Abstract
The distribution and elimination of a bolus of glucose injected during hemodialysis (HD) was examined using a distributed double-pool regional blood flow model. Intracorporeal glucose disposal was assumed as insulin-independent (?) in the central high-flow compartment comprising blood, brain, and internal organs, including pancreatic insulin secretion (a, C1) and hepatic insulin clearance (?). Insulin-dependent (?) glucose utilization was allocated to the low-flow system comprising muscle, skin, and bone. This model was compared with a compact single-pool model using the same model parameters except for the distribution volume (V). Six parameters (C1, a, ?, ?, ?, and V) were identified from data obtained in seven nondiabetic patients (59-115 kg). The fraction Fd of glucose removed by HD significantly (p < 0.05) correlated with baseline glucose concentration Cg,0 (5.561I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
