The cartonectin levels at different stages of chronic kidney disease and related factors.

DISCUSSION: In our study, we found that the cartonectin levels increased as GFR decreased and were significantly higher in hemodialysis patients. Cartonectin is structurally closely related to adiponectin. It is remarkable that the level of cartonectin is also high in hemodialysis patients, like adiponectin.
