Several mechanisms strictly regulate polyamine concentration, and blood polyamines are excreted in urine. This indicates polyamine accumulation in renal dysfunction, and studies have shown increased blood polyamine concentrations in patients with renal failure. Hemodialysis (HD) may compensate for polyamine excretion; however, little is known about polyamine excretion.

- The study investigates how standing after hemodialysis (HD) affects cerebral oxygenation in patients, particularly comparing those with and without diabetes mellitus (DM).
- Results show that cerebral regional oxygen saturation (rSO) significantly decreases from resting to standing, with a 6.8% drop in rSO specifically noted.
- The decrease in rSO is closely linked to diabetes presence, duration of HD, blood pressure changes, and indicates that patients with DM may experience more severe reductions in cerebral oxygenation after HD.
