Estimating risk of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis accounting for the competing risk of death (2019)
Journal Article
Lambie, M., Teece, L., Johnson, D. W., Petrie, M., Mactier, R., Solis-Trapala, I., …Davies, S. J. (2019). Estimating risk of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis accounting for the competing risk of death. Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 1585-1591. https://doi.org/10.1093/ndt/gfz034

Background Risk of Encapsulating Peritoneal Sclerosis (EPS) is strongly associated with the duration of peritoneal dialysis (PD), such that patients who have been on PD for some time may consider elective transfer to haemodialysis to mitigate risk o...

Biocompatible Solutions and Long-Term Changes in Peritoneal Solute Transport (2018)
Journal Article
Davies, & Lambie. (2018). Biocompatible Solutions and Long-Term Changes in Peritoneal Solute Transport. Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 1526-1533. https://doi.org/10.2215/%3FCJN.02380218

Background and objectives The inflammation-driven increase in peritoneal solute transport rate that occurs during long-term peritoneal dialysis is associated with higher mortality, hospitalization, and encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis. Because bio... Read More about Biocompatible Solutions and Long-Term Changes in Peritoneal Solute Transport.

Bioimpedance-defined overhydration predicts survival in end stage kidney failure (ESKF): systematic review and subgroup meta-analysis. (2018)
Journal Article
Tabinor, M., Elphick, E., Dudson, M., Shing Kwok, C., Lambie, M., & Davies, S. J. (2018). Bioimpedance-defined overhydration predicts survival in end stage kidney failure (ESKF): systematic review and subgroup meta-analysis. Scientific reports, 8, Article 4441. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-21226-y

Both overhydration and comorbidity predict mortality in end-stage kidney failure (ESKF) but it is not clear whether these are independent of one another. We undertook a systematic review of studies reporting outcomes in adult dialysis patients in whi...

United Kingdom Catheter Study - Protocol Synopsis. (2018)
Journal Article
Briggs, V., Solis-Trapala, I., Wailloo, A., McCulloch, K., Lambie, M., Caskey, F., …Wilkie, M. (2018). United Kingdom Catheter Study - Protocol Synopsis. https://doi.org/10.3747/pdi.2017.00083

BACKGROUND: High-quality peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter insertion pathways are essential for optimal access to the therapy. Dialysis outcomes are influenced by a range of patient and center-related factors, and there is a need to better understand... Read More about United Kingdom Catheter Study - Protocol Synopsis..

A prospective, proteomics study identified potential biomarkers of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis in peritoneal effluent (2017)
Journal Article
Lambie, & Davies. (2017). A prospective, proteomics study identified potential biomarkers of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis in peritoneal effluent. Kidney International, 988-1002. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.kint.2017.03.030

Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a potentially devastating complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD). Diagnosis is often delayed due to the lack of effective and accurate diagnostic tools. We therefore examined peritoneal effluent for pot... Read More about A prospective, proteomics study identified potential biomarkers of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis in peritoneal effluent.

miR-21 Promotes Fibrogenesis in Peritoneal Dialysis. (2017)
Journal Article
Lambie, & Davies. (2017). miR-21 Promotes Fibrogenesis in Peritoneal Dialysis. American Journal of Pathology, 1537-1550. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ajpath.2017.03.007

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a life-saving form of renal replacement therapy for those with end-stage kidney disease. Mesothelial cells (MCs) line the peritoneal cavity and help define peritoneal response to treatment-associated injury, a major reason...

Understanding the variability in ultrafiltration obtained with icodextrin (2009)
Journal Article
Lambie. (2009). Understanding the variability in ultrafiltration obtained with icodextrin

I codextrin (ICO) has been a major addition to the management of ultrafiltration (UF) in peritoneal dialysis (PD), allowing sustained UF during long dwells and maintenance of UF in the face of increased membrane solute transport, while minimizing t...
