Effects of hemodialysis on circulating adrenomedullin concentrations in patients with end-stage renal disease [PDF]
, 1998 To characterize the determinants of circulating levels of adrenomedullin (AM), the plasma levels of this peptide were measured in 58 patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis, Predialysis plasma levels of AM were more than twice as high in ...
