However, there are no data available regarding the effect of hemodialysis adequacy on the activity of erythrocyte G6PD.
In this study, we identified the risk factors for mortality and investigated the effect of the adequacy of antimicrobial therapy in patients with P. aeruginosa bacteremia.
In our study, we used the same dialysis membrane during HD in all patients in order to separate the effect of HD adequacy on G6PD activity from a potential membrane effect on G6PD activity [ 20].
We conducted this study to determine the G6PD activity level in patients with ESRD on maintenance HD and to study the effect of hemodialysis adequacy on G6PD activity levels and its impact on anemia.
We conducted this study to determine the erythrocyte glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) activity level in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on maintenance hemodialysis (HD) and to determine the effect of hemodialysis adequacy on G6PD activity levels and its impact on anemia.
> A logistic regression model was developed to assess the effect of timing and adequacy of therapy (n = 458) and had good calibration (Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit p = 0.49 and discrimination (area under ROC = 0.808; ROC curve not shown).
In medical ICU (MICU) patients (typically found to have greater preillness comorbidities) the effect of improved nutritional adequacy on QOL was much stronger with significant improvements in both 3-month and 6-month SF-36 scores [ 30].
Due to the limited number of studies available for each test type, we were only able to investigate the effect of continent and adequacy of the reference standard on the sensitivity and specificity of Type 3 tests for detecting non-falciparum species with microscopy as reference standard.
The effect of current household income adequacy on age at first intercourse is negligible overall, but it appears to be more dramatic among women.
