Presepsin Level Correlates with the Development of Moderate Coronary Artery Calcifications in Hemodialysis Patients: A Preliminary Cross-Section Design Study.

on of ESRD Patients: Presepsin Levels in HD Patients Correlate with Minimal to Moderate CACs ESRD patients were classified according to their calcification scores CACs (0->1000) or CA-CT (1–6); 0 to minimal (1–2 or 0–10), mild (3 or 11–100), moderate (4 or 101–400), significant (5 or 401–1000), and highly significant (6 or >1000) ( Table 2 ). 18 Furthermore, most of the ESRD patients have hypertension (95.6%), diabetes (85.4%), or dyslipidemia (89.6%), whereby 77.1% of patients has three conditions combined.
