Ye T, Du J, Li P, Rong D, Gu W, Yao Y, Shen N. Modified creatinine index for predicting prognosis in hemodialysis patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Ren Fail 2024; 46:2367026. [PMID: 39120108 PMCID: PMC11318488 DOI: 10.1080/0886022x.2024.2367026] [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: 05/01/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, several studies have explored the association between the modified creatinine index (mCI) and prognosis in patients on hemodialysis (HD). However, some of their results are contradictory. Therefore, this study was conducted to comprehensively assess the role of mCI in predicting prognosis in HD patients through meta-analysis. METHODS We searched and screened literature from PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases from their establishment until March 2024. Relevant data were extracted. The statistical analysis was performed using Stata 15.0, RevMan 5.4, and Meta DiSc 1.4 software. RESULTS The results showed a positive association between mCI and nutritional status in HD patients (BMI r = 0.19, 95% CI: 0.1-0.28, p = .000; albumin r = 0.36, 95% CI: 0.33-0.39, p = .000; normalized protein catabolic rate (nPCR) r = 0.25, 95% CI: 0.13-0.38, p = .000). In addition, mCI in deceased HD patients was significantly lower than that in HD survivors (SMD = -0.94, 95% CI: -1.46 to -0.42, p = .000). A low mCI was associated with an increased risk of all-cause death in HD patients (HR = 1.95, 95% CI: 1.57-2.42, p = .000). In addition, a low mCI was significantly associated with decreased overall survival (OS) in HD patients (HR = 3.01, 95% CI: 2.44-3.70, p = .000). mCI showed moderate diagnostic accuracy for sarcopenia in both male and female HD patients (male AUC = 0.7891; female AUC = 0.759). CONCLUSIONS The mCI can be used as a prognostic marker for HD patients, and monitoring mCI may help to optimize the management of HD and improve overall prognosis in patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION End-stage kidney disease (ESKD) has been increasing in prevalence across the world, including Thailand, and patients with ESKD on hemodialysis have a high mortality risk. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was performed across 855 hemodialysis centers in the Thailand Renal Replacement Therapy registry. The database and mortality data were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 58 952 patients were included. The survival rates at 1, 3, and 5 years were 93.5%, 69.7%, and 41.2%, respectively. On multivariate analysis, factors such as aging, permanent catheter or arteriovenous graft, twice-weekly hemodialysis, low levels of urea reduction ratio, normalized protein catabolic rate, hemoglobin, transferrin saturation, serum albumin, LDL-cholesterol, intact-parathyroid hormone, uric acid, sodium, phosphate, and bicarbonate were significantly related to death. CONCLUSION Mortality is high in ESKD patients on hemodialysis. Age, type of vascular access, twice-weekly hemodialysis, inadequate dialysis, low protein intake, anemia, abnormal electrolytes, and bone mineral disorders are associated with all-cause mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the efficacy and safety of sertraline in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients with depression. METHODS A randomized controlled trial was conducted involving 125 MHD patients with depression. The treatment group received sertraline, while the control group did not receive any antidepressant treatment. After 12 weeks, we compared the changes in the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD), the Medication Adherence Report Scale-5 (MARS-5), the Mini Nutritional Assessment short-form (MNA-SF), the Kidney Disease Quality of Life-36 (KDQOL-36) scores, selected clinical and laboratory indicators, and the incidence of drug-related adverse reactions between the two groups. RESULTS After 12 weeks of treatment, the HAMD scores of patients in the treatment group significantly decreased compared to before treatment and were lower than those in the control group. The KDQOL-36, MARS-5, and MNA-SF scores in the treatment group also significantly improved compared to before treatment and were superior to those in the control group. Albumin and hemoglobin levels in the treatment group significantly increased, while C-reactive protein significantly decreased. The incidence of nausea was slightly higher in the treatment group, and was mostly relieved after reducing the dosage of sertraline. LIMITATIONS This study is a single-center, small-sample study with a relatively short duration of treatment and follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Sertraline can alleviate depressive symptoms, and improve the quality of life and treatment compliance of MHD patients, while improving chronic inflammation, malnutrition, and anemia. However, starting with a low dose and reducing the maintenance dose is recommended when administering sertraline.

Abstract
Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients are the high-risk population of infection and death of novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), our study aimed to investigate the infection status and clinical characteristics of COVID-19 in MHD patients at a single-center in Wuhan during the Omicron pandemic. In this retrospective, single-center study, we analyzed the clinical data of all MHD patients in Hemodialysis Center of Wuhan No. 1 Hospital from December 2, 2022 to January 6, 2023 during the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron pandemic outbreak. We analyzed the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of deaths and survivors of MHD patients. The infection rate of SARS-CoV-2 in MHD patients was 93.32% (573/614), mortality rate was 8.14% (50/614), hospitalization rate was 23.29% (143/614), and the vaccination rate of COVID-19 was 4.89% (30/614). The median survival time of dead patients was 11 days, the mortality rate of male MHD patients was significantly higher than female. Elderly MHD patients had a higher mortality rate, with a average age of death higher than 70 years old. Additionally, the mortality rate of MHD patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 was higher if the primary disease was hypertensive renal damage or diabetic nephropathy. Laboratory results showed that the lower the albumin level and the higher the C-reactive protein level of MHD patients who died of SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe and critical survival patients. In surviving MHD patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, the most common symptoms were hypodynamia (84.70%), decreased appetite (81.26%) and cough (80.69%). The symptoms of fever, chest tightness and panting, cough, pharyngalgia, hypodynamia, decreased appetite in surviving MHD patients with severe and critical type were significantly higher than those in patients with mild and moderate type. MHD patients are a highly vulnerable population at increased risk of mortality during the Omicron pandemic. Elderly, male, primary disease was hypertensive renal damage or diabetic nephropathy, hypoproteinemia and high C-reactive protein level, all of which will lead to increased mortality in MHD patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The worldwide prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) has significantly increased in the past decades. Scientific reports have shown CKD to be an enhancing risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD), which is the leading cause of premature death in patients with CKD. Clinical practice guidelines are ambiguous in view of the use of antiplatelet drugs in patients with CKD because patients with moderate-to-severe CKD were often excluded from clinical trials evaluating the efficacy and safety of anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents. In this analysis, we aimed to systematically assess the adverse cardiovascular and bleeding outcomes that were observed with ticagrelor versus clopidogrel use in patients with CKD and cardiovascular disease. METHODS Electronic databases including Web of Science, Google Scholar, http://www. CLINICALTRIALS gov , Cochrane database, EMBASE, and MEDLINE were carefully searched for English-based articles comparing ticagrelor with clopidogrel in patients with CKD. Adverse cardiovascular outcomes and bleeding events were the endpoints in this study. The latest version of the RevMan software (version 5.4) was used to analyze the data. Risk ratios (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used to represent the data post analysis. RESULTS A total of 15,664 participants were included in this analysis, whereby 2456 CKD participants were assigned to ticagrelor and 13,208 CKD participants were assigned to clopidogrel. Our current analysis showed that major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) (RR: 0.85, 95% CI: 0.71-1.03; P = 0.09), all-cause mortality (RR: 0.82, 95% CI: 0.57- 1.18; P = 0.29), cardiovascular death (RR: 0.83, 95% CI: 0.56-1.23; P = 0.35), myocardial infarction (RR: 0.87, 95% CI: 0.70-1.07; P = 0.19), ischemic stroke (RR: 0.80, 95% CI: 0.58-1.11; P = 0.18), and hemorrhagic stroke (RR: 1.06, 95% CI: 0.38-2.99; P = 0.91) were not significantly different in CKD patients who were treated with ticagrelor versus clopidogrel. Thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI)-defined minor (RR: 0.89, 95% CI: 0.52-1.53; P = 0.68) and TIMI major bleeding (RR: 1.10, 95% CI: 0.69-1.76; P = 0.67) were also not significantly different. However, bleeding defined according to the academic research consortium (BARC) bleeding type 1 or 2 (RR: 1.95, 95% CI: 1.13-3.37; P = 0.02) and BARC bleeding type 3 or 5 (RR: 1.70, 95% CI: 1.17-2.48; P = 0.006) were significantly higher with ticagrelor. CONCLUSIONS When compared with clopidogrel, even though ticagrelor was not associated with higher risk of adverse cardiovascular outcomes in these patients with CKD, it was associated with significantly higher BARC bleeding. Therefore, the safety outcomes of ticagrelor still require further evaluation in patients with CKD. Nevertheless, this hypothesis should only be confirmed with more powerful results that could usually only be achieved using large-scale randomized trials.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the causes of death in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) on maintenance hemodialysis and its influencing factors. Methods This is a retrospective study. A total of 300 patients with chronic renal failure undergoing maintenance hemodialysis who were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University from March 2020 to October 2022 were selected as subjects. Various information of patients were collected. In addition, 80 dead patients in this group were investigated for the cause of death, including cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, infections, multi organ failure, and other causes, and the death-related conditions of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as triglyceridr,,total cholesterol, and in blood lipid levels were analyzed. Results Among the 80 dead patients, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases accounted for a higher proportion of death (66%). Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age, plasma homocysteine, blood parathyroid hormone, hyperphosphatemia, hypertension, high volume load and left ventricular hypertrophy were risk factors for death in patients with chronic renal failure on maintenance hemodialysis. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that high volume load, left ventricular hypertrophy and anemia were risk factors for death on maintenance hemodialysis. The levels of hemoglobin (HGB) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in patients who died of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases were significantly lower than those in the non-cardio-cerebrovascular death group (P=0.00), and the levels of serum phosphorus, TG and TC were significantly higher than those in the non-cardio-cerebrovascular death group (P, P=0.00; TG, P=0.02; TC, P=0.01). Conclusion Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in patients with chronic renal failure on maintenance hemodialysis. Adequate dialysis and normal hemoglobin levels are favorable protective factors.

Abstract
Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an incurable disease requiring lifelong management. China has a high prevalence of CKD, which disproportionately affects older adults and those with chronic risk factors for CKD development. The rising prevalence of CKD in China places a substantial burden on the general population and the healthcare system. Summary In China, there are currently many unmet needs for patients with CKD and high-risk individuals, resulting from a lack of education and support to reduce risk factors, delayed diagnoses, limited knowledge of CKD among primary-care physicians, and poor access to treatments among some patient populations. An integrated, nationwide approach is required to improve the current situation of CKD management in China. There are currently several national healthcare frameworks in place that focus on new major health policies to prevent disease and encourage people to adopt healthier lifestyles, and while they do not directly target CKD, they may have a positive indirect impact. We explore the unmet needs for patients with CKD in China and discuss the potential strategies that may be required to overcome them. Such strategies include improving physician and patient education, establishing a targeted screening programme, supporting patients to improve self-management behaviours, accelerating the creation of medical consortia and medical satellite centres, and migrating from hospital- to community-based management. In addition to policy-driven strategies, development of novel therapies will be key to providing new solutions for the long-term management of CKD. Key Messages An integrated, nationwide approach is required, incorporating policy-driven changes to the clinical management of CKD, as well as the development of novel CKD treatments.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Among maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients, ones with diabetes mellitus (DM) are known to have the worst outcome. METHODS A total of 263 MHD patients were included, a dynamic nomogram was established based on multivariable Cox regression analysis. RESULTS The median overall survival (OS) time was 46 months. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS rates were 90.9%, 70.5% and 53.9%, respectively. The multivariable Cox regression analysis indicated that DM duration, cardiovascular complication, baseline values before starting MHD for estimated glomerular filtration rate and serum phosphate were independent risk factors. The C-index of the dynamic nomogram was 0.745 and the calibration curves showed optimal agreement between the model prediction and actual observation for predicting survival probabilities. CONCLUSIONS Our study was the first to establish dynamic nomogram among diabetic MHD patients, the fast and convenient online tool can be used for individual risk estimation at the point of prognosis prediction.

Abstract
Background Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of mortality in patients on haemodialysis. The development of a prediction model for CVD risk is necessary to help make clinical decisions for haemodialysis patients. This retrospective study aimed to develop a prediction model for the 5-year risk of CV events and all-cause mortality in haemodialysis patients in China. Methods We retrospectively enrolled 398 haemodialysis patients who underwent dialysis at the dialysis facility of the General Hospital of Northern Theater Command in June 2016 and were followed up for 5 years. The composite outcome was defined as CV events and/or all-cause death. Multivariable logistic regression with backwards stepwise selection was used to develop our new prediction model. Results Seven predictors were included in the final model: age, male sex, diabetes, history of CV events, no arteriovenous fistula at dialysis initiation, a monocyte/lymphocyte ratio greater than 0.43 and a serum uric acid level less than 436 mmol/L. Discrimination and calibration were satisfactory, with a C-statistic above 0.80. The predictors lay nearly on the 45-degree line for agreement with the outcome in the calibration plot. A simple clinical score was constructed to provide the probability of 5-year CV events or all-cause mortality. Bootstrapping validation showed that the new model also has similar discrimination and calibration. Compared with the Framingham risk score (FRS) and a similar model, our model showed better performance. Conclusion This prognostic model can be used to predict the long-term risk of CV events and all-cause mortality in haemodialysis patients. An MLR greater than 0.43 is an important prognostic factor.

Abstract
Objective To compare the all-cause mortality of aged and younger patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) over the long or short term, and to identify independent risk factors. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study using the medical records of 181 patients undergoing MHD. We compared the clinical characteristics and laboratory data of survivors and participants who died, according to their age and the duration of MHD. Binary stepwise logistic regression was used to identify independent risk factors for all-cause mortality. Results Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases were the principal causes of mortality. The number of aged participants with hypertensive nephropathy as their primary kidney disease was significantly higher than the number of younger participants. The proportion with chronic glomerulonephritis was significantly higher for participants undergoing long-term MHD. Logistic regression analysis revealed that low body mass index, single-pool Kt/V, serum albumin, platelet count, and total iron-binding capacity; and high intact parathyroid hormone and N terminal pro B type natriuretic peptide were independent risk factors for all-cause mortality. Conclusions Aged patients are more susceptible to hypertensive nephropathy than younger patients. In addition, the survival of patients with chronic glomerulonephritis undergoing MHD is superior to that of those with hypertensive or diabetic nephropathy.

Relationships among the Dosage of Erythropoiesis-Stimulating Agents, Erythropoietin Resistance Index, and Mortality in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients. Blood Purif 2021; 51:171-181. [PMID: 34175850 DOI: 10.1159/000506536] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2019] [Accepted: 02/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) constitute an important treatment option for anemia in hemodialysis (HD) patients. We investigated the relationships among the dosage of ESA, erythropoietin resistance index (ERI) scores, and mortality in Chinese MHD patients. METHODS This multicenter observational retrospective study included MHD patients from 16 blood purification centers (n = 824) who underwent HD in 2011-2015 and were followed up until December 31, 2016. We collected demographic variables, HD parameters, laboratory values, and ESA dosages. Patients were grouped into quartiles according to ESA dosage to study the effect of ESA dosage on all-cause mortality. The ERI was calculated as follows: ESA (IU/week)/weight (kg)/hemoglobin levels (g/dL). We also compared outcomes among the patients stratified into quartiles according to ERI scores. We used the Cox proportional hazards model to measure the relationships between the ESA dosage, ERI scores, and all-cause mortality. Using propensity score matching, we compared mortality between groups according to ERI scores, classified as either > or ≤12.80. RESULTS In total, 824 patients were enrolled in the study; 200 (24.3%) all-cause deaths occurred within the observation period. Kaplan-Meier analyses showed that patients administered high dosages of ESAs had significantly worse survival than those administered low dosages of ESAs. A multivariate Cox regression identified that high dosages of ESAs could significantly predict mortality (ESA dosage >10,000.0 IU/week, HR = 1.59, 95% confidence intervals (CIs) (1.04, 2.42), and p = 0.031). Our analysis also indicated a significant increase in the risk of mortality in patients with high ERI scores. Propensity score matching-analyses confirmed that ERI > 12.80 could significantly predict mortality (HR = 1.56, 95% CI [1.11, 2.18], and p = 0.010). CONCLUSIONS Our data suggested that ESA dosages >10,000.0 IU/week in the first 3 months constitute an independent predictor of all-cause mortality among Chinese MHD patients. A higher degree of resistance to ESA was related to a higher risk of all-cause mortality.

Abstract
Introduction Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients are highly threatened in the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic, but evidence of risk factors for mortality in this population is still lacking. Methods We followed outcomes of the overall MHD population of Wuhan, including 7154 MHD patients from 65 hemodialysis centers, from January 1 to May 4, 2020. Among them, 130 were diagnosed with COVID‐19. The demographic and clinical data of them were collected and compared between survivors and nonsurvivors. Results Compared to the corresponding period of last year, the all‐cause mortality rate of the Wuhan MHD population significantly rose in February, and dropped down in March 2020. Of the 130 COVID‐19 cases, 51 (39.2%) were deceased. Advanced age, decreased oxygen saturation, low diastolic blood pressure (DBP) on admission, and complications including acute cardiac injury (HR 5.03 [95% CI 2.21–11.14], p < 0.001), cerebrovascular event (HR 2.80 [95% CI 1.14–6.86], p = 0.025) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (HR 3.50 [95% CI 1.63–7.51], p = 0.001) were identified as independent risk factors for the death of COVID‐19. The median virus shedding period of survivors was 25 days, longer than the general population. Conclusions Maintenance hemodialysis patients are a highly vulnerable population at increased risk of mortality and prolonged virus shedding period in the ongoing COVID‐19 pandemic. Advanced age, decreased oxygen saturation, low DBP on admission, and complications like acute cardiac injury are parameters independently associated with poor prognosis.

Abstract
Purpose Chronic renal failure has become a major public health concern and treatment strategies are urgently needed. We aimed to investigate whether combination of hemodialysis modes was superior to regular hemodialysis for patients under maintenance hemodialysis. Patients and Methods A total of 144 patients with end-stage renal failure (ESRF) were enrolled in this single-center retrospective study. Patients received regular hemodialysis (HD) were included in HD group (n=52), patients received regular HD plus hemodiafiltration (HDF) in HD/HDF group (n=47), patients received the combination of regular HD, HDF and hemoperfusion (HP) in HD/HDF/HP group (n=45). After 1-month and 24-months treatment, therapeutic effects were assessed in terms of nutritional status, control of complications, dialysis adequacy, mean arterial pressure (MAP), infection rate and living quality. Results When patients received 1-month treatment, there were no statistically significant differences among three groups. After 24-months treatment, patients in HD/HDF and HD/HDF/HP group presented with better dialysis adequacy, lower MAP and infection rate, higher serum albumin, hemoglobin and calcium levels, lower serum phosphorus and intact parathyroid hormone levels, lower incidence of malnutrition and the Hamilton Depression Scale score, higher the Barthel Index score than HD group (P<0.05). The levels of calcium, phosphorus and intact parathyroid hormone in HD/HDF/HP group were lower than those in HD/HDF group (P<0.05). Conclusion Our finding highly indicated that combination of hemodialysis modes was superior to regular HD for patients with ESRF in nutritional status, control of complications, dialysis adequacy, and living quality.

Abstract
Objective: Previous studies have suggested that blood pressure variability (BPV) is associated with an increased risk of mortality and cardiovascular events in patients on dialysis. However, the results are inconsistent. A comprehensive literature review was conducted to analyze the association between BPV and outcomes in patients on dialysis. Methods: Articles in Embase, Medline, and Web of Science from the date of inception through January 1, 2020, were identified. The outcomes were all-cause and cardiovascular mortality and cardiovascular events. The risk of bias was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale tool. Random effects models were used to pool the overall effect sizes. Two reviewers extracted the data independently. Meta-regression and subgroup analyses were performed to explore potential heterogeneity. Results: Fifteen eligible studies were included, and all enrolled hemodialysis recipients only. The overall risk of bias for the included studies was low. A 1-SD increase in systolic BPV was associated with higher risks of all-cause mortality (HR = 1.18; 95% CI 1.11–1.26, I2 = 53.8%), cardiovascular mortality (HR = 1.23; 95% CI 1.10–1.37, I2 = 57.2%), and cardiovascular events (HR = 1.27; 95% CI 1.07–1.51, I2 = 69.3%). Likewise, a 1-SD increase in diastolic BPV was associated with higher HR for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality (HR = 1.14; 95% CI 1.05–1.23, I2 = 0.0%, and HR = 1.14; 95% CI 0.94–1.38, I2 = 0.0%, respectively). Conclusions: A greater BPV is associated with higher risks of cardiovascular and mortality outcomes in patients on hemodialysis. Further research is required to determine whether BPV may be useful either as a marker enabling individualized treatment of cardiovascular risk or as a treatment target in its own right.

The Impact of CKD Anaemia on Patients: Incidence, Risk Factors, and Clinical Outcomes-A Systematic Literature Review. Int J Nephrol 2020; 2020:7692376.

Abstract
Anaemia is a common consequence of chronic kidney disease (CKD); however, the risk factors for its development and its impact on outcomes have not been well synthesised. Therefore, we undertook a systematic review to fully characterise the risk factors associated with the presence of anaemia in patients with CKD and a contemporary synthesis of the risks of adverse outcomes in patients with CKD and anaemia. We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library from 2002 until 2018 for studies reporting the incidence or prevalence of anaemia and associated risk factors and/or associations between haemoglobin (Hb) or anaemia and mortality, major adverse cardiac events (MACE), hospitalisation, or CKD progression in adult patients with CKD. Extracted data were summarised as risk factors related to the incidence or prevalence of anaemia or the risk (hazard ratio (HR)) of outcome by Hb level (<10, 10-12, >12 g/dL) in patients not on dialysis and in those receiving dialysis. 191 studies met the predefined inclusion criteria. The risk factor most associated with the prevalence of anaemia was CKD stage, followed by age and sex. Mean HRs (95% CI) for all-cause mortality in patients with CKD on dialysis with Hb <10, 10-12, and >12 g/dL were 1.56 (1.43-1.71), 1.17 (1.09-1.26), and 0.91 (0.87-0.96), respectively. Similar patterns were observed for nondialysis patients and for the risks of hospitalisation, MACE, and CKD progression. This is the first known systematic review to quantify the risk of adverse clinical outcomes based on Hb level in patients with CKD. Anaemia was consistently associated with greater mortality, hospitalisation, MACE, and CKD progression in patients with CKD, and risk increased with anaemia severity. Effective treatments that not only treat the anaemia but also reduce the risk of adverse clinical outcomes are essential to help reduce the burden of anaemia and its management in CKD.

Abstract
Background This study was conducted to evaluate and update the current prevalence of and risk factors for chronic kidney disease (CKD) and diabetic kidney disease (DKD) in a central Chinese urban population. Methods From December 2017 to June 2018, a total of 5231 subjects were randomly enrolled from 3 communities in 3 districts of Zhengzhou. CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min.1.73m2 or urinary albumin to creatinine ratio ≥ 30 mg/g (albuminuria). Diabetic subjects with systolic blood pressure > 140 mmHg, albuminuria or an eGFR less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 were classified as having DKD. Participants completed a questionnaire assessing lifestyle and relevant medical history, and blood and urine specimens were taken. Serum creatinine, uric acid, total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein and urinary albumin were assessed. The age- and sex-adjusted prevalences of CKD and DKD were calculated, and risk factors associated with the presence of reduced eGFR, albuminuria, DKD, severity of albuminuria and progression of reduced renal function were analyzed by binary and ordinal logistic regression. Results The overall adjusted prevalence of CKD was 16.8% (15.8–17.8%) and that of DKD was 3.5% (3.0–4.0%). Decreased renal function was detected in 132 participants (2.9, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.5–3.2%), whereas albuminuria was found in 858 participants (14.9, 95% CI: 13.9–15.9%). In all participants with diabetes, the prevalence of reduced eGFR was 6.3% (95% CI = 3.9–8.6%) and that of albuminuria was 45.3% (95% CI = 40.4–50.1%). The overall prevalence of CKD in participants with diabetes was 48.0% (95% CI = 43.1–52.9%). The results of the binary and ordinal logistic regression indicated that the factors independently associated with a higher risk of reduced eGFR and albuminuria were older age, sex, smoking, alcohol consumption, overweight, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and hyperuricemia. Conclusions Our study shows the current prevalence of CKD and DKD in residents of Central China. The high prevalence suggests an urgent need to implement interventions to relieve the high burden of CKD and DKD in China.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anemia is extremely common among dialysis patients and underlies some of the symptoms associated with reduced kidney function, including fatigue, depression, reduced exercise tolerance, and dyspnea. OBJECTIVES A clearer cognition of the prognosistic impact of hemoglobin (Hb) or hematocrit (Hct) target for the outcomes of dialysis patients is urgent. This article aims to establish the suitable hemoglobin in order to provide clinical guidance. METHODS MEDLINE, EmBase, the Cochrane Library and other databases were searched with both MeSH terms and keywords to gather randomized controlled trials that assessed all-cause mortality, cardiovascular events, fistula thrombosis, infectious diseases and transfusion among dialysis-dependent patients using erythropoiesis-stimulating agents. The meta-analysis was accomplished via Revman 5.3 version. FINDINGS Totally, nine eligible studies were included, with study subjects involving 3228 patients. There was a significantly higher risk of fistula thrombosis without heterogeneity (RR 1.34, 95% CI 1.15-1.55; p < 0.05) in the higher Hb target group than in the lower Hb target group in the fixed effects model. However, no significant difference was found in all-cause mortality in the fixed effects model (RR 1.09, 95% CI 0.93-1.27; p = 0.30), cardiovascular events (RR 0.77, 95% CI 0.31-1.92; p = 0.58), infectious diseases (RR 0.69, 95% CI 0.24-1.96; p = 0.49) and transfusion (RR 0.92, 95% CI 0.42-1.99; p = 0.82) in the random effects model between the higher Hb target group and the lower Hb target group. DISCUSSION The results favor lower Hb target. To target lower Hb target when treating dialysis patients with anemia may decrease the risk of fistula thrombosis without increasing the risk of death, cardiovascular events, infectious diseases and transfusion.
