Figure 1 Kaplan-Meier curves of causes of death from cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular death in relation to non–HDL cholesterol levels in a cohort of 525 hemodialysis patients. The ranges of non–HDL cholesterol in the lowest, middle, and highest tertiles were 1.09 to 2.74 mmol/L (42 to 106 mg/dL), 2.76 to 3.51 mmol/L (107 to 136 mg/dL), and 3.54 to 7.36 mmol/L (137 to 285 mg/dL), respectively. P values were by log-rank test. Kidney International 2003 63, S117-S120DOI: (10.1046/j.1523-1755.63.s84.30.x) Copyright © 2003 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions
