Article: Availability of iron and degree of inflammation modifies the response to recombinant human erythropoietin when treating anemia of chronic
BACKGROUND: Erythropoietin is known to improve outcomes in patients with anemia from chronic renal disease. However, there is uncertainty about the optimal timing of initiation of erythropoietin treatment in predialysis patients with non-severe anemia. METHODS: We conducted a randomized controlled trial...
