Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
All patients on haemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis for Chronic kidney disease, Patients should be stable on dialysis for at least 6 months with adequate indices of dialysis (Fractional Reduction of Urea, FRU > 0.67 or Kt/V > 0.3); All patients with moderate-to-severe stages 3-5 chronic kidney disease (GFR < 60ml/min); Patients will be selected for having the Metabolic Syndrome as defined by the WHO criteria [31] based on our previous data showing that these patients had markedly impaired vascular function:1.
