title: [Circadian rhythm of pituitary-thyroid hormones in patients with chronic renal failure treated by hemodialysis].
abstract: In 30 dialyzed patients with end stage renal failure and and in 15 healthy subjects the circadian rhythm was studied of the hormonal secretion of the pituitary-thyroid axis. (TSH, T3, T4). Venous blood was sampled every 6 hours from subjects following their regular way of life. The dialyzed patients with end stage renal failure present the normal circadian rhythm of pituitary-thyroid hormones secretion was preserved (despite differences in measure and amplitude) and erythropoietin administration did not change the pattern.
