BackgroundA significant proportion of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated glomerulonephritis eventually progresses to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) thus requiring long-term dialysis. There is no consensus about which dialysis modality is more recommended for those patients with associated vasculitis (AAV-ESRD). The primary objective of this study was to compare patient survival in patients with AAV-ESRD treated with hemodialysis (HD) or peritoneal dialysis (PD).MethodsThis double-center retrospective cohort study included dialysis-dependent patients who were treated with HD or PD. Clinical data were collected under standard format. The Birmingham vasculitis activity score (BVAS) was used to evaluate disease activity at diagnosis and organ damage was assessed using the vasculitis damage index (VDI) at dialysis initiation.ResultsIn total, 85 patients were included: 64 with hemodialysis and 21 with peritoneal dialysis. The patients with AAV-PD were much younger than the AAV-HD patients (48 vs. 62, P < 0.01) and more were female (76.2 vs. 51.6%, P = 0.05). The laboratory data were almost similar. The comorbidities, VDI score, and immuno-suppressive therapy at dialysis initiation were almost no statistical difference. Patient survival rates between HD and PD at 1 year were 65.3 vs. 90% (P = 0.062), 3 year were 59.6 vs. 90% (P < 0.001), and 5 years were 59.6 vs. 67.5% (P = 0.569). The overall survival was no significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.086) and the dialysis modality (HD or PD) was not shown to be an independent predictor for all-cause death (hazard ratio (HR) 0.73; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.31–1.7; P = 0.473). Cardio-cerebrovascular events were the main cause of death among AAV-HD patients while infection in patients with AAV-PD.ConclusionThese results provide real-world data that the use of either hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis modality does not affect patient survival for patients with AAV-ESRD who need long-term dialysis.

The Relationship

Background: Hemodialysis is the main approach for renal replacement therapy in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in China. The timing of dialysis initiation is one of the key factors influencing patient survival and prognosis. Over the past decade, the relationship between the timing of dialysis initiation and mortality has remained unclear in patients with ESRD in China. Methods: Patients who commenced maintenance hemodialysis from 2009 to 2014 from 24 hemodialysis centers in Mainland China were enrolled in the study (n = 1,674). Patients were divided into 2 groups based on the year they started hemodialysis (patients who started hemodialysis from 2009 to 2011, and patients who started hemodialysis from 2012 to 2014). Analysis of the yearly change in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at the initiation of dialysis was performed for the 2 groups. Meanwhile, the patients were divided into 3 groups based on their eGFR at the initiation of dialysis (<4, 4–8, and >8 mL/min/1.73 m2). For these 3 groups, the relationship between the eGFR at the start of dialysis and mortality were analyzed. Results: The average eGFRs were 5.68 and 5.94 mL/min/1.73 m2 for 2009–2011 and 2012–2014, respectively. Compared with the 2009–2011 group, the proportion of patients with diabetes in 2012–2014 increased from 26.7 to 37.7%. The prognosis of patients with different eGFRs at the start of dialysis was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier survival curves. After adjusting for confounding factors through a Cox regression model, no significant difference was demonstrated among the 3 groups (<4 mL/min/1.73 m2 was used as the reference, in comparison with 4–8 mL/min/1.73 m2 [p = 0.681] and >8 mL/min/1.73 m2 [p = 0.403]). Conclusion: In Mainland China, the eGFR at the start of dialysis did not change significantly over time from 2008 to 2014 and had no association with the mortality of patients with ESRD.

Abstract Background and Aims Over the last decade, the age of dialysis patients has been increasing steadily worldwide. The benefits of dialysis in older people with end stage renal disease (ESRD) are not clear. We will try to evaluate whether dialysis in older has survival advantage compared to younger people. Method It is a prospective descriptive and analytic study including 229 patients who initiated chronic hemodialysis during the period between January and June 2017. Patients were classified into two groups by age at dialysis initiation. Patients above 75 years of age were considered old (old group OG). Patients aged less then 75 years old were considered young (young group YG). Primary outcome was old patient’s survival during the first 3 and 12 months from the dialysis initiation. Results Among a total of 229 new patients who began dialysis treatment, 41 (17,9%) ESRD were above 75 years of age.The sex ratio was 0,95 and 1,54 in respectively in OG and YG (p = 0,167). Diabetes was present in 56% of the elderly and in 59% of the younger group (p = 0,72) and was more frequently the cause of ESRD in the two groups. The average of modified Charlson Comorbidity Index was 6,7 ± 2,3 and 3,9 ± 2,6 respectively in OG and YG(p = 10-3). Younger patients had been referred earlier to nephrologists than the older ones. In fact, glomerular filtration rate at the beginning of the follow up was 18,7 ± 8,9 ml/min/1,73 in OG and 25,4 ± 16,2 in YG (p = 0,004). There was no statically significant difference between the two groups in the frequency of the use of temporary catheters at dialysis initiation (p = 0,778) and the urgent or planned initiation of dialysis (p = 0,298). Younger patients required hospitalization to organize dialysis initiation more than older patients (51,6% VS 26,8%; p = 0,005). Compared with the group of younger patients, Cox model showed an incremental increase in mortality associated with older patients’ group during the first year of HD (p = 0,036). However, there was no difference between OG and YG in the mortality rate during the first 3 months of HD (p = 0,102). Conclusion We may conclude that life expectancy of patients who began dialysis above 75 years is significantly shorter than younger patients in the first year of HD. In the other hand, the difference between the 2 groups wasn’t significant regarding the conditions of dialysis initiation.

Introduction Low serum albumin is associated with high mortality in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on chronic dialysis. Clinicians are reluctant to offer peritoneal dialysis (PD) as an option for dialysis for patients with low serum albumin due to concerns of loss of albumin with PD, but evidence supporting differences in outcomes is limited. We evaluated mortality based on dialysis modality in patients with very low serum albumin (< 2.5 g/dL). Methods We analyzed United States Renal Data System (USRDS) data from 2010 to 2015 to assess mortality by modality adjusted for age, sex, race, employment, number of comorbidities, and year of dialysis initiation. Results Low serum albumin (< 2.5 g/dL) was present in 78,625 (19.9%) of 395,656 patients with ESRD on chronic dialysis. Patients with low serum albumin were less likely to use PD as their first modality than those with higher albumin (3.1% vs 10.9%; p < 0.001). Use of PD was associated with lower mortality compared with hemodialysis (HD) (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.88, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.81 – 0.95, p < 0.05) in patients with low serum albumin. This difference was more pronounced in patients who had glomerulonephritis (HR = 0.72) or hypertension (HR = 0.81) than in those with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) due to diabetes mellitus or other causes. Conclusion Peritoneal dialysis is less likely to be the first dialysis modality in patients with low serum albumin requiring dialysis. However, PD is associated with lower mortality than HD in patients with low serum albumin on dialysis. We recommend advocating the use of PD in patients with low serum albumin.

Background This report describes the status of renal replacement therapy (RRT), particularly continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), in Romania (a country with previously limited facilities), outlines the fast development rate of CAPD, and presents national changes in a European context. Methods Trends in the development of RRT were analyzed in 2003 on a national basis using annual center questionnaires from 1995 to 2003. Survival data and prognostic risk factors were calculated retrospectively from a representative sample of 2284 patients starting RRT between 1 January 1995 and 31 December 2001 (44% of the total RRT population investigated). Results The annual rate of increase in the number of RRT patients (11%) was supported mainly by an exponential development of the CAPD population (+600%); the hemodialysis (HD) growth rate was stable (+33%) and renal transplantation had a marginal contribution. The characteristics of both HD and PD incident patients changed according to current European epidemiology (increasing age and prevalence of diabetes and nephroangiosclerosis). There were significant differences between PD and HD incident populations, PD patients being significantly older and having a higher prevalence of diabetic nephropathy and baseline comorbidities, probably reflecting different inclusion policies. The estimated overall survival of RRT patients in Romania was 90.6% at 1 year [confidence interval (CI) 89.4 – 91.8] and 62.2% at 5 years (CI 59.4 – 65.0). The initial treatment modality did not significantly influence patients’ survival. There was no difference in unadjusted technique survival during the first 2 years; afterwards, there was a clear advantage for HD, with more patients being transferred from PD to HD. Several factors seemed to significantly and negatively influence PD patients’ survival (Cox regression analysis): male gender, lack of predialysis erythropoietin treatment, and initial comorbidities. Stratified analysis to discover the influence of these factors on patients’ survival revealed that HD was associated with an increased risk of death in the younger nondiabetic end-stage renal disease population, regardless of other coexisting comorbid conditions. However, in older patients (>65 years) and in diabetics, regardless of the presence or absence of associated comorbid conditions, there was no significant difference in death rates between HD and PD patients. Conclusions We report an impressive quantitative and qualitative development of CAPD in one of the rapidly growing Central and Eastern Europe countries. CAPD should be the method of choice for young nondiabetic end-stage renal disease patients. Improvement in predialysis nephrologic care and in transplantation rates is required to further ensure the ultimate success of the Romanian PD program.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to compare straight type versus coiled type Tenckhoff catheter for continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) in end stage renal disease. Material & method: A prospective cohort study enrolled end-stage renal disease patients undergoing CAPD for renal replacement therapy in Urology and Nephrology Department, Sardjito Hospital from January to December 2007. Identity and type of Tenckhoff catheter were recorded. Patients were grouped into two groups who used straight type catheter and coiled type catheter for CAPD, then observed for post-operative complication. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS 14.0 with chi-square test. Results: There were 27 patients included in this study. The cause of end-stage renal disease was mostly DM and hypertension. The most common complication after  operation  was catheter  obstruction  (9 patients). Another complication was intraabdominal bleeding (1 patient), and catheter migration (1 patient). In patients with straight catheter (20 patients), there were 8 patients (40%) with complication. In patients with coiled catheter (7 patients), there were 3 patients (42%) with complication. There was no significant difference in complications between straight and coiled catheter groups (p = 0,895). Conclusion: The result of this study revealed that no significant difference in complication between straight and coiled catheter for CAPD in end-stage renal disease patients

Background: The effect of dialysis modality on the survival of end-stage renal disease patients is a major public health interest. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, all adult end-stage renal disease patients receiving dialysis treatment in Sabah between January 1, 2007 and December 31, 2017 as identified from the Malaysian Dialysis and Transplant Registry were evaluated and followed up through December 31, 2018. The endpoint was all-cause mortality. The observation time was defined as the time from the date of dialysis initiation after the onset of end-stage renal disease to whichever of the following that came first: date of death, date of transplantation, date of last follow-up, date of recovered kidney function, or December 31, 2018. Weighted Cox regression was used to estimate the effect of dialysis modality. Analyses were restricted to patients with complete data on all variables. Results: 1,837 patients began hemodialysis and 156 patients started with peritoneal dialysis, yielding 7,548.10 (potential median 5.48 years/person) and 747.98 (potential median 5.68 years/person) person-years of observation. 3.1% of patients were lost to follow-up. The median survival time was 5.8 years (95% confidence interval: 5.4, 6.3) among patients who started on hemodialysis and 7.0 years (95% confidence interval: 5.9, indeterminate) among those who started on peritoneal dialysis. The effect of dialysis modality was not significant after controlling for confounders. The average hazard ratio was 0.80 (95% confidence interval: 0.61, 1.05) with hemodialysis as a reference. Conclusion: There was no evidence of a difference in mortality between hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.
