In this study we show the results derived from the processing of the data of the Registry of the patients on peritoneal dialysis that initiated renal replacement therapy in Andalucía between January of 1999 and December of 2008. All the information comes from the base of the Registry of Renal Patients of the Andalucia s Health Service. The results show demographic data, distribution by provinces, etiology of the end stage renal disease, reason for election of the peritoneal dialysis, inclusion or not in list of renal transplant, catheter data, withdraws and their causes, and peritonitis data of 2008. We also analyze in the report, from 1999-2008: annual incidence, diabetes, automatic peritoneal dialysis and peritonitis incidence. Finally we have studied patient and technique survival and factors affecting mortality on peritoneal dialysis, the initial comorbid conditions and its impact in the patient s survival.

MAIT Cell-Mediated Immune Mechanisms of Dialysis-Induced Peritoneal Fibrosis and Therapeutic Targeting.
J Am Soc Nephrol

Nephrology Division, Department of Medicine, the Third Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, 510630, China.
Background: Peritoneal fibrosis is a serious complication of long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD) and abdominal surgeries, yet effective treatments remain elusive. Given the known roles of mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells in immune responses and fibrotic diseases, we investigated their involvement in PD-induced peritoneal fibrosis to identify potential therapeutic targets.
Methods: We employed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and flow cytometry to characterize the activation and function of peritoneal MAIT cells in patients undergoing long-term PD.
Co-Producing Peritoneal Dialysis Nursing Sensitive Indicators for Quality Care: A Multinational Consensus Building Design.

March 2025
Department of Renal Medicine, Aarhus University Hospital, Aarhus, Denmark.
Background: Nursing sensitive indicators are a way of measuring aspects of patient care that are most affected by the actions of the nurse. Despite the existence of nursing sensitive indicators, these are largely not suitable to measure peritoneal dialysis nursing practice.
Objective: This project aimed to co-develop a set of peritoneal dialysis nursing-sensitive indicators.
Detections of Chemicals and Migratory Plastics in Peritoneal Dialysis Fluids.

Background: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an important modality of renal replacement therapy (RRT). Peritonitis and ultrafiltration failure are complications that have a long-term impact on PD patients. Besides touch contamination, procedural errors and clinical reasons of peritonitis, contaminants, and constituents of peritoneal dialysis fluids (PDFs) have been implicated in causing peritonitis and ultrafiltration failure.

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) and kidney transplantation are important therapeutic options in patients with advanced kidney disease. This article delineates the relationship between PD and kidney transplantation in several key domains, including: (1) Comparative merits and limitations of PD versus center-based hemodialysis prior to kidney transplantation, (2) Patient outcomes after kidney transplantation in individuals receiving PD prior to kidney transplantation, (3) Perioperative management strategies of patients receiving PD at the time of kidney transplantation, and (4) The relative advantages and clinical outcomes of PD use following kidney allograft failure compared to other modalities. This article aims to provide comprehensive guidance for optimizing care across the PD-kidney transplant transitions continuum.
