Abstract:patients were malnourished. Plasma copeptin, proadrenomedullin, myeloperoxidase, protein, albumin, sodium and systemic blood pressure were not significantly different in each groups. Degrees of over-hydration were not different however, extracellular and intracellular fluid ratio (EI) were different in PD (p ¼ 0.03) and CKD-ND (p ¼ 0.12). EI were 1.08 vs. 0.94 for PD and 1.13 vs. 0.82 for CKD-ND. In pooled analysis, copeptin (0.44 6 0.28 vs 0.35 6 0.19, p ¼ 0.07) and EI (1.04 6 0.23 vs. 0.89 60.15, p ¼ 0.001) … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
