Journal ArticleDOI

Dialyzer-related Thrombocytopenia due to a Polysulfone Membrane.

TL;DR: A 72-year-old Japanese woman admitted to the authors' hospital with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis associated with anti-glomerular basement membrane antibody was suggested to have suffered from dialyzer-related thrombocytopenia, and after discontinuation of the PS Dialyzer, DRT was resolved.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Clinical Applicability of Albuminuria Testing in Japanese Hypertensive Patients: The AVA-E Study

TL;DR: In hypertensive patients, the A2 and A3 levels of albuminuria on the CLINITEK MICROALB CREATININE TEST are associated with a previous history of CVD, independent of eGFR, and this test may help to perform CVD risk stratification.
Journal Article

[Dialysis as bridge therapy for renal transplantation: single center experience, a comparison of hemodialysis and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis].

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the influence of dialytic modality on the rate of kidney transplantation and outcome in a single center and found that the transfer rate from peritoneal dialysis (PD) to transplantation was significantly higher than that of HD (1.9%).
Journal ArticleDOI

Successful treatment of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis by hemodialysis and peritoneal lavage using dialysate containing dissolved hydrogen.

TL;DR: The patient was continued on long-term antibiotics for 6 weeks, her PD catheter was removed, and she will undergo intermittent hemodialysis with a tunneled catheter, and in retrospect, she may have had a better outcome with intraperitoneal antibiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement of lean body mass with dual energy X-Ray absorptiometry in dialysis patients and its pitfalls.

TL;DR: Results show that the fluid content could actually have a significant impact on the measurements of TT and LBM by DXA and these values are decreased in accordance with the fluid removal and it is suggested that DXA may overestimate LBM in patients with overhydration.
