Abstrakt: Background: End-stage renal disease is considered to influence coronary microcirculation and left ventricular (LV) diastolic function. We investigated whether differences exist in LV diastolic function indices and coronary flow reserve (CFR) between patients on hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD). Methods: A complete transthoracic echocardiographic study was performed on 21 HD and 22 PD patients and LV diastolic function was evaluated. CFR was estimated using transthoracic Doppler echocardiography on the left anterior descending artery, during high-dose dypiridamole infusion. Results: HD and PD groups did not differ regarding Doppler-derived diastolic indices, but they significantly differed in the frequency of severe LV hypertrophy (38.1% in HD vs 4.5% in PD group, p = 0.009) and grade II diastolic dysfunction (42.9% in HD vs 4.5% in PD group, p = 0.004). No patient had restrictive filling pattern. There was no difference in the prevalence of arterial hypertension and diabetes mellitus in patients with grade II vs less than grade II dysfunction. Mean CFR was similar in the HD and PD groups (2.25 ± 0.65 vs 2.36 ± 0.76, p = 0.635) and lower in patients with grade II diastolic dysfunction (1.87 ± 0.43 vs 2.44 ± 0.72, p = 0.023) and diabetes (1.70 ± 0.59 vs 2.39 ± 0.68, p = 0.04). LV mass index was negatively associated with CFR (r = − 0.308, p = 0.045). Conclusion: Patients on HD had more advanced diastolic dysfunction compared to PD, independently of the presence of hypertension and diabetes. CFR did not differ between HD and PD patients, but it was significantly lower in diabetics and in patients with more advanced diastolic dysfunction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
