Abstract
Hyperhomocysteinemia is partly amenable to correction by vitamin supplementation in CKD stages 3 and 4. There is insufficient evidence to suggest that low tHcy is associated with poor nutritional status in the MDRD Study cohort. B vitamins and GFR, but not dietary protein, are the major determinants of tHcy in this patient population.
