Low Serum Concentration of Obestatin as a Predictor of Mortality in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients

Low Serum Concentration of Obestatin as a Predictor of Mortality in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients

Obestatin, a proposed anorexigenic gut hormone, has been shown to have a number of beneficial cardiotropic effects in experimental studies. We hypothesized that obestatin alteration in hemodialysis patients may link to clinical outcomes. This cross-sectional study with prospective followup for almos...
