NCT01169961

Brief Summary

The purpose of the present study is to evaluate in hemodialysis patients, who have elevated serum ferritin ( \>2000ng/ml) and transferrin saturation (TSAT) \>30%, iron deposition in the heart, pancreas, liver and spleen using the T2\* MRI technique. In addition, we will also measure the free iron forms in the plasma and LPI, LCI in red blood cells, platelets and PMN, in addition to serum hepcidin, TSAT, serum ferritin, CRP and oxidative stress parameters (ROS,GSH, and malonyldialdehyde (MDA).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • T2*MRI (magnetic resonance imaging)

    This method is commonly used to evaluate and monitor iron deposition in major organs (iron overload) in hemodialysis patients with end stage renal failure

    one year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Iron parameters (FERRITIN, TRANSFERREN SAT ,LPI HEPCIDIN,LCI,CRP,OXIDATIVE STRESS PARAMETERS(ROS,GSH,MDA)

    ONE YEAR

Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

hemodialysis patients, who have elevated serum ferritin ( \>2000ng/ml) and transferrin saturation (TSAT) \>30%

You may qualify if:

  • patients for study are \> 50 years of age,
  • on chronic hemodialysis for at least one year,
  • with serum ferritin levels \> 2000 ng/ml and TSAT \> 30%.

You may not qualify if:

  • malignancies,
  • any active infection requiring systemic antibiotic therapy, and
  • hospitalization within the two weeks before screening.
