TLDR
Serum albumin merely reflected the presence of a systemic disease, which was the most important risk factor for patient survival, and the results confirm the strength of serum albumin as predictor of survival.Abstract:
ObjectiveTo analyze the effect of serum albumin using immunoturbidimetry, demographic, biochemical, and kinetic factors on survival of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients.Desi...read more

Are there two types of malnutrition in chronic renal failure? Evidence for relationships between malnutrition, inflammation and atherosclerosis (MIA syndrome)
TL;DR: Factors directly associated with the dialytic procedure, such as bio-incompatibility, biochemical markers, serum albumin so far has been the most common to assess malnutrition, and hyponutrient losses in the dialysate and, during PD, poor appetite due to abdominal discomfort and uptake of albuminaemia has sometimes been used to diagnose malnutrition.

Predictors of the rate of decline of residual renal function in incident dialysis patients
Maarten A.M. Jansen,Augustinus A.M. Hart,Johanna C. Korevaar,Friedo W. Dekker,Elisabeth W. Boeschoten,Raymond T. Krediet +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the decline rates of residual renal function (rGFR) prospectively in 522 incident HD and PD patients who had structured follow-up assessments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantifying comorbidity in peritoneal dialysis patients and its relationship to other predictors of survival
TL;DR: Comorbidity has a quantitative effect on survival that is independent of age, RRF and membrane function in PD patients, and appears to be associated with increased solute transport at the start of treatment, which is sustained.

Effect of fluid and sodium removal on mortality in peritoneal dialysis patients.
Kenan Ates,Gokhan Nergizoglu,Kenan Keven,Arzu Sen,Sim Kutlay,Sehsuvar Erturk,Neval Duman,Oktay Karatan,A. Ergün Ertug +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that removal of sodium and fluid is a predictor of mortality in PD patients, whereas Kt/V(urea) and TCC are not factors.

Death Risk in Hemodialysis Patients: The Predictive Value of Commonly Measured Variables and an Evaluation of Death Rate Differences Between Facilities

TL;DR: Strategies designed to improve the overall mortality statistic for dialysis patients in the United States would be better directed toward improving the quality of care for all patients, particularly high-risk patients, within their usual treatment settings rather than trying to identify facilities with high death rate for possible regulatory intervention.

TL;DR: There was a higher incidence of mild to moderate malnutrition in diabetics than in nondiabetics, and in women there was a trend for more anorexia, greater weight loss from muscle wasting, and a larger decrease in albumin, whereas in men there was more gradual decrease in nutritional status.

Serum albumin in patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis--predictors and correlations with outcomes.
TL;DR: The strongest predictors of low SA by stepwise multiple regression were diabetes, a higher dialysate-to-plasma creatinine equilibration ratio, older age, lower body weight, and shorter time on CAPD.
Urea kinetic analysis and clinical outcome on CAPD. A five year longitudinal study.
TL;DR: It is clear that urea kinetic analysis is a powerful tool for prescribing and monitoring therapy in CAPD patients and there is an organic link between the amount of dialysis a patient receives and his/her nutritional status.
