Phagocytic activity of polymorphonuclear leukocytes during haemodialysis in relation to some immunological findings.
The present study demonstrated prolonged decreases of phagocytic activity by neutrophils in comparison to transitory neutropenias during haemodialysis with cuprophane membranes, remaining in connection with non-equalization immunological findings as C3 complement levels, circulating immune complexes and lysozyme activity at the end of haemodialysis.
