DOIAbstract
Background: It is well known that free iron causes oxidant stress to increase. However data concerning whether intravenously (IN) administered iron in maintenance doses (10-20 mg) gives rise to increased oxidant stress and disturbed erythrocyte deformability (EDEF) in hemodialysis (HD) patients is lacking. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate and compare the effects of IN iron on oxidant stress and EDEF
