Abstract :
Patients with kidney diseases continue to experience significant cardiovascular disease CVD morbidity and mortality. Although there are many important risk factors playing a role in the pathogenesis of CVD in chronic kidney disease CKD patients, dyslipidemia elevated triglycerides, elevated oxidized low density lipoprotein and low dysfunctional low high density represents one of the modifiable risk factors. Renal failure patients have unique lipid abnormalities which not only have complex role in pathogenesis of CVD but also cause relative resistance to usual interventions. Most of the randomized trials have been in hemodialysis population and data from CKD non dialysis, peritoneal dialysis and renal transplant populations is extremely limited. Compared to general population, evidence of mortality benefit of lipid lowering medications in CKD population is scarce. Future research should be directed towards establishing long term benefits and side effects of lipid lowering medications, through randomized trials, in CKD population.
