- Background. Randomized trials have shown that icodextrin reduces the volume of extra-cellular fluid (ECFv) with variable effects on residual renal function. To explore this fluid shift and its possible mechanisms in more detail, prospectively collected data from one such trial, including measures of inflammation (C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor-a, albumin and low and high molecular weight hyaluronan) ANP (atrial naturetic peptide), an indirect marker of intra-vascular Volume, plasma concentrations of icodextrin metabolites and alpha-amylase activity were analysed. Methods. 50 patients were randomized to either 2,27% glucose or icodextrin (n = 28) ford long exchange following a month run in. Blood samples were obtained at - 1, 0, 3 and 6 months, coincident with measurements Of urine volume and fluid status. Results. In both randomized groups, a significant correlation between the fall in ECFv and the decline in urine Volume was observed (P = 0.001), although the relative drop in urine volume for patients randomized to icodextrin tended to be less. At baseline, ANP was higher in patients with proportionately more ECFv for a given body water or height. Icodextrin patients had non-significantly higher ANP levels at baseline, whereas by 3 (P = 0.026) and 6 months (P = 0.016) these differed between groups due to divergence. There was a correlation between increasing ANP and reduced ECF at 3 months, r = -0.46, P = 0.007. in patients randomized to icodextrin, but not glucose. There were no relationships between fluid Status and any inflammatory markers at any point of the Study, with the exception of albumin at baseline, r = -0.39, P = 0.007. Amylase activities at -1 month and baseline were highly correlated, r = 0.89, P < 0.0001. Within patients, concentrations of icodextrin metabolites were highly correlated: the only predictor of between-patient variability oil multivariate analysis was body weight. There was no relationship between plasma concentrations of icodextrin metabolites and any of the other clinical parameters, including change in daily Ultrafiltration, urine volume, fluid or inflammatory status. Conclusions. This analysis supports observational data that changes in fluid status are associated with changes ill urine volume. Icodextrin was not associated with a greater fall ill urine Output despite its larger effect on ECFv Changes ill fluid status Could not be explained or did not appeal to influence systemic inflammation. Nor call they be explained by individual variability in plasma concentrations of icodextrin that are in turn inversely proportional to the volume of distribution.

- Myeloperoxidase (MPO), which is secreted during activation of neutrophils, may serve as one mechanistic link among persistent inflammation, oxidative stress, and cardiovascular disease. This study related MPO activity to inflammatory and oxidative stress biomarkers, comorbidity, and ongoing medication in prevalent hemodialysis (HD) patients. In a cross-sectional evaluation of 115 prevalent (vintage 25 mo) HD patients (62 men; 63 +/- 1 yr), data on comorbidity (Davies score), diabetes, medication (statins and antiltypertensive drugs), nutritional status (subjective global assessment), blood lipids (cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides), inflammatory biomarkers (serum albumin, C-reactive protein, TNF-alpha, and IL-6), oxidative stress biomarkers (pentosidine, 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine, and MPO activity) were recorded. Patients with MPO activity greater than the median had significantly (P < 0.05) lower serum albumin levels (33.2 +/- 0.7 versus 35.0 +/- 0.5 g/L), higher 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine levels (1.26 +/- 0.08 versus 1.05 +/- 0.06 ng/mb, and a lower prevalence of statin treatment (18 versus 36%). Therefore, the median MPO activity was significantly (P < 0.05) lower (17.7 versus 26.6 Delta OD630/min per mg protein) in the subgroup of 31 HD patients with ongoing statin treatment. In a multiple regression model, correction for the impact of age, gender, vintage, serum cholesterol, serum albumin, comorbidity, diabetes, and statin use, only diabetes (P < 0.01) and statin use (P < 0.01) were significantly associated to MPO activity. Fourteen patients who had diabetes and were receiving statin treatment had markedly (P = 0.001) lower median (19.9 versus 41.2 Delta OD630/min per mg protein) MPO activity compared with 18 who had diabetes and were not taking statins. This cross-sectional study suggests that both diabetes and statin treatment affect MPO activity in prevalent HD patients.
