Higher serum trimethylamine-N-oxide levels are associated with increased abdominal aortic calcification in hemodialysis patients
Introduction Vascular calcification (VC) is high prevalent and predicts cardiovascular mortality in dialysis patients. The mechanisms are not known clearly. Trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), a gut-microbiota derivate metabolite, is also associated with cardiovascular outcomes in hemodialysis (HD) patie...
