Abstract Chronic volume overload is a major risk factor of hypertension and mortality in chronic dialysis patients. However, the mechanisms responsible for hypertension are unclear. We studied 32 patients (age 23–68 years, 19 females) in chronic hemodiafiltration classified by their interdialytic ambulatory blood pressure (idABP, mmHg) in three groups:

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Data science approaches have been increasingly implemented in healthcare big data to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of drugs. Association discovery is a data mining approach that finds potentially associated elements in high‐dimensional data. We present a novel implementation of the association discovery approach in longitudinal healthcare data ...

Analisi costo/efficacia di sevelamer nel trattamento dell’iperfosforemia del paziente in dialisi [PDF]
Dialysis-associated hyperphosphatemia has been treated with chelating calcium salts, in particular with calcium carbonate. A new option for the management of this problem is represented by sevelamer, a chelating agent which contains no calcium and no ...
