Clinical features of aluminum-associated bone disease in long-term hemodialysis patients.

abstract：:Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is elevated in patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) and was suggested to be one of the factors responsible for the anemic syndrome of these patients because it raises the osmotic fragility of the red blood cells (RBC). In the present study, the youngest and oldest RBC were separated from...
