The cause of accelerated atherosclerosis in dialysis patients is not known yet, even though several major risk factors are well represented, such as high blood pressure, higher concentrations of plasma lipids, inflammation (e.g., elevated homocysteine, CRP (C-reactive protein), or fibrinogen levels), oxidative stress, hyperinsulinemia, mineral metabolism disorders, or anemia (for reviews, see [20,21]). This evidence concerns the gene CRP and anemia.
