Elevated serum levels of soluble adhesion molecules predict death in pre‐dialysis patients: association with malnutrition, inflammation, and cardiovascular disease

Background. Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, malnutrition, and increased levels of pro‐inflammatory cytokines are common features in patients with chronic renal failure, and contribute to the high mortality rate observed in these patients. A diverse group of soluble cellular adhesion molecule...
