Background In hemodialysis patients, the intradialytic rise in blood pressure (BP) is
associated with increased mortality risk. However, the mechanisms of this adverse effect are …

Background: Hypotension in the haemodialysis patient can have a detrimental effect on
wellbeing and management of this complication uses a significant proportion of nursing …

Background. Disturbances of functional properties of large arteries contribute to increased
cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in patients with end‐stage renal disease. However, it …

Objective: To study association between aortic stiffness and intradialytic hypertension in
maintenance hemodialysis patients. Design and Method: A cross sectional study was used …

Introduction Patients with end-stage renal disease are at higher risk of cardiovascular
morbidity and mortality, a risk mediated in part by increased aortic stiffness. Arterial stiffness …

Objective: The effects of acute hemodialysis session on pulse wave velocity are conflicting.
The aim of the current study was to assess the acute effects of ultrafiltration on the aortic …

Aim Haemodynamic stability of patients during haemodialysis (HD) sessions is of pivotal
importance and accurate determination of dry weight remains a challenge. Little information …

BACKGROUND: Fluid overload is the main determinant of hypertension and left ventricular
hypertrophy in hemodialysis patients. However, assessment of fluid overload can be difficult …

Inflammation, arteriosclerosis, and cardiovascular therapy in hemodialysis patients.
Background Aortic stiffness and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) are predictors of mortality …

Background: In this study, we focused on whether volume overload plays a role in the
development of arterial stiffness. Methods: Seventy-three prevalent hemodialysis patients …
