Summary

This study looked at whether taking L-carnitine or Coenzyme Q10 supplements could lower oxidative stress (a type of cell damage) in adults with end-stage kidney disease who are on regular hemodialysis. Fifty-two participants took one of the supplements or a placebo for 12 weeks, then stopped for another 12 weeks to see if any benefits lasted. The goal was to find a safe, well-tolerated way to improve health markers in these patients.
