Oral Zinc Supplementation Reduces the Erythropoietin Responsiveness Index in Patients on Hemodialysis

BACKGROUND In hemodialysis (HD) patients, zinc depletion caused by inadequate intake, malabsorption, and removal by HD treatment leads to erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA) hyporesponsiveness. This study investigated the effects of zinc supplementation in HD patients with zinc deficiency on changes in the erythropoietin responsiveness index (ERI). METHODS Patients on HD with low serum zin...

Significant Effect of Raloxifene on Bone in Hemodialysis Patients

Attention should be drawn to the study by colleagues Saito O et al. published in the International journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism (1). The study suggests that raloxifene has a significant beneficial effect on bone in postmenopausal women with type 2 diabetes (2DM) undergoing hemodialysis (1). Hemodialysis patients are known to have a high risk of low bone mineral density and bone fract...
