Journal ArticleDOI
The Initiating Dialysis Early and Late (IDEAL) study: study rationale and design
Bruce A. Cooper,Bruce A. Cooper,Pauline Branley,Liliana Bulfone,John F. Collins,Jonathan C. Craig,Jenny Dempster,Margaret B. Fraenkel,Anthony Harris,David Harris,David W. Johnson,Joan Kesselhut,Grant Luxton,Andrew Pilmore,Carol A. Pollock,David J. Tiller +15 more
TL;DR: The IDEAL study will provide evidence for the optimal time to commence dialysis and determine the impact of “early start’ versus “late start” dialysis on nutritional and cardiac morbidity, quality of life, and economic cost.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibacterial honey for the prevention of peritoneal-dialysis-related infections (HONEYPOT): a randomised trial
David W. Johnson,David W. Johnson,David W. Johnson,Sunil V. Badve,Sunil V. Badve,Elaine M. Pascoe,Elaine Beller,Alan Cass,Carolyn Clark,Janak de Zoysa,Janak de Zoysa,Nicole M. Isbel,Nicole M. Isbel,Steven McTaggart,Alicia T. Morrish,E. Geoffrey Playford,E. Geoffrey Playford,Anish Scaria,Paul Snelling,Paul Snelling,Liza A. Vergara,Carmel M. Hawley,Carmel M. Hawley +22 more
TL;DR: The findings of this trial show that honey cannot be recommended routinely for the prevention of peritoneal-dialysis-related infections.
Journal Article
Cyclosporin exerts a direct fibrogenic effect on human tubulointerstitial cells: roles of insulin-like growth factor I, transforming growth factor beta1, and platelet-derived growth factor.
David W. Johnson,Heather J. Saunders,Fiona J. Johnson,Syed O. Huq,Michael Field,Carol A. Pollock +5 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that clinically relevant concentrations of CyA are directly toxic to PTC and CF, irrespective of hemodynamic effects, and promote interstitial fibrosis by inhibiting matrix degradation and stimulating cortical fibroblast collagen synthesis via induction of autocrine IGF-I action.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlling solid-state reaction mechanisms using diffusion length in ultrathin-film superlattice composites
Loreli Fister,David W. Johnson +1 more
TL;DR: The synthetic parameters used by solid-state chemists have essentially been limited to temperature, pressure, composition, and time as discussed by the authors, but diffusion length can also be used as a synthetic parameter to alter the pathway of a solid state reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Is the Declining Use of Long-Term Peritoneal Dialysis Justified by Outcome Data?
TL;DR: There is a need for large observational and interventional studies among peritoneal dialysis patients to sustain and enforce the improvements in both dialysis therapies.
