The use of low-calcium dialysate has been associated with decreased LV contractility and a corresponding decrease in blood pressure. It was further associated with a significant intradialytic decrease in blood pressure in both healthy and cardiac-compromised HD patients and patients with decreased LV ejection fraction.

x-and y-Intercepts. The graphical concept of x-and y-intercepts is pretty simple. The x-intercepts are where the graph crosses the x-axis, and the y-intercepts are where the graph crosses the y-axis. The problems start when we try to deal with intercepts algebraically.To clarify the algebraic part, think again about the axes.ake a closer look, and you'll see that the y-axis is also the line  x = 0. In the same way, the x-axis is also the line  y = 0. Then, algebraically, 1  an x-intercept is a point on the graph where y is zero, and. 2  a y-intercept is a point on the graph where x is zero.
