Normalizing the peritoneal dialysis dose-have we got it right? (2016)
Journal Article
Davies, S. J. (2016). Normalizing the peritoneal dialysis dose-have we got it right?. Kidney International, 90(6), 1162 -1163. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.kint.2016.09.020

How the dialysis dose is normalized is just one of several assumptions that clinicians need to take into account when prescribing peritoneal dialysis. El-Kateb et al. confirm that estimating the volume of urea distribution is associated with signific... Read More about Normalizing the peritoneal dialysis dose-have we got it right?.

The Current State of Peritoneal Dialysis (2016)
Journal Article
Mehrotra, R., Devuyst, O., Davies, S. J., & Johnson, D. W. (2016). The Current State of Peritoneal Dialysis. Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 27(11), 3238 -3252. https://doi.org/10.1681/ASN.2016010112

Technical innovations in peritoneal dialysis (PD), now used widely for the long-term treatment of ESRD, have significantly reduced therapy-related complications, allowing patients to be maintained on PD for longer periods. Indeed, the survival rate f... Read More about The Current State of Peritoneal Dialysis.

Patient Acceptability of the Yorkshire Dialysis Decision AID (YODDA) Booklet: A Prospective Non-Randomized Comparison Study across 6 Predialysis Services (2016)
Journal Article
Winterbottom, A. E., Gavaruzzi, T., Mooney, A., Wilkie, M., Davies, S. J., Crane, D., …Bekker, H. L. (2016). Patient Acceptability of the Yorkshire Dialysis Decision AID (YODDA) Booklet: A Prospective Non-Randomized Comparison Study across 6 Predialysis Services. Peritoneal Dialysis International: Journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis, 36(4), 374-381. https://doi.org/10.3747/pdi.2014.00274

Background
Patients are satisfied with their kidney care but want more support in making dialysis choices. Predialysis leaflets vary across services, with few being sufficient to enable patients’ informed decision making. We describe the acceptabili...

Peritoneal Dialysate Glucose Load and Systemic Glucose Metabolism in Non-Diabetics: Results from the GLOBAL Fluid Cohort Study. (2016)
Journal Article
Lambie, M., Chess, J., Do, J., Noh, H., Lee, H., Kim, Y., …Davies, S. J. (2016). Peritoneal Dialysate Glucose Load and Systemic Glucose Metabolism in Non-Diabetics: Results from the GLOBAL Fluid Cohort Study. PloS one, 11(6), Article e0155564. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0155564

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Glucose control is a significant predictor of mortality in diabetic peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. During PD, the local toxic effects of intra-peritoneal glucose are well recognized, but despite large amounts of glucose...

Background
Extending technique survival on peritoneal dialysis (PD) remains a major challenge in optimizing outcomes for PD patients while increasing PD utilization. The primary objective of the Peritoneal Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Stu...
