Purpose: To assess the dialysability of iobitridol, a comparative study with iohexol was conducted in the rat over 4 hours. Material and Methods: After ligature of the renal veins and arteries, a group of animals was submitted to continuous peritoneal dialysis, while the remainder were not. Results: In the event of total renal failure, biliary excretion rose from 0.4 to 9% for iobitridol and from 2 to 16% for iohexol. In the rats submitted to peritoneal dialysis, biliary excretion decreased to 5% in the iobitridol group and to 13% in the iohexol group. Further, 18% of the test substances were eliminated in the dialysis liquid. Conclusions: As their physicochemical characteristics are very similar, the differences between the biliary excretion levels of these 2 media may be caused by a factor related to their respective molecular conformations.

Objective Previous studies have shown that patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) treated with continuous peritoneal dialysis (CPD) have better preservation of endogenous renal function than patients treated with hemodialysis (HD). We wondered if this better preservation of endogenous renal function seen with CPD patients translates into the improved likelihood of recovery of endogenous renal function in those patients with potentially reversible causes of renal failure. Methods To evaluate this question, we reviewed the records of all 1200 patients that completed CPD training at a large, freestanding peritoneal dialysis center in New Haven, Connecticut, between 1979 and 1999, and the records of all patients completing CPD training in New England between 1993 and 1998. In New Haven, about half the new patients with ESRD were started on CPD compared to only 15% in New England. We then compared the chances of recovery of renal function in these two cohorts of CPD patients to the chances of recovery of renal function in two groups of HD patients. The first group consisted of all patients that started on HD in New England between 1993 and 1998. The second group consisted of all patients that started HD in our HD unit in New Haven, Connecticut, between 1993 and 1999. The data on the New England patients were provided by the ESRD Network of New England. All patients entered into the present study had to have been on dialysis for a minimum of 3 months, as in the United States Renal Data System database, and had to have recovered sufficient renal function to be able to be maintained off dialysis for a minimum of 30 days. Results 29 of 1200 CPD patients (2.4%) trained in New Haven recovered sufficient renal function to permit the discontinuation of dialysis for a minimum of 30 days. In comparison, only 305 of 19 032 patients (1.6%) managed with HD in New England ( p < 0.05 compared to New Haven CPD patients) and 3 of 430 patients (0.7%) in our HD center ( p < 0.05 compared to New Haven CPD patients) recovered sufficient glomerular filtration rate (GFR) to allow the discontinuation of dialysis for at least 30 days. If only those CPD patients that initiated dialysis between 1993 and 1999 in New Haven were analyzed, 15 of 369 (4.1%) recovered sufficient GFR to allow discontinuation of dialysis for at least 30 days ( p < 0.025 compared to both groups of HD patients). Of the 2924 patients completing CPD training in New England, 60 (2.1%) recovered renal function; this percentage is not significantly different from the percent of HD patients in New England recovering renal function. Conclusion Although the present study is a retrospective study and the actual criteria for selection of CPD and HD therapy are not controlled for, the data raise the question of whether there may be a therapeutic advantage to treating newly diagnosed ESRD patients, that have a potentially reversible cause of renal failure, with CPD.

Introduction:Most of patients with chronic renal failure are affected by normochromic, normocytic anemia caused by different etiological factors. Anemia causes a series of symptoms in chronic renal failure, which can hardly be recognized from the uremic signs. Anemia adds to morbidity and mortality rates in patients affected by advanced chronic renal failure. Blood count partially improves during the first months after starting the chronic renal replacement therapy, in correlation with the quality of depuration program, with extension of erythrocyte lifetime and with hemoconcentration due to reduction of plasma volume. Recent trials found that higher residual renal function (RRF) significantly reduced co-morbidity, the rate and duration of hospitalization and risk of treatment failure. Objective: The aim of the study was to follow blood count parameters in 32 patients on chronic continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) during the first six months of treatment, to evaluate the influence of demographic and clinical factors on blood count and RRF, and to examine the correlation between RRF and blood count parameters. Method: A total of 32 patients affected by end-stage renal disease of different major cause during the first six months of CADP treatment were studied. RRF and blood count were evaluated as well as their relationship during the follow-up. Results: Blood count significantly improved in our patients during the first six months of CAPD treatment even if Hb and HTC failed to reach normal values. Iron serum level slightly decreased because of more abundant erythropoiesis and iron utilization during the first six months of treatment. RRF slightly decreased. After six months of CAPD treatment, the patients with higher RRF had significantly higher Hb, HTC and erythrocyte number and a lot of positive correlations between RRF and anemia markers were observed. Conclusion: After 6-month follow-up period, the patients with higher RRF had significantly higher blood count parameters, and several positive correlations between RRF and blood count markers were confirmed.

Objective To evaluate the adequacy of dialysis in patients on nighttime intermittent peritoneal dialysis (NIPD). Design Retrospective review of prospectively collected data. Patients Seven patients on NIPD. Measurements The fast peritoneal equilibration test (PET) was used to determine peritoneal membrane permeability for small solutes. Adequacy of dialysis measured by 24hour collections of dialysate and urine for weekly KT/V and creatinine clearance in liters/week/1.73 m2 was assessed in patients with (n=3) and without (n=4) residual renal function and evaluated in concert with the patient's clinical status. Outcome for each patient was also noted. Results Five of the patients had a high-average dialysate/serum creatinine by PET (>0.66). Despite a weekly KT/V of 1.7 or more, four of the seven patients on NIPD were uremic and either transferred to hemodialysis or continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis (CCPD). A fifth patient had a KT/V of 1.4 and was also uremic on NIPD. The patient who was clinically well and continued on NIPD had significant residual renal function. Conclusions NIPD should be restricted to patients with high-average dialysate/serum creatinine as determined by PET and residual renal function or those with high dialysate/serum creatinine. Extended dialysis time and large volumes of dialysate are required for successful NIPD in patients without residual renal function. Accepted parameters of dialysis adequacy used for patients on continuous peritoneal dialysis are not appropriate for intermittent forms of peritoneal dialysis.

Background In some parts of the world, peritoneal dialysis is widely used for renal replacement therapy (RRT) in acute kidney injury (AKI), despite concerns about its inadequacy. It has been replaced in recent years by hemodialysis and, most recently, by continuous venovenous therapies. We performed a prospective study to determine the effect of continuous peritoneal dialysis (CPD), as compared with daily hemodialysis (dHD), on survival among patients with AKI. Methods A total of 120 patients with acute tubular necrosis (ATN) were assigned to receive CPD or dHD in a tertiary-care university hospital. The primary endpoint was hospital survival rate; renal function recovery and metabolic, acid–base, and fluid controls were secondary endpoints. Results Of the 120 patients, 60 were treated with CPD (G1) and 60 with dHD (G2). The two groups were similar at the start of RRT with respect to age (64.2 ± 19.8 years vs 62.5 ± 21.2 years), sex (men: 72% vs 66%), sepsis (42% vs 47%), shock (61% vs 63%), severity of AKI [Acute Tubular Necrosis Individual Severity Score (ATNISS): 0.68 ± 0.2 vs 0.66 ± 0.22; Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II: 26.9 ± 8.9 vs 24.1 ± 8.2], pre-dialysis blood urea nitrogen [BUN (116.4 ± 33.6 mg/dL vs 112.6 ± 36.8 mg/dL)], and creatinine (5.85 ± 1.9 mg/dL vs 5.95 ± 1.4 mg/dL). In G1, weekly delivered Kt/V was 3.59 ± 0.61, and in G2, it was 4.76 ± 0.65 ( p < 0.01). The two groups were similar in metabolic and acid–base control (after 4 sessions, BUN < 55 mg/dL: 46 ± 18.7 mg/dL vs 52 ± 18.2 mg/dL; pH: 7.41 vs 7.38; bicarbonate: 22.8 ± 8.9 mEq/L vs 22.2 ± 7.1 mEq/L). Duration of therapy was longer in G2 (5.5 days vs 7.5 days; p = 0.02). Despite the delivery of different dialysis methods and doses, the survival rate did not differ between the groups (58% in G1 vs 52% in G2), and recovery of renal function was similar (28% vs 26%). Conclusion High doses of CPD provided appropriate metabolic and pH control, with a rate of survival and recovery of renal function similar to that seen with dHD. Therefore, CPD can be considered an alternative to other forms of RRT in AKI.

Objective: Diabetic nephropathy is a serious threat to human health, and its incidence is on the rise. End-stage diabetic nephropathy (ESDN) requires extra investigation due to its complexity and severity, as well as serious concurrent diseases. Our objective was to compare the efficacy of hemodialysis (HD) and peritoneal dialysis (PD) in the treatment of ESDN. Methods: Clinical data of 84 patients with ESDN admitted to our hospital from June 2016 to June 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into an HD group that received hemodialysis and a PD group that received peritoneal dialysis. Their general conditions, biochemical indicators, residual renal function and incidence of complications were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results: (1) No significant difference in diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure, body weight, or urine output was detected between the two groups at the beginning of dialysis (P>0.05). (2) Compared to the PD group, the HD group had significantly lower total cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) (P<0.05), and significantly higher total protein (TP) and albumin (ALB) after treatment (P<0.05). (3) The two groups also showed significant difference in residual renal function after treatment (P<0.05). (4) The HD group had significantly higher systolic pressure than the PD group after treatment (P<0.05). And more cases of infection were observed in the PD group than the HD group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Both HD and PD are used for treatment of ESDN, and can achieve similar calcium and phosphorus control. Compared to HD, PD has less adverse effect on hemodynamics and better preserves residual renal function, but is more likely to cause malnutrition and disorders of lipid metabolism. Therefore, choice of dialysis method should be based on specific conditions of each patient. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.36.7.2901 How to cite this:Xu XD, Han X, Yang Y, Li X.

Abstract Introduction: Renal impairment (RI) is frequent in patients with Multiple Myeloma (MM) and is a proven negative prognostic factor for overall survival (OS). MM patients with impaired renal function often fail to qualify for high-dose chemotherapy and are excluded from autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), since a higher transplant-related mortality has been postulated. However, it remains unclear whether these historical inferior outcome data still hold true in times of modern immuno-chemotherapeutical therapy regimen. Further, nephrologic definition criteria for renal impairment have evolved as well and have not yet been fully introduced into MM patient care. We thus aimed at evaluating outcome data of MM patients undergoing ASCT after immuno-chemotherapy applying current nephrologic standard criteria for RI. Methods: MM patients who had undergone ASCT at our center between 1999 and 2015 were included. Renal function was determined and staged both at the time of diagnosis and transplantation by estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR according to the MDRD formula).RI was defined as eGFR <90 ml/min/m2. For sub-analyses renal failure was further staged according to KDIGO guidelines (CKD stages II, IIIa and IIIb corresponding to an eGFR of <60, <45 and <30 ml/min/m2). Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank tests were used for OS and progression-free survival (PFS) calculation. Results: 195 patients with a median age of 54 years were analyzed. Patients were categorized into 3 groups: i) normal renal function at diagnosis and ASCT ii) impaired renal function at diagnosis with normalization before ASCT and iii) impaired renal function both at the time of diagnosis and ASCT. Estimated mean OS from diagnosis was 93 months (90% CI: 77-109). No difference in OS was found comparing these 3 groups (Figure 1). Estimated mean PFS was 83 months (90% CI: 12-61). Again, in our patient cohort, renal impairment did not negatively impact PFS (Figure 2). In addition, even after further stratification according to the degree of renal failure at the time of ASCT (CKD stage II, IIIa and IIIb), no survival disadvantage was detected for patients with mild to moderate renal failure. Conclusions: In this retrospective analysis, a relatively large cohort of MM patients who had undergone ASCT was analyzed regarding survival data in accordance with their renal function. Since RI is associated with poorer outcome in MM patients, we aimed at working out if this holds true for patients receiving ASCT. In contrast to historical data, our data show that neither OS nor PFS were negatively impacted by mild to moderate RI. Therefore, we conclude that ASCT should rather be considered proactively in MM patients with RI than be withheld, since survival in theses patients seems not to be affected in an adverse manner.
