Background: Carnitine deficiency is common in patients on dialysis. Serum free carnitine
concentration is significantly lower in patients on hemodialysis (HD) than in healthy …

Background. Carnitine loss through dialysis membranes is shown to be related to the lack of
carnitine in long-term haemodialysis patients. It has been previously reported that …

Background l-carnitine is an amino acid derivative that is thought to be helpful for treating
renal anemia in hemodialysis patients. However, the mechanism remains to be fully …

Background: There are many causes of carnitine depletion in hemodialysis patients;
carnitine insufficiency may contribute to renal anemia. In the current study, we examined …
