The Effect of Automated Versus Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis on Mortality Risk In China

Peritoneal Dialysis International, 2018
Background: There is an emerging practice pattern of automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) in China. We report on outcomes compared to continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) in a Chinese cohort.

Predictors of Residual Renal Function Decline in Patients Undergoing Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis

Peritoneal Dialysis International, 2015
♦ Background: Residual renal function (RRF) is an important prognostic indicator in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients. We determined the predictors of RRF loss in a cohort of incident CAPD patients.

The Effect of Fluid Overload on Clinical Outcome in Southern Chinese Patients Undergoing Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis

Peritoneal Dialysis International, 2015
♦ Background: Fluid overload is frequently present in dialysis patients and one of the important predictors of patient outcome. This study aimed to investigate the influence of fluid overload on all-cause mortality and technique failure in Southern ...

High Glucose Concentrations in Peritoneal Dialysate Are Associated with All-Cause and Cardiovascular Disease Mortality in Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Peritoneal Dialysis International, 2015
♦ Background: The effect of high peritoneal dialysate glucose concentration (PDGC) on all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients is unclear.

Growth in Children Undergoing Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis/Continuous Cycling Peritoneal Dialysis/Automated Peritoneal Dialysis

Peritoneal Dialysis International, 1993
T he association of growth retardation in children with chronic renal failure (CRF) has been appre ciated since the last century (1); however, it was the availability of dialysis and renal transplantation, which facilitated the prolongation of the lives ...

Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis in Limpopo Province, South Africa: Predictors of Patient and Technique Survival

Peritoneal Dialysis International, 2014
♦ Introduction and aim: Continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is not a frequently used modality of dialysis in many parts of Africa due to several socio-economic factors.

Gordonia Species as Emerging Causes of Continuous-Ambulatory-Peritoneal-Dialysis-Related Peritonitis Identified by 16S rRNA and secA1 Gene Sequencing and Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization–Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS)

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2014
We report here four cases of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis caused by three different species of Gordonia. The portal of entry was likely through Tenckhoff catheters.

The Negative Impact of Early Peritonitis on Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Peritoneal Dialysis International, 2014
♦ Background: Peritonitis rate has been reported to be associated with technique failure and overall mortality in previous literatures. However, information on the impact of the timing of the first peritonitis episode on continuous ambulatory peritoneal ...
