HD, hemodialysis; PD, peritoneal dialysis; Hb, hemoglobin; TIBC, total iron binding capacity; sTfR, soluble transferrin receptor; Hep-25; hepcidin-25; WBC, white blood cell count; ESR, erythrocyte sedimentation rate; CRP, C-reactive protein; IL-6, Interleukin-6; IL-10, Interleukin-10; TNF-α, tumor necrosis factor alpha; NA, not available. Data are presented as means (± SD), or median and [minimum-maximum]. * P values determined according to t-test for normally distributed continuous variables, Mann-Whitney rank-sum tests for non-normally distributed continuous variables. † Log transformed variables. ǂ Only presented the range.
