Gastroscopy Findings and Risk Factors in End-Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Study
This prospective study evaluated upper gastrointestinal (GI) findings in 54 end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients with GI symptoms. Endoscopic abnormalities (70.4%) included gastric erythema (40.7%), erosions (20.4%), and ulcers (12.9%). Chronic gastritis (68.5%) and H. pylori infection (22.2%) were prevalent. Older age (>60 years) and type 2 diabetes significantly correlated with lesions (p<0.05). Proactive GI evaluation in ESRD patients is recommended.
