Background: Lipid metabolism is influenced by mutations in the EH domain binding protein 1 gene (EHBP1). This study investigated the link between the EHBP1 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and dyslipidemia risks in maintenance dialysis patients with end-stage renal disease in Chinese Han population.

Methods: A total of 539 patients were divided into dyslipidemia (379) and control (160) groups.

We sought to investigate the effect of total triiodothyronine (TT3) reduction in the follow-up of patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN). A total of 121 patients were enrolled and classified into a low TT3 group or a normal group. Clinical indicators were compared between the groups, and changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), albumin (ALB), thyroid-stimulating hormone, serum creatinine, total protein, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) during follow-up were analysed.
