OBJECTIVE: Vascular calcifications and chronic inflammation are the main reasons of the decreased life span and prevalent morbidity for patients on renal replacement therapy due to chronic renal failure. Scoring systems ...

Abstract Diabetic Kidney Disease (DKD), a serious complication of diabetes mellitus, is a leading cause of end-stage renal disease and a significantly contributes to cardiovascular morbidity. This study investigated the ...

Patients with end-stage-renal disease (ESRD) experience a high cardiovascular mortality and cardiovascular risk factors such as obesity, hyperlipidemia and hypertension are very common. Recent epidemiological research ha...

Objective: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased mortality and high cardiovascular (CV) risk. Slow heart rate recovery (HRR) is an index of cardiac autonomic dysfunction and also a prognostic tool for...

Background The comorbidity of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and depression has been well established, as depression usually presents simultaneously with CVD risk factors. However, the potential association between cumulat...

Objective Patients with SLE have increased risk of both clinical cardiovascular disease (CVD) and subclinical atherosclerosis. Reports have shown that controlling CVD risk factors reduces subclinical plaque progression i...

Abstract Background Infection is a significant complication of diabetes, yet comprehensive assessments of risk factors for infections in individuals with diabetes are scarce. We aimed to identify risk factor profiles and...

Abstract Intubation-related pneumonia negatively affects patient outcomes. Aspiration pneumonia occurring after extubation due to swallowing dysfunction, conceptualized as postextubation pneumonia (PEP), remains underrec...

Cardiovascular diseases are the major causes of death in renal transplant patients. Arterial stiffness measurement is a risk marker for cardiovascular events. The recipient’s age, blood pressure, diabetes, hyperlipidem...

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease associated with increased proliferation of the epidermis. Combination of genetic, immunological and environmental factors underlies the skin lesion. Until recently, psoria...

ABSTRACT Background and Aim Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in both developed and developing countries, causing significant healthcare system disruptions due to inadequate access, high costs, and g...

End stage renal disease (ESRD) is known to be associated with well known risk factors of cardiovascular disease (CVD) like hypertension and dyslipidemia. The aim of this study is to compare 2 groups of ESRD patients, who...

Abstract Background Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) continue to be the leading cause of mortality worldwide, accounting for approximately 19.8 million deaths in 2022, with ischemic heart disease and stroke responsible for...

Background: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Understanding diabetes patients' knowledge and perception of CVD risk factors is es...

Abstract Background Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are a major global health problem, causing 17.9 million deaths in 2019, with 85% due to myocardial infarction and stroke. This study explores psychological and behaviour...

OBJECTIVE: Renal transplantation is the treatment of choice in end-stage renal diseases. Long-term allograft function has remained steady in deceased donor kidney transplantation (DDKTx) during recent decades. In this st...

Today, chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a world-wide public health problem. Losing kidney function and occurance of cardiovascular disease (CVD) are inevitablely the main clinical outcomes. Increasing evidence suggested t...

AIM: We aimed to investigate especially early stage non traditional cardiovascular risk factors in end stage renal failure patients who were in Continued Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) programme in our center. M...

Abstract Objective Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) have been increasingly recognized as potential predictors of cardiovascular disease (CVD), alongside established factors such as hypertension. This study examined t...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most prevalent complication of diabetes, leading to functional impairment and a decline in patients' quality of life. The objectives of the present...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Hypertension (HTN) is a major non‐communicable disease and a leading risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality globally. In Bangladesh, regional disparities in HTN prevalence a...

Abstract Background Discordance between small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (sdLDL-C) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels is common. Whether this easily calculated parameter, derived from r...
