Hyperhomocysteinemia in Chronic Renal Disease [PDF]
Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the major cause of death both in the general population and in patients with end-stage renal failure (ESRF). CVD is responsible for about 40% of all deaths in both demographic groups.Although the proportion of people dying of cardiovascular causes is similar, the risk of CVD is far greater for ...

Early identification and active management of patients with renal impairment in primary care can improve outcomes The number of patients with end stage renal disease is growing worldwide. About 20-30 patients have some degree of renal dysfunction for each patient who needs renal replacement treatment.1 Diabetes and hypertension are the two most common
