#1248 Sex specific associations between fat free mass and weight with mortality: sequences of regressions analyses from the UK Biobank cohort (2024)
Presentation / Conference
Tabinor, M., Potts, J., Ferro, C. J., Davies, S., & Solis-Trapala, I. (2024, May). #1248 Sex specific associations between fat free mass and weight with mortality: sequences of regressions analyses from the UK Biobank cohort. Presented at 61st ERA Congress, Stockholm, Sweden

Background and Aims There is growing evidence that muscle mass (MM) loss, observed in long term conditions (LTCs), including chronic kidney disease (CKD), is associated with mortality. This study aimed to explore the direct association between MM and...

#2796 Divergent associations between mortality and different measures of renal function after adjustment for body composition: results from the UK Biobank (2024)
Presentation / Conference
Tabinor, M., Potts, J., Ferro, C. J., Davies, S., & Solis-Trapala, I. (2024, May). #2796 Divergent associations between mortality and different measures of renal function after adjustment for body composition: results from the UK Biobank. Presented at 61st ERA Congress, Stockholm, Sweden

Background and Aims There is data suggesting estimated glomerular filtration rate using Cystatin-C (eGFRCystatin-C) is superior to the creatinine-based (eGFRCreat) method when assessing associations between renal function and mortality (Lees et al. 2...

#2832 Lean tissue mass is associated with mortality across different stages of chronic kidney disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis (2024)
Presentation / Conference
Tabinor, M., Elphick, E., Stephens, C., Wall, N., Ul Hussain, A., Shah, R., …Davies, S. (2024, May). #2832 Lean tissue mass is associated with mortality across different stages of chronic kidney disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Presented at 61st ERA Congress, Stockholm, Sweden

Background and Aims Loss of lean tissue mass (LLTM) commonly occurs in multiple long-term conditions (LTC), including chronic kidney disease (CKD), and is thought to be associated with adverse outcomes including mortality, frailty surrogates and poor...

Centre variation in home dialysis uptake: A survey of kidney centre practice in relation to home dialysis organisation and delivery in England (2024)
Journal Article
Damery, S., Lambie, M., Williams, I., Coyle, D., Fotheringham, J., Solis-Trapala, I., …Davies, S. J. (in press). Centre variation in home dialysis uptake: A survey of kidney centre practice in relation to home dialysis organisation and delivery in England. Peritoneal Dialysis International: Journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis, https://doi.org/10.1177/08968608241232200

Background: Disparities in home dialysis uptake across England suggest inequity and unexplained variation in access. We surveyed staff at all English kidney centres to identify patterns in service organisation/delivery and explore correlations with...

The Point-of-Care Peritoneal Dialysis System Early Evaluation Study (POC-PDEE): A pilot proof-of-principal study of the Ellen Medical Devices Point-of-Care affordable peritoneal dialysis system. (2024)
Journal Article
Talbot, B., Davies, S., Burman, J., Ritchie, A., Snelling, P., Lynch, S., …Knight, J. (in press). The Point-of-Care Peritoneal Dialysis System Early Evaluation Study (POC-PDEE): A pilot proof-of-principal study of the Ellen Medical Devices Point-of-Care affordable peritoneal dialysis system. Peritoneal Dialysis International: Journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis, https://doi.org/10.1177/08968608231209850

The global unmet need for kidney replacement therapy means that millions of people die every year as they cannot afford treatment. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) offers comparable survival to haemodialysis and is often more affordable, but one barrier to i...

Effects of Empagliflozin on Fluid Overload, Weight and Blood Pressure in Chronic Kidney Disease (2023)
Journal Article
Mayne, K. J., Staplin, N., Keane, D. F., Wanner, C., Brenner, S., Cejka, V., …Herrington, W. G. (2023). Effects of Empagliflozin on Fluid Overload, Weight and Blood Pressure in Chronic Kidney Disease. Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 35(2), 202-215. https://doi.org/10.1681/asn.0000000000000271

BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with fluid excess which can be estimated by bioimpedance spectroscopy. We aimed to assess effects of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibition on bioimpedance-derived “Fluid Overload” and adipos...

Providing environmentally sustainable nephrology care: focus in Low- and Middle-Income Countries. (2023)
Journal Article
Luyckx, V. A., Alasfar, S., Bajpai, D., Atwater, C. E., Knight, J., Talbot, B., …Niang, A. (2024). Providing environmentally sustainable nephrology care: focus in Low- and Middle-Income Countries. Kidney International, 105(2), 259-268. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.kint.2023.09.034

Healthcare on a global scale significantly contributes to carbon emissions, with high-income countries being the primary culprits. Within healthcare, dialysis plays a significant role as a major source of emissions. Low- and middle-income countries h...
