Abstract
Cystatin C (CyC) concentration has been suggested as a marker of middle-molecule accumulation, hemodialysis (HD) adequacy and for estimating residual renal function (RRF), but it has not been studied in pediatric HD. High CyC is associated with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD). We investigated CyC kinetics and the effect of RRF on CyC in a pediatric HD population. A total of 21 HD sessions and 20 interdialytic periods were analyzed in...
