This study examined the effect of vitamin C supplementation on serum uric acid levels in patients undergoing hemodialysis. The randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial assigned patients receiving hemodialysis to either receive 250mg of vitamin C after each dialysis session, 3 times per week for 8 weeks, or to a control group with no intervention. The study found that vitamin C supplementation resulted in a statistically significant reduction in serum uric acid levels in hemodialysis patients.
