The Impact of Glomerular Disease on Dyslipidemia in Pediatric Patients Treated with Dialysis
Pediatric dialysis patients have a high prevalence of dyslipidemia, particularly from elevated triglyceride levels. Specifically, patients with glomerular disease have an even higher risk of dyslipidemia from elevated non-HDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels than patients with non-glomerular disease. The long-term impact of this unfavorable lipid profile requires further investigation.
