Plasma Netrin-1 & cardiovascular risk in children with end stage renal disease
Keywords:
Cardiovascular risk, Hemodialysis, kidney transplantation, Netrin-1, HsCRP, neutrophil lymphocytes ratio, ABPMAbstract
Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of mortality and morbidity in children with end stage kidney disease (ESKD) which arises from the interaction of several risk factors. The aim of the study is to assess CV risk of ESKD children and outline the impact of KTX on this CV risk. Also valuate the relation between plasma Netrin-1, chronic inflammatory markers and CV risk. Methods: Sixty ESKD (30 on regular hemodialysis (HD), 30 recipients of kidney transplant (KTX)) were assessed using 24 hour AMBP assessment, laboratory (including lipid profile and markers of chronic inflammation namely N/L and HsCRP) and echocardiographic data. Plasma netrin-1 was assessed by ELISA technique for all patients. Results: showed significant higher prevalence of hypertension, higher number of patients with 24hrs BP> 95th percentile by ABPM, more prevalence of nocturnal non-dipping BP, higher percentage of obese and overweight patients, worse biochemical analysis, higher chance of medical calcification by higher Po4 and Ca X Po4, higher triglyceride level and lower HDL level and higher N/L in HD than KTX group. Significant inverse relation was detected between plasma netrin 1 and Hs CRP and between netrin 1 and N/L (p<0.001).
