Hyperlipidemia, oxidative stress, and intima media thickness in children with chronic kidney disease

Background The roles of dyslipidemia and oxidative stress in the early phases of atherosclerosis were tested in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Intima media thickness of common carotid arteries (cIMT) is used as a measure of early atherosclerosis. Methods Fifty-two pediatric CKD patients...

Zusammenfassung:Background The roles of dyslipidemia and oxidative stress in the early phases of atherosclerosis were tested in children with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Intima media thickness of common carotid arteries (cIMT) is used as a measure of early atherosclerosis. Methods Fifty-two pediatric CKD patients were enrolled in the study (10 with chronic renal failure [CRF], 22 with a renal transplant [RT], 20 with chronic hemodialysis (cHD) patients, and 36 healthy children (control group, CG). Lipid status, oxidative stress, and paraoxonase 1 (PON1) status were assessed. cIMT was measured by ultrasound, adjusted for age and sex, and presented as standard deviation scores (SDS). Results Children with CKD had disturbed lipid content, which was most pronounced in cHD children, with higher free cholesterol and triglycerides compared with healthy children. Oxidative stress was markedly increased (malodialdehyde [MDA, μmol/L]: CRF 1.50 ± 0.26, RT 1.55 ± 0.40, cHD 1.77 ± 0.34, CG 0.97 ± 0.33, p
