    • Inflammatory markers predict mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients, whereas a possible association between oxidative stress (OS) markers and survival is less clear. We assessed the impact on all-cause mortality of baseline inflammatory [high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and interleukin-6 (IL-6)] and OS markers (advanced oxidation protein products, pentosidine, homocysteine) in 112 HD patients. We found no significant correlations between inflammatory and OS markers. During the 5.5 years of follow-up, 51 patients died. In a Kaplan-Meier analysis, the survival rate was reduced in patients with IL-6 higher than the median (IL-6 >4.2 pg/ml) (log- rank = 6.47; p = 0.01), in diabetics (log-rank = 12.26; p = 0.0005) and in older patients (log-rank = 11.22; p = 0.0008). Moreover, in Cox analysis only IL-6 and age were independently associated with mortality. We conclude that in this group of prevalent Brazilian HD patients, IL-6 was a better predictor of survival than other inflammatory and OS markers.
