Klotho’s Impact on Cardiovascular Disease, Fractures, and Mortality in Hemodialysis
These findings suggest that low serum sKlotho levels are strongly associated with poor cardiovascular and skeletal outcomes and increased mortality in patients on hemodialysis. This study highlights the potential utility of sKlotho as a biomarker for risk stratification in this high-risk population.
