LEVELS ANTIINFAMMATORY CYTOKINES (ІL-4, ІL-10) IN MAINTENCE HEMODIALYSIS PATIENTS DEPENDING ON EXPRESSED ANAEMIA AND CHARACTER DEFEAT OF KIDNEY

Abstract

Aims: The purpose of the present study was to compare the levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines in patients with chronic kidney disease, prolonged sessions of hemodialysis, depending on the severity of anemia. Materials and methods: We investigated 155 patients with chronic kidney disease, prolonged sessions of hemodialysis and anemia (mean age 46.4±12.4). Patients were divided into 4 groups depending on expressed of anemia: in the I-st (n=22) group – patients with the level of hemoglobin over 110g/l, in the II (n=66) group hemoglobin 90 - 110g/l, in the III (n=44) group hemoglobin 70-89 g/l, in the IV (n=22) group hemoglobin
