Effect of phosphatidylcholine on ultrafiltration in patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.

abstract：:Using immunofluorescence, we studied 19 patients with IgA nephropathy to determine whether the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 in glomeruli might reflect the disease activity. The relationship between the expression of ICAM-1 and the infiltration of lymphocytes, monocytes and polymorphonuclear l...
