Splanchnic erythrocyte content decreases during hemodialysis: a new compensatory mechanism for hypovolemia
Kidney Int (Jun) 51:1986-1990 1997
It is now known that there is central translocation of blood volume during dialysis, but the source of this translocated blood is not known. In this paper Yu et al (I am a coauthor) show that there is shifting of blood out of the viscera during volume depletion (ultrafiltration) but not during diffusion dialysis. I can't say much more about this great paper, because I'm biased, but the abstract is available from the National Library of Medicine's PubMed site: click here .
