Physiological Measurement, 43(8), Article 08NT01. https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6579/ac80e8

OBJECTIVE: With growing recognition of the benefits of preserving residual kidney function (RKF) and use of incremental treatment regimes, the incentive to measure residual clearance in haemodialysis patients is increasing. Interdialytic urine collec...

INTRODUCTION: Use of home dialysis by centres in the UK varies considerably and is decreasing despite attempts to encourage greater use. Knowing what drives this unwarranted variation requires in-depth understanding of centre cultural and organisatio...

Introduction
Transition to hemodialysis (HD) is a common outcome in peritoneal dialysis (PD), but the associated mortality risk is poorly understood. This study sought to identify rates of and risk factors for mortality after transitioning from PD t... Read More about Mortality Trends After Transfer From Peritoneal Dialysis to Hemodialysis.
