Effects of two low-flux cellulose acetate dialysers on plasma lipids and lipoproteins--a cross-over trial.
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Studies have shown a beneficial effect of high-flux dialysis on lipids, lipoproteins and lipoprotein lipase (Lpl) activity. This has been attributed to improved clearance of Lpl-inhibitory molecules of middle molecular weight, but differences in flux or biocompatibility have not been addressed. We conducted a blinded cross-over trial of two cellulose acetate dialysers (AN140, Althin Medical Inc. and CA210, Baxter Inc.) of similar …
