Among patients with peritoneal dialysis, 60% showed signs of hyporesponsive anemia linked to low zinc levels, impacting treatment efficacy.
Cross-sectional analysis explores the relationship between zinc levels and anemia in patients on peritoneal dialysis.
Findings highlight the need for dietary zinc assessment and potential supplementation to improve anemia treatment outcomes.
