Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| A = 45% increase in the IL-10 transcription rate of monocytes and lymphocytes in hypervolemic patients is defined as the primary endpoint. There is only one assessment point (1 blood sample after the long dialysis-free interval before the start of dialysis) at which the absolute values ??of both groups H vs. N are compared. Our hypothesis assumes an increase in the IL-10 transcription rate in the hypervolemic patients. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The secondary endpoints to be analyzed between the hypervolemic (H) and normovolemic (N) groups to be examined are: - the relative displacement of regulatory T-cells - the relative shift of TNF-a and IL-10 producing cells (Th1 / Th2) - different IL-10 miRNA levels in the serum of hyper- and normovolemics - different IL-10 miRNA content in exosomes of hyper- and normovolemics | — |
