Abstract
Background Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) plays a pivotal role in pathological vascular remodeling and angiogenesis. Both vascular mechanisms are active in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and may contribute to the high mortality in these patients. The aim of this multicenter prospective cohort study was to investigate baseline serum Ang-2 concentrations in ESRD patients on hemodialysis (HD) for their ability to predict all-cause mortality....
