Background/Aim: In this study, we compared the dialysis efficiency, oxidative stress, and nutritional conditions between predilution on-line hemodiafiltration (pre-OL-HDF) and conventional hemodialysis (HD) using a super-flux dialyzer (CHD). Method: This was a crossover study of 38 maintenance HD patients. All patients were treated with CHD for the first 4 months (1st CHD period), then were switched to pre-OL-HDF for 4 months (pre-OL-HDF period), and were returned to CHD for the next 4 months (2nd CHD period). Results: We found no significant difference in the removal ratio of small uremic substances or the indices of inflammation or nutritional states between the pre-OL-HDF and CHD periods. However, we found higher removal of β2 micro-globulin in the pre-OL-HDF period, and the human mercapto-albumin (Alb)/human serum Alb ratio was significantly higher in the pre-OL-HDF period. Conclusion: Treatment with pre-OL-HDF enabled enhanced removal of middle molecule uremic toxins and better Alb redox than did CHD.
