Serum Sphingosine-1-phosphate level and peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis patients

Renal Failure, 2020
Background Given the important role of Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) in maintaining the hemostasis in intestinal barrier function and regulation of inflammation and immune, we hypothesize that S1P might be a biomarker to predict peritonitis in peritoneal

Peritonitis-induced peritoneal injury models for research in peritoneal dialysis review of infectious and non-infectious models

Renal Replacement Therapy, 2017
Peritonitis is an important complication of peritoneal dialysis. Several animal peritonitis models have been described, including bacterial and fungal models that are useful for studying inflammation in peritonitis. However, these models have limitations

Evaluation of modifiable risk factors for peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis: a single-center retrospective cohort study

Renal Replacement Therapy, 2021
Background Peritoneal dialysis (PD)-related peritonitis risk factors can be categorized as modifiable and uncorrectable. We aimed to identify modifiable risk factors for PD-related peritonitis in our facility to prevent PD-related peritonitis and ...

Evaluation of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis fluid C-reactive protein in patients with peritonitis

Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2016
Severe peritonitis causing death is one of the most devastating complications of peritoneal dialysis (PD). Since the predictive value of C-reactive protein (CRP) in PD fluid has not been assessed, the objective of the present study is to evaluate its ...

Peritoneal Fluid Titer Test for Peritoneal Dialysis-Related Peritonitis [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2004
ABSTRACT Standard microbiological tests (i.e., MIC) do not account for the unique factors of peritoneal dialysis (PD)-related peritonitis which can significantly influence treatment response. Our goals were to develop a peritoneal fluid titer (PFT) test and to conduct a pilot study of its association with clinical outcome.

[Tuberculous peritonitis in peritoneal dialysis].

Nefrologia : publicacion oficial de la Sociedad Espanola Nefrologia, 2009
We report a patient in Automatic Peritoneal Dialysis (APD) with tuberculous peritonitis by possible peritoneal infection due to the proximity between fallopian tube and the left ovary, a peritoneal liquid culture was constantly negative. The patient presented a bad clinic evolution.

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Discovery of H2 Receptor Antagonists as Colistin Enhancers by Targeting Acid Stress Response

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies YqgB as a key target for restoring colistin susceptibility in mcr‐positive pathogens under acidic conditions by remodeling phospholipid composition and reducing LPS modification. Deep learning‐based screening reveals H2 receptor antagonists as novel colistin adjuvants. Further investigations indicate that ranitidine and famotidine
