Electrogustometry in hemodialysis patients
Abstract
Serous zinc levels and electrogustometry were studied on thirty patients undergoing periodic hemodialysis. After dialysis a better electrogustometric threshold (p less than 0,05) and also higher serous zinc levels were found. The two parameters showed no significant correlation. These results are suggestive of a toxical damage of taste receptors in the chronic renal failure.
