A mathematical model for fluid-glucose-albumin transport in peritoneal dialysis [PDF]
A mathematical model for fluid and solute transport in peritoneal dialysis is constructed. The model is based on a three-component nonlinear system of two-dimensional partial differential equations for fluid, glucose and albumin transport with the relevant boundary and initial conditions.

Peritoneal pseudocyst: a rare complication of peritoneal dialysis [PDF]
Peritoneal dialysis is a method of renal function replacement which has a series of advantages like greater autonomy of the patient, but it also has disadvantages, like leakage, peritonitis and abdominal wall weakness.

A novel in vivo approach to assess strains of the human abdominal wall under known intraabdominal pressure [PDF]
The study concerns mechanical behaviour of a living human abdominal wall. A better mechanical understanding of a human abdominal wall and recognition of its material properties is required to find mechanically compatible surgical meshes to significantly improve the treatment of ventral hernias.
