Investigation on maintenance hemodialysis patients with mineral and bone disorder in Anhui province, China.

Abstract

Chronic kidney disease-mineral bone disorder (CKD-MBD) is a common comorbidity in patients with CKD. The study aims to describe the control rates of serum-corrected calcium (Ca), phosphate (P) and intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and its risk factors among maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients in Anhui Province of China. The study was conducted in 27 hemodialysis centers of Anhui Province between January 1st 2020 and December 31th 2020. Chi-square test was used to compare the control rates of serum-corrected Ca, P and iPTH between the present study and DOPPS 4 or Anhui Province in 2014. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to explore the risk factors of the control rates of serum-corrected Ca, P and iPTH. A total of 3 025 MHD patients were recruited in this study, with a mean age of 54.8 (SD: 12.8) years, and 60.1% were males. According to the Chinese Diagnosis and Treatment Guidelines for CKD-MBD, the control rates of serum-corrected Ca, P and iPTH in the present study were 57.9%, 20.0% and 56.0%, respectively. Based on KDOQI guidelines (2003), the control rates of the above indicators were 43.1%, 35.3% and 22.3%, respectively. The control rates of serum-corrected Ca, P and iPTH in this study were lower than those of DOPPS 4 (P < 0.001). Compared to the results of Anhui Province in 2014, the control rate of corrected Ca was higher (P < 0.001) and the control rate of iPTH was lower (P = 0.005). Age, residential area, BMI, dialysis vintage, albumin and hemoglobin levels were factors of serum-corrected Ca, P and iPTH not within target range. The control rates of serum-corrected Ca, P and iPTH in MHD patients in Anhui Province are relatively low. Monitoring and management should be strengthened to improve the prognosis of patients undergoing dialysis.
