Figure 5

Plasma PCO levels measured in nondiabetic and diabetic ESRD patients on maintenance HD. (a) Histogram showing the plasma PCO level in nondiabetic and diabetic haemodialyzed patients measured immediately before (pre-HD, white bars) and after (post-HD, grey bars) a single HD session. Data are expressed as the mean ± SE. (b) Regression analysis showing the relation between pre-HD and post-HD plasma PCO levels in nondiabetic haemodialyzed patients. Slope of the line is . (c) Regression analysis showing the relation between pre-HD and post-HD plasma PCO levels in diabetic haemodialyzed patients. Slope of the line is . .
