| Abstract | ||
| In this study we aimed to evaluate the role of oxidative stress as a contributing factor on the extent of free radical damage on lipid (measured as malondialdehyde, MDA) and their effect on antioxidant defense mechanism (measured as vitamin E in the serum of chronic renal failure patients, CRF predialytically and renal anaemia) through studying the effect of vitamin E supplementation as an antioxidant on the markers of oxidative stress as well as on hemoglobin in haemodialysis (HD) patients. Methods: Plasma malondialdehyde(MDA), plasma creatinine, urea and haemoglobin (Hb) concentration were measured in 40 HD patients(both sex) and compared with 20 healthy(both sex), matched controls. After 3months of vitamin E supplementation in a dosage of 600mg/day (not to accede the safety daily dose) [1], the baseline parameters were reassessed in the same patients group | ||
