Relation between Endothelial Protein C Receptor Gene Polymorphism 6936A/G and the Risk of Vascular Access Thrombosis in Patients with End Stage Renal Disease on Hemodialysis
Abstract:Background:The most significant complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Hemodialysis (HD) necessitates a well-functioning vascular access with enough blood flow for clearance and blood dialysis. Thrombosis of the veins can be caused by both acquired and inherited factors. Aim of The Work: To to assess EPCR levels in patients with ESRD on hemodialysis & study relationship between the presence of EPCR gene polymorphisms (6936A/G) and incidence of vascular access thrombosis… Show more
