Medium Cut-Off (MCO) Membranes Reduce Inflammation in Chronic Dialysis Patients—A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial [PDF]
Background To increase the removal of middle-sized uremic toxins a new membrane with enhanced permeability and selectivity, called Medium Cut-Off membrane (MCO-Ci) has been developed that at the same time ensures the retention of albumin.

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 ...

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 ...

Hypophosphatemia during continuous veno-venous hemofiltration is associated with mortality in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: The primary aim of this study was to determine whether hypophosphatemia during continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) is associated with the global outcome of critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI).

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 ...

Purity and Stability of Online-Prepared Hemodiafiltration Fluid after Storage [PDF]
<b><i>Background/Aims:</i></b> Previous studies have suggested that online hemodiafiltration (OL-HDF) fluid can be used as dialysate for continuous renal replacement therapies, and thus HDF costs can be reduced. The aims of this study were to determine the purity of OL-HDF fluid and to verify the stability of the electrolyte ...

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 ...

Serum levels and removal by haemodialysis and haemodiafiltration of tryptophan-derived uremic toxins in ESKD patients [PDF]
Tryptophan is an essential dietary amino acid that originates uremic toxins that contribute to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patient outcomes.

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-
