The sampling of 82 patients was included into the study to assess the diagnostic value of laboratory markers of endothelium dysfunction (homocysteine concentration, von Willebrand factor activity) in patients passing the treatment of program hemodialysis. The study detected the reliable increase of homocysteine level and activity of von Willebrand factor in patients passing hemodialysis. The association of increasing of concentration of homocysteine and von Willebrand factor activity with rate of cardiovascular complications in patients passing the program in patients passing hemodialysis was established.
