Average Concentrations of cytokines and inflammation factors during HD of healthy controls and HD patients treated with PAES or CTA HD membranes (n = 8). Levels of (A) C5a, (B) IL-1β, (C) TNF-α, (D) IL-1α, (E) IL-6, (F) vWF, (G) serpin, and (H) properdin throughout a single dialysis procedure. (The concentrations of cytokines and inflammation factors of HD individual patients (n = 8) are presented in Fig. S10).
