Abstract Content: Introduction, Method, Result, Conclusion

Objective. Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) has been introduced as a cardiovascular disease predictor which may increase in hamodialysis patients. As there are many risk factors in the uremic state that theoretically lead to increase in CIMT, this study was aimed to determine risk factors of CIMT increase in a group of hemodialysis patients included parathyroid hormon.

Materials and Methods. 31 hemodialysis patients underwent ultrasonography for measurement of CIMT. Correlation of demographic, clinical, and laboratory factors  with CIMT was studied. Carotid intima-media thickness was measured by one cardiologist in the bilateral common carotid artery.

Results.  The mean CIMT was significantly higher in men compared to women on dialysis. There was a positive correlation between CIMT and age . No correlation was found between CIMT and other studied variables included parathyroid hormon. Conclusions. Carotid intima-media thickness mainly affected by traditional cardiovascular risk factors and uremic risk factors did not specifically affect CIMT.
