Long term follow up of ionic plasma fluoride level in patients receiving hemodialysis treatment
The elimination half-life of fluoride is significantly increased in patients with chronic renal failure. This led us to conduct a study of variations of its plasma levels in 35 patients receiving dialysis treatment. In this population, there is a gaussian distribution of the values before and after...

Summary: | The elimination half-life of fluoride is significantly increased in patients with chronic renal failure. This led us to conduct a study of variations of its plasma levels in 35 patients receiving dialysis treatment. In this population, there is a gaussian distribution of the values before and after the hemodialysis session, with a significant decrease in the averages. Furthermore, there is a highly significant correlation between fluoride levels before and after the dialysis session (
