Abstract
The authors evaluated the effects of l-carnitine on the lipid pattern of 27 uremic patients in chronic hemodialysis A significant increase in HDL-cholesterol concentrations, a lowering of cholesterol and no significant change in triglyceride levels were found. The atherosclerotic risk factor was significantly reduced. All parameters returned to baseline levels on discontinuation of the treatment with l-carnitine
