Comparison of Marital Satisfaction in Hemodialysis and Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
Alternative kidney treatments, including renal transplantation, hemodialysis (HD), and peritoneal dialysis (PD), are administered when severe kidney failure occurs and the kidney can no longer function. The present study compares different dimensions of marital satisfaction in HD and PD patients so as to assist physicians and patients in choosing their appropriate treatment. This cross-se...
متن کاملPlasma volume, albumin, and fluid status in peritoneal dialysis patients.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients may be overhydrated especially when inflammation is present. We hypothesized that patients with a plasma albumin below the median value would have measurable overhydration without a proportional increase in plasma volume (PV). DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS We investigated a cross-sectional sample of 46 prevalent PD pa...
متن کاملPlasma ghrelin levels in patients undergoing haemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.
BACKGROUND Ghrelin has been characterized as a relevant physiologic regulator of appetite and body weight in humans. However, the potential relationships between ghrelin levels, inflammation and malnutrition in dialysis patients have not been adequately studied. METHODS We used a cross-sectional design to study 20 haemodialysis (HD) and 21 peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients, and compared their...
متن کاملGhrelin plasma levels and appetite in peritoneal dialysis patients.
Anorexia-associated malnutrition is a severe complication that increases mortality in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Ghrelin is a recently-discovered orexigenic hormone with actions in brain and stomach. We analyzed, in 42 PD patients, the possible relationship between ghrelin and appetite regulation with regard to other orexigens [neuropeptide Y (NPY), NO3] and anorexigens [cholecystokinin...
