ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) causes irreversible damage to the renal tissue resulting in decreased kidney function. It is known more for its morbidity than for its mortality as the deranged kidney functioning affects almost every organ system of the body. Dyslipidemia is one of the most common complications of chronic renal failure (CRF) reflected even in the early stages of CRF and usually parallels the deterioration in renal function. As a consequence, dyslipidemia as a risk factor in CKD progression should be explored and documented more. The aim of the study was to compare the pattern of lipid profile in CKD patients on conservative management with that of CKD patients on hemodialysis. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
This is a cross-sectional observational study conducted in Lucknow, India, between January 2021 to May 2021 after considering inclusion and exclusion criteria. The lipid profile of 105 eligible patients was analyzed using an autoanalyzer. After generation of the proper template, data was entered in Microsoft Excel (Microsoft Corp., Redmond, Washington, United States) and analysis was done through SPSS for Windows, Version 16.0 (Released 2007, SPSS Inc., Chicago, United States).RESULTS:
There was a statistically significant decrease in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and an increase in triglycerides (TG) and very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) levels in CKD patients on hemodialysis when compared with CKD patients on conservative management. As far as total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels are concerned, they were also significantly increased in CKD patients on hemodialysis than CKD patients on conservative management.CONCLUSIONS:
Dyslipidemia progresses with the stage of CKD, so early monitoring of lipid profile in CKD patients may help in decreasing the progression of the disease and, hence, mortality in CKD patients.
