P1082COMPARISON OF THE REMOVAL OF PROTEIN-BOUND TOXINS AND LARGE MIDDLE MOLECULES WITH HIGH-FLUX PMMA AND MEDIUM CUT-OFF DIALYZERS
2020
Abstract Background and Aims Dialytic clearance of protein-bound toxins and large middle molecules is poor by diffusive treatment and limited by high-flux hemodialysis (HD) and on-line hemodiafiltration (OL-HDF), and only a few studies have examined how to improve their removal by other extracorporeal strategies. Since 2017, there is a new generation of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) membranes that suppress platelet adhesion on the membrane surface improving hemocompatibility and permeability, while also maintaining adsorption properties related to conventional PMMA membranes. Expanded HD (HDx) with medium cut-off (MCO) membranes has also recently been incorporated into clinical practice an…

The effect of cholecalciferol for lowering albuminuria in chronic kidney disease: a prospective controlled study.
2013
Background. Growing evidence indicates that vitamin D receptor activation may have antiproteinuric effects. We aimed to evaluate whether vitamin D supplementation with daily cholecalciferol could reduce albuminuria in proteinuric chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Methods. This 6-month prospective, controlled, intervention study enrolled 101 non-dialysis CKD patients with albuminuria. Patients with low 25(OH) vitamin D [25(OH)D] and high parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels (n = 50; 49%) received oral cholecalciferol (666 IU/day), whereas those without hyperparathyroidism (n = 51; 51%), independent of their vitamin D status, did not receive any cholecalciferol, and were considered as the co…

The effect of high-volume online haemodiafiltration on nutritional status and body composition: the ProtEin Stores prEservaTion (PESET) study
2018
Background Compared with conventional haemodialysis (HD), online haemodiafiltration (OL-HDF) achieves a more efficient removal of uraemic toxins and reduces inflammation, which could favourably affect nutritional status. We evaluate the effect of OL-HDF on body composition and nutritional status in prevalent high-flux HD (HF-HD) patients. Methods In all, 33 adults with chronic kidney disease (CKD) Stage 5 undergoing maintenance HF-HD were assigned to post-dilution OL-HDF (n = 17) or to remain on HF-HD (n = 16, control group) for 12 months. The primary outcome was the change in lean tissue mass (LTM), intracellular water (ICW) and body cell mass (BCM) assessed by multifrequency bioimpedance …
