“…and 'How much dialysis is necessary for an optimal clinical course?' [11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Perhaps the most significant evidence resulting from this study is that volume and salt control may contribute more to an optimal clinical course than removal of metabolic waste products such as urea and creatinine, as the former factors are important for improved control of cardiovascular disease and hypertension. 6,7 However, the ADEMEX study also demonstrated that inappropriate dialysis is responsible for the increased morbidity/mortality associated with the group of lowest clearances.…”
