What is Time‐dependent Lipid Profile Inversely Associates with Mortality in Hemodialysis Patients – Independent of Inflammation/malnutrition about?
## Abstract ## Background Patients with end‐stage kidney disease have an extremely high cardiovascular mortality rate, but there is a paradoxical relationship between lipid profile and survival in haemodialysis patients. To investigate whether inflammation/malnutrition confounds the associations between lipids and mortality, we studied a full lipid profile comprising of five clinically well‐established lipid parameters and its associations with mortality in a large, multinational European cohort with a median follow‐up >3 years. ## Methods The association between quartiles of total, high‐density lipoprotein (HDL), non‐HDL, low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, as well as triglyceride, levels and the end‐points of all‐cause, cardiovascular and non‐cardiovascular mortality was assessed in a cohort of 5,382 incident, adult haemodialysis patients from >250 Fresenius Medical Care dialysis centres out of 14 participating countries using baseline and time‐dependent Cox models. Analyses were fully adjusted and stratified for inflammation/malnutrition status and other patient‐level variables. ## Results Time‐dependent quartiles of total, HDL, non‐HDL and LDL cholesterol were inversely
