摘要
Background and aim: Chronic kidney disease may lead to left ventricular dysfunction. Early detection of cardiovascular disease in children with chronic kidney disease is essential to prevent cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in early adulthood. This study aimed to document the dysfunction using methods such as two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography in the early stage. Methods: A total of 34 patients diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (mean age +/- standard deviation, 10.5 +/- 4.1 years) and 37 sex- and age-matched (mean age 9.8 +/- 4.2 years) healthy controls were studied. The results of the two groups were compared along with those of the published studies. Results: The echocardiography measurements had no significant difference in the end-diastolic and end-systolic diameter values of left ventricular, ejection fraction, shortening fraction, mitral E value, mitral A value, and E/A ratio between the groups. Pulmonary artery systolic and diastolic pressure and left ventricular mass index were significantly higher in the patient group (p < 0.01). The longitudinal global strain values in the apical four-chamber, three-chamber, and two-chamber views and the total global strain values were significantly lower in the patients (p < 0.01). The circumferential global strain values in the apical, mid, basal, and total global strain were lower in the patient group, but this difference was statistically significant in the apical global and total global strain values (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Speckle-tracking echocardiography might help identify subclinical left ventricular dysfunction in patients with chronic kidney disease with unremarkable conventional echocardiography.
