First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 43 critically ill adults with acute kidney injury who needed continuous kidney replacement therapy (CRRT). Researchers measured how much of certain nutrients—like carnitine, vitamins, and amino acids—were removed during dialysis. The goal was to understand if this life-saving treatment might accidentally cause nutrient deficiencies.
