Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the correlation of mean platelet volume (MPV) and MPV to platelet count ratio MPV/PLT with vascular access failure (VAF) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients, and to evaluate the predictive value of MPV and MPV/PLT for VAF events.

Methods

This study was a single center retrospective study. MHD patients with autologous arteriovenous fistula (AVF) as the vascular access at the Renal Blood Purification Center of Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from January 2015 to June 2021 were selected. The study subjects were divided into two groups based on the occurrence of vascular dysfunction: VAF group and non-VAF group. The differences in MPV and MPV/PLT changes between the two groups were compared with the mixed linear model. Kaplan Meier curve was used to compare the VAF incidence at different levels of MPV and MPV/PLT. The multivariate Cox regression model was applied to analyze independent risk factors for VAF events. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the value of MPV and MPV/PLT in predicting VAF events in the hemodialysis patients.

Results

This study included 307 MHD patients, with 99 in the VAF group and 208 in the non-VAF group. The MPV, MPV/PLT, total cholesterol, uric acid, and dialysis age of the VAF group were higher than those of the non-VAF group (P<0.05). The mixed linear model comparison showed that there was no significant difference in MPV between the two groups, while MPV/PLT of the VAF group was significantly higher than that of the non-VAF group with the follow-up time prolonging (P<0.001). The Kaplan Meier curve showed statistically significant differences in the incidence of VAF at different levels of MPV and MPV/PLT(χ2=30.580, P<0.001 and χ2=9.599, P=0.008). The higher the levels of MPV and MPV/PLT, the higher the incidence of VAF events. After correction for the total cholesterol, uric acid, and dialysis age, multivariate Cox regression model analysis showed that MPV (HR=1.97, 95%CI: 1.60-2.42, P<0.001) and MPV/PLT (HR=1.59, 95%CI: 1.32-1.92, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for the occurrence of VAF. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) were 0.713 and 0.643, respectively, while the AUC of the combination of them was 0.716.

Conclusions

Elevated levels of MPV and MPV/PLT in the MHD patients were associated with the occurrence of VAF, and might have potential predictive value.
