Effects of hemodialysis on circulating adrenomedullin concentrations in patients with end-stage renal disease [PDF]
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 ...

Mineral metabolism, mortality, and morbidity in maintenance hemodialysis.
Mortality rates in ESRD are unacceptably high. Disorders of mineral metabolism (hyperphosphatemia, hypercalcemia, and secondary hyperparathyroidism) are potentially modifiable. For determining associations among disorders of mineral metabolism, mortality,
