Dialysis therapy of terminal uraemia in insulin-requiring diabetic patients. 1975

K Roed-Petersen, and P Thayssen, and F U Nielsen, and E Kemp

A 5-year material comprising 26 insulin-requiring patients with terminal uraemia is reported. The patients were treated with protein restriction, peritoneal dialysis and haemodialysis with a view to kidney transplantation. Changes in cardiac state, diabetic retinopathy, insulin requirements and blood sugar during treatment are described. In addition, dialysis complications are described. It is concluded that by the use of dialysis treatment such patients can be helped to an acceptable life while waiting for a transplantation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007328 Insulin A 51-amino acid pancreatic hormone that plays a major role in the regulation of glucose metabolism, directly by suppressing endogenous glucose production (GLYCOGENOLYSIS; GLUCONEOGENESIS) and indirectly by suppressing GLUCAGON secretion and LIPOLYSIS. Native insulin is a globular protein comprised of a zinc-coordinated hexamer. Each insulin monomer containing two chains, A (21 residues) and B (30 residues), linked by two disulfide bonds. Insulin is used as a drug to control insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 1).
