Association between serum elastin-derived peptides and abdominal aortic calcification in peritoneal dialysis patients: a cross-sectional study

BACKGROUND: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients experience accelerated arterial aging, which is characterized by elastin degradation. Elastin-derived peptides (EDPs) are direct products of elastin fragmentation. This study tried to explore the association between serum EDPs and abdominal aortic calcif...
