The study carried out in hemodialysis center, Educational General Baquba Hospital, Diyala, 2021. A total 108 patients 57 (52.8%) males and 51 (47.2%) females of 30-77 years old, suffering from chronic renal insufficiency, presented for hemodialysis center were depended in the study. The range of their age represent four age groups. Group (I) include 19 individuals of 30-39 years old; (II) 25 of 40-49 years; (III) 28 of 50-59 years; and (IV) 36 of 60-77 years. In male age ranged between 32-77 years, with mid age 53 year, while in females 30-73 with mid age 51 years.

The study revealed, that at the level of age groups, mean values of blood urea, blood creatinine, blood glucose and phosphorus, were higher than reference values. While mean values of albumin, sodium, and potassium were within normal range, meanwhile mean value of protein was lower than normal. At individual levels, blood urea, creatinine, and phosphorus, levels were higher than reference values in all patients (100%).While blood sugar was higher in only 67 (62.04%); (male 38 (66.67%); female 29 (56.86% ); albumin at 34 (31.48%); (male 16 (28.07%), female 18 (35.29%); meanwhile protein level showed 1 (0.93%) more than reference value (male 1 (1.75%); female 0%) and 60 (55.56%) less (male 32 (56.14%), female 28 (54.90%); Sodium 16 (14.81%) more; (male 15 (26.32%, female 1 (1.96%); and 11(10.19%) less (male 0%, female 11 (21.57%). and potassium levels were 40 (37.04%) more (male 25 (43.86%), female 15 (29.41%); and 3 (2.78%) less (male 1 (1.75%), female 2 (3.92%).
