Association of Serum Ig Free Light Chains with Mortality and ESRD among Patients with Nondialysis-Dependent CKD

[摘要] Background and objectives High levels of serum polyclonal combined Ig free light chains are associated with inflammation and decreased excretory kidney function, and they are an independent risk factor for mortality. Whether combined Ig free light chain predicted mortality and progression to ESRD in a stages 3–5 CKD cohort was assessed.
