Journal ArticleDOI
Sudden death and associated factors in a historical cohort of chronic haemodialysis patients
Simonetta Genovesi,Maria Grazia Valsecchi,Emanuela Rossi,Daniela Pogliani,Irene Acquistapace,Vincenzo De Cristofaro,Andrea Stella,Antonio Vincenti +7 more
TL;DR: The data show that the incidence of sudden death in haemodialysis patients is high and that atrial fibrillation, diabetes, hyperkalaemia, haemmodialysis mode and C-reactive protein play an important role in developing fatal arrhythmia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term effects of high-efficiency on-line haemodiafiltration on uraemic toxicity. A multicentre prospective randomized study
Luciano A. Pedrini,Vincenzo De Cristofaro,Mario Comelli,Francesco G. Casino,Mario Prencipe,Adriana Baroni,Gesualdo Campolo,Celestina Manzoni,Luigi Coli,Pio Ruggiero,Irene Acquistapace,Laura Auriemma +11 more
TL;DR: On-line high-efficiency HDF resulted in enhanced removal and lower basal levels of small, medium-sized and protein-bound solutes, which are markers or causative agents of uraemic pathologies, mainly inflammation, secondary hyperparathyroidism and dyslipidaemia.
Journal ArticleDOI
On-line mixed hemodiafiltration with a feedback for ultrafiltration control: effect on middle-molecule removal.
TL;DR: The mixed infusion mode in hemodiafiltration, controlled by the TMP-ultrafiltration feedback, seems to improve the efficiency of hemodialysisfiltration by fully exploiting the convective mechanism of solute removal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rate dependence of acute PTH release and association between basal plasma calcium and set point of calcium–PTH curve in dialysis patients
TL;DR: The calcium-PTH relationship was studied in 12 dialysis patients under conditions of induced low and high predialysis plasma Ca(2+) and no significant difference was found between A and B as regards minimal PTH and plasma Ca (2+) at minimal P TH (Camin) in both calcaemic states.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simple approach for assessing equilibrated Kt/Vβ2-M on a routine basis
Francesco G. Casino,Luciano A. Pedrini,Antonio Santoro,Salvatore Mandolfo,Salvatore David,Vincenzo De Cristofaro,Ugo Teatini,Carlo Lomonte,T. Lopez +8 more
TL;DR: The method proposed could become a simple tool to monitor the efficiency of high-flux haemodialysis and convective techniques and to evaluate the adequacy of treatments in terms of MM removal and it might help to better understand the effects of different dialysis schedules.
