  • Title: Plasma insulin and C-peptide concentrations in diabetic patients undergoing hemodialysis: Comparison with five types of high-flux dialyzer membranes.
    Author: Abe M, Okada K, Matsumoto K.
    Journal: Diabetes Res Clin Pract; 2008 Oct; 82(1):e17-9. PubMed ID: 18774617.
    Abstract:
    Alterations in plasma insulin and C-peptide concentrations following hemodialysis were evaluated using five types of dialyzer, which made of polysulphone, polyethersulfone, cellulose triacetate, polymethylmethacrylate, and polyester-polymer alloy, in diabetic patients. Plasma insulin and C-peptide were cleared by hemodialysis; their clearance rates and reduction rates differed across dialyzer types.
