Öğe Glycaemic control and complications in haemodialysis patients: the TURK-HEMODIAB Study(Oxford Univ Press, 2026) Gungor, Ozkan; Korucu, Berfu; Oguz, Ebru Gok; Eren, Necmi; Ural, Zeynep; Dheir, Hamad; Tatar, ErhanBackground The most common cause of end-stage kidney disease is diabetes mellitus (DM). The most commonly used renal replacement therapy in Turkey and in many countries around the world is haemodialysis (HD). Glycaemia control is important in these populations. In this study we aimed to screen for glycaemic control and complications in a large population of diabetic HD patients in Turkey. Methods A total of 16 043 patients were screened in 253 dialysis centres in Turkey and 5038 diabetic HD patients were included in the study. At participating centres, patients' diabetes history, complications, medications, haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and other laboratory data were reviewed and recorded by nephrologists. Results The average age of the patients was 64.0 +/- 11.2 years and 56% were male. The mean HbA1c was 7.4 +/- 1.5%. Patients were divided into three groups according to the HbA1c level (<6.5%, 6.5-8% and >8%). As the HbA1c levels increased, the mean systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure increased significantly. In addition, as the HbA1c levels increased, the number of patients with coronary artery disease, patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery and the rate of patients with diabetic retinopathy and vision loss increased. Diabetic foot disease and amputation rates were also higher in the group with poor glycaemic control. The number of patients using intensive or mixed insulin was also higher in the group with high HbA1c levels. In ordinal logistic regression analysis, age significantly decreased and higher body mass index slightly increased the risk of a higher HbA1c. Also, the need for a diabetic diet was greater in those with high HbA1c levels. Conclusion Our study highlights that the target values for diabetic HD patients in Turkey are partially compatible with the 2022 Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes guidelines for diabetes management. Nevertheless, more effort and teamwork are needed to improve patient outcomes.Öğe Pregnancy and its outcomes in hemodialysis patients in Turkey(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2022) Dheir, Hamad; Gungor, Ozkan; Ulu, Memnune Sena; Oguz, Ebru Gok; Eren, Necmi; Altunoren, Orcun; Tatar, ErhanBackground/aim: This study aimed to investigate pregnancy frequency and evaluate the factors affecting live births in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Materials and methods: Female HD patients whose pregnancy was retrospectively reported between January 1, 2014, and December 31, 2019. The duration of HD, primary disease, and the information on whether the pregnancy resulted in abortion, stillbirth, or live birth, whether the HD duration was prolonged after diagnosing the pregnancy and whether it accompanied preeclampsia were recorded. Results: In this study, we reached 9038 HD female patients' data in the study. A total of 235 pregnancies were detected in 145 patients. The mean age was 35.42 (35 +/- 7.4) years. The mean age at first gestation was 30.8 +/- 6.5 years. The average birth week was 32 (28 -36) weeks. A total of 53.8% (no = 78) of the patients had live birth, 51.7% (no = 70) had at least one abortion in the first 20 weeks, and 13.1% (no = 19) had at least one stillbirth after 20 weeks. The rate of patients' increased numbers of dialysis sessions during pregnancy was 71.7%. The abortion rate was 22.4% in those with increased HD sessions, whereas 79.3% in those not increased HD sessions (p < 0.001). Live birth frequency was 67.2% in the increased HD sessions group and 3.4% in those who did not differ in HD sessions (p < 0.001). Conclusion: For the first time, we reported pregnancy outcomes in HD female patients, covering all regions of Turkey. It has been observed that; increasing the number of HD sessions in dialysis patients will decrease fetal and maternal complications and increase live birth rates.Öğe PROGNOSTIC FACTORS IN RENAL AND PATIENT SURVIVAL IN ANTI-NEUTROPHIL CYTOPLASMIC ANTIBODY ASSOCIATED VASCULITIS(Oxford Univ Press, 2023) Oguz, Ebru Gok; Gursu, Meltem; Gullulu, Mustafa; Sahin, Hatice; Piskinpasa, Serhan Vahit; Akcay, Omer Faruk; Cetinkaya, Hakki[Abstract Not Available]
