Radial artery sclerostin expression in chronic kidney disease stage 5 predialysis patients: a cross-sectional observational study
2017
Purpose
Bone metabolism disorder is often associated with cardiovascular calcification in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Sclerostin, a novel candidate protein, has been identified to be involved in the bone–vascular axis. The aims of the current investigation were to assess vessel sclerostin expression and its relationship with circulating sclerostin levels.
