Plasma levels of prealbumin (PAB) and retinol binding protein (RBP) after the three dietary interventions. (A) Prealbumin (PAB) and (B) retinol binding protein (RBP) both decreased significantly after the restricted diet, with no changes seen in the DER-diet group or in the control group; (C) PAB and (D) RBP did not change in patients who did not complete the restricted diet. The two corresponding values for the individual patients are connected with a line. * p ≤ 0.002. Red symbols = kidney donors in the restricted diet group. DER = daily energy requirements.
