A Qualitative Study on Nurses' Caring Experiences With Individuals With Kidney Failure Receiving Haemodialysis.
J Ren Care
March 2025
Department of Emergency and Critical Care Nursing, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi, Ghana.
Background: Kidney failure is a major health issue globally, particularly in Ghana and other low- and middle-income countries. Nurses are centrally involved in the direct care and technical operations of managing individuals with kidney failure, and they have first-hand exposure to the complexities of kidney failure management, including haemodialysis within resource-constrained settings.
Objective: This study explored the experiences of nurses who provide care to individuals with kidney failure receiving haemodialysis in Ghana.
Simulation of fluid flow with Cuprophan and AN69ST membranes in the dialyzer during hemodialysis.

Ingeniería y Tecnología, Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico Facultad de Estudios Superiores Cuautitlan, Av. 1o de Mayo S/N, Santa María las Torres, Campo Uno, 54740 Cuautitlán Izcalli, Edo. de Méx., Cuautitlan Izcalli, Estado de México, 54740, MEXICO.
Hemodialysis is a crucial procedure for removing toxins and waste from the body when kidneys fail to perform this function effectively. This study addresses the need to improve the efficiency and biocompatibility of membranes used in dialyzers. We simulate fluid flow through two types of membranes, Cuprophan (cellulosic) and AN69ST (synthetic), to understand the complex mechanisms involved and quantify key variables such as pressure, concentration, and flow.

Kidney360
November 2024
The Departments of Medicine, Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Healthcare System and Stanford University, Palo Alto, CA, USA 94304.
Background: Hemodialysis may excessively remove valuable solutes. Untargeted metabolomics data from a prior study suggested that ergothioneine was depleted in the plasma of hemodialysis subjects. Ergothioneine is a dietary-derived solute with antioxidant properties.

J Inflamm Res
January 2025
Institute of Nephrology, Zhongda Hospital, Southeast University School of Medicine, Nanjing, Jiangsu, 210009, People's Republic of China.
Objective: This study evaluated the diagnostic value of plasma Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) levels and the index of cardiac electrophysiological balance (iCEB) in identifying silent myocardial ischemia (SMI) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients.
Methods: This cross-sectional observational study involved patients receiving MHD treatment. Data were collected on coronary angiography performed in our hospital from February 2023 to February 2024.
Development and validation of a prediction model for estimating patency rates after treatment of haemodialysis access dysfunction.
J Vasc Access
January 2025
The Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Suzhou Municipal Hospital, Suzhou, Jiangsu, China.
Objective: This study aims to develop a risk assessment model for predicting haemodialysis access dysfunction and to construct a nomogram.
Method: The clinical data of patients with haemodialysis access dysfunction treated at our hospital from October 2020 to January 2024 were retrospectively analysed. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression method was used to filter variables and select predictors, while Cox regression was applied to filter variables and construct a nomogram.
