NCT01209403

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the anabolic potentials of insulin may be used to reverse the catabolic effects of hemodialysis in non-diabetic patients with end-stage renal failure.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Effect of glucose and glucose-insulin infusion on plasma IGF-I and IGFBP-1 during hemodialysis

    All patients are randomly assigned to a hemodialysis session with either i) no infusion, ii) a continuous iv infusion of glucose, and iii) a continuous iv infusion of glucose and shortacting insulin. Each dialysis session will be separated by 2 weeks of wash-out

    From 2 h prior to start of hemodialysis to 2 h after end of hemodialysis

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Relationship between inflammatory markers and plasma concentrations of IGF-I and IGFBP-1 during hemodialysis

    From 2 h prior to start of hemodialysis to 2 h after end of hemodialysis
