(2016-11-01)
© 2016, Iranian Society of Nephrology. All rights reserved. Introduction. One of the major risk factors for cardiovascular disease is lipid abnormalities among hemodialysis patients. The present study was designed to ...
Effects of l-carnitine supplement on serum inflammatory cytokines, C-reactive protein, lipoprotein (a), and oxidative stress in hemodialysis patients with Lp (a) hyperlipoproteinemia
(2010-10-01)
Inflammation, oxidative stress, and high concentration of serum lipoprotein (a) [Lp (a)] are common complications in hemodialysis patients. The present study was designed to investigate the effects of l-carnitine supplement ...
Prevalence of protein-energy wasting and its various types in Iranian hemodialysis patients: A new classification
(2012-11-01)
Background: This study was designed to determine the prevalence of protein-energy wasting (PEW) and its various types in hemodialysis (HD) patients in Tehran, Iran. Methods: For this cross-sectional study, 291 HD patients ...
Effects of combined lipoic acid and pyridoxine on albuminuria, advanced glycation end-products, and blood pressure in diabetic nephropathy
(2013-04-01)
This study was designed to investigate the effects of combined administration of lipoic acid and pyridoxine on albuminuria, oxidative stress, blood pressure, serum advanced glycation end-products, nitric oxide (NO), and ...
Effects of omega-3 fatty acids on serum lipids, lipoprotein (a), and hematologic factors in hemodialysis patients
(2011-10-01)
Background: Lipid abnormalities, especially high serum lipoprotein (a) [Lp (a)] concentration, and anemia are two major causes of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in hemodialysis patients. Therefore, this study was designed ...
Dietary assessment of hemodialysis patients in Tehran, Iran
(2011-10-01)
Inadequate dietary intakes are a major determinant of malnutrition in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Considering the lack of information available on dietary intakes of HD patients in Iran, the present study was designed to ...

Effects of L-Carnitine supplement on plasma coagulation and anticoagulation factors in hemodialysis patients
(2010-10-06)
Background: Hypercoagulability is an important risk factor for thrombosis and its complications in hemodialysis patients. This study was designed to investigate the effects of l-carnitine supplement on plasma coagulation ...
Effects of soy consumption on serum lipids and apoproteins in peritoneal dialysis patients: A randomized controlled trial
(2010-11-01)
Background: Lipid abnormalities, particularly high serum concentration of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)], are one of the major risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. The present study ...
