Journal ArticleDOI
C-Reactive protein predicts all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis patients.
TL;DR: Although values for blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, and normalized protein catabolic rate were significantly less among patients who died, these parameters, as well as cholesterol level and diabetes, were not important predictors of death in multivariate analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute-phase response predicts erythropoietin resistance in hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis patients
TL;DR: In well-dialyzed patients who were iron replete, the acute-phase response was the most important predictor of EPO resistance, and EPO/Hct was independent of PTH and aluminum levels, PCRn, and Kt/V.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extended daily dialysis: A new approach to renal replacement for acute renal failure in the intensive care unit.
TL;DR: EDD eliminated the need for constant supervision of the dialysis machine by a subspecialty dialysis nurse, allowing one nurse to manage more than one treatment, and was technically easier to perform.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors influencing serum albumin in dialysis patients.
Jane Y. Yeun,George A. Kaysen +1 more
TL;DR: Inflammation and positive acute-phase reactants, produced in response to inflammation, have been identified as important contributors to hypoalbuminemia in dialysis patients and markers of inflammation and peritoneal albumin loss as independent predictors in PD patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute phase proteins and peritoneal dialysate albumin loss are the main determinants of serum albumin in peritoneal dialysis patients
Jane Y. Yeun,George A. Kaysen +1 more
TL;DR: The relationship between serum albumin concentration and a group of parameters including dialysis dose delivered, normalized protein catabolic rate (PCRn), transperitoneal and urinary albumin losses, and the serum concentration of two acute-phase proteins, C-reactive protein (CRP), and serum amyloid A (SAA) was determined.
