Prevalence of hyperhomocysteinemia in hemodialysis patients in the United Arab Emirates, a one center experience, correlation with diabetes mellitus, folate, and dialysis modality

Hyperhomocysteinemia is a non-traditional independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. It is highly prevalent in Western dialysis patients, while its prevalence in the Middle East is unknown...
