    Routine hemodialysis increases neural activation intensity in patients with chronic kidney disease. Cortical function speed is linked to blood electrolyte levels, not consistently affected by dialysis itself.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Nephrology
    • Clinical Neurophysiology

    Background:

    • Uremia, a complication of chronic kidney disease, is linked to neurobehavioral deficits.
    • Assessing cortical function in uremic patients is crucial for understanding treatment effects.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the impact of hemodialysis on cortical function in chronic renal failure patients.
    • To investigate the relationship between electrophysiological measures, cognitive tests, and biochemical markers.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized long-latency event-related potentials (ERPs) and the Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT).
    • Measured ERPs and SDMT performance immediately before and after hemodialysis.
    • Included a control condition on a non-dialysis day to account for practice effects.

    Main Results:

    • Hemodialysis significantly increased N2 and P3 amplitude, indicating enhanced neural activation.
    • Cortical function speed, assessed by ERP latency and SDMT, showed no consistent changes due to dialysis.
    • Changes in late ERP component latency correlated with serum electrolyte level fluctuations during dialysis.

    Conclusions:

    • Routine hemodialysis enhances neural activation intensity in uremic patients.
    • Cortical function speed is influenced by blood electrolyte levels.
    • Pre-dialysis P3 latency is associated with calcium, uric acid levels, and SDMT performance.
