Stigger K, Ribeiro LR, Cordeiro FM, Böhlke M. Incidence of hospital admissions in bioimpedance-guided fluid management among maintenance hemodialysis patients-Results of a randomized controlled trial. Hemodial Int 2023. [PMID: 37067785 DOI: 10.1111/hdi.13076] [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: 09/10/2022] [Revised: 02/21/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2023] [Indexed: 04/18/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hemodialysis is life-sustaining in kidney failure. However, proper regulation of body fluids depends on an accurate estimate of target weight. This trial aims to compare clinical endpoints between target weight estimation guided by bioimpedance spectroscopy and usual care in hemodialysis patients. METHODS This is an open-label, parallel-group, controlled trial that randomized, through a table of random numbers, adult patients on maintenance hemodialysis to target weight estimation based on monthly clinical evaluation alone or added to evaluation by bioimpedance twice a year. The primary outcome was survival, and the secondary outcomes were the rate of hospital admissions, change in blood pressure (BP), and antihypertensive drugs load. Participants were followed for 2 years. Survival analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier estimator and Log-rank test, and hospital admissions were analyzed by the incidence-rate ratio. FINDINGS One hundred and ten patients were randomized to the usual care (52) or bioimpedance (58) groups, with a mean age of 57.4 (15.4) years, 64 (58%) males. There was no difference between the groups at baseline. Survival was not significantly different between groups (log-rank test p = 0.68), but the trial was underpowered for this outcome. There was also no difference between the groups in the change in systolic or diastolic BP or in the number of antihypertensive drugs being used. The incidence rate of hospital admissions was 3.1 and 2.1 per person-year in usual care and bioimpedance groups, respectively, with a time-adjusted incidence rate ratio of 1.48 (95% CI: 1.20-1.82, p = 0.0001) and attributable fraction of risk among exposed individuals of 0.32 (95% CI: 0.17-0.45). DISCUSSION The inclusion of bioimpedance data to guide the estimation of target weight in hemodialysis patients had no detectable impact on survival or BP control, but significantly reduced the incidence rate of hospital admissions. The study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05272800.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Protein energy wasting frequently affect hemodialysis patients and contribute to the development of overhydration. The objective of this study was to assess the effect of oral nutritional supplementation (ONS) combined with bioelectrical vector analysis (BIVA) on the nutritional and hydration status and the quality of life (QoL) in hemodialysis (HD) patients. METHODS Thirty-two chronic HD patients were included in a 6-month randomized pilot study. Patients in SUPL group received a simultaneous intervention consisting of a personalized diet, 245 mL/d ONS and dry weight adjustment through BIVA. Patients in CON group received a personalized diet and dry weight adjustment by BIVA. Anthropometrical, biochemical, dietary, QoL, handgrip strength (HGS) and bioimpedance measurements were performed. Malnutrition Inflammation Score (MIS) was applied. RESULTS At the end of the intervention, moderate undernutrition decreased by 43.8% in SUPL group while in CON group, severe undernutrition increased by 13% (p < 0.04 between groups). In the adjusted covariance analysis, SUPL compared to CON group, increased HGS (Δ 2.8 Kg vs Δ -1.8 Kg, p = 0.003), serum albumin (Δ 0.29 g/dL vs Δ -0.03 g/dL, p = 0.04) and serum transferrin (Δ 4.7 mg/dL vs Δ -0.7 mg/dL, p = 0.0007). The increase in QoL was significantly higher in SUPL group. Dry weight was achieved in 100% of patients in SUPL and 95% in CON group. CONCLUSIONS ONS combined with BIVA for dry weight adjustment, improved nutritional status, QoL and achieved dry weight in HD patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intradialytic hypotension is a common complication of haemodialysis, but uncommon in peritoneal dialysis (PD). This may be due to lower ultrafiltration rates in PD compared to haemodialysis, allowing for sufficient refilling of the blood plasma compartment from the interstitial volume, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Here we assessed plasma volume and hemodynamic alterations during experimental PD with high versus low ultrafiltration rates. METHODS Experiments were conducted in two groups of healthy Sprague-Dawley rats: one group with a high ultrafiltration rate (N = 7) induced by 8.5% glucose and a low UF group (N = 6; 1.5% glucose), with an initial assessment of the extracellular fluid volume, followed by 30 min PD with plasma volume measurements at baseline, 5, 10, 15 and 30 min. Mean arterial pressure, central venous pressure and heart rate were continuously monitored during the experiment. RESULTS No significant changes over time in plasma volume, mean arterial pressure or central venous pressure were detected during the course of the experiments, despite an ultrafiltration (UF) rate of 56 mL/h/kg in the high UF group. In the high UF group, a decrease in extracellular fluid volume of -7 mL (-10.7% (95% confidence interval: -13.8% to -7.6%)) was observed, in line with the average UF volume of 8.0 mL (standard deviation: 0.5 mL). CONCLUSION Despite high UF rates, we found that plasma volumes were remarkably preserved in the present experiments, indicating effective refilling of the plasma compartment from interstitial tissues. Further studies should clarify which mechanisms preserve the plasma volume during high UF rates in PD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Segmental eight-point bioimpedance has been increasingly used in practice. However, whether changes in bioimpedance analysis components before and after hemodialysis (HD) using this technique in a standing position is comparable to traditional whole-body wrist-to-ankle method is still unclear. We aimed to investigate the differences between two eight-point devices (InBody 770 and Seca mBCA 514) and one wrist-to-ankle (Hydra 4200) in HD patients and healthy subjects in a standing position. METHODS Thirteen HD patients were studied pre- and post-HD, and 12 healthy subjects once. Four measurements were performed in the following order: InBody; Seca; Hydra; and InBody again. Electrical equivalent models by each bioimpedance method and the fluid volume estimates by each device were also compared. FINDINGS Overall, total body water (TBW) was not different between the three devices, but InBody showed lower extracellular water (ECW) and higher intracellular water (ICW) compared to the other two devices. When intradialytic weight loss was used as a surrogate for changes in ECW (∆ECW) and changes in TBW (∆TBW), ∆ECW was underestimated by Hydra (-0.79 ± 0.89 L, p < 0.01), InBody (-1.44 ± 0.65 L, p < 0.0001), and Seca (-0.32 ± 1.34, n.s.). ∆TBW was underestimated by Hydra (-1.14 ± 2.81 L, n.s.) and InBody (-0.52 ± 0.85 L, p < 0.05) but overestimated by Seca (+0.93 ± 3.55 L, n.s.). DISCUSSION Although segmental eight-point bioimpedance techniques provided comparable TBW measurements not affected by standing over a period of 10-15 min, the ECW/TBW ratio appeared to be significantly lower in InBody compared with Seca and Hydra. Results from our study showed lack of agreement between different bioimpedance devices; direct comparison of ECW, ICW, and ECW/TBW between different devices should be avoided and clinicians should use the same device to track the fluid status in their HD population in a longitudinal direction.

Abstract
Diagnosis of fluid overload (FO) in early stage is essential to manage chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients' fluid balance and to prevent cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, identification of fluid status in CKD patient is largely dependent on physician's clinical acumen. The ratio of fluid overload to extracellular volume (FO/ECV) has been used as a reference to assess fluid status. The primary aim of this study was to compare FO/ECV with other bioimpedance methods and clinical assessment in CKD patients. Whole body ECV, intracellular volume (ICV), total body water (TBW) and calf normalized resistivity (CNR) were measured (Hydra 4200). Thresholds of FO utilizing CNR and ECV/TBW were derived by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) analysis based on data from pooled CKD patients and healthy subjects (HS). Clinical assessments of FO in CKD patients were performed by nephrologists . CKD (stage 3 and stage 4) patients (n=50) and HS (n=189) were studied. The thresholds of FO were ≤ 14.3 (10-2 Ωm3/kg) for females and ≤ 13.1 (10-2 Ωm3/kg) for males using CNR and ≥ 0.445 in females and ≥ 0.434 in males using ECV/TBW. FO was diagnosed in 78%, 62% and 52% of CKD patients by CNR, FO/ECV and ECV/TBW, respectively while only 24% of CKD patients were diagnosed to be FO by clinical assessment . The proportion of FO in non-dialysis CKD patients was largely underestimated by clinical assessment compared to FO/ECV, CNR and ECV/TBW. CNR, and FO/ECV methods were more sensitive than ECV/TBW in identifying fluid overload in these CKD patients.

Abstract
Background The difference in outcomes of cancer surgery between patients with and without kidney failure with dialysis therapy (KFDT) remains uncertain. Methods Using 2010–18 data in a national inpatient database in Japan, we identified patients who had undergone resection of colorectal, lung, gastric or breast cancer. We matched selected patient characteristics, type of cancer, surgical procedure and hospital of up to four patients without KFDT to each patient with KFDT. We assessed 30-day mortality and postoperative complications. Results Through matching, we identified 2248 patients with KFDT (807 with colorectal, 579 with lung, 500 with gastric and 362 with breast cancer) and 8210 patients without KFDT (2851 with colorectal, 2216 with lung, 1756 with gastric and 1387 with breast cancer). Postoperative complications occurred in a higher proportion of patients with KFDT than of those without KFDT after colorectal {20.3% versus 14.6%; risk difference (RD): 5.7% [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 2.6%–8.8%]}, lung [18.0% versus 12.9%; RD: 5.1% (95% CI 1.6%–8.4%)], gastric [25.0% versus 13.2%; RD: 11.8% (95% CI 7.6%–16.2%)] and breast cancer surgery [7.5% versus 3.5%; RD: 3.9% (95% CI 1.1%–6.9%)]. Patients with KFDT had a higher 30-day mortality than those without KFDT after gastric cancer surgery [1.6% versus 0.3%; RD: 1.3% (95% CI 0.1%–2.3%)]. Heart failure and ischemic heart disease occurred more frequently in patients with KFDT. Conclusions Patients with KFDT had higher rates of postoperative complications and 30-day mortality; however, RDs varied between cancer types. The higher rates of postoperative complications in patients with KFDT were mainly attributable to cardiovascular complications.

Abstract
Haemodialysis (HD) utilizes the bidirectional properties of semipermeable membranes to remove uraemic toxins from blood while simultaneously replenishing electrolytes and buffers to correct metabolic acidosis. However, the nonspecific size-dependent transport across membranes also means that certain useful plasma constituents may be removed from the patient (together with uraemic toxins), or toxic compounds, e.g. endotoxin fragments, may accompany electrolytes and buffers of the dialysis fluids into blood and elicit severe biological reactions. We describe the mechanisms and implications of these undesirable transport processes that are inherent to all HD therapies and propose approaches to mitigate the effects of such transport. We focus particularly on two undesirable events that are considered to adversely affect HD therapy and possibly impact patient outcomes. Firstly, we describe how loss of albumin (and other essential substances) can occur while striving to eliminate larger uraemic toxins during HD and why hypoalbuminemia is a clinical condition to contend with. Secondly, we describe the origins and mode of transport of biologically active substances (from dialysis fluids with bacterial contamination) into the blood compartment and biological reactions they elicit. Endotoxin fragments activate various proinflammatory pathways to increase the underlying inflammation associated with chronic kidney disease. Both phenomena involve the physical as well as chemical properties of membranes that must be selected judiciously to balance the benefits with potential risks patients may encounter, in both the short and long term.

Abstract
Background: Flash glucose monitoring (FGM) is a technology with considerable differences compared to continuous glucose monitoring (CGM), but it has been scarcely studied in hemodialysis patients. Thus, we aimed assessing the performance of FGM in such patients by comparison to self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG). We will also focus on estimation of glycemic control and variability, and their relationships with parameters of glucose homeostasis. Methods: Thirty-one patients (20 with type 2 diabetes, T2DM, 11 diabetes-free, NODM) collected readings by FGM and SMBG for about 12 days on average. Readings by FGM and SMBG were compared by linear regression, Clarke error grid, and Bland-Altman analyses. Several indices of glycemic control and variability were computed. Ten patients also underwent oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) for assessment of insulin sensitivity/resistance and insulin secretion/beta-cell function. Results: Flash glucose monitoring and SMBG readings showed very good agreement in both T2DM and NODM (on average, 97 and 99% of readings during hemodialysis in A+B Clarke regions, respectively). Some glycemic control and variability indices were similar by FGM and SMBG (p = 0.06–0.9), whereas others were different (p = 0.0001–0.03). The majority of control and variability indices were higher in T2DM than in NODM, according to both FGM and SMBG (p = 0.0005–0.03). OGTT-based insulin secretion was inversely related to some variability indices according to FGM (R < −0.72, p < 0.02). Conclusions: Based on our dataset, FGM appeared acceptable for glucose monitoring in hemodialysis patients, though partial disagreement with SMBG in glycemic control/variability assessment needs further investigations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vascular refilling occurs to preserve hemodynamic stability during hemodialysis (HD). Recent studies report a feasible and noninvasive method to determine absolute blood volume (ABV), and estimate vascular refilling during HD. The objective of this study is to analyze if lowering dialysate temperature modifies variations in ABV during HD. METHODS The study was performed in 50 patients under HD. During two different sessions, relative blood volume was assessed using dialysate temperatures of 35.5°C (cool dialysate) and 36.5°C (neutral dialysate). ABV and vascular refilling were calculated using Kron et al methodology. RESULTS Thirty-nine intradialytic morbid events (IMEs) were observed in 30 patients, 14 under cool dialysate and 25 during neutral dialysate. We did not found statistically differences in ABV or in refilling volume between cool and neutral temperature. When analyzing apart only those patients who presented IME, we observed lower drop in ABV in the 35.5°C dialysate treatments (0.57 L) versus 36.5°C dialysate treatments (0.71 L). When cool dialysate was used, the vascular refilling fraction tended to be higher, but data did not turn statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS In selected groups of patients the use of cool dialysate induces lower ABV variations that could improve hemodynamic stability during HD treatments.

Abstract
Background and Aim Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a frequent complication in various cardiovascular diseases. However, few studies have reported the prevalence of TR especially the moderate to severe or significant TR (ms-TR) maintenance dialysis patients. Thus, we aimed to identify the prevalence of ms-TR and its associated factors. Methods A total of 491 maintenance dialysis patients underwent echocardiographic examinations, while a subgroup (n = 283) also received routine blood tests, renal function examinations, and electrolyte analysis. We first compared the differences in abovementioned parameters among groups with various TR areas (TRAs). Finally, univariate and adjusted regression were also used to identify factors that were independently associated with ms-TR. Results The incidence of TR jets was 62.6%, which included a mildly increased TRA (47.8%), moderately increased TRA (10.4%), and severely increased TRA (3.5%). Most of the cardiac structures and functional parameters, such as the end-diastolic internal diameters of the left atrium (LA), left ventricle (LVDD), right atrium (RA), right ventricle (RV), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and fractional shortening (FS), were significantly associated with ms-TR. Among serum ions, only total CO2 (TCO2; r = −0.141, p = 0.047) was negatively correlated with TRA. After adjusted, only Na+ [odds ratio (OR): 0.871 0.888, p = 0.048], RA (OR: 1.370, p < 0.001), and FS (OR: 0.887, p < 0.001) were independently associated with ms-TR. Conclusion Tricuspid regurgitation occurs in maintenance hemodialysis patients with ESRD. Na+ FS and RA were independently associated with ms-TR, and these parameters may be potential risk factors/predictors for ms-TR.

Fibrinogen Fucosylation as a Prognostic Marker of End-Stage Renal Disease in Patients on Peritoneal Dialysis. Biomolecules 2020; 10:E1165. [PMID: 32784866 PMCID: PMC7466146 DOI: 10.3390/biom10081165] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2020] [Revised: 08/01/2020] [Accepted: 08/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Glycosylation may strongly affect protein structure and functions. A high risk of cardiovascular complications seen in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is, at least partly associated with delayed clot formation, increased clot strength, and delayed cloth lysis. Taking into consideration that fibrinogen mediates these processes, we isolated fibrinogen from the plasma from patients with ESRD on peritoneal dialysis (ESRD-PD), and examined glycosylation of native fibrinogen and its subunits by lectin-based microarray and lectin blotting. Compared to healthy controls, fibrinogen from patients had increased levels of A2BG2 and decreased levels of FA2 glycan. The distribution of glycans on individual chains was also affected, with the γ chain, responsible for physiological functions of fibrinogen (such as coagulation and platelet aggregation), being most prone to these alterations. Increased levels of multi-antennary N-glycans in ESRD-PD patients were also associated with the type of dialysis solutions, whereas an increase in the fucosylation levels was strongly related to the peritoneal membrane damage. Consequently, investigation of fibrinogen glycans can offer better insight into fibrinogen-related complications observed in ESRD-PD patients and, additionally, contribute to prognosis, choice of personalised therapy, determination of peritoneal membrane damage, and the length of utilization of peritoneum for dialysis.

Abstract
Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) occurs in approximately 10-12% of treatments. Whereas several definitions for IDH are available, a nadir systolic blood pressure carries the strongest relation with outcome. Whereas the relation between IDH may partly be based on patient characteristics, it is likely that also impaired organ perfusion leading to permanent damage, plays a role in this relationship. The pathogenesis of IDH is multifactorial and is based on a combination of a decline in blood volume (BV) and impaired vascular resistance at a background of a reduced cardiovascular reserve. Measurements of absolute BV based on an on-line dilution method appear more promising than relative BV measurements in the prediction of IDH. Also, feedback treatments in which ultrafiltration rate is automatically adjusted based on changes in relative BV have not yet resulted in improvement. Frequent assessment of dry weight, attempting to reduce interdialytic weight gain and prescribing more frequent or longer dialysis treatments may aid in preventing IDH. The impaired vascular response can be improved using isothermic or cool dialysis treatment which has also been associated with a reduction in end organ damage, although their effect on mortality has not yet been assessed. For the future, identification of vulnerable patients based on artificial intelligence and on-line assessment of markers of organ perfusion may aid in individualizing treatment prescription, which will always remain dependent on the clinical context of the patient.
