Sodium toxicity in peritoneal dialysis: mechanisms and "solutions"

open access: yes, 2020
The major trials in peritoneal dialysis (PD) have demonstrated that increasing peritoneal clearance of small solutes is not associated with any advantage on survival, whereas sodium and fluid overload heralds higher risk of death and technique failure ...

What does peritoneal thickness in peritoneal dialysis patients tell us?

open access: yes, 2007
Loss of peritoneal function is a major factor leading to failure of treatment in peritoneal dialysis (PD). Although the precise biologic mechanisms responsible for these changes have not been defined, the general assumption is that alterations in ...

Can n-acetylcysteine preserve peritoneal function and morphology in encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis?

open access: yes, 2009
Long-term use of the peritoneum as a dialysis membrane results in progressive irreversible dysfunction, described as peritoneal fibrosis. Oxidative stress during peritoneal dialysis has been established in many studies.
