Abstract

Background Bone abnormalities are frequently developed in hemodialysis patients and people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It results from aberrant bone turnover and a decline in bone mineral density (BMD). Aim and objectives: With the help of dual energy X-ray absorptiometry in this study, poor bone mineral density in CKD patients at Al-Hussein University Hospital will be analysed for prevalence and severity. Subjects and methods: This Cross-Sectional research included 120 Patients (2 groups) 60 CKD Patients and 60 Hemodialysis Patients. The study has been conducted in Nephrology Unit Al-Hussien University Hospital. Results: In ESRD group there was Significant statistically (p-value = 0.008) T score femur and eGFR had a positive connection (r = 0.34). Significant statistically (p-value = 0.008) There is an r-value of 0.34 between the T score of the spine and the eGFR. While in CKD group significantly significant (p-value = 0.001) differences. T score femur and Creat have a negative connection (r = -0.41) with each other. Significant statistically (p-value = 0.001) T score femur and eGFR had a positive connection (r = 0.43). Significant statistically (p-value = 0.02) The T score forearm and the eGFR have a positive connection (r = 0.3). Conclusion: MBD are common features among CKD patients especially in late stages leading to Osteoporosis and fractures. Dual Energy X- Ray (DXA) could be utilized as efficient method for detection of the level of bone affliction in CKD patients and is essential for bone loss monitoring Keywords: mineral bone disorders, chronic kidney diseases.
