Summary

The investigators believe that relieving the oxidative stress experienced by hemodialysis patients may help improve cardiovascular health.

In this study, the investigators hypothesize that administration of coenzyme Q10, as a targeted antioxidant therapy, will ameliorate the excessive oxidative stress experienced by hemodialysis patients. This will lead to improvements in biomarkers of:

* oxidative stress status
* inflammatory status
* endothelial dysfunction
