Journal Article
Nutritional status evaluation in maintenance hemodialysis patients
Liviu Segall,Adrian Covic,Nicoleta Mardare,Sorin Ungureanu,Simona Marian,Mihaela Busuioc,Ionut Nistor,Roxana Enache,Gabriel Veisa,Maria Covic +9 more
TL;DR: Evaluating the nutritional status and the possible risk factors for malnutrition in hemodialysis patients by anthropometry, biochemical tests and bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) found the male patients had a higher mean muscle mass and a lower fat mass than the female patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships between blood pressure variability and left ventricular parameters in haemodialysis and renal transplant patients
TL;DR: It is suggested that reduced diurnal and short‐term BP variability is cross‐sectionally associated with a dilated, heavier left ventricle (LV) with worse systolic function, and BPV may independently contribute to the abnormal LV structure and function commonly seen in uraemia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel percutaneous interventional therapies in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: an integrative review
TL;DR: This review aimed to summarize current knowledge and discuss future directions of the newest interventional percutaneous therapies of HFpEF, finding LV expanders and LA pacing therapy present with a smaller clinical benefit compared with IASD, but they are safe, without any major adverse outcomes currently noted.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of periodontal disease on physical and psychological domains in long-term hemodialysis patients: a cross-sectional study
Gabriel Veisa,Alexandra Tasmoc,Ionut Nistor,Liviu Segall,Dimitrie Siriopol,Sorina Solomon,Mihaela Dora Donciu,Luminita Voroneanu,Andra Nastasa,Adrian Covic +9 more
TL;DR: The gingival and periodontal index was associated with low QoL, both on physical and on mental components, in hemodialysis patients with end-stage kidney disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low serum pancreatic enzyme levels predict mortality and are associated with malnutrition–inflammation–atherosclerosis syndrome in patients with chronic kidney disease
Abdullah Ozkok,Omer Celal Elcioglu,Tahsin Cukadar,Ali Bakan,Gulsah Sasak,Kadir Gokhan Atilgan,Sabahat Alisir,Mehmet Kanbay,Adrian Covic,Ali Riza Odabas +9 more
TL;DR: Serum amylase activity was found to be an independent predictor of mortality in ESRD patients and may be regarded as a novel component of the malnutrition–inflammation–atherosclerosis syndrome.
