The association of peritoneal transport properties with 24-hour blood pressure levels in CAPD patients

open access: yes, 2003
Objectives: We aimed to investigate the effects of peritoneal transport characteristics on blood pressure (BP) parameters, measured by 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), and on the development of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in ...

Laparoscopic Surgery Is Associated With Reduced Small Bowel Obstruction Risk After Colorectal Cancer Surgery: A Nationwide Cohort Study of 5458 Patients

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Abbreviated Abstract This nationwide retrospective cohort study of 5458 colorectal cancer surgeries across 32 Japanese institutions examined the effects of laparoscopic surgery, adhesion prevention materials (APMs), and stoma creation on the 5‐year risk of small bowel obstruction (SBO).

Use of icodextrin during nocturnal automated peritoneal dialysis allows sustained ultrafiltration while reducing the peritoneal glucose load: a randomized crossover study

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND: Optimization of ultrafiltration and preservation of the peritoneal membrane are desirable objectives in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Mixtures of glucose- and non-glucose-based solutions may help to meet both targets simultaneously. AIM:

Survival Results by the Prospectively Determined Clinical Staging for Locally Advanced Gastric Cancer: A Follow‐Up Study of JCOG1302A

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Prospectively determined clinical T and N categories clearly stratified long‐term survival in locally advanced gastric cancer. Patients with cT3N+, cT4aN0, cT4aN+, and cT4b disease showed unfavorable prognosis despite standard treatment. These findings may help optimize patient selection for perioperative treatment strategies.

The relationship between peritoneal leukocyte count, fluid cultures, and clinical results in peritonitis among peritoneal dialysis patients: is there a geographic or ethnic difference?

open access: yes, 2021
We investigated peritoneal leukocyte count (PLC) and culture results for correlations with inflammation, nutrition, microbiologic parameters, and the effects of peritonitis on peritoneal equilibration tests (PETs) and clinical outcomes in peritoneal ...

Metastasis Pattern‐Specific Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets in Gastric Cancer: From Surgical Specimens to Clinical Translation

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Gastric cancer metastasis should be considered according to its anatomical route, because lymphatic, peritoneal, and hematogenous dissemination involve partly distinct molecular mechanisms. This review summarizes metastasis pattern‐associated and pattern‐specific molecules identified using surgical specimens, evaluates their evidence and translational ...

Vascular and other tissue calcification in peritoneal dialysis patients

open access: yes, 2009
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and is attributed to a combination of traditional and non-traditional cardiovascular risk factors.

Outcomes of Patients With AL Amyloidosis and End‐Stage Renal Disease After Initiation of Therapy

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In AL amyloidosis, advanced renal disease can impact treatment options and cause significant morbidity. Patients with ESRD requiring dialysis are a group with currently unmet needs. In this collaborative study, we identified 362 patients from three European centers who initiated dialysis during the course of the disease.

Identification of sex- and inflammation-associated heterogeneity in the mouse omentum

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
The omentum is a critical intraperitoneal organ essential for peritoneal homeostasis, yet detailed characterization of its cellular composition remains limited by the lack of validated markers.

Integrating Genetic Modifier Genotype With Serum Proteomics in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Clinical Trials Links LTBP4 Genetic Modifier to IL‐23/CD93 Pathways in Muscle

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Genetic modifiers of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) that alter disease severity or response to therapy have been reported using natural history or registry data sets of older corticosteroid‐treated patients. We tested associations of genetic modifiers on motor function outcomes in young (4 to < 7 years) steroid naïve clinical trial ...
