Objective: to evaluate the relationship between IL-10 and serum bicarbonate and metabolic acidosis in prevalent hemodialysis patients. Methods: Type of Study: prospective case control study. Study Setting: The study was conducted at Ain Shams University hospital hemodialysis unit. Sample Size: 40 patients with ESRD on regular HD and 20 healthy control. Study Population: Maintenance hemodialysis patients Results: The results suggested that serum IL-10 level was significantly higher in chronic HD patients than healthy subjects and this is compatible with the idea that higher levels of IL-10 are needed in HD patients to limit their strong inflammatory activation associated with uremia and the dialysis technique. There was no significant differences in IL-10 levels noticed between patients with different causes of ESRD. This study also showed negative correlation between IL-10 and serum bicarbonate levels. We also found that there was significant positive correlation between baseline levels of IL-10 and CRP which may be because of dialysis inadequacy that is associated with chronic inflammatory state resulting in high CRP levels. Conclusion: The incidence and prevalence of ESRD have risen dramatically which may be due to the increasing prevalence of diabetes and hypertension. Although regular hemodialysis decreases levels of mortality in these patients, it is still considered a condition associated with inflammation. The current study revealed high IL-10 levels among HD patients who had metabolic acidosis. Further research needs to be done to reveal beneficial effects of these finding. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
