Abstract
- Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients are at elevated risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) due to altered lipid profiles. Dyslipidemia is maximal in end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients and there is insufficient data on the impact of hemodialysis on lipid profile. The present study was aimed to evaluate the effect of hemodialysis on lipid profile of CKD patients. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 50 CKD patients on hemodialysis from three randomly selected hospitals of Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India, between March - May 2021. Serum lipid profile was analysed before and after hemodialysis session by using an auto analyzer. The mean values of different lipid parameters before and after hemodialysis were calculated and the difference between them was analyzed by using paired t-test. A p-value of
