Novel Lipoprotein Subfraction and Size Measurements in Prediction of Mortality in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients

[摘要] Background and objectives Conventional lipid profiles usually cannot predict cardiovascular outcomes in chronic disease states. We hypothesized that novel lipoprotein subfraction concentrations and LDL particle size measurements better predict mortality in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.
