...: In this phase 3, multicenter, open-label, dose-adjusted study, we investigated the efficacy and safety of JTT-751 in peritoneal dialysis patients. A total of 56 patients with serum phosphate ≥5.6 and <10.0 mg/dl were enrolled in the study. The dose of JTT-751 was adjusted to between 1.5 and 6.0 g/day...

Krediet Background/Aims: The capillary wall coated by the endothelial glycocalyx is the main transport barrier during peritoneal dialysis (PD). Here, we investigated the relationships between measurements of the systemic...

... glomerular filtration rate Peritoneal dialysis Residual renal function The exact evaluation of residual renal function (RRF) is essential in dialysis patients. The preservation of RRF favors the control of phosphorus, blood pressure, edema, and malnutrition [ 1,2,3,4 ]. Several researchers have...

..., predominantly in the posterior white matter. Regarding end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and PRES, only a few cases of children on peritoneal dialysis (PD) and adults on hemodialysis have been described in the literature. Cases: We report 4 cases of adult patients on PD who presented with PRES, all of which were...

... crossing a patent foramen ovale (PFO). Methods: Cognitive testing was carried out in haemodialysis (HD) patients and peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Transthoracic echocardiography was used to identify PFO. Follow-up testing 1 year later enabled comparison of cognitive decline between patients...

.... The median Hb of peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients in the UK was 11.6 g/dl (IQR 10.6–12.5 g/dl). Of UK PD patients, 87.2% had Hb ≥10.0 g/dl. The median ferritin in HD patients in EWNI was 444 µg/L (IQR 299–635) and 96% of HD patients had a ferritin ≥100 µg/L. The median ferritin in PD patients was 264 µg/L...

By 90 days, 68.3% of patients were on haemodialysis, 18.1% on peritoneal dialysis, 7.7% had had a transplant and 5.9% had died or stopped treatment. The mean eGFR at the start of RRT was 8.7 ml/ min/1.73 m 2 which was similar...
