The relationship between dietary niacin intake and the incidence of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality among chronic kidney disease patients

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major cause of human mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD)-related death. Niacin can treat dyslipidemia and can lower overall cardiovascular event incidence and mortality rates. The present study was designed to clarify the link between dietary consumption of niacin and cardiovascular mortality.
