| Abstract: | Bone metabolic markers were investigated in the male hemodialysis patients within and over 60 years old and the female hemodialysis patients within and over 50 years old. Our results indicated that bone metabolic markers were more increased in the lower values of serum estradiol in the male patients, but inversely were more enhanced in higher values of serum estradiol in the female patients. |
