Introduction: This study was conducted to determine the factors affecting the development of sarcopenias in elderly patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), in order to provide future clinical reference and guidance in preventing the occurrence of sarcopenias in patients with CKD.
Methods: We included 116 CKD patients admitted to affiliated Hospital of Hebei University for retrospective analysis between September 2019 and March 2022. Fifty-one CKD patients with sarcopenias were selected as the observation group (OG) and 65 CKD patients without sarcopenias were considered as the control group (CG). Clinical baseline data such as age and sex were recorded, venous blood was collected for routine examination, and a multi-frequency body composition analyzer was applied to measure patients' body composition. Grip strength, middle arm circumstances (MAC) and triceps skin-fold thickness (TSF) were also measured. Then, patients' sleep quality, nutritional status and negative psychological status were assessed by using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Malnutrition inflammation score (MIS), and Self-rating Anxiety/Depression Scale (SAS/SDS), respectively. Differences in test results were compared inter-group, and the factors affecting the occurrence of sarcopenias in CKD patients were analyzed by multiple Logistic regression.
Results: OG patients were older than CG patients, with a higher number of female patients. Their BMI, bone mass, MAC, serum creatinine (Scr), uric acid (UA) and triglyceride (TG) were lower (P < .05). According to multiple Logistic regression analysis, age, as well as PSQI, MIS, SAS, and SDS scores were the risk factors for sarcopenias in CKD, while BMI, bone mass, MAC, Scr, UA and TG were protective factors (P < .05).
Conclusion: Age, poor sleep quality, poor nutritional status and negative emotions are independent risk factors for sarcopenias in CKD patients, while BMI, bone mass, MAC, UA, TG, and Scr are independent protective factors. DOI: 10.52547/ijkd.7537.

The most significant progress in addressing the HIV/AIDS epidemic has been the development of antiretroviral therapy (ART). However, ensuring a high degree of treatment adherence is necessary to prevent resistance and disease progression. We conducted a cross-sectional study to evaluate adherence to ART through the calculation of the medication possession ratio (MPR) and to identify risk factors for suboptimal adherence in a cohort of HIV-positive patients receiving care at a Colombian healthcare institution across 16 cities.

Objective: This study aimed to compare perioperative outcomes and progression-free and overall survival in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) versus those without after hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for ovarian cancer.
Methods: This is a retrospective, single-institution cohort study of patients with ovarian cancer treated with HIPEC at the Cleveland Clinic from January 2009 to December 2022. All patients received HIPEC with cisplatin and renal protection with mannitol and furosemide.

Background: Microalbuminuria, an early indicator of kidney damage in Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) patients, is linked to a heightened risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adulthood. This study investigates the determinants of microalbuminuria in paediatric SCD patients in South-South Nigeria.
Methodology: This cross-sectional study was conducted over six months at the Rivers State University Teaching Hospital, Nigeria, involving 60 children with [HbSS genotype, SCD] in a steady state.

Objectives: To assess tuberculosis (TB) and associated factors among patients with presumptive TB with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Methods: A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted from January to December 2023 among 381 patients with CKD attending six hospitals found in five regions of Ethiopia. Sputum and urine specimens were collected and examined for TB using smear microscopy, culture, and Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra assay.

This study explored the role of dentate status and dental caries on diabetes-related complications among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A hospital-based cross-sectional design was applied to collect data on diabetic patients attending integrated services for non-communicable diseases and oral health at a public hospital in Thailand. Diabetic complication outcomes included diabetic eye and foot complications and chronic kidney disease (CKD).
