Relationship between red blood cell distribution width with non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring and body composition in peritoneal dialysis patients by YAO Yun-jiao, WU Yong-gui

“…Objective To investigate the relationship between the red blood cell distribution width（RDW） with non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring and body composition in peritoneal dialysis（PD） patients,and its applied value in PD patients.Methods Forty-four hospitalized PD patients were retrospectively reviewed,and 30 cases of healthy people served as a control group.The clinical characteristics and parameters such as RDW,brain natriuretic peptide（BNP）,N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide（NT-proBNP）,non-invasive hemodynamics and body composition were collected.The differences between two groups and the relationship between RDW and other parameters were analyzed.Results The RDW,BNP,and NT-proBNP in PD group were significantly higher than in the control group with the difference being statistically significant（P<0.01）.ECW/TBW was significantly higher,and body fat mass,body mass index,percent body fat,visceral fat area and body-hip ratio were significantly lower in PD group than those in the control group（P<0.05）.RDW in PD group was positively correlated with BNP and NT-proBNP（r₁ = 0.417,r₂ = 0.396;P<0.01）,and BNP was positively correlated with NT-proBNP（r = 0.891,P<0.01）.RDW was positively correlated with HR and STR（r₁ = 0.343,r₂ = 0.364,P<0.05）,and negatively with CI,SV,SI,EF,VI（r₁ =-0.277,r₂ =-0.399,r₃ =-0.437,r₄ =-0.335,r₅ =-0.338,P<0.05）.In PD group RDW was positively correlated with ECW/TBW（n = 0.300,P<0.05）.Multivariate linear regression method showed that RDW was associated with ECW/TBW（t = 2.03,P<0.05）.Conclusions RDW can be used as a predictor of poor prognosis in PD patients,and NT-proBNP can be used to assess the cardiac function in dialysis patients instead of BNP.…”
