Circulating Haptoglobin and Metabolic Syndrome in Renal Transplant Recipients.


ABSTRACT: Haptoglobin (Hp) is an acute phase protein that has recently been linked to components of the metabolic syndrome (MetS). We aimed to evaluate Hp as marker of MetS, and to assess its association with long-term outcome in renal transplant recipients (RTR). We measured plasma Hp in a prospective cohort of 699 stable RTR and 149 healthy controls. Median plasma Hp concentration in RTR was 1.4 [interquartile range (IQR), 1.0-1.8] g/L, which was higher compared to 1.1 [0.9-1.4] g/L in controls (P?
