- Studying the relationship between the risk factors of cardiovascular diseases and carotid intima‐media thickness (CIMT) in renal patients undergoing hemodialysis admitted to Razi Hospital and Caspian Dialysis Center in Rasht, 2017 Sima Fallah Arzpeyma Yalda Haghdar Saheli Alireza Baradaran Sattarzadeh Ehsan kazemnezhad Leyli Medicina media layer intima layer hemodialysis carotid artery Ultrasonography The increase in CIMT is known as an early warning sign of atherosclerosis. CIMT examination using ultrasonography is a non-invasive, precise, and practical way to detect atherosclerosis. As cardiovascular diseases are of the main causes of mortality in dialysis patients, this study tried to examine the relationship between cardiovascular risk factors and CIMT in renal patients undergoing hemodialysis.This case-control study was conducted on 60 hemodialysis patients and 60 non-dialysis patients at Razi Hospital and Caspian Diabetic Center in Rasht in 2017. After examining the risk factors of cardiovascular diseases, ultrasonography was performed to measure CIMT. Finally, data were analyzed using SPSS21 and appropriate statistical methods.Mean CIMT in dialysis patients (0.88 ± 0.16 mm) was significantly higher than the non-dialysis patients (0.69 ± 0.14 mm) (P<0.0001). Mean CIMT in terms of gender and smoking was statistically significant only in non-dialysis patients (P = 0.025 and 0.028, respectively). Age (P<0.0001, β = 0.004), gender (P<0.027, β = 0.05), systolic blood pressure (P = 0.024, P = 0.001) Body mass index (BMI) (P = 0.017, β = 0.005) and TG (P <0.0001, β = 0.002) were considered as factors related to CIMT. Moreover, CRP (P <0.0001, β = 0.132), intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) (P <0.0001, β = 0.003) and Ca-P product (P = 0.023, P <0.001) 0 = β) were considered for having the most importance among the new generation of risk factors associated with CIMT.The results showed that the mean CIMT in dialysis patients was significantly higher than that of non-dialysis patients. Furthermore, age, gender, systolic blood pressure, BMI and TG had direct connection with CIMT. CRP, iPTH and Ca-P product were identified as the most important new generation risk factors for CIMT. 2018 artículo científico 1856-4550 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=170263335014 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1702/170263335014/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1702/170263335014/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1702/170263335014/170263335014.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1702/170263335014/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1702 Revista Latinoamericana de Hipertensión application/pdf Sociedad Latinoamericana de Hipertensión Revista Latinoamericana de Hipertensión (República Bolivariana de Venezuela) Num.3 Vol.13
