文摘

We used arterial-spin labeling (ASL) MR imaging, a non-invasive technique to evaluate cerebral blood flow (CBF) changes in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD), and nondialysis ESRD patients compared with healthy cohort. Ninety seven ESRD patients including 32 PD patients (20 male, 12 female; mean age 33 ± 8 years), 33 HD patients (22 male, 11 female; mean age 33 ± 8 years) and 32 nondialysis patients (20 male, 12 female; mean age 35 ± 7 years) and 31 age- and gender-matched healthy controls (20 male, 11 female; mean age 32 ± 8 years) were included in this study. All subjects underwent ASL MR imaging, neuropsychologic tests, and ESRD patients underwent laboratory testing. CBF values were compared among PD, HD, nondialysis patients and control groups. Correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis were performed to investigate the association between CBF values and hemoglobin, neuropsychologic test results, serum creatinine, urea levels, disease duration, and dialysis duration. Elevated CBFs of whole brain region, gray matter, and white matter were found in all ESRD patient groups compared with healthy controls (all P < 0.001). However, compared with non-dialysis ESRD patients, both PD and HD patients had widespread regional CBF decline mainly in bilateral frontal and anterior cingulate cortices. There were no differences for CBF between PD and HD patient groups. Negative correlations were observed between mean CBFs of whole brain region, gray matter, and white matter and the hemoglobin level in all ESRD patients. Multiple linear regression showed elevated CBF of multiple brain areas correlated with some neuropsychological tests in ESRD patients (all P < 0.001, AlphaSim corrected), but the association was not present or shrank after adjusting hemoglobin level. This study found that mean CBF was predominantly increased in patients with ESRD, which correlated with their hemoglobin level and neurocognitive disorders. There were no differences of CBF change and cognitive function between PD and HD ESRD patients with long-term treatment. The degree of anemia may be a predominant risk factor for cognitive impairment in these ESRD patients.KeywordsEnd-stage renal disease (ESRD)Cerebral blood flow (CBF)Peritoneal dialysis (PD)Hemodialysis (HD)Arterial-spin labeling (ASL)
