Hyperlipidemia in Children with Chronic Renal Insufficiency [PDF]
Total serum cholesterol, phospholipids, and triglyceride levels, lipoprotein fractionation, and plasma parathormone levels were measured in a group of 31 nonnephrotic children with various levels of renal function and on hemodialysis. Group A served as controls and consisted of eight healthy children with glomerular filtration rate (GFR) greater than ...

Hyperhomocysteinemia in Chronic Renal Insufficiency
Hyperhomocysteinemia in Chronic Renal Insufficiency Hyperhomocysteinemia is an independent risk factor for premature cardiovascular disease. Since the homocysteine level is elevated in patients with advanced chronic renal insufficiency, it has been presented as an important factor contributing to the development of cardiovascular complications ...

Inference and Prediction Using Functional Principal Components Analysis: Application to Diabetic Kidney Disease Progression in the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) Study [PDF]
Repeated longitudinal measurements are commonly used to model long-term disease progression, and timing and number of assessments per patient may vary, leading to irregularly spaced and sparse data. Longitudinal trajectories may exhibit curvilinear patterns, in which mixed linear regression methods may fail to capture true trends in the data.
