    Plot of predicted weekly blood urea nitrogen (BUN) concentration. Calculations are similar to the process used for urea kinetic modeling in Solute-Solver. The upper horizontal dotted line shows mean predialysis BUN level, and the lower horizontal dashed line shows time-averaged concentration. All concentrations have been reduced from pure aqueous values by multiplying by 0.93 (to correspond to plasma values measured during the blood-draw-day dialysis session).
