Table 2.

P-SH and S-thiolated proteins in the plasma or serum of ESRD patients on HD. All of the data are expressed as means ± SD, unless otherwise indicated. Data regarding S-thiolated proteins are in the grey cells. (b) Median with interquartile range in parentheses; (c) median with the 25–75th percentile in parentheses. HbSSCy, cysteinylated haemoglobin; HbSSG, S-glutathionylated haemoglobin; PTI, protein thiolation index.

*** p ≤ 0.001; ** p ≤ 0.01. (a) Total plasma protein. § The patients were divided into four groups according to the HD duration: group 1, 0–2 years of treatment (n = 31); group 2, 3–5 years of treatment (n = 40); group 3, 6–8 years of treatment (n = 27); group 4, 9–11 years of treatment (n = 13). There was no significant difference in the mean age between the groups. The plasma –SH levels were significantly lower in all of the patient groups than in controls (all groups p < 0.001).
