105. Anaemia management and cardiomyopathy in renal failure

Author

Donne, Rosemary L. and Foley, Robert N.

Abstract

Patients with renal failure are at great cardiovascular risk, with attributable death rates 10–20 times those of an age‐matched population. Most patients develop cardiomyopathy, with a continuum of left ventricular dilation (LV), hypertrophy and systolic dysfunction. Untreated, these conditions predispose to cardiac failure, a dominant and highly lethal cardiovascular syndrome in this population. Several prospective observational studies have demonstrated anaemia to be an independent risk factor for each step in the process: haemodynamic overload, maladaptive LV enlargement, LV burn‐out and death. Recent evidence suggests that physiological haemoglobin targets (e.g. >12 g/dl) may be optimal for maintaining cardiac health and quality of life, especially in patients without pre‐existing clinical cardiac disease. Ongoing studies should determine whether a physiologically targeted approach to anaemia management reduces the burden of cardiomyopathy in renal failure.

Abstract

During investigation of an outbreak of Japanese encephalitis (JE) in the Torres Strait, Australia, in 2000, mosquitoes were collected in Badu Island community and at a newly established communal piggery about 3 km from the community. A total of 94,285 mosquitoes, comprising 91,240 (96.8%) unengorged females, 1630 (1.7%) blood-engorged females and 1415 (1.5%) males, were processed for virus isolation. One isolate of JE virus was obtained from Culex gelidus, with a minimum infection rate of 12.4:1000. This is the first isolate of JE virus from Cx. gelidus in the Australasian region. No isolates were obtained from Cx. annulirostris, the primary implicated Australian JE vector. Analysis of mosquito host-feeding patterns, using gel diffusion, demonstrated that Cx. annulirostris and 5 other species fed predominately on mammals. Analysis of blood-fed mosquitoes collected within the community demonstrated that the proportion of Cx. annulirostris feeding on pigs in 2000 (2.3%) was significantly lower than that for the 1995-97 period (31.3%). The removal of the pigs from Badu Island community has limited the contact between potential amplifying hosts and mosquitoes, thus potentially reducing the risk of transmission of JE virus to the human population.
