The present study attempted to assess relationship between inflammatory mediators and occurrence of left ventricular failure in patients with chronic kidney disease.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n This cross-sectional study was performed at Noor and Hazrat Aliasghar hospital in Isfahan between September 2012 to September 2013 on patients aged >19 years that referred for following their chronic kidney disease. Serum level of inflammatory parameters including C-reactive protein (CRP) and Interleukin-6 (IL-6) was measured using spectrophotometer. All patients were also assessed using M-mode echocardiography to determine left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n The group with significant reduced LVEF showed lower GFR when compared to the normal LVEF group (40.73 \u00b1 20.61%\n versus<\/jats:italic>\n 44.43 \u00b1 17.98%,\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.032). Comparing GFR across the three groups with normal LVEF (>55%), with mild LV dysfunction (LVEF: 45 \u2013 55) those with significant LV dysfunction (LVEF < 45%) showed significantly lower GFR level in latter group compared with normal LVEF and mild LV dysfunction group (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.026). Although the level of serum CRP was significantly higher in patients with significant left ventricular failure than other groups (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.018).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n Inflammatory processes can potentially affect left ventricular function in patients with chronic kidney disease. In this regard, increased level of CRP may be a main factor for predicting severity of left ventricular failure in these patients.<\/jats:p>\n
