Biocompatibility of hemodialysis membranes.

Exposure of blood to hemodialysis membranes results in numerous interactions between the blood elements and the membrane. Transformation and adsorption of plasma proteins (such as complement) and activation of blood cells (such as neutrophils and monocytes) have been studied most extensively by nephrologists in recent years. There is no consensus on the definition of biocompatibility for dialyz...

The effect of membrane biocompatibility on plasma beta 2-microglobulin levels in chronic hemodialysis patients.

Several studies have shown that patients who have been dialyzed with high-flux biocompatible membranes have a lower plasma level of beta 2-microglobulin and a lower incidence of amyloid disease compared with patients who have been dialyzed with low-flux bioincompatible membranes. However, because high-flux membranes are associated with significant dialytic removal of beta 2-microglobulin, the s...

Hemodialysis membranes: interleukins, biocompatibility, and middle molecules.

Maintenance hemodialysis patients display evidence of elevated interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor alpha release after stimulation either by contaminated dialysate, bioincompatible membrane material, or both. This release is followed by the stimulated secretion of a large number of other interleukins, particularly IL-6, the cytokine principally responsible for acute-phase protein syn...

Clinical Implications of Congenital Absence of Circumflex Coronary Artery

Introduction: Coronary artery anomalies are rare clinical entities reported in 0.6% to 5.6% of diagnostic coronary angiographies. Anomalous origins of coronary arteries from distal segments are rarely reported. Presented herein is a coronary anomaly in which the circumflex artery (CX) originated as a continuation of the posterolateral branch of the right coronary artery (RCA) w...
