A mathematical model for fluid-glucose-albumin transport in peritoneal dialysis [PDF]

Int. J. Appl. Math.Comp.Sci. vol. 24 (2014) P. 837-851, 2013
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 Dialysis Guidelines 2019 Part 1 (Position paper of Japanese Society of Dialysis Therapy)

Renal Replacement Therapy, 2021
Approximately 10 years have passed since the Peritoneal Dialysis Guidelines were formulated in 2009. Much evidence has been reported during the succeeding years, which were not taken into consideration in the previous guidelines, e.g., the next ...

The impact of intraperitoneal antibiotic administration in patients with peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis: systematic review and meta-analysis

Renal Replacement Therapy, 2020
Background Peritonitis is a common and clinically important complication in patients receiving peritoneal dialysis (PD). Antibiotic administration is essential for PD-related peritonitis, but routes of administration have not been established enough ...

A novel in vivo approach to assess strains of the human abdominal wall under known intraabdominal pressure [PDF]

Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 125 (2022) 104902, 2021
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.

Self-care or assisted PD: development of a new approach to evaluate manual peritoneal dialysis practice ability

Renal Failure, 2022
Background Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a home-based therapy which requires the patients or their caregivers to perform the practice. We aimed to develop a practical approach to evaluate PD practice ability of the patients and to identify berries to self ...

Full-field in vivo experimental study of the strains of a breathing human abdominal wall with intra-abdominal pressure variation [PDF]

Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, Volume 147, November 2023, 106148, 2023
The presented study aims to assess the mechanical behaviour of the anterior abdominal wall based on an in vivo experiment on humans. Full-field measurement of abdominal wall displacement during changes of intra-abdominal pressure is performed using a digital image correlation (DIC) system.

10-year-long survival in a PD patient with severe calcifying encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis treated with tamoxifen: a case-report

BMC Nephrology, 2020
Background Encapsulating-peritoneal-sclerosis (EPS) is a rare, but serious and life-threatening complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD). Treatment of EPS consists of discontinuation of PD and maintenance of nutritional status, whereas the role of ...

Intrarenal and Urinary Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3 Beta Levels in Diabetic and Nondiabetic Chronic Kidney Disease

Kidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2023
Background: Renal glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK3β) overactivity has been associated with a diverse range of kidney diseases. GSK3β activity in urinary exfoliated cells was reported to predict the progression of diabetic kidney disease (DKD).

Capacity Planning for Effective Cohorting of Dialysis Patients during the Coronavirus Pandemic: A Case Study [PDF]

European Journal of Operational Research (2021), 2021
Chronic dialysis patients have been among the most vulnerable groups of the society during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic as they need regular treatments in a hospital environment, facing infection risk. Moreover, the demand for dialysis resources has significantly increased since many COVID-19 patients need acute dialysis due to kidney failure ...
