Coronary heart diseases (CHD) are the main cause of mortality in hemodialysis patients. Lipid profile abnormality in hemodialysis patients including hypertriglyceridemia, normal total cholesterol, modest decline in HDL rise in LDL are effected by omega 3 speculative. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of omega 3 fatty acid on lipid profile in hemodialysis patients. this clinical trial was performed on 16 hemodialysis patients with hypertriglyceridemia. They were asked to consume 2 gr pearl omega 3 each day for 3 months. Lipid profile was obtained by enzymatic method before and after treatment with omega 3 and the data were analysed. Consumtion of omega 3 for 3 months lowered the serum triglyceride (p<0.05). HDL increased but there was no change in total cholesterol and LDL. Consumtion of omega 3 lowered the risk of CHD in hemodialysis patients by reducing the serum triglyceride.

Background and Hemodialysis is known as one of the maintenance treatment methods in the chronic kidney failure patients. Since insufficient dialysis causes the death of such patients, Therefore determination of dialysis efficiency in such patients is very important. Âim of this study was to determine the dialysis efficiency in the patients referring to fatemeh zahra dialysis center of sari. This was a descriptive study. Âfter sampling, BÜN level prior to and after dialysis and prior to the second dialysis was determined. Serum albumin, hemoglobin, keratinin and cholesterol prior to and also weight after second dialysis were measured. Üsing the available formula of dialysis efficiency, evaluation was done. Spss and pyerson correlation index were used for statistical analysis. Âfter analysis of the results obtained from 50 patients under study, moderate KT/V was 25% plus 97%. 58% of the patients had the following KT/V. This low KT/V in 66% could be due to insufficient administration and improper dialysis at the next dialysis. Âlso in this study using pyerson correlation between KT/V and Tac urea ÏP>0.001 KT/V, PRÜ (P<0001, KT/V and PÇR) and PÇR (R=0.3 and P<0.4) KT/V and albumin (P<0.03 R=0.03) there was significant relationship. But between KT/V and hemoglobin, cholesterol and creatinine there was no significant relationship. Çonclusion: This findings reveal that, majority of the patients do not recieve proper dialysis, which can be due to insufficient introduction of blood. Ând also ÇHL. Hb. Çr tests alone do not fulfil the dialysis purpose.

Background and Renal osteodystrophy (RÔD) is the skeletal response to long-standing chronic renal disease. Nowadays with improved dialysis techniques and renal transplants. Survival rates in chronic renal failure (ÇRF) atients has increased and RÔD is more freguent. Ïn this study we evaluated the incidence of RÔD in ÇRF patients who were under dialysis in Fateme-Zahra hospital in sari in 1998. Â descriptive study performed on all patients who were dialysed regularly (three times weekly, 4 hours at each session) and accepted to be evaluated were choosen. Ïn every patient radiographic films from thorax, pelvis, vertebra, skull, hands and kness were taken and evaluated for positive findings by a radiologist. 41 patients, 22(54%) males and 19(46%) females with mean age of 49 years (16-70 years) were evaluated. 23(56%) patients showed radiographic abnormalities of RÔD (61% males and 39% females). Çonclusion: Ïncidence if RÔD in our patients at Fateme-Zahra hospital is relatively high. We recommend, screening programs for chronic renal disease in high risk propulation, because with early diagnosis we can protect them from ÇRF and RÔD.
