Parathyroidectomy (PTX) is crucial for reducing mortality and improving the prognosis in the treatment of refractory hyperparathyroidism. However, it is often associated with a number of postoperative complications such as postoperative hypotension, hyperkalemia, and hungry bone syndrome. A previous study demonstrated that low blood pressure influences the patency of autogenous arteriovenous fistulas (AVF). Few studies have examined AVF dysfunction following PTX. This study aimed to identify and describe the risk variables associated with AVF dysfunction after PTX.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Cases of AVF dysfunction after PTX between 2015 and 2021 were studied. Four controls were identified for each patient and were matched for sex and age. Biochemical parameters and blood pressure of the patients before and after PTX were recorded. Risk factors for AVF dysfunction after PTX were identified using conditional logistic regression analysis.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Sixteen patients and 64 controls were included in this study. Baseline demographic and laboratory data were compared. Patients in the AVF dysfunction group had lower levels of postoperative calcium than the controls. After surgery, calcium levels decreased more in patients with AVF dysfunction than in the control group. The decrease in systolic blood pressure (ΔSBP) after PTX was greater in the AVF dysfunction group than that in the control group.

Among patients with ΔSBP > 5.8 mmHg after PTX, the AVF failure rate was significantly greater in patients with diabetes than in those without diabetes.

Subgroup analysis reveals that the positive correlation between DII and the occurrence of abnormal markers of early kidney damage is only observed in individuals with hypertension. Furthermore, an interaction between DII and hypertension was detected in eGFRs&c (OR:1.250[1.042, 1.499], p for interaction = 0.03).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Higher levels of DII may be associated with occurrence of early kidney damage. For individuals with hypertension, avoiding excessive consumption of pro-inflammatory foods may reduce the risk of renal injury.</p>","PeriodicalId":20839,"journal":{"name":"Renal Failure","volume":"46 1","pages":"2294155"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10773634/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139098505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
