Although dialysis patients are at high risk for stroke and have a high burden of cognitive impairment, there are few reports on anatomic brain findings in the hemodialysis population. Using brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), we compared the prevalence of brain abnormalities in hemodialysis patients to a control population without known kidney disease. Cross-sectional cohort. 45 maintenance hemodialysis patients and 67 controls without reported kidney disease, both without prior history of known stroke. The primary predictor was dialysis status. Covariates included demographics (age, race, sex), vascular risk factors (diabetes and hypertension) and cardiovascular disease (coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure). Brain MRI features including severity of white matter disease and cerebral atrophy (sulcal prominence and ventricular atrophy), hippocampal size, and small/large vessel infarcts. Semi-quantitative scale (0-9 for white matter disease and cerebral atrophy, 0-3 for hippocampal size) and infarct prevalence. The mean age of hemodialysis patients and controls was 55 ± 17 (SD) and 53 ± 13 years, respectively. In comparison with controls, hemodialysis patients had more severe white matter disease (1.6 v 0.7) and cerebral atrophy (sulcal prominence = 2.3 v 0.6; ventricular enlargement = 2.3 v 0.9; hippocampal size = 1.3 v 1.0) with all p-values <0.001. In multivariable analyses, hemodialysis status was independently associated with worse white matter disease and atrophy grades. Hemodialysis patients also had a higher prevalence of small (17.8%) and large (7.8%) vessel infarcts than controls (combined 22% vs 0%, p<0.001). The dialysis cohort is likely healthier than the overall US hemodialysis population, partly limiting generalizability. Hemodialysis patients have more white matter disease and cerebral atrophy compared to controls without known kidney disease. Hemodialysis patients also have a high prevalence of unrecognized infarcts.
