Association Between Individualized Education for Kidney Replacement Therapy Modality Selection and Peritoneal Dialysis Initiation: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Effect of inflammation on the relationship of pulse pressure and mortality in haemodialysis. [PDF]

, 2011
The effect of hypertension on mortality in haemodialysis patients is controversial and can be confounded by non-traditional risk factors like systemic inflammation. This study examined the effect of systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure

The GPX3‐VCAM1 Axis Gates Pro‐Fibrotic Tubule Cell Fate in Hyperuricemic Nephropathy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hyperuricemia induces NLRP3 inflammasome signaling activation and downregulation of GPX3 in proximal tubular epithelial cells, leading to oxidative stress–driven VCAM1 upregulation, emergence of pro‐fibrotic proximal tubule cells, macrophage recruitment, and renal fibrosis.

Safety and Feasibility of Magnetic Separation‐Based Blood Purification

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
We present the preclinical biological safety and translational feasibility of a magnetic nanoparticle‐based extracorporeal blood purification platform for removal of disease‐causing blood factors. ISO 10993‐compliant studies and exaggerated worst‐case exposure models demonstrate efficient nanoparticle extraction (≥99.9%), favorable biocompatibility ...

Effect of bicarbonate based dialysate versus acetate based dialysate on parathormone blood level in haemodialysis treated chronic renal failure patients

African Journal of Nephrology, 2003
Renal osteodystrophy may result from multiple factors. Hyperparathyroidism, hypocalcaemia, hyperphosphataemia, altered vitamin D metabolism and metabolic acidosis are the most common factors. The clinical impact of acidosis on intact parathyroid hormone
