The Relationship between Renal Function and Plasma Concentration of the Cachectic Factor Zinc-Alpha2-Glycoprotein (ZAG) in Adult Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease
Figure 4
Plasma glycerol concentration in non-CKD and CKD patients.
Plasma glycerol was measured as an index of lipolysis in 17 non-CKD patients, 6 CKD-2, 4 CKD-4 and 12 CKD-5 patients. A) plasma glycerol concentration B) Plasma glycerol, concentration normalized to body fat mass as described in methods. No difference was found to be significant at the P<0.05 level using Kruskall & Wallis test.
