Abstract
The transitory change of fluid and solute transport parameters occurring during the initial phase of a peritoneal dialysis dwell is a well-documented phenomenon; however, its physiological interpretation is rather hypothetical and has been disputed. Two different explanations were proposed: (1) the prevailing view-supported by several experimental and clinical studies-is that a vasodilatory effect of dialysis fluid affects the capillary surface area available for dialysis, and (2) a recently presented alternative explanation is that the molecular radius of glucose increases due to the high glucose concentration in fresh dialysis fluid and that this change affects peritoneal transport parameters. The experimental bases for both phenomena are discussed as well as the problem of the accuracy necessary for a satisfactory description of clinical data when the three-pore model of peritoneal transport is applied. We show that the correction for the change of transport parameters with dwell time provides a better fit with clinical data when applying the three-pore model. Our conclusion is in favor of the traditional interpretation namely that the transitory change of transport parameters with dwell time during peritoneal dialysis is primarily due to the vasodilatory effect of dialysis fluids.

Abstract
ObjectivePeritoneal membrane function influences dialysis prescription and clinical outcome and may change with time on treatment. Increasingly sophisticated tools, ranging from the peritoneal equilibration test (PET) to the standard permeability analysis (SPA) and personal dialysis capacity (PDC) test, are available to the clinician and clinical researcher. These tests allow assessment of a number of aspects of membrane function, including solute transport rates, ultrafiltration capacity, effective reabsorption, transcellular water transport, and permeability to macromolecules. In considering which tests are of greatest value in monitoring long-term membrane function, two criteria were set: those that result in clinically relevant interpatient differences in achieved ultrafiltration or solute clearances, and those that change with time in treatment.Study SelectionClinical validation studies of the PET, SPA, and PDC tests. Studies reporting membrane function using these methods in either long-term (5 years) peritoneal dialysis patients or longitudinal observations (> 2 years).Data ExtractionDirectly from published data. Additional, previously unpublished analysis of data from the Stoke PD Study.ResultsSolute transport is the most important parameter. In addition to predicting patient and technique survival at baseline, there is strong evidence that it can increase with time on treatment. Whereas patients with initially high solute transport drop out early from treatment, those with low transport remain longer on treatment, although, over 5 years, a proportion develop increasing transport rates. Ultrafiltration capacity, while being a composite measure of membrane function, is a useful guide for the clinician. Using the PET (2.27% glucose), a net ultrafiltration capacity of < 200 mL is associated with a 50% chance of achieving less than 1 L daily ultrafiltration at the expense of 1.8 hypertonic (3.86%) exchanges in anuric patients. Using a SPA (3.86% glucose), a net ultrafiltration capacity of < 400 mL indicates ultrafiltration failure. While there is circumstantial evidence that, with time on peritoneal dialysis, loss of transcellular water transport might contribute to ultrafiltration failure, none of the current tests is able to demonstrate this unequivocally. Of the other membrane parameters, evidence that interpatient differences are clinically relevant (permeability to macro-molecules), or that they change significantly with time on treatment (effective reabsorption), is lacking.ConclusionA strong case can be made for the regular assessment by clinicians of solute transport and ultrafiltration capacity, a task made simple to achieve using any of the three tools available.

Abstract
ObjectiveTo provide guidelines on choosing dialysis solutions for children on chronic peritoneal dialysis (PD).SettingEuropean Paediatric Peritoneal Dialysis Working Group.Data SourceLiterature on the application of PD solutions in children ( Evidence), and discussions within the group ( Opinion).ConclusionsGlucose is the standard osmotic agent for PD in children ( Evidence). The lowest glucose concentration needed should be used ( Opinion). Low calcium solution (1.25 mmol/L) should be applied, wherever possible, with careful monitoring of parathyroid hormone levels ( Opinion). The use of amino acid-containing dialysis fluids can be considered in malnourished children, although aggressive enteral nutrition is preferred ( Opinion). There is insufficient evidence documenting the efficacy of intraperitoneally administered amino acids ( Evidence). When ultrafiltration and/or solute removal are insufficient, poly-glucose solutions are a welcome addition to the treatment of children on nocturnal intermittent PD ( Evidence). However, in the absence of any reported long-term experience with children, their use must be closely monitored ( Opinion). Bicarbonate would appear to be the preferred buffer for PD in children, but more in vivo studies are required before it replaces the present lactate-containing solutions ( Evidence/Opinion).

Abstract
High concentrations of lactate are considered to contribute to impairment of the peritoneal membrane. We investigated the longer-period effects of bicarbonate/lactate-buffered neutral peritoneal dialysis fluid (PDF) in patients undergoing PD for about 2 years. Patients undergoing PD were changed from a lactate-buffered neutral PDF to a bicarbonate/lactate-buffered neutral PDF. We then investigated the patients' clinical outcomes and peritoneal membrane functions as well as the surrogate markers in the drained dialysate. Fourteen patients undergoing PD were enrolled. Peritonitis was observed in one patient. No other adverse events were observed. Peritoneal function did not change as the ultrafiltration volume decreased. Fibrin degradation products and vascular endothelial growth factor in the drained dialysate decreased while the interleukin level increased. These results suggest that bicarbonate/lactate-buffered neutral PDF may have beneficial effects in terms of peritoneal preservation and can be safely used in patients undergoing PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conventional treatments for patients suffering with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) has several disadvantages, highlighting the importance of other reproducible modalities such as colonic dialysis (CD). OBJECTIVES The aim was to establish a CD model in uremic rats and evaluate the effect of two different peritoneal dialysis (PD) solutions. METHODS Thirty-two male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups. After right nephrectomy and left partial nephrectomy, a Malone antegrade continence enema (MACE) stoma was created. Seven days after the procedure, blood sampling was performed. In group I (N = 8) no postoperative intervention was performed. In group II (N = 8), CD was started through the MACE stoma by a low osmolar PD solution. Rats of group III (N = 8) underwent the same procedure with a high osmolar PD solution. Rats of group IV (N = 8) underwent CD without nephrectomy in order to evaluate the feasibility of this technique. Mannitol and activated charcoal were also added to both PD solutions. Weekly blood sampling was performed in order to evaluate the plasma creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) level. RESULTS In rats of the control group, the respective mean ± SD creatinine level was 1.5 ± 0.04 mg/dL, 7 days after the surgical procedure, but a lower creatinine level was found in groups II and III (0.8 ± 0.02 and 0.5 ± 0.03, respectively). Despite the fact that the creatinine level was in steady low states after regular CD in group II (1 ± 0.05) and group III (0.6 ± 0.02), it remained at higher levels in the control group (1.7 ± 0.08) 2 weeks postoperatively. Rats of group I did not survive until the third postoperative week, while the creatinine level was still lower in group III than in group II (0.6 ± 0.02 vs. 1.1 ± 0.03). Similar results were obtained for the BUN level at these timepoints. The mean ± SD survival period was 11 ± 2, 20 ± 3, and 33 ± 2 days in the animals of groups I, II, and III, respectively. DISCUSSION To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study of CD establishment in a rat model. Unfortunately, the amount of protein loss, elevation of blood glucose levels, and electrolyte disturbance were not evaluated in the current study because of the limited amount of blood samples. Disturbance of these factors might be a cause of mortality in experimental groups undergoing CD while a significant decrease in BUN and creatinine levels was obtained. CONCLUSION CD with an efficient PD solution through a MACE stoma may be a valuable option when conventional methods are not available.

Abstract
Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) occurs in fibrotic diseases affecting the kidney, liver and lung, and in the peritoneum of patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis. EMT in the peritoneum is linked to peritoneal membrane dysfunction, and its establishment limits the effectiveness of peritoneal dialysis. The molecular regulation of EMT in the peritoneum is thus of interest from basic and clinical perspectives. Treatment of primary human mesothelial cells (MCs) with effluent from patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis induced a genuine EMT, characterized by downregulated E-cadherin and cytokeratin expression, cell scattering, and spindle-like morphology. This EMT was replicated by co-stimulation with transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1 and interleukin (IL)-1beta. Retroviral overexpression of a mutant inhibitor of kappaB (IkappaB) demonstrated that NF-kappaB activation is required for E-cadherin and cytokeratin downregulation during EMT. Pre-treatment with the MAP kinase kinase (MEK)-1/2 inhibitor U0126 showed that cytokine-triggered NF-kappaB nuclear translocation and transcriptional activity are mediated by activation of extracellular regulated kinase (ERK). Cytokine-mediated induction of mRNA expression of the transcription factor Snail1, a repressor of E-cadherin expression and a potent inducer of EMT, was prevented by blockade of ERK or NF-kappaB. Finally, blockade of ERK/NF-kappaB signaling in ex vivo MCs that were cultured from peritoneal dialysis effluents reverted cells to an epithelioid morphology, upregulated E-cadherin and cytokeratin expression, and downregulated Snail1 expression. Modulation of the ERK/NF-kappaB/Snail1 pathway may provide a means of counteracting the progressive structural and functional deterioration of the peritoneal membrane during peritoneal dialysis.

Abstract
The authors developed a computer-aided diagnosis system that includes a simple clinical test for the chronic renal disease patient who needs an integrated approach that combines both peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis (PD-HD therapy). In this case study, the system simulated and estimated the dialysis outcome, the ultrafiltration volume and nutritional analysis by employing a pharmacokinetic model, and assessed the peritoneal permeable enhancement that can be a grave complication with peritoneal dialysis. This system requires only a minimum amount of nursing time and may be able to predict the optimal treatment schedule for PD-HD therapy and provide therapeutic monitoring in long-term peritoneal dialysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to their superior biocompatibility, pH-neutral solutions are beginning to replace acidic lactate-buffered peritoneal dialysis (PD) fluids. We hypothesized that pH-neutral and acidic solutions might differentially affect peritoneal transport in the early dwell phase, due to differences in ionic shifts and initial peritoneal vasodilation. Such differences may become clinically relevant in patients with frequent short cycles on automated PD (APD). METHODS Twenty-five children were treated with a lactate-buffered (35 mmol/L, pH 5.5) or a bicarbonate-buffered PD solution (34 mmol/L, pH 7.4) in randomized order on two sequential days. Each day a four-hour Standardized Permeability Analysis (SPA) was performed, followed by overnight APD (7 cycles, fill volume 1000 mL/m2, dwell time 75 min). Functional peritoneal surface area was dynamically assessed using the three-pore model. RESULTS While intraperitoneal pH was constant at 7.41 +/- 0.03 throughout the SPA with bicarbonate fluid, the dialysate remained acidic for more than one hour with lactate solution (pH 7.12 +/- 0.08 at 1 h). Total pore area was 60% higher during the first 30 minutes of the dwell than under steady-state conditions, without a difference between acidic and pH-neutral fluid. Net base gain, intraperitoneal volume kinetics, glucose absorption, ultrafiltration rate, effective lymphatic absorption and the transport of urea, potassium, beta2-microglobulin and albumin were similar with both fluids. However, phosphate and creatinine elimination were 10% lower with bicarbonate PD fluid, resulting in corresponding significant decreases in the 24-hour clearances of these solutes. CONCLUSION The peritoneal surface area is not measurably influenced by pH-neutral PD fluid. Creatinine and phosphate elimination appears to be slightly reduced with bicarbonate fluid; this observation awaits clarification in extended therapeutical trials.

Abstract
Long-term peritoneal dialysis is limited by physiologic changes in the peritoneum that lead to ultrafiltration failure. To determine the role of profibrotic cytokines in the alteration of peritoneal transport, a rodent model of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta)-mediated peritoneal fibrosis was established. An adenoviral vector driving the active form of TGF-beta1 (AdTGFbeta1) was administered intraperitoneally, and peritoneal structure and function were evaluated for 28 d after infection. Seven days after AdTGFbeta1 infection, thickening of the peritoneum, with cellular proliferation and increased vascularization, was noted. By day 28, there was persistent thickening and extensive collagen deposition. The mesenteric collagen content was significantly elevated, compared with control adenovirus-treated animals, 21 d after infection (2.9 versus 1.8 mg hydroxyproline/g tissue, P = 0.006). Blood vessel density, as measured using factor VIII immunohistochemical analyses, was significantly increased from day 4 to day 21 but decreased by day 28. Animals infected with AdTGFbeta1 demonstrated increased transport of solutes and decreased net ultrafiltration, which was maximal on day 7 and returned to baseline levels by day 28. It was demonstrated in vitro and in vivo that TGF-beta1 induced production of vascular endothelial growth factor. Overexpression of TGF-beta1 after adenovirus-mediated gene transfer causes peritoneal fibrosis, neoangiogenesis, and increased peritoneal membrane solute transport. This model should allow further delineation of the relative contributions of profibrotic and angiogenic cytokines to changes in peritoneal function and may lead to potential new interventions for peritoneal membrane failure.

Abstract
Peritoneal solute transport increases with time on treatment in a proportion of peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients, contributing to ultrafiltration failure. Continuous exposure of the peritoneum to hypertonic glucose solutions results in morphologic damage that may have a causative role in changes in peritoneal function. The purpose of this analysis was to establish whether increased exposure to glucose preceded changes in solute transport in a selected group of long-term PD patients. Peritoneal solute transport, residual renal function, peritonitis rate, and peritoneal exposure to glucose were recorded prospectively in a cohort of 303 patients at a single dialysis center. A subgroup of individuals, treated continuously for 5 yr, were identified and defined retrospectively as having either stable or increasing transport status. Of the 22 patients who were treated continuously for 5 yr, 13 had stable solute transport (solute transport at start, 0.67 [+/-0.1]; at 5 yr, 0.67 [+/-0.1]), whereas 9 had a sustained increase (solute transport at start, 0.56 [+/-0.08]; at 5 yr, 0.77 [+/-0.09]). Compared with the stable patients, those with increasing transport had earlier loss in residual renal function and were exposed to significantly more hypertonic glucose during the first 2 yr of treatment that preceded the increase in solute transport. This was associated with greater achieved ultrafiltration compensating for the reduced urinary volumes in these patients. Further increases in glucose exposure were observed as solute transport continued to rise. Peritonitis, including severity of infection and causative organism, was similar in both groups. In this selected group of long-term survivors on PD, an increase in solute transport with time was preceded by increased peritoneal exposure to hypertonic glucose. This is supportive evidence that hypertonic glucose may play a causative role in alterations in peritoneal membrane function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glucose degradation products (GDPs) are cytotoxic in vitro and potentially toxic in vivo during peritoneal dialysis (PD). We are presenting the results of a two-year randomized clinical trial of a new PD fluid, produced in a two-compartment bag and designed to minimize heat-induced glucose degradation while producing a near neutral pH. The effects of the new fluid over two years of treatment on membrane transport characteristics, ultrafiltration (UF) capacity, and effluent markers of peritoneal membrane integrity were investigated and compared with those obtained during treatment with a standard solution. DESIGN A two-group parallel design with 80 continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patients was used. The patients were randomly assigned to either the new fluid (N = 40) or to a conventional one (N = 40), and were stratified with respect to age, diabetes, and time on PD. Peritoneal transport characteristics were assessed by the Personal Dialysis Capacity (PDCtrade mark) test at 1, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months after inclusion and by weighing the overnight bag daily. Infusion pain and handling were evaluated using a questionnaire. Peritoneal mesothelial and interstitial integrity were evaluated by analyzing overnight effluent dialysate concentrations of CA 125, hyaluronan (HA), procollagen-1-C-terminal peptide (PICP), and procollagen-3-N-terminal peptide (PIIINP) at 1, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months. RESULTS The handling of the new two-compartment bag was considered easy, and there were no indications of increased discomfort with the new system. Furthermore, no changes in peritoneal fluid or solute transport characteristics were observed during the study period for either fluid, and neither were there any differences with regard to peritonitis incidence. However, significantly higher dialysate CA 125 (73 +/- 41 vs. 25 +/- 18 U/mL), PICP (387 +/- 163 vs. 244 +/- 81 ng/mL), and PIIINP (50 +/- 24 vs. 29 +/- 13 ng/mL) and significantly lower concentrations of HA (395 +/- 185 vs. 530 +/- 298 ng/mL) were observed in the overnight effluent during treatment with the new fluid. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that the new fluid with a higher pH and less GDPs is safe and easy to use and has no negative effects on either the frequency of peritonitis or peritoneal transport characteristics as compared with conventional ones. Our results indicate that the new solution causes less mesothelial and interstitial damage than conventional ones; that is, it may be considered more biocompatible than a number of conventional PD solutions currently in use.
