Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Atherosclerosis is a common complication in diabetic nephropathy and hemodialysis patients. The effect of hemodialysis duration and other relative factors on the atherosclerosis of patients with diabetic nephropathy needs to be further observed and explored. OBJECTIVE:To observe the atherosclerosis in the patients with different hemodialysis durations, then to evaluate the effect of hemodialysis duration and other relative factors on atherosclerosis of patients with diabetic nephropathy. METHODS:The intima-media thickness of the carotid artery in the diabetic nephropathy hemodialysis group, non-diabetic nephropathy hemodialysis group and end-stage renal disease non-hemodialysis group was detected with high-frequency ultrasonic testing, and the healthy volunteers were as the normal control group. The relationship between the intima-media thickness of the carotid artery in the hemodialysis patients and hemodialysis duration was analyzed, and the changes of insulin resistance in each group were compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the normal control group, the intima-media thickness of the carotid artery in the diabetic nephropathy hemodialysis group and non-diabetic nephropathy hemodialysis group was increased (P<0.01);there was no significant difference of intima-media thickness of the carotid artery between 24 hours diabetic nephropathy hemodialysis group and end-stage renal disease non-hemodialysis group (P>0.05);the intima-media thickness of the carotid artery in the 60 months diabetic nephropathy hemodialysis group was higher than that in the 24 hours diabetic nephropathy hemodialysis group (P<0.05);the intima-media thickness of the carotid artery in the 60 months diabetic nephropathy hemodialysis group was significantly higher than that in the end-stage renal disease non-hemodialysis group (P<0.01). There was no significant difference of intima-media thickness of the carotid artery between 60 months diabetic nephropathy hemodialysis group, end-stage renal disease non-hemodialysis group and 24 hours diabetic nephropathy hemodialysis group (P>0.05). The homeostasis model of assessment-insulin resistance value in the 24 hours diabetic nephropathy hemodialysis group was slightly lower than that in the diabetic nephropathy non-emodialysis group (P<0.05), and the homeostasis model of assessment-insulin resistance value in the 60 months diabetic nephropathy hemodialysis group was significantly lower than that in the diabetic nephropathy non-emodialysis group (P<0.01). The development of atherosclerosis on diabetic nephropathy patients can be affected by hemodialysis to some extent. And the effect is correlated with the hemodialysis duration.
