The Clinical Significance of LDL-Cholesterol on the Outcomes of Hemodialysis Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome
Conclusions: Despite comparable lipid profiles and statin treatment before and after ACS hospitalization, mortality rates were significantly higher among HD group. While malnutrition-inflammation markers were associated with survival of dialysis patients after ACS, LDL cholesterol was not. Thus, our study results emphasize that better nutritional status and less inflammation are associated with improved survival among HD patients.PMID:37512123 | PMC:PMC10385584 | DOI:10.3390/medicina59071312
