The hemodialysis (HD) patient is often marked by constant malnutrition, inflammation, and atherosclerosis, resulting in an increased risk of cardiovascular events and mortality. This chronic inflammatory state is often the result of increased oxidative stress. Nutritional supplementation may become an additional therapy to lower this inflammatory burden. By providing these patients with nutritional supplement and antioxidant therapies consisting of alpha-lipoic acid, cholecalciferol, ascorbic acid, and Gamma-Tocopherol, providers may reduce overall inflammation and improve HD outcomes in patients with end-stage renal disease.
血液透析（HD）患者常伴有持续的营养不良、炎症和动脉粥样硬化，导致心血管事件风险和死亡率增加。这种慢性炎症状态通常是氧化应激增加的结果。营养补充可能成为降低这种炎症负担的一种额外治疗方法。通过为这些患者提供由α-硫辛酸、胆钙化醇、抗坏血酸和γ-生育酚组成的营养补充剂和抗氧化疗法，医疗服务提供者可能会减轻总体炎症，并改善终末期肾病患者的血液透析效果。
