Article Synopsis
- Major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) are common complications in hemodialysis patients, and heart rate variability (HRV) might help predict these events.
- A study involving 101 hemodialysis patients analyzed 24-hour electrocardiograms and found that patients with lower HRV (measured by SDNN and SDANN) had a higher incidence of MACCE.
- Results suggest that monitoring HRV can help identify patients at risk for MACCE, especially in non-diabetic hemodialysis patients.
It is difficult for conventional hemodialysis to remove albumin-binding uremic toxins (ABUTs) even though they are low molecular weight substances. We investigated the efficiency of albumin-dialysate (AD) for removal of ABUT. Phenols and indoxyl sulfate were selected as ABUT.
