Use of Extracorporeal Therapies to Treat Severe Caffeine Poisoning
ABSTRACT Introduction Reflecting on recent reports suggesting the efficacy of extracorporeal blood purification, including hemodialysis, for severe caffeine poisoning, we conducted a retrospective 5‐year follow‐up study on acute caffeine poisoning in Japan particularly focusing on extracorporeal blood purification.

ABSTRACT Introduction The liver plays an important role to prevent translocation of gut‐derived toxins from the portal to the systemic circulation. Chronic inflammation is common in patients receiving hemodialysis, and increased gut permeability to microbial material has been implicated in its pathogenesis.

Are medium cut-off membranes the future, or the promising reality for chronic hemodialysis patients?
The development of hemodialysis (HD) membranes has substantially advanced in the last decade. This has resulted in the manufacturing of medium cut-off membranes (MCO) whose internal architecture is based on greater pore size and a smaller diameter, thus ...

Cost-Effectiveness of Online Hemodiafiltration
Care of patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is essential but also resource intense. We review several studies on online hemodiafiltration (OL-HDF), which concluded that high-volume OL-HDF is associated with better outcome compared to conventional hemodialysis. The cost-effectiveness of OL-HDF was shown in many studies.

ABSTRACT Introduction Hypoalbuminemia is a well‐established risk factor for mortality in chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients. To evaluate the association of time‐varying serum albumin with the type of dialyzer, we analyzed serum albumin over time in two cohorts of HD patients, one receiving HDx therapy enabled by the Theranova dialyzer and the other ...

Advancing high-volume hemodiafiltration: from concept to CONVINCE
Conventional kidney replacement therapy (KRT) for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) is associated with unmet medical needs, limited efficiency, poor patient outcomes, perception, and high costs. Advancements, including synthetic high-flux membranes, better-

Treatment of hepatic encephalopathy by on-line hemodiafiltration: a case series study
Background It is thought that a good survival rate of patients with acute liver failure can be achieved by establishing an artificial liver support system that reliably compensates liver function until the liver regenerates or a patient undergoes ...

ABSTRACT Although capillary electrophoresis coupled to mass spectrometry (CE‐MS) holds promise for urinary peptide profiling, only a limited number of studies have used CE‐MS to study plasma peptides. Here we describe the establishment of a workflow, including sample preparation, CE‐MS analysis, data processing and normalization optimized for the ...

Background Survival is equivalent between super high-flux hemodialysis (SHF-HD) and online hemodiafiltration (OHDF) with similar albumin leakage. According to the 2013 Japanese dialyzer performance classification, survival on HD is optimal when a type II
