Popis: WOS:000335937700002 Background: Abnormalities in atrial conduction times and mechanical functions are considered as independent predictors of atrial fibrillation. However, there is no data in literature about functional parameters and electromechanical delay intervals in nondiabetic, non-hypertensive hemodialysis (HD) patients. We aimed to study atrial electromechanical conduction times and mechanical functions in this population. Methods: Forty-two non-diabetic, normotensive hemodialysis patients and age and sex matched control subjects have been enrolled in the study. Standard and Tissue Doppler Echocardiography have been performed before mid-week dialysis session for HD group and on admission for control group. Results: PA(lateral,), PA(septum) durations of the hemodialysis group were significantly longer than control group (70.6 +/- 9.1 vs 55.3 +/- 2.7, 50.8 +/- 5.2 vs 44.4 +/- 2.1; p
