Natural killer cell dysfunction in uremia: the role of oxidative stress and the effects of dialysis.

abstract：:There is a wide variability in the utilization of peritoneal dialysis throughout Europe that cannot be explained by differences in medical factors alone. Over the last years, the utilization of peritoneal dialysis has even changed in individual countries. The main factors of this variation are not medical, but rather ...
