The main variables of glycolipid metabolism (blood non‐esterified fatty acids, triglycerides, cholesterol, insulin, glucose) have been measured in basal conditions in ura‐emic patients on conservative treatment and on dialysis of different duration and bath glucose concentration (no glucose, 1 g/1, 2 g/1). Basal values for the patients on conservative dietary treatment are not different from normal. In dialysed patients, the blood non‐esterified fatty acid and triglyceride concentrations are increased (p < 0.001) while cholesterol glucose and insulin levels are unchanged. No significant difference is found between the various types of dialysis, having different duration and bath glucose concentration.
