"The relationship between lymphocyte subsets, nutritional status and tuberculin reactivity in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis patients".

However, up to date only one study concerning skin test in peritoneal dialysis patients has focused on the issue. Our cross-sectional controlled study was conducted to analyze the correlation of purified protein derivative (PPD) test response with demographical features, nutritional parameters and the distribution of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets in peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis patients Patients and methods Stable 30 hemodialysis (HD) patients (16 men, 14 women) and 30 continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients (17 men, 13 women) were included. Thirty healthy cases (15 men, 15 women) with a mean age of 32.4 +/- 9.4 constituted the control group. Results In the HD group, 14 patients (46.6%) were PPD positive, and in the PD group 16 patients (53.3%) were PPD positive. In the PPD-positive HD patients 64.2% (9/14), and in the PPD-positive PD patients 62.4% (10/16) had an induration of 10 mm or greater. In the control group, 21 of 30 patients (70%) were PPD positive. Comparison of both HD and PD groups with the control group showed significant differences in PPD reactivity (p < 0.01). Albumin levels were significantly high in the control groups (p < 0.01), and cholesterol levels were significantly high in the PD and the control groups (p < 0.05). Transferrin levels were significantly high in the PD (p < 0.01). The lymphocyte counts were significantly high in the control group compared to the HD patients (p < 0.05). The lymphocyte subset percentages CD19 were high in the control groups (p < 0.05), and CD16/56 was significantly high in the PD groups (p < 0.05). All the parameters were also similar between PPD-positive and -negative same groups. Conclusion The prevalence of PPD positivity was lower in the PD and HD groups. The PPD test responses were not related to the peripheral lymphocyte counts, subsets and malnutrition parameters.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessUrology & nephrologyHemodialysisContinuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysisTuberculin testingHuman erythropoietinNutritional statusLatent tuberculosisQuantitative-analysisInfectionDiseaseAdultCorrelation of dataCross-sectional studiesFemaleHumansKidney failure, chronicLymphocyte subsetsMaleMiddle agedNutritional statusPeritoneal dialysis, continuous ambulatoryRenal dialysisTuberculin testYoung adultArticle0005281330000012-s2.0-850837697791167117252632323130Urology & nephrologyHemodialysis patient; Interferon gamma release assay; skin testsAlbüminCD16 antigenCD19 antigenCD56 antigenCholesterolTransferrinTuberculinAdultAlbumin blood levelArticleCholesterol blood levelClinical articleClinical featureContinuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysisControlled studyCross-sectional studyDemographyFemaleHemodialysis patientHumanHuman cellInjection site indurationLymphocyte countMaleMalnutritionNutritional parametersNutritional statusPeripheral lymphocyteT lymphocyte subpopulationTransferrin blood levelTuberculin testBloodChronic kidney failureComparative studyHemodialysisLymphocyte subpopulationMiddle agedPathophysiologyYoung adult
