Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the factors influencing health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with different chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD–MBD) phenotypes. Methods: Patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) at our center from 1 July to 31 August 2017 were enrolled. Patients who received hemodialysis for less than 3 months or displayed poor compliance, or those with incomplete clinical data were excluded. QoL was evaluated using the Kidney Disease Quality of Life–Short Form (KDQOL-SF™) 1.3 scale. The influential factors were stratified based on different CKB–MBD phenotypes. Results: There were 296 patients enrolled. The serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) concentration was 436.40 ± 490.99 pg/mL, serum calcium (Ca) concentration was 2.14 ±0.27 mmol/L, serum phosphorus (P) concentration was 1.81 ± 0.56 mmol/L, the kidney disease and dialysis-related QoL (KDTA) score was 57.07 ± 10.40, and the SF-36 score was 51.45 ± 17.62. Among patients with different CKD–MBD phenotypes, HRQoL was highest in the group with an iPTH concentration of 150 to 300 pg/mL, serum Ca concentration of <2.10 mmol/L, and serum P concentration of >1.78 mmol/L. Conclusions: CKD−MBD phenotypes significantly affected HRQoL. Comprehensive management of serum iPTH, Ca, and P levels is important to improve QoL in patients receiving hemodialysis.
