Response to is the reduction in urea distribution volume over time in clinically stable dialysis patients real?  S. Andrulli, S. Di Filippo, F. Locatelli  Kidney International  Volume 70, Issue 2, Pages 403-404 (July 2006) DOI: 10.1038/sj.ki.5001601 Copyright © 2006 International Society of Nephrology Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 The change in urea distribution volume over a median of five observations in 12 dialysis patients (data from Basile's letter) was a linear inverse function of the urea distribution volume measured at baseline. The coefficient of determination was 0.403 (P-value 0.016): that is, 40.3% of the change in urea distribution volume over time can be explained by the value measured at baseline.
