Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
The outcome of this study will help us to understand the significance of measuring serum PTX-3 levels among CKD patients on dialysis.
The present investigation will also reveal the risk of morbidity and mortality among two groups.
The outcome will also determine whether the extent of tissue injury (marked by the serum concentration of PTX-3) has any significant change between two groups. 
At baseline, 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 12 weeks 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Impact of Anti-oxidents in CKD patients on dialysis will be determined by serum pentroxin-3 level  At baseline, 4 weeks, 8 weeks and 12 weeks

Brief Summary
Modification(s)  
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality even in the early stages of the disease patients on hemodialysis have limited life expectancy due to multiple co-morbidities and complications due to internal injury and inflammation. Many studies have proven that serum/plasma pentraxin 3 is the sensitive biomarker for internal injury and inflammation than the hsCRP. In dialysis patients, oxidative stress and inflammation are associated with the development of CVD. The pro-inflammatory/anti-inflammatory phenotype is disturbed on the pro-inflammatory side in CKD patients. The oxygen-free radicals are central to the pathology of many degenerative diseases, including those of the kidney. Enhanced oxygen radical generation and/or a compromized antioxidant defence system results in chronic oxidative stress which significantly worsens many conditions includes cardiovascular diseases. Preservation of glomerular membrane integrity is crucial to renal function and biological membranes are protected from oxidative deterioration by the lipophilic antioxidant vitamin E, principally in the form of a-tocopherol. Vitamin E has potent antiinflammatory and anticoagulant properties. Additionally, it can prevent apoptosis due to oxidative stress. Therefore this study aimed to investigate the antioxidants as an add on with usual/regular therapy and its effect on plasma Pentraxin-3 in CKD patients with renal dialysis
