Associations between lipid profiles and MACE in hemodialysis patients with percutaneous coronary intervention: From the FU-Registry

Abstract: BMI, CABG, and insulin use, but not LDL-C, are independent predictors of MACE in HD patients, suggesting that the application of lipid management for non-HD patients to HD patients at the time of PCI may not necessarily be beneficial for medium-term clinical outcomes.

“…Therefore, whether statin use has a beneficial effect on clinical outcomes in the HD population has been controversial and the debate is ongoing regarding the ideal LDL cholesterol level. From these points, the findings of the article by Nagata et al [4] are concurring with the previous reports.…”

“…In this issue of the Journal of Cardiology, Nagata et al [4] report that low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels could not predict major adverse cardiac events in HD patients undergoing PCI. It is well known that lipid profiles greatly affect clinical outcome in non-HD populations [5].…”

“…In addition, the results show an increase in serum triglycerides levels in patients undergoing hemodialysis compared to healthy subjects. Different studies such as (17,18) confirm the results obtained in this study. The main causes expressed for the increase of triglyceride in chronic dialysis patients are plasma clearance of triglycerides and increased hepatic triglyceride synthesis.…”
