BACKGROUND: Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) has been described in the general population as an independent risk marker for incident coronary artery disease. In hemodialysis patients, it correlates with other markers of cardiovascular disease, but it is unknown if it is associated with adverse events. METHODS: post hoc analysis of the Renagel in New Dialysis (RIND) patients study, a randomized trial of sevelamer versus calcium-based phosphate binders in 109 incident hemodialysis patients, followed for all-cause mortality for a median of 49.3 months. Patients underwent baseline cardiac computed tomography imaging within 120 days of dialysis initiation. RESULTS: Baseline EAT measurements were available in 95 patients; EAT was positively cor...
