Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Vascular calcification (VC) and accelerated atherosclerosis are major causes of cardiovascular (CV) morbidity and mortality in haemodialysis (HD) patients. Inhibitory proteins are associated with reduced VC and may play a key role in preventing CV in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Fetuin-A, also known as alpha(2)-Heremans-Schmid glycoprotein (AHSG), is a circulating plasma protein with...
