Single needle hemodialysis : is the past the future? [PDF]
Whereas the usual way to gain access to the vascular bed for hemodialysis is by inserting two needles, an alternative option based on the introduction of only one needle has been available for several decades.

Sodium–glucose cotransporter (SGLT) inhibitors are a class of oral hypoglycemic agents, which, in recent years, have been shown to improve renal and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with diabetic and non-diabetic chronic kidney disease.

Serum levels and removal by haemodialysis and haemodiafiltration of tryptophan-derived uremic toxins in ESKD patients [PDF]
Tryptophan is an essential dietary amino acid that originates uremic toxins that contribute to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patient outcomes.

The Microbiome and Uremic Solutes
Uremic retention solutes, especially the protein-bound compounds, are toxic metabolites, difficult to eliminate with progressive renal functional decline.

The retention of uremic toxins and their pathological effects occurs in the advanced phases of chronic kidney disease (CKD), mainly in stage 5, when the implementation of conventional thrice-weekly hemodialysis is the prevalent and life-saving treatment.

Binding of bromocresol green and bromocresol purple to albumin in hemodialysis patients [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Colorimetric albumin assays based on binding to bromocresol purple (BCP) and bromocresol green (BCG) yield different results in chronic kidney disease. Altered dye binding of carbamylated albumin has been suggested as a cause.

Protein-bound uremic toxins (Indoxyl sulfate [IS] and p-cresyl sulfate [PCS]) are both associated with cardiovascular (CV) and all-cause mortality in subjects with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Possible mechanisms have not been elucidated.

Protein-bound uremic solutes: The forgotten toxins
The present concept of dialysis focuses mainly on the removal of small water-soluble compounds, and also, the currently applied kinetic parameters of dialysis adequacy are based on the behavior of water-soluble compounds. Nevertheless, many of the currently known biological effects in uremia are attributable to compounds with different physicochemical ...

Uremic Toxins and Blood Purification: A Review of Current Evidence and Future Perspectives
Accumulation of uremic toxins represents one of the major contributors to the rapid progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially in patients with end-stage renal disease that are undergoing dialysis treatment.

Protein-Bound Uremic Toxins Stimulate Crosstalk between Leukocytes and Vessel Wall [PDF]
Leukocyte activation and endothelial damage both contribute to cardiovascular disease, a major cause of morbidity and mortality in CKD. Experimental in vitro data link several protein-bound uremic retention solutes to the modulation of inflammatory stimuli, including endothelium and leukocyte responses and cardiovascular damage, corroborating ...
