Abstract
Skeletal muscle loss is common in patients with renal failure who receive maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) therapy. Regular ingestion of protein-rich meals are recommended to help offset muscle protein loss in MHD patients, but little is known about the anabolic potential of this strategy.Eight MHD patients (age: 56 ± 5 years; body mass index [BMI]: 32 ± 2 kg/m2) and 8 nonuremic control subjects (age: 50 ± 2 years: BMI: 31 ± 1 kg/m2) received...
