P1082COMPARISON OF THE REMOVAL OF PROTEIN-BOUND TOXINS AND LARGE MIDDLE MOLECULES WITH HIGH-FLUX PMMA AND MEDIUM CUT-OFF DIALYZERS
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…

Biomonitoring of Phthalates, Bisphenols and Parabens in Children: Exposure, Predictors and Risk Assessment
Exposure to emerging contaminants, such as phthalates, bisphenols and parabens in children has been associated with possible neurodevelopment and endocrine alterations. In the present study, the biomonitoring of biomarkers in children (5–12 years old) from the Valencia Region (Spain) have been implemented using urines from the BIOVAL program. More than 75% of the children studied (n = 562) were internally exposed (>
