title: Study of the activity of lymphocyte adenosine deaminase in chronic renal failure.
abstract: The activity of lymphocyte adenosine deaminase was studied in 28 undialysed uremic patients, 19 patients on maintenance hemodialysis and 32 normal subjects. A statistically significant decrease of the enzyme activity was found both for the undialysed and dialysed patients.
