Background. Vascular access (VA) for hemodialysis (HD) is crucial for the course of treatment and a good prognosis for patients. There have been numerous investigations of the influence of homocysteine (Hcy) on VA complications, but to date the role of Hcy is controversial. The present study of HD p
