Abstract
Patients receiving hemodialysis are carnitine deficient. Tissue carnitine depletion is related to hemodialysis duration. Carnitine concentration in blood does not represent the whole carnitine stores in patients receiving hemodialysis. Brachioradialis muscle carnitine contents are significantly higher than those in the rectus muscle of abdomen.
