Long-term outcomes and management considerations after parathyroidectomy in the dialysis patient.

abstract：:The 180 l of glomerular filtrate formed each day contain some 1100 g (2.5 pounds) of sodium chloride, of which only 5-10 g are excreted in the urine--95% is reabsorbed by the tubules. Some 425 g (nearly a pound) of sodium bicarbonate and 145 g of glucose are filtered, and more than 99% of both are reabsorbed. Also fil...
