression and the relationships between depression and sociodemographic and clinical factors among non-dialysis CKD patients. A convenience sample of 88 CKD patients was recruited using a cross-sectional study design. The Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) was used to assess the levels of depression among CKD patients, with a cutoff score of ≥11. Data on the sociodemographic factors and clinical factors were also collected. Inferential statistics were used to determine the characteristics of the sample and assess the prevalence and severity of depression. Multiple regression analysis was used to assess the associations between the characteristics of the sample and depression. The overall mean BDI-II score was 6.23 ± 6.13. With a cutoff score of ≥11, patients with major depressive episodes constituted 18.2% of the sample. Stages of the disease, comorbidities, and sex were independently associated with a high depression score. The model explained 39% of the variation in the depression score. Depression is common among non-dialysis CKD patients. Screening for depression with brief validated tools should be integrated into routine clinical practice at renal clinics because patients in the advanced stages of CKD and those with multiple comorbidities require close attention. Furthermore, large studies assessing the prevalence and predictors of depression among different stages of CKD are required.

Abstract
Sleep disturbances are highly prevalent in patients with predialysis chronic kidney disease, end-stage kidney disease, and after a kidney transplant. They contribute to impairment in daily function and are associated with a high burden of physical and psychiatric symptoms, decreased quality of life, and increased morbidity and mortality. Sleep disturbances also may precipitate and accelerate kidney disease progression. They often evolve across the spectrum of kidney dysfunction and may persist or re-emerge in kidney transplant recipients. Investigation into the multifaceted and dynamic relationships between sleep disturbance and chronic kidney disease requires consideration of myriad contributors including the progression of kidney disease itself, the role of treatment via dialysis and kidney transplant, psychosocial factors, and underlying sleep disorders. Despite sleep disturbance being identified as a priority to address by patients and caregivers, sleep disorders including insomnia, sleep apnea, and restless leg syndrome remain under-recognized and undertreated, and innovation in their management remains modest. In this article, we review the relationships between sleep disturbance and kidney disease, the impact of sleep disturbance and sleep disorders on symptom burden and mental health, and treatment opportunities that may address overlapping symptoms across the spectrum of kidney disease and that could improve patient-related and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to examine the effects of a six-month group-based low-intensity resistance exercise program on depression and the cognitive function of hemodialysis patients. Method We conducted a quasi-cluster randomized, open-label controlled study from October 2017 to December 2018. Forty-two patients undergoing hemodialysis completed the trial over six months; half participated in the resistance exercise group (n = 21, mean = 74.90 years of age, SD = 2.23, 66.67% female) and the other half were in a stretching control group (n = 21, mean = 72.57 years of age, SD = 2.26, 28.57% female). Depressive symptoms and cognitive function were the primary outcome measures. Behavioral and psychological problems associated with cognitive decline (NPI-Q), subjective insomnia, and exercise self-efficacy were secondary outcomes. Outcomes were measured at baseline, three-month (mid-intervention), six-month (end of intervention), and 12-month (six months after intervention) follow-ups. Linear mixed model analyses were used to determine short-term (immediately after intervention) and long-term (six months after intervention) effects. Results In depression, cognitive function, and the NPI-Q, there were no significant effects. In subjective insomnia, a short-term group-by-time interaction in the intervention group compared to the control group was found (ES = .43). However, the effect had disappeared by the 12-month follow-up. In exercise self-efficacy, short- and long-term group-by-time interactions were found. A significant short-term increase in the resistance exercise and a significant decrease in the stretching control was observed (ES = -.83). However, the effect was weakened in the long term (ES = -.38). Conclusion The results showed that low-intensity group resistance exercise would reduce subjective insomnia and improve exercise self-efficacy, but the effect was not maintained by six months after the program. Trial registration: This study was registered on the University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN000029372). Trial registration:UMIN Japan identifier: UMIN000029372.

Abstract
Background Dialysis patients experience a high burden of physical and emotional symptoms directly affecting their sleep and quality of life. In this study, objective and subjective measurements to quantify sleep were performed, compared with those of healthy controls, and associated with burden of comorbidity and uraemic toxicity. Methods A total of 64 dialysis patients were included—10 peritoneal dialysis, 42 in-centre daytime haemodialysis (HD) and 12 in-centre nocturnal HD patients—as well as one-to-one age- and gender-matched healthy controls. Assumed and actual sleep time, sleep efficiency and fragmentation index were measured by actigraphy for at least two consecutive nights. Patients and controls also completed Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaires. The patients’ blood was sampled to determine concentrations of a representative series of uraemic toxins and the Davies–Stoke comorbidity index was derived from medical records. Results Apart from the assumed sleep time, all objectively and subjectively measured sleep parameters were worse in the dialysis group compared with the healthy controls. No differences were seen in any of the measured sleep parameters among the different dialysis groups. None of the objectively measured sleep parameters were associated with ISI or PSQI scores in dialysis patients, while sleep times were related to the subjective scores in the healthy cohort. Objectively assessed sleep parameters were associated to neither the uraemic toxicity load nor the Davies–Stoke score. Conclusions Independent of the modality, dialysis patients have sleep quality much worse than age- and gender-matched healthy controls. The objectively measured sleep parameters could not be associated to the subjective score, uraemic toxicity or comorbidity score, highlighting the need for objective measurements of sleep and clinical guidelines to aid patient management.

Abstract
AIMS The study aimed to investigate the relationship among physical symptom distress, sleep quality, depression and spiritual well-being of patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) and analyse the predictors of the spiritual well-being. DESIGN A cross-sectional study. METHODS A total of 188 patients were selected. The collection tools were the Physical Symptom Distress Scale, the Chinese version of PSQI, the Geriatric Depression Scale and the Spiritual Well-Being Scale. Hierarchical regression analysis was conducted using SPSS 20.0. RESULTS Patients with different treatments exhibited significantly different physical symptom distress. Furthermore, spiritual well-being was significantly negatively correlated with physical symptom distress, poor sleep disturbances and depression. After controlling for the variables, sleep quality and haemodialysis treatment were the key predictors of spiritual well-being. CONCLUSION To achieve holistic caregiving for patients' physiological, psychological and spiritual health, Nurses should evaluate patients' symptom distress and depression when providing care for these patients to enhance their spiritual well-being.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) treated with hemodialysis (HD) experience many distressing symptoms. One frequently reported symptom is insomnia. There are unique issues about HD treatments and schedules that disrupt regular sleep/wake routines and possibly contribute to the high severity of insomnia. Despite evidence for broad-ranging health effects of insomnia, very few clinical trials have tested the efficacy of treatments for HD patients. Cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is a recommended first-line therapy but largely inaccessible to HD patients in the United States, partly because they commit considerable amounts of time to thrice-weekly dialysis treatments. Another important reason could be the logistical and reimbursement challenges associated with providing behavioral health care at the dialysis center. CBT-I delivered by telehealth can overcome barriers to access, but its efficacy has never been rigorously tested for these patients. Pharmacotherapy is the most widely used treatment for insomnia; however, some drugs presently used are unsafe as they are associated with a higher risk for death for HD patients (benzodiazepines and zolpidem-like drugs). The efficacy and safety of other medications (trazodone) for the treatment of insomnia has never been tested for patients treated with HD. METHODS This trial tests the short- and long-term comparative effectiveness of 6-week treatment with telehealth CBT-I, trazodone, or medication placebo. This will be accomplished with a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in which 126 participants treated with HD in community-based dialysis facilities with chronic insomnia will be assigned 1:1:1 to telehealth CBT-I, trazodone, or medication placebo, respectively; short-term effectiveness of each treatment arm will be determined at the end of 6-weeks of treatment and long-term effectiveness at 25-weeks. The primary and secondary patient-reported outcomes will be assessed with computer-based telephone interviewing by research scientists blinded to treatment assignment; additional secondary outcomes will be assessed by participant interview and actigraphy. DISCUSSION This clinical RCT will provide the first evidence for the comparative effectiveness of two distinct approaches for treating chronic insomnia and other patient-reported outcomes for patients receiving maintenance HD.

Edley R. Can non-pharmacological interventions improve sleep quality for haemodialysis patients? ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2020. [DOI: 10.12968/jokc.2020.5.1.6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
Poor sleep quality is a major issue for haemodialysis (HD) patients, with as many as 80% reporting problems with sleep. Poor sleep has a negative impact on HD patients' mental health, quality of life and day-to-day functioning, along with increasing morbidity and mortality risks. Non-pharmacological interventions have fewer side-effects compared to hypnotic medications and have been shown to be effective in research studies. Ruth Edley examines acupressure, massage, aerobic and non-aerobic exercise and cognitive behavioural therapy. All have been shown in small-scale studies to improve sleep quality in HD patients, although no intervention has been found to improve sleep quality to normal levels. It is recommended that further research using larger, randomised controlled trials is undertaken to increase confidence in the benefits of these interventions.

A Nationwide, Population-Based Study. Neuropsychiatr Dis Treat 2020; 16:1727-1736. [PMID: 32801707 PMCID: PMC7384877 DOI: 10.2147/ndt.s257723] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2020] [Accepted: 06/22/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND To examine the association between the usage of agomelatine in patients with major depressive disorder and the usage of sedative-hypnotics. METHODS This population-based, cross-sectional study used Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD) between 2012 and 2015. The agomelatine-only group and matched control (1:3) with the usage of other antidepressants were enrolled. The association between the usage of the agomelatine and other antidepressants and the usage of sedative-hypnotics in the patients were also assessed. RESULTS A total of 7961 subjects were enrolled comprising 1985 with the usage of agomelatine only, and 5976 with other antidepressants. In the present study, a total of 3322 subjects who used the sedative-hypnotics were recorded, with 811 (40.86%) from the agomelatine-only group and 2511 (42.02%) from the non-agomelatine group, which have used sedative-hypnotics. After adjusting for covariates, the odds ratio (OR) of the usage of sedative-hypnotics in the agomelatine only-group was 0.892 (95% CI: 0.306-1.601, p = 0.533), in comparison to the controls, and the relative risk (RR) of the usage of sedative-hypnotics in the agomelatine only-group was 0.910 (95% CI: 0.312-1.633, p = 0.520), in comparison to the controls. No matter as to whether the treatment duration was <30 days or ≧ 30 days of agomelatine treatment was not associated with the increased usage of the sedative-hypnotics. The OR or RR for usage of the sedative-hypnotics was associated with the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) scores as 2, 3, and ≧ 4, and the medical care from the medical center and regional hospital. CONCLUSION Patients with the agomelatine-only group were not associated with the usage of sedative-hypnotics in comparison to the group using other antidepressants.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE to analyze the factors related to the impaired comfort of chronic kidney diseases (CKD) patients on hemodialysis. METHOD this is a cross-sectional study with 80 patients undergoing hemodialysis in a renal replacement therapy unit through interviews using two instruments, one for clinical and sociodemographic characteristics and the General Comfort Questionnaire, during the hemodialysis session. Mann-Whitney tests and the logistic regression model were used for data analysis. RESULTS the study found that being younger (p=0.045); being married (p=0.05); and absence of impaired physical mobility (p=0.007) were contributing factors for greater comfort in CKD patients on hemodialysis. Thus, when establishing the odds ratio, it was possible to observe that being 55 years of age or older, being single and having impaired physical mobility represents a 45.7% chance of developing this diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS sociodemographic and clinical variables contribute to the study outcome, demanding attention during the planning of nursing interventions.

Pilot Feasibility Stud 2019; 5:1.

Abstract
BACKGROUND End-stage kidney disease is a life-changing illness. Many patients require haemodialysis, a treatment that impacts profoundly on quality of life and mental health. Arts-based interventions have been used in other healthcare settings to improve mental health and quality of life; therefore, they may help address the impact of haemodialysis by improving these outcomes. However, there is a lack of evidence assessing their effectiveness in this population and few randomised controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the effectiveness of complex arts-based interventions. METHODS The aims of this study are to establish the feasibility of a cluster RCT of an arts-based intervention for patients with end-stage kidney disease whilst receiving haemodialysis through a cluster randomised pilot study, explore the acceptability of the intervention with a process evaluation and explore the feasibility of an economic evaluation. The study will have three phases. The first phase consists of a cluster randomised pilot study to establish recruitment, participation and retention rates. This will involve the recruitment of 30 participants who will be randomly allocated through cluster randomisation according to shift pattern to experimental and control group. The second phase will be a qualitative process evaluation to establish the acceptability of the intervention within a clinical setting. This will involve semi-structured interviews with 13 patients and three focus groups with healthcare professionals. The third phase will be a feasibility economic evaluation to establish the best methods for data collection within a future cluster RCT. DISCUSSION Arts-based interventions have been shown to improve quality of life in healthcare settings, but there is a lack of evidence evaluating arts-based interventions for patients receiving haemodialysis. This study aims to assess the feasibility of a future cluster RCT assessing the impact of an arts-based intervention on the wellbeing and mental health of patients receiving haemodialysis and identify the key factors leading to successful implementation. The hope is this study will inform a trial that can influence future healthcare policy by providing robust evidence for arts-based interventions within the haemodialysis setting. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trial was prospectively registered on clinicaltrials.gov on 14/8/2018, registration number NCT03629496.

Abstract
Introduction: Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is known as a
progressive chronic auto-immune disease. Measurement of inflammatory markers are applied
for follow up the activity of disease. So determining factors that effects these markers
such as sleep and pain can help to prevent the severity of disease. The aim of study was
to determine the relationship between sleep disorders, pain and inflammatory markers in
patients with RA. Methods: Participants included 210 patients with RA referred
to educational medical clinics of Imam Reza and Sina in Tabriz selected by convenience
sampling. They were assessed by Sleep Disorders Questionnaire (SDQ) and Epworth Sleepiness
Scale (ESS). Visual Analog Scale (VAS) also applied for pain measurement. Data were
analyzed using SPSS ver.13 by descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Most of participants (74%) were female, the mean
age of participants was 48.41 years. The mean (SD) of sleepiness was 13.14 (5.6) and pain
6.09 (2.14). Significant relationship obtained between sleep disorders and pain. As well
as sleep problems had significant relation with CRP. Also pain had significant correlation
with inflammatory markers. Conclusion: Sleep pattern in RA appears to be disrupted by
pain. Pain severity and sleep problems can predict increasing inflammatory markers that
can be a clues of intensity of disease. So relieving pain and improved sleep can decrease
the intensity of disease.
