Peritoneal transport: getting more complicated
نویسنده
چکیده
A high clearance of low-molecular substances such as urea and creatinine is generally considered advantageous in dialysis. The discovery in the 1990s of increased morbidity [1] and mortality [2, 3] in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients with fast low-molecular (e.g. glucose, creatinine and urea) peritoneal transport (FLMT, also called ‘high transport’) was thus counterintuitive. Several explanations are possible:

Predictive Control of Gas Injection in Natural Gas Transport Networks
The present sought to draw a comparison between Model Predictive Control performance and two other controllers named Simple PI and Selective PI in controlling large-scale natural gas transport networks. A nonlinear dynamic model of representative gas pipeline was derived from pipeline governing rules and simulated in SIMULINK® environment of MATLAB®. Control schemes were designed to provide a s...
متن کاملLongitudinal study of peritoneal membrane function in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis: relationship with peritonitis and fibrosing factors.
BACKGROUND The peritoneal equilibration test (PET) is a useful assessment of peritoneal function in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients. However, the natural course of longitudinal change in peritoneal transport is not well defined. PATIENTS We studied 105 unselected CAPD patients. Average age at enrollment was 50.7 +/- 11.3 years. METHODS A PET was performed at enroll...
متن کاملRole of the Liver in Small-Solute Transport During Peritoneal Dialysis1
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is dependent on the transport of water and solutes from the blood capillaries within the tissues that surround the peritoneal cavity. Because of their large blood supply and surface area, the viscera have been considered the most important tissues for PD transport. In animals, however, removal of the gastrointestinal tract decreases PD small-solute mass transfer by only...
متن کاملPeritoneal glucose exposure and changes in membrane solute transport with time on peritoneal dialysis.
Peritoneal solute transport increases with time on treatment in a proportion of peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients, contributing to ultrafiltration failure. Continuous exposure of the peritoneum to hypertonic glucose solutions results in morphologic damage that may have a causative role in changes in peritoneal function. The purpose of this analysis was to establish whether increased exposure to...
متن کاملTransport of peritoneal membrane assessed before and after the start of peritoneal dialysis.
BACKGROUND Patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) with high small solute peritoneal membrane transport have an increased risk of morbidity and mortality. The membrane transport is currently assessed by peritoneal equilibration test (PET), usually performed after the first month of PD because of the early increase of membrane transport after the start of PD. The aim of this study was the assessmen...
