Abstract:

Objective

The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical characteristics and the relevant factors of cardiac and renal damage in Chinese patients with Fabry disease.

Methods

The clinical data of 108 patients with Fabry disease were collected. According to whether there was kidney damage or cardiovascular damage, and whether there was joint damage of the heart and kidney, the patients were divided into groups, and the clinical characteristics and relevant factors of each group were analyzed.

Results

(1) Compared with the group without renal damage, patients with renal damage had higher incidence to suffer from neuropsychiatric symptoms, ocular symptoms, cardiovascular symptoms, digestive symptoms, and respiratory symptoms (P<0.05). The independent factors associated with renal damage were hearing loss, tinnitus, and hypertension. (2) Compared with the group without cardiovascular damage, patients with cardiovascular damage had higher incidence to be older, and to suffer from longer disease duration, decreased attention, depression, anxiety, corneal turbidity, conjunctiva and retinal vascular circuity, lens capsule turbidity, tinnitus, hearing loss, nausea, vomiting, chronic renal insufficiency, and chronic bronchitis (P< 0.05). The factors associated with cardiovascular damage were depression and/or anxiety, and the age at diagnosis. (3) Compared with the cardiovascular damage group, the renal damage group, and the group without heart and kidney joint damage, the group of heart and kidney joint damage had higher incidence to be older, and to suffer from longer disease duration, depression, anxiety, tinnitus, hearing loss, sensorineural hearing loss, nausea, vomiting, and chronic bronchitis (P< 0.05). The independent related factors of heart and kidney joint damage were age at diagnosis and tinnitus. The independent related factors of heart and kidney joint damage were age at diagnosis and tinnitus.

Conclusions

The incidence of many systemic symptoms in patients with simultaneous heart and kidney damage or separate heart or kidney damage was higher, with the symptoms being more severe than in patients with healthy heart and kidney. The relevant factors of renal damage were hypertension, tinnitus, and hearing loss, while the related factors of cardiovascular damage were depression and/or anxiety and the age at diagnosis.
