Therapeutic parameters for solute removal in hemodialysis.
This paper discusses a new quantitative evaluation of the removal dynamics in the artificial kidney system. New therapeutic parameters (KC/V and CL/V) were introduced into the evaluation. By means of these parameters, which can be determined by simulation analysis, concentration-time profiles of each patient could be drawn during dialysis and off ...

ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Nurses' Attitudes, Nurse-Patient Interactions and Adherence to Treatment by Hemodialysis Patients [PDF]
Relationships among fluid intake and dietary-adherence of 29 hemodialysis patients, nurses' attitudes (liking-disliking) toward these patients, and selected nurses' and patients' verbalizations during hemodialysis treatment were explored. No significant

Sodium Citrate Versus Heparin Locking Solutions for Tunneled Hemodialysis Catheters
Introduction: Hemodialysis catheter dysfunction compromises dialysis adequacy and may limit catheter survival. Strategies to prevent hemodialysis catheter dysfunction include catheter locks, generally either with heparin or citrate.

ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Xenogeneic, extracorporeal liver perfusion in primates improves the ratio of branched-chain amino acids to aromatic amino acids (Fischer's ratio) [PDF]
In fulminant hepatic failure (FHF), the development of hepatic encephalopathy is associated with grossly abnormal concentrations of plasma amino acids (PAA).

Subclavian Vein Stenosis: A Potentially Serious Complication in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients with Permanent Cardiac Pacemakers [PDF]
We report on two hemodialyzed patients in whom subclavian and brachiocephalic vein stenosis secondary to permanent cardiac pacemakers led to massive congestive edema of the same arm after arteriovenous fistula/grafts were created.
