Hemorheological measurements were made in 8 stable chronic haemodialysis patients observed in conventional acetate dialysis (AD) with Cuprophan membrane and then in biofiltration (BF) with PAN AN69S membrane. Blood viscosity diminished at the beginning, both during BF and AD, reaching pre-dialytic values again at the end of treatment. Blood and erythrocyte filtration increased after 20 min in AD and throughout the session in BF. Preliminary results suggest an improvement of hemorheological parameters during dialytic treatment, more notable in BF than in AD.

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a well-known complication of critical illnesses, significantly affecting morbidity and the risk of death. Diuretics are widely used to ameliorate excess fluid accumulation and oliguria associated with AKI. Their popularity stems from their ability to reduce the energy demands of renal tubular cells by inhibiting transporters and flushing out intratubular casts.

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.

The objective of this scoping review was to answer the question, "What has been published describing drug dosing in sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED)?" PubMed, Embase, and Scopus were searched on November 18, 2022. Methodology followed the Arksey and O'Malley framework for scoping reviews and Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Extension for Scoping Reviews guidelines. Two investigators independently screened abstracts and full-texts of citations identified related to drug dosing and SLED.

This study rapidly identified and quantified the chemical components of the Wuzhuyu Decoction nanophase(WZYD-N) and suspension phase(WZYD-S) using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry(UPLC-QQQ-MS/MS). Based on preliminary pharmacodynamic experiments and network pharmacology analysis, the differential anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities of WZYD-N and WZYD-S were explored to understand their pharmacodynamic basis. WZYD-N and WZYD-S were separated by differential centrifugation-dialysis, and their particle size, Zeta potential, PDI, and morphology were characterized by dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy.

Gut microbiota is a complex and dynamic system that plays critical roles in human health and various disease. Progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD) suggests that patients irreversibly progress to end-stage kidney disease and need renal replacement treatments, including dialysis and transplantation. Ample evidence indicates that local oxidative stress and inflammation play pivotal roles in the pathogenesis and progression of CKD and dysbiosis of gut microbiota.
