AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to create and implement a nutritional management system for malnutrition in peritoneal dialysis patients using the Omaha System.
  • Seventy-five patients were split into two groups: a control group received standard training, while the intervention group followed a tailored nutritional plan.
  • After six months, the intervention group showed significant improvements in nutritional scores and indicators like BMI and serum albumin compared to the control group.

Article Abstract

Objective: To construct and apply a risk screening and intervention system for malnutrition in peritoneal dialysis patients based on the Omaha System.

Materials And Methods: A total of 75 peritoneal dialysis patients were randomly divided into control (38 cases) and intervention group (37 cases). The control group received routine operation training and health education, and the intervention group implemented a nutritional management plan based on the Omaha System. The modified quantitative subjective comprehensive nutritional scale (MQSGA) score, kidney disease dietary compliance attitude (RAAQ) and behavior (RABQ) score, body mass index (BMI), serum albumin (ALB), prealbumin (PA), and hemoglobin (Hb) were observed.

Results: Before intervention, there was no significant difference in these indicators between the two groups (p > 0.05). After 6 months, the MQSGA score in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the control group (p < 0.05). RAAQ score and RABQ score in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group and (p < 0.05), and the nutritional indicators in the intervention group, such as BMI, ALB, PA, and Hb, were higher than those in the control group (p < 0.05).

Conclusion: A nutritional management plan based on the Omaha System can help improve the nutrition condition of peritoneal dialysis patients, and improve the dietary compliance of chronic kidney disease patients.

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.

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.

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 and kidney transplantation: Your questions answered.

Perit Dial Int

January 2025

Division of Nephrology, St Michael's Hospital, University of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

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.
