Summary: | Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is independently associated with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential roles of B lymphocyte populations with cardiac remodeling in elderly patients with advanced CKD.
We designed a retrospective study in a cohort of 167 patients (84 advanced CKD patients with stage 4–5 and 83 non-CKD controls). B cell subsets: CD19(+)CD5(+) and CD19(+)CD5(−) B cells were identified by flow cytometry. Correlation of B cells subsets with cardiac remodeling and clinical data in elderly CKD patients were analyzed.
In this study, we found that the prevalence of hypertension was more common in CKD patients than in the control subjects (P |
