Investigation of the relationship between intradialytic hypotension during hemodialysis and serum syndecan-1 concentration.

ABSTRACT: Intradialytic hypotension and arrhythmias are complications of hemodialysis. They are associated with decreased intravascular volume due to reduced ultrafiltration volume, cardiac function, and arterial tone. The vascular endothelial glycocalyx, which exists on the surface of healthy vascular endothelial cells and maintains vascular permeability, has been suggested to be impaired by hemodialysis. This single-center retrospective study evaluated the association between syndecan-1, an endothelial glycocalyx dysfunction marker, and complications of hemodialysis. We enrolled 92 patients who underwent outpatient hemodialysis at Gifu Seiryu Hospital from April to July 2022 (346 hemodialysis sessions). The median duration and time of hemodialysis were 40 months and 4.1 h, respectively. Median ser
