Sustainable use of reverse osmosis concentrates as alternative draw solutions for phosphorus recovery by Donnan dialysis

Sustainability Science and Technology
To reduce operational costs and improve process sustainability, we propose the use of high salinity wastes as alternative draw solutions for orthophosphate (P(V) as H _2 PO _4 ^– ) recovery by Donnan dialysis.

Glucose-Free Solutions Mediated Inhibition of Oxidative Stress and Oxidative Stress-Related Damages in Peritoneal Dialysis: A Promising Solution

Life
Oxidative stress (OxSt) and inflammation are common in end-stage renal disease and dialysis patients; they are known risk factors for cardiovascular disease and mortality.

Race and Household Income Are Associated With Disease Outcomes in Pediatric Patients With Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody–Associated Vasculitis Hospitalized in the United States

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Race and household income impact outcomes in patients with rheumatic conditions; however, their role in pediatric antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)–associated vasculitis (AAV) remains poorly understood. We aimed to evaluate whether race and ethnicity and household income are associated with severe AAV disease and renal outcomes among

Zein‐Based Adhesives: Sustainable Extraction and Application in Bioadhesive Technologies

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Zein is extracted from corn gluten meal using a simple and scalable process with high yield (~90%). The resulting protein is applied in bioadhesives modified with Ca2+ and Fe3+ ions, exhibiting substrate‐dependent adhesion. The findings demonstrate competitive bonding performance and highlight the role of ionic interactions in tuning adhesion ...

The rabbit model in evaluating the biocompatibility in peritoneal dialysis

, 2001
Rat and rabbit are the most common animal models for peritoneal dialysis. Rats are cheap and easy to keep. Rabbits allow dialysis to be performed for longer periods and in a way very similar to that used in human patients.

DNA‐Templated 2D Heterostructures as Phototriggered Dynamic Nanohybrids: From Releasing Molecular Loads to Controlling Enzyme Biocatalytic Function

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
DNA strands are employed both as dynamic linkers and nanoscale templates for the integration of Ag2S nanoparticles on MoS2, which in turn imparted photothermal responsiveness; this feature permits the selective cargo (fluorophore, quantum dots or an enzyme) release from the MoS2 surface in response to local heat induced by light irradiation.

Rationale and design of ELIXIR, a randomized, controlled trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of XyloCore, a glucose-sparing solution for peritoneal dialysis.

Peritoneal dialysis adoption and technique survival is affected by limitations related to peritoneal membrane longevity and metabolic alterations. Indeed, almost all peritoneal dialysis fluids exploit glucose as an osmotic agent that rapidly diffuses ...
