Journal ArticleDOI

Measuring asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) in CKD: a comparison between enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and liquid chromatography-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry.

TL;DR: In CKD, ELISA overestimates ADMA concentration as compared with LC-MS/MS, and Appropriate calibration is needed when ADMA is measured by ELISA in CKD patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dialysis modality and survival: does the controversy live on?

TL;DR: Overall, survival of incident end-stage renal disease patients is similar for CHD and peritoneal dialysis, but early survival differences may be driven by selection bias.
Journal ArticleDOI

Peritoneal Dialysis: A Scoping Review of Strategies to Maximize PD Utilization.

TL;DR: A scoping review identifying strategies to maximize PD use in adults with ESRD highlights some effective strategies that may be used and highlights the need for further research into strategies to maximizing PD utilization.
Journal ArticleDOI

ACCESS HD pilot: A randomised feasibility trial Comparing Catheters with fistulas in Elderly patientS Starting haemodialysis.

TL;DR: This open-label pilot randomised controlled trial will test the feasibility and safety of randomising elderly people (≥65 years) who start haemodialysis with a central venous catheter, and are eligible to receive a fistula, to a catheter-based strategy (comparator) or to a Fistula-based Strategy (intervention).
Journal ArticleDOI

Selection of peritoneal dialysis among older eligible patients with end-stage renal disease

TL;DR: Patient‐perceived factors that influence choice of dialysis modality in older individuals with ESRD who are eligible for PD and HD are identified and should be considered and/or addressed within PD programs seeking to promote PD.
