The challenge of translating ischemic conditioning from animal models to humans: the role of comorbidities

TL;DR: The experimental technique of ischemic conditioning, which entails exposing organs or tissues to brief sub-lethal episodes of ischemia and reperfusion, before, during or after a lethal isChemic insult, is examined and found to confer profound tissue protection against IRI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extracellular volume expansion, measured by multifrequency bioimpedance, does not help preserve residual renal function in peritoneal dialysis patients
