title: [Chronic renal insufficiency. Low-protein diet supplemented with essential amino acids and ketoanalogues].
abstract: Conventional conservative treatment of chronic uremia is aimed at reducing protein intake to a minimum level compatible with nitrogen balance. A great progress in this field is represented by a low protein diet associated with some essential aminoacids and ketoanalogues. A group of 20 patients with chronic renal failure at an advanced stage has been studied and good results have been obtained with a low protein diet (0.2 g/kg/24 h vegetable proteins) associated with essential aminoacids and ketoanalogues.
