Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
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 ...

The Influence of Microstructural Heterogeneity on Mechanical Properties of Friction Stir Welded Joints of T6-Treated Al-Zn-Mg Alloy 7A52

open access: yesMetals, 2018
A high strength Al-Zn-Mg alloy 7A52 with T6 treatment was successfully friction stir welded. The grain structure, dislocations and precipitates in typical regions of the weld joint, including the weld nugget zone (WNZ), thermos-mechanically affected ...

Mechanisms and mechanics of auditory masking

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 2013
It is rare to hear just one sound at a time. More often than not, our experience of listening to someone speak, or hearing a piece of music, is made more challenging, and possibly more annoying, by the presence of interfering sound, be it traffic noise, air-conditioning rumble, or other people talking at the same time. In extreme situations, such as in

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Conducting composite materials from the biopolymer kappa-carrageenan and carbon nanotubes

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Nanotechnology, 2012
Conducting composite films containing carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were prepared by using the biopolymer kappa-carrageenan (KC) as a dispersant. Rheological studies indicated that 0.5% w/v was the appropriate KC concentration for dispersing CNTs.

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

open access: yesTherapeutic 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.
