Abstract excerpt

AIMS: We sought to determine the predictive value of Matrix Gla Protein MGP T-138C polymorphism in relation to all-cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality and cardiovascular events in patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN). METHODS: MGP T-138C polymorphism was assessed in 40 diabetic patients without nephropathy and 118 patients at different stages of DN, including patients on hemodialysis. Measurement of...
