Figure 6

Predialyzer and postdialyzer angiopoietin-1 and angiopoietin-2 concentrations. Aligned dots indicate individual predialyzer and postdialyzer angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) and angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) concentrations. (a) Median Ang-1 concentrations decreased an average 36.2% from 7.9 ng/ml (1.7 to 56.6 ng/ml) (predialyzer sample) to 5.1 ng/ml (1.3 to 20.8 ng/ml) (postdialyzer sample) (P = 0.0003). (b) Median Ang-2 concentration decreased by 23.1% from 14.7 ng/ml (1.7 to 81.5 ng/ml) (predialyzer sample) to 11.5 ng/ml (1.4 to 46.9 ng/ml) (postdialyzer sample) (P = 0.0002).
