    Author: Luci V, Wichmann T, Giesselmann M, Koall W, Mampel E.
    Journal: Z Gesamte Inn Med; 1983 Mar 01; 38(5):153-7. PubMed ID: 6344469.
    Abstract:
    In patients in the chronic programme of haemodialysis and 51 patients with transplanted kidney selected lipid-chemical parameters were investigated and compared. 1. Disturbances of the lipid metabolism more frequently occurred in patients with transplanted kidney than in chronically haemodialyzed patients. 2. Triglycerides, total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol were more frequently increased in patients with transplanted kidney than in chronically haemodialysed patients. 3. The HDL cholesterol of patients with transplanted kidney was only somewhat higher in comparison to patients in the chronic haemodialysis programme. 4. Sex-specific differences of the HDL cholesterol level were neither in chronically haemodialysed patients nor in patients with transplanted kidney. 5. Klimov-index and LDL/HDL cholesterol quotient referred to a permanently high risk of cardiovascular complications even after transplantation of a kidney.
