Özet

Aim: Vascular calcification is a common complication in CKD. Studies conducted in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) showed that calcification in vascular structures is an important component of the atherosclerosis process. GLA rich protein (GRP) has been suggested as a potential marker for vascular calcification. We investigated the relationship between GRP levels, carotid intima media thickness and inflammatory parameters in patients with predialysis stage 3, 4 and 5 CKD.
