Effect of Peritoneal Dialysis on Serum Fibrosis Biomarkers in Patients with Refractory Congestive Heart Failure
Background: Cardiac collagen remodeling is important in the progression of heart failure. Estimation of cardiac collagen turnover by serum levels of serological markers is used for monitoring cardiac tissue repair and fibrosis. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is used for the long-term management of refract...
