Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have an extremely poor cardiovascular
outcome. Arterial stiffness, a strong independent predictor of survival in CKD, is connected to …

Cardiovascular (CV) disease is the commonest cause of mortality in patients with chronic
kidney disease (CKD). Vascular calcification (VC), induced by calcium and phosphate …

Background. Vascular calcification (VC) and arterial stiffness are major contributors to
cardiovascular (CV) disease in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Both are independent …

Vascular calcification, which is associated with arterial stiffness, is now known to be an
important predictor of cardiovascular and all‐cause mortality in patients with renal disease …

It is of interest that in the general population, low bone mass is associated with a higher
mortality rate due to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. In addition, the degree of aortic …

Vascular calcification (VC) is highly prevalent in CKD and leads to increased vascular
stiffness and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Non-traditional cardiovascular risk factors …

SUMMARY 1 Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) demonstrate a high burden of
vascular disease. This vascular disease is unusual by way of a preponderance of medial …

Abstract Background/Aims: This cross-sectional study was designed to assess the
relationship between vascular stiffness (VS) and bone-related proteins involved in the …

The increased cardiovascular risk of chronic kidney disease may in part be the
consequence of arterial stiffness, a typical feature of kidney failure. Deranged homeostasis …
