Assessment of the relationship between serum soluble Klotho and carotid intima –media thickness and left ventricular dysfunction in hemodialysis patients

Conclusion The present study showed that patients with a low s-Klotho were more often associated with increased CIMT, LV dysfunction, and CAD, and it seems that there was independent association between s-Klotho and CIMT, LVEF, and CAD.
