Popis: En-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a growing public health problem. The atherosclerotic cardiovascular complications are the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in the ESRD. In this study, we sought to quantify the levels of thrombo-inflammatory biomarkers in an ESRD patients in comparison to healthy controls to determine their relevance in thrombo-inflammation and adverse outcomes. The levels of D-Dimer, C-reactive protein (CRP), plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) antigen, functional PAI-1, thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor, tissue plasminogen activator, von Willebrand factor, and anti-PF4 IgG and microparticle (MP) activity were quantified by using commercially available ELISA immunoassays for each of the ESRD ( n = 73) and control plasma samples ( n = 10). The levels of endogenous glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) were quantified by utilizing a Heparin Red Probe (Redprobes UG, Germany). The collected data were analyzed to demonstrate the relationship between various parameters. All the tested biomarkers were increased in ESRD patients in comparison to healthy controls ( p < 0.05). These biomarkers have shown significant correlations within each other except for anti-PF4 Ig G and MPs. The CRP levels were significantly higher in patients who had coronary artery disease (CAD) ( p < 0.05), but there was no significant difference in other biomarkers according to the cardiovascular outcomes. In the multivariate analysis, the CRP (odds ratio: 1.19; 95% confidence interval: 1.01–1.41; p : 0.03) value was an independent predictor of CAD. In this study, we demonstrated increased levels of 10 different biomarkers in ESRD patients. The CRP levels can be a good predictor of CAD in ESRD patients.
