Uremic toxins such as p-cresol and phenol are suggested to be associated with higher mortality in hemodialysis patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of probiotics on serum p-cresol level in hemodialysis patients.
Overall, 42 hemodialysis patients (10 women and 32 men) were divided randomly into the Lactobacillus rhamnosus group (21 patients) and the placebo group (21 patients).
