Brief Summary:
According to the reports of the United States Renal Data System USRDS there is a 25 annual mortality rate with nearly 50 of all reported maintenance hemodialysis HD patient deaths attributed to atherosclerosis-related complications Although traditional risk factors of cardiovascular disease CVD are common in end-stage renal disease ESRD patients they alone may be insufficient to account for their high prevalence of CVD Recent evidence demonstrated high plasma homocysteine levels have been established as a risk factor of chronic inflammation and atherosclerosis in patients with ESRD
Malnutrition and inflammation was associated with poor quality of life morbidity and mortality We the researchers at National Taiwan University Hospital hope to establish the best predictive profile of HD patient outcome Thus we establish several protocols to complete this work
