Coronary and systemic vasodilator responsiveness to both adenosine and nitroglycerin is augmented in patients receiving nHD relative to those receiving iHD, whereas vasoconstrictor responsiveness to acetylcholine does not differ. By improving coronary conduit and microvascular function, nHD may reduce the cardiovascular risk of patients on dialysis.
