High-sensitivity C-reactive protein level is a significant risk factor for silent cerebral infarction in patients on hemodialysis
Abstract In patients with chronic renal failure on hemodialysis (HD), silent cerebral infarctions (SCIs) are associated with high mortality. The levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (HSCRP), a marker of inflammation and atherosclerosis, elevate with increasing renal dysfunction. We tested t...
