Polymorphisms of T helper cell cytokine-associated genes and survival of hemodialysis patients – a prospective study

Abstract Background Circulating pro-inflammatory cytokines were associated with increased relative mortality risk, while immune parameters reflecting improved T-cell function were predictors of survival in hemodialysis (HD) patients. We evaluated in the prospective study whether variants in T helper...
