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.

Background: Although caregivers allow peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients with disabilities the opportunity to perform PD, it is crucial to clarify the safety and effectiveness of assisted PD performed by caregivers compared to self-PD. Methods: PD pat... Read More about Assisted peritoneal dialysis performed by caregivers and its association with patient outcomes.

Journal Article
Yu, Z., Wang, Z., Wang, Q., Zhang, M., Jin, H., Ding, L., Yan, H., Huang, J., Jin, Y., Davies, S., Fang, W., & Ni, Z. (2021). Understand the difference between clinical measured ultrafiltrationand real ultrafiltration in peritoneal dialysis. BMC Nephrology, 22, Article 382. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12882-021-02589-3

BACKGROUND: It has been noticed for years that ultrafiltration (UF) is important for survival in peritoneal dialysis. On the other hand, precise and convenient UF measurement suitable for patient daily practice is not as straight forward as it is to...

Background:
In Europe, the number of elderly end-stage kidney disease patients is increasing. Few of those patients receive peritoneal dialysis (PD), as many cannot perform PD autonomously. Assisted PD programmes are available in most European coun... Read More about Assisted peritoneal dialysis across Europe: Practice variation and factors associated with availability.
