Dyslipidemia among Patients with End Stage Renal Disease on Maintenance Hemodialysis
Dyslipidemia has been suggested to be one of the factors that contribute to the high incidence of cardiovascular disease in hemodialysis patients. Previous studies suggest that end-stage renal disease may contribute to dyslipidemia. The aim of the study:
