abstract：BACKGROUND:An increased red blood cell (RBC) phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure in uremic patients was found that could promote macrophage recognition and decrease RBC survival time. Furthermore, a reduced red cell life span was found to contribute anemia in patients with renal failure. It is therefore possible to hypoth...
