Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: At present, inflammation is considered to be one of the key players in the development and maintenance of atherosclerosis, with ample impact on renal transplant outcomes. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels and the underlying genetically determined "high-producer" status impact cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. In end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients, the role of genetically determined IL-6...
