Nephrology, 08/27/09
Tsouchnikas I et al. – Dyslipidemia of haemodialysis patients was treated safely and effectively with atorvastatin, but a fifth of the patients failed to achieve the therapeutic target. Statin therapy resulted in a significant increase of haemoglobin levels and improvement of erythropoietin responsiveness without a significant reduction in CRP levels, suggesting that the beneficial effect of statins on erythropoietin responsiveness may be driven by a mechanism other than CRP reduction.
