Proinflammatory cytokines play a pathogenic role in congestive heart failure. In
this study, the effect of peritoneal dialysis treatment on inflammatory cytokines
levels in refractory congestive heart failure patients was investigated. During
the treatment, the patients reached a well-tolerated edema-free state and
demonstrated significant improvement in NYHA functional class. Brain natriuretic
peptide decreased significantly after 3 months of treatment and remained stable
at 6 months. C-reactive protein, a plasma marker of inflammation, decreased
significantly following the treatment. Circulating inflammatory cytokines TNF-?
and IL-6 decreased significantly after 3 months of peritoneal dialysis treatment
and remained low at 6 months. The reduction in circulating inflammatory cytokines
levels may be partly responsible for the efficacy of peritoneal dialysis for
refractory congestive heart failure.
