title: High density lipoproteins--correlation with cardiovascular disease in hemodialysis patients.
abstract: 1) HDL levels are low in hemodialysis patients. 2) Lipid abnormalities do not correlate with the presence of CVD in hemodialysis patients. 3) Smoking may not effect blood lipid levels in hemodialysis patients. 4) Nandrolone decanoate may not play a role in CVD in hemodialysis patients. 5) Longer time on hemodialysis does not result in a decrease in triglyceride or increase in HDL levels.
