Association Between Depression and Iron Metabolism in Hemodialysis Patients

Completed
Conditions
Hemodialysis
Registration Number
NCT03096626
Lead Sponsor
Yoshihiro Tsuji
Brief Summary

This study assesses the association of depression symptoms and iron metabolism in patients undergoing hemodialysis.

Detailed Description

The Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), second version, was used to quantify the levels of depression. Mean age, duration of HD, hemoglobin levels, serum ferritin levels, serum iron levels, TSAT, TIBC, serum albumin levels, CRP and energy consumption (kcal/week) were included in the model as multivariate variables. Backward stepwise logistic regression (ROC) analysis was performed.
