Peritonitis-induced peritoneal injury models for research in peritoneal dialysis review of infectious and non-infectious models

Renal Replacement Therapy, 2017
Peritonitis is an important complication of peritoneal dialysis. Several animal peritonitis models have been described, including bacterial and fungal models that are useful for studying inflammation in peritonitis. However, these models have limitations

Chronic Kidney Disease‐Associated Pruritus Is Linked to Selective Enrichment of Taurine‐Conjugated Bile Acid Subspecies

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Chronic kidney disease‐associated pruritus (CKDaP) is a frequent complication of advanced CKD with an incompletely understood pathophysiology. We identified a significantly altered glycine‐to‐taurine conjugated bile acid ratio in patients with CKDaP despite unchanged total serum bile acid concentrations.

Management of Acute Kidney Injury Using Peritoneal Dialysis in a Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) with Bilateral Ureteral Obstruction

Journal of Zoological and Botanical Gardens
An adult female bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) housed at a public oceanarium presented with acute anorexia and lethargy. A blood analysis demonstrated mild leukocytosis, marked azotemia, hyperkalemia, and hyperphosphatemia suggestive of acute ...

Different prescribed doses of high-volume peritoneal dialysis and outcome of patients with acute kidney injury. [PDF]

, 2011
The optimal dialysis dose for the treatment of acute kidney injury (AKI) is controversial. No studies have directly examined the effects of peritoneal dialysis (PD) dose on outcomes in AKI.

Anchored but not safe: Rare but serious mechanical complications from peritoneal dialysis catheter suture fixation

UroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter fixation techniques are frequently employed to minimize migration and optimize dialysate flow. While mechanical complications of PD catheters are well recognized, adverse events directly attributable to anchoring sutures are rarely described. We report two patients with end‐stage renal failure (ESRF)

Gastrointestinal Stimulation as a Prevention of Postoperative Ileus Following Extensive Surgery (STIMULATE)‐ a Pilot Feasibility Study

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
This randomized feasibility study evaluated the safety and feasibility of gastric electrical stimulation for the prevention of postoperative ileus after extensive abdominal surgery. The intervention was safe and well tolerated. These findings support further clinical investigation of gastrointestinal stimulation as a potential strategy to reduce ...
