[The effect of hemodialysis on the level of cytoplasmic Ca2+ in the thrombocytes of patients with chronic kidney failure].

Cytoplasmic Ca2+ was measured in donors and 12 patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) on hemodialysis. Their basal platelet levels were approximately the same. With longer duration of the dialysis Ca2+ levels decreased.

[Lipid peroxidation as a possible mechanism of erythrocyte damage in patients with chronic kidney failure on hemodialysis].

Ten patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) treated by hemodialysis (HD) were examined. All the patients demonstrated remarkable anemia. The red blood cell count was (2.

[The level of thromboxane A2 and prostacyclin in patients with chronic kidney failure undergoing hemodialysis].

Overall 14 patients with chronic renal failure treated by hemodialysis were examined. The content of the key metabolites of the arachidonic cascade thromboxane B2, 6-keto-prostaglandin F1 alpha and 12-hydroxyeicosatetraene acid (12-HETE) in blood plasma was reduced in the patients as compared to donors. By the end of hemodialysis, part of the patients showed a tendency towards its normalization, however, no complete recovery was practically recorded.
