High Serum Uric Acid and High-Sensitivity C Reactive Protein Concentrations Predict Three-Year Cardiovascular Mortality in Patients Treated With Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis

Aims: This study aims to access the predicting value of serum uric acid (UA) and high-sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP) concentration on three-year cardiovascular-related mortality in patients performing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Methods: A total of 267 CAPD patients [150 male (56.2%); mean age 48.93 ± 13.58 years] were included in our study. All patients had measured serum UA and hs-CRP concentration. A...
