Conducted Markov modeling and comparison of the consequences of kidney transplantation and hemodialysis in terms of treatment costs and the number of added years of life for a cohort of 1,675 patients were carried out. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio is defined.Results: Results: Based on the results of modeling, it was determined that among 1,675 patients with end-stage kidney disease in Ukraine, 1,248 (74.5%) will remain alive after 10 years of treatment when kidney transplantation technology is used. The highest costs will be in the first year ($25,864), and in subsequent years - about $5,769. With the use of hemodialysis technology, only 728 patients (43.5%) will be alive after 10 years, the cost of treating one patient per year is $11,351. The use of kidney transplantation adds 3191 years of quality life for 1675 patients compared with hemodialysis (1.9 years per patient).Conclusion: Conclusions: Kidney transplantation is an economically feasible technology for Ukraine, as the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio is $4694, which is 1.04 times higher than Ukraine's GDP per capita. The results of the study allow us to recommend that decision-makers in countries with a low and medium level of economic development give priority in financing to renal transplantation.","PeriodicalId":23643,"journal":{"name":"Wiadomosci lekarskie","volume":"77 4","pages":"765-771"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141311778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The glucose level, circulating immune complexes (CICs), concentration of immunoglobulin (Ig) A, interleukin (IL)-8 and IL-33 levels were determined in the blood serum of patients.Results: Results: QoL of patients after coronavirus disease is significantly deteriorated: patients note a significant limitation in physical functioning, pain perception, vitality, role-physical and social functioning and mental health.
