Effect of Increasing Dietary Fiber on Plasma Levels of Colon-Derived Solutes in Hemodialysis Patients

TL;DR: Increasing dietary fiber in hemodialysis patients may reduce the plasma levels of the colon-derived solutes indoxyl sulfate and possibly p-cresol sulfate without the need to intensify dialysis treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Indoxyl Sulfate-Review of Toxicity and Therapeutic Strategies.

TL;DR: Toxicity data, albeit inconclusive, have prompted efforts to lower the plasma levels of indoxyl sulfate through dialytic and non-dialytic means and no trials have yet tested cardiovascular or mortality benefit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Numerous protein-bound solutes are cleared by the kidney with high efficiency

TL;DR: Analysis of solutes efficiently cleared by secretion in the native kidney may provide a potential route to the identification of uremic toxins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prominent Accumulation in Hemodialysis Patients of Solutes Normally Cleared by Tubular Secretion

TL;DR: Molecular modeling showed that prominent accumulation of the normally secreted solutes in hemodialysis patients could be accounted for by lower dialytic clearance relative to physiologic clearance combined with the intermittency of treatment.
