Monocyte subpopulations (A) and monocyte subpopulation-platelet aggregates (B) in healthy controls (Ctrl; white bars) and HD patients (grey bars) immediately after collection. Sodium citrate blood from healthy control (Ctrl; n = 8) and hemodialysis patients (HD; n = 8) Results are presented a mean ± SD. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.005 vs. Ctrl. CD14++CD16−: classical monocytes; CD14++CD16+: intermediate monocytes; CD14+CD16++: non classical monocytes; CD14+CD16−: negatives; MPA: monocyte-platelet aggregates.
