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 (vol 13, pg 1526, 2018).

The global nephrology community recognizes the need for a cohesive strategy to address the growing problem of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). In March 2018, the International Society of Nephrology hosted a summit on integrated ESKD care, including 9...

Peritoneal Protein Clearance Is a Function of Local Inflammation and Membrane Area Whereas Systemic Inflammation and Comorbidity Predict Survival of Incident Peritoneal Dialysis Patients (2019)
Journal Article
Yu, Z., Lambie, M., Chess, J., Williams, A., Do, J., Topley, N., & Davies, S. J. (2019). Peritoneal Protein Clearance Is a Function of Local Inflammation and Membrane Area Whereas Systemic Inflammation and Comorbidity Predict Survival of Incident Peritoneal Dialysis Patients. Frontiers in Physiology, 10, 105 -105. https://doi.org/10.3389/fphys.2019.00105

It is not clear whether the association of increased peritoneal protein clearance with worse survival on PD is a consequence of either local or systemic inflammation or indicative of generalized endothelial dysfunction associated with comorbidity. To...

Transition Between Different Renal Replacement Modalities: Gaps in Knowledge and Care-The Integrated Research Initiative (2019)
Journal Article

Patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) have different options to replace the function of their failing kidneys. The "integrated care" model considers treatment pathways rather than individual renal replacement therapy (RRT) techniques. In such...
