  • Title: Electrogustometry in hemodialysis patients.
    Author: Ralli G, Magliulo G, Persichetti S, Maggi S, Farina Mazzeo A.
    Journal: Acta Otorhinolaryngol Belg; 1985; 39(5):822-31. PubMed ID: 4096222.
    Abstract:
    Serous zinc levels and electrogustometry were studied on thirty patients undergoing periodic hemodialysis. After dialysis a better electrogustometric threshold (p less than 0,05) and also higher serous zinc levels were found. The two parameters showed no significant correlation. These results are suggestive of a toxical damage of taste receptors in the chronic renal failure.
