Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the correlation between serum Vitamin D, uric acid levels and arterial calcification in maintenance hemodialysis patients.Methods:A total of 120 patients who received MHD treatment in Daxing Teaching Hospital, Capital Medical University, from March 2019 to March 2021 were retrospectively selected as research subjects, and their general clinical data were recorded in detail. X-ray was used to detect the arterial calcification of patients. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of arterial calcification in MHD patients.Results:According to the arterial calcification score, 120 MHD patients were divided into non-calcification group (43 cases, 35.83%), mild calcification group (16 cases, 13.33%), moderate calcification group (42 cases, 35.00%) and severe calcification group (19 cases, 15.83%). There were significant differences in dialysis years, serum Vitamin D, serum uric acid, serum calcium, serum phosphorus, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and arterial calcification score among the four groups ( P<0.05). According to serum Vitamin D level, 120 MHD patients were divided into deficient serum Vitamin D group (84 cases, 70.00%) and normal serum Vitamin D group (36 cases, 30.00%), serum calcium and phosphorus levels in the deficient serum Vitamin D group were lower than those in the normal serum Vitamin D group: (2.53 ± 0.28) mmol/L vs. (3.15 ± 0.31) mmol/L, (1.83 ± 0.26) mmol/L vs.(2.07 ± 0.31) mmol/L; serum uric acid and arterial calcification scores in the deficient serum Vitamin D group were higher than those in the normal serum Vitamin D group: (512.41 ± 65.21) μmol/L vs.(311.94 ± 72.56) μmol/L, (6.92 ± 2.34) scores vs. (2.18 ± 2.01) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). One hundred and twenty MHD patients were divided into hyperuricemia group (77 cases, 64.17%) and uric acid normal group (43 cases, 35.83%) according to the level of serum uric acid, the serum Vitamin D level in the hyperuricemia group was lower than that in uric acid the normal group: (12.28 ± 5.18) μg/L vs. (28.84 ± 4.69) μg/L; and iPTH level and arterial calcification scores were higher than those in the uric acid normal group: (372.45 ± 90.31) ng/L vs. (291.60 ± 98.52) ng/L, (6.22 ± 2.52) scores vs. (2.72 ± 2.63) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The results of multivariate Logistic regression showed that serum Vitamin D and uric acid levels were risk factors for arterial calcification in MHD patients ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Serum Vitamin D and uric acid levels are correlated with arterial calcification in MHD patients, and are the risk factors leading to arterial calcification in patients.
