Period prevalence for ESRD in 1998 was 397 971 persons at a cost of $16.74 billion, with 87 534 new beneficiaries of treatment (2). It is projected that by 2010, the number of patients treated for ESRD will be 651 330, at a cost of $28.3 billion (1). Accordingly, a significant effort is now being made to reduce the incidence of ESRD by slowing the rate of progression ...References1. Collins AJ. End-stage renal disease.
