Dialysis water treated by reverse osmosis decreases the levels of C-reactive protein in uremic patients
Atherosclerosis is a major complication of chronic renal failure. Microinflammation is involved in atherogenesis and is associated with uremia and dialysis. The role of dialysate water contamination in inducing inflammation has been debated. Our aim was to study inflammatory markers in patients on c...
