Association between Dyslipidemia and Peritoneal Dialysis Technique Survival.

Background: A large body of research has investigated the effects of pro-atherogenic lipid profile on cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. However, there is a general lack of research on the association between atherogenic dyslipidemia and PD technique survival.

Aim: The study aimed to define the association between dyslipidemia and PD technique survival.

Oxidative Stress in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients: Association with the Dialysis Adequacy and Technique Survival.

Introduction: Increased oxidative stress is suggested as one of the possible mechanisms of structural and functional damage to the peritoneal membrane in peritoneal dialysis patients. But there are few available data on the association of oxidative stress with peritoneal dialysis adequacy and technique survival. The present study was undertaken to investigate the association of oxidative stress biomarkers with the peritoneal dialysis adequacy and technique survival.
