Protein-bound uremic toxins indoxyl sulfate (IS) and p-cresol sulfate (p-CS) have been implicated as an important factor in uremic syndrome. Recent evidence indicates that both IS and p-CS are predictors of cardiovascular as well as all-cause mortality among chronic dialysis patients. We conducted a study to analyze the relationship between IS and p-CS and vascular access (VA) outcome in chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients.
