Abstract

THE AIM of the work was to determine the character of the relationship between the bone mineral density in different parts of the skeleton and pathology of the valves of the left half of the heart in patients treated by chronic hemodialysis. PATIENTS AND METHODS. Two-energy X-ray absorptiometry of 3 parts of the skeleton assessed by Z-criterion was performed in 58 patients (m/f – 29/29, mean age 49.8 ± 13.3 years) treated by chronic bicarbonate hemodialysis (HD) on average for 74.3 ± 70.1 months. In addition to general clinical and laboratory indices in all the patients USI was performed and in 40 patients - 24 hours’ monitoring of ECG and of arterial pressure. RESULTS. Patients with low bone mineral density (BMD) of the forearm more often had alterations of the mitral valve (infiltration and calcification; F=3.13, p anova = 0.035). CONCLUSION. More pronounced alterations of the mitral valve in patients with low BMD of the forearm appear to be due to general risk factors of the development of these conditions: prolonged hemodialysis therapy and hyperparathyroidism.
