Association of lipid profile with serum PON1 concentration in patients with chronic kidney disease

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at high risk of atherosclerotic events; dyslipoproteinemia and the decrease of the HDL-linked enzyme paraoxonase 1 (PON1), might have a major role. This study intends to compare the association between lipid profile and serum PON1 levels in renal failure (RF) and hemodialysis (HD) patients. Serum lipids, HDL-subclasses and PON1 concentration were evaluated in 90 patients with CKD, divided into...
