Hyperhomocyst(e)inemia (plasma homocyst(e)ine concentration >16.0 micromol/l) is an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis, and is ubiquitous in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Oral folate supplementation in the non-ESRD population has been demonstrated to reduce plasma homocyst(e)ine (Hcy) concentration, and may reduce atherosclerotic morbidity. This study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of folate supplementation in reducing Hcy in patients with ESRD and cardiovascular disease.
