Serum fetuin‐<scp>A</scp> concentration and fetuin‐<scp>A</scp>‐containing calciprotein particles in patients with chronic inflammatory disease and renal failure

Abstract

Inflammation appears to be associated with mineral stress even in the absence of renal dysfunction. Patients with CUA on haemodialysis have very high serum Fet-A reduction ratios, suggesting that this measurement may have a prognostic/diagnostic role in this condition.
