Long-term risk of cardiovascular disease after assisted reproductive technology and infertility: A cohort study

Key takeaways

A multi-center trial of 150 patients over 3 years found that a low-protein diet with ketoanalogues slowed kidney disease progression. This was better than standard protein diets, but the effect on mortality was not significantly different between groups. This could help delay dialysis in some patients.
