Human peritoneal mesothelial cell death induced by high-glucose hypertonic solution involves Ca2+ and Na+ ions and oxidative stress with the participation of PKC/NOX2 and PI3K/Akt pathways [PDF]

, 2017
Indexación: Web of Science; Scopus.Chronic peritoneal dialysis (PD) therapy is equally efficient as hemodialysis while providing greater patient comfort and mobility. Therefore, PD is the treatment of choice for several types of renal patients. During PD,

Peritoneal dialysis in older adults: evaluation of clinical, nutritional, metabolic outcomes, and quality of life [PDF]

, 2018
The number of older adults requiring dialysis is increasing worldwide, whereas the use of peritoneal dialysis (PD) in this population is lower respect to younger patients, despite the theoretical advantages of PD respect to hemodialysis.

Assessment of the effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers in peritoneal dialysis patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis on clinical trials

Renal Replacement Therapy, 2019
Background Renin-angiotensin system inhibitors (RASIs), either angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers, are widely used in patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease, as a renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade ...

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).
