1 Plasma Retinol Concentration Is Mainly Driven by Transthyretin in Hemodialysis Patients. Vitamin A transthyretin Homo sapiens
2 MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Plasma concentration of lipophilic micronutrients retinol and its two co-transporters transthyretin and retinol-binding protein 4, tocopherol, and carotenoids (alpha-carotene and beta-carotene, beta-cryptoxanthin, lycopene, lutein, and zeaxanthin), and all factors associated with 1-year mortality. Vitamin A transthyretin Homo sapiens
3 Nevertheless, the correlation between retinol and mortality disappeared as soon as transthyretin was added in the statistical model, suggesting an effect of transthyretin as confusing bias. Vitamin A transthyretin Homo sapiens
