Abstract
INTRODUCTION Previous studies showed that the combination of peritoneal dialysis (PD) and once-weekly hemodialysis is associated with lower all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. This study aimed to compare the incidence of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) and infection-related mortality among those on combination therapy and those on PD alone. METHODS This prospective study on the Japanese Renal Data Registry included patients on PD from 2010 to 2014. Subjects were followed up until the end of 2015. Exposure of interest was combination therapy compared with PD alone. Patients who transitioned to combination therapy were matched with those on PD alone by propensity scores. Outcomes were EPS and infection-related mortality. Data were analyzed using Cox regression models. RESULTS Among the matched cohort, 608 and 869 patients were on combination therapy and on PD alone, respectively. Dialysate-to-plasma creatinine (D/P Cr) ratio decreased over time among those on combination therapy, while the ratio increased among those on PD alone (p = 0.01 by the mixed-effects model). During a median follow-up of 2.5 years, 33 experienced EPS and 55 died of infection. Combination therapy was associated with lower infection-related mortality (HR [95% CI]: 0.52 [0.28-0.95]) but not with EPS (HR: 1.21 [0.61-2.40]). Lower mortality was not limited to intra-abdominal infection but also observed for pulmonary infection. Sensitivity analyses considering the effects of dialysis facilities yielded similar results. CONCLUSIONS Combination therapy was associated with lower infection-related mortality. It was also associated with a decline in the D/P Cr ratio over time but not with lower incidence of EPS during the short observation period.

Tangwonglert T, Davenport A. Peritoneal sodium removal compared to glucose absorption in peritoneal dialysis patients treated by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis and automated peritoneal dialysis with and without a daytime exchange. Ther Apher Dial 2021; 25:654-662. [PMID: 33403730 DOI: 10.1111/1744-9987.13619] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2020] [Revised: 12/18/2020] [Accepted: 01/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Sodium removal in peritoneal dialysis (PD) depends on convective clearance, typically generated by a glucose gradient, but this can result in glucose absorption. We wished to determine which factors determine peritoneal sodium losses to glucose absorption (PD Na/Gluc). Peritoneal sodium losses and glucose absorption were calculated from measured 24-h collections of PD effluent, in patients attending for assessment of peritoneal membrane function. Five hundred and fifty eight patients; 317 (56.8%) males, mean age 56.1 ± 16.0 years, were studied, 281 treated by automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) with a daytime exchange (50.4%); 179 (32.1%) by APD and 98 (17.6%) by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). All patients used glucose containing dialysates, with 352 (63.1%) using icodextrin and 210 (37.6%) hypertonic (22.7 g/L glucose) dialysates. The ratio of PD Na/Gluc was 0.14 (0.02-0.29). Patients using icodextrin had a higher ratio (0.16 (0.03-0.32) versus 0.11 (-0.02-0.26), P < .001), as did those using 22.7 g/L glucose versus 13.6 g/L (0.16 (0.06-0.32) versus 0.13 (-0.01-0.19), P < .01), and CAPD versus APD (0.18 (0.05-0.36) versus 0.11 (0.0-0.27), P < .05), respectively. A multivariable model showed that 24-h ultrafiltration (odds ratio [OR] 7.6 (95% confidence interval [3.9-14.8]), P < .001 was associated with increased PD Na/Gluc, whereas APD (OR 0.19 (0.06-0.62), P < .01 and increased extracellular water to total body water (OR 0.001 [0-0.08], P = .03) were associated with lower ratios. Twenty four-hour peritoneal ultrafiltration was strongly associated with PD Na/Gluc, whereas patients treated with APD cyclers without a daytime icodextrin exchange and those with an increased extracellular water to total body water had lower peritoneal sodium losses but with greater peritoneal glucose absorption.

Abstract
Dual chamber (DC) peritoneal dialysis (PD) dialysates contain fewer glucose degradation products (GDPs), so potentially reducing advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs), which have been reported to increase inflammation and cardiovascular risk. We wished to determine whether use of DC dialysates resulted in demonstrable patient benefits. Biochemical profiles, body composition, muscle strength, and skin autofluorescence measurements of tissue AGEs (SAF) were compared in patients using DC and standard single chamber dialysates. We studied 263 prevalent PD patients from 2 units, 62.4% male, mean age 61.8 ± 16.1 years, 78 (29.7%) used DC dialysates. DC patients were younger (55.9 ± 16.4 vs. 64.2 ± 15.4 years), and more had lower Davies comorbidity score (median 1 (0-1) vs. 1 (0, 2)), slower peritoneal transport (D/P creatinine 0.67 ± 0.12 vs. 0.73 ± 0.13), greater extracellular water-to-total body water (ECW/TBW) ratio (0.46 ± 0.05 vs. 0.42 ± 0.06), all P < .001, whereas there were no differences in the duration of PD (median (IQR) 19 (8-32) vs. 14 (8-23) months), residual renal function (Kt/Vurea 0.71 ± 0.71 vs. 0.87 ± 0.82), urine volume (642 (175-1200) vs. 648 (300-1200) mL/day), hand grip strength (26.9 ± 10.5 vs. 24.9 ± 10.7 kg), C-reactive protein (4(1-10) vs. 4(2-12) mg/L), and SAF (median 3.60 (3.02, 4.40) vs. 3.50 (3.00, 4.23)) AU. In our cross-sectional observational study, we were not able to show a demonstrable advantage for using low GDP dialysates over conventional glucose dialysates, in terms of biochemical profiles, residual renal function, muscle strength, or tissue AGE deposition. More patients using low GDP dialysates were slower peritoneal transporters with higher ECW/TBW ratios.

Abstract
The majority of peritoneal dialysates use glucose to generate an osmotic gradient for the convective removal of water and Na. Although glucose can potentially be absorbed, previous studies have failed to establish whether this leads to increased fat weight gain. We measured body composition using bioimpedance in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients, electively starting PD, attending for their first assessment of peritoneal membrane function after 2-3 months, and then after 12 months. We studied 143 patients: eighty-nine (62·2 %) males, fifty-three (37·1 %) diabetics, mean age 61·3 (SD 14·9) years, with ninety (62·1 %) patients treated by automated PD cyclers with a daytime icodextrin exchange and thirty-seven (25·9 %) by continuous ambulatory PD. Median fat mass increased by 1·8 (-0·5 to 4·1) kg, whereas fat-free mass fell -1·3 (-2·9 to 1·0) kg, and the increase in fat mass was negatively associated with the fall in soft lean mass (r -0·41, P < 0·001). Increased fat mass was associated with measured peritoneal glucose absorption (r 0·69, P < 0·001), and glucose absorption was associated with the amount of 22·7 g/l glucose dialysate (OR 2·0, 95 % CI 1·5, 2·5, P < 0·001), peritoneal urea clearance (OR 9·5, 95 % CI 2·4, 37·1, P = 0·001) and male sex (OR 4·8, 95 % CI 1·5, 14·9, P = 0·008). We report an observational study in prevalent PD patients following body composition from their first assessment of PD membrane function for approximately 12 months, and despite the majority of patients prescribed icodextrin, we have demonstrated not only an association between intra-peritoneal glucose absorption and fat weight gain but also loss of fat-free mass.

Abstract
Background and aims: Glucose-containing peritoneal dialysates are used to generate an osmotic gradient for the convective removal of water and sodium. Predictive equations were developed to estimate glucose absorption without having to formally measure changes in dialysate glucose. In view of the changes in peritoneal dialysis prescriptions over time, we compared predicted and measured glucose absorption. Subjects/methods: We measured peritoneal glucose losses when peritoneal dialysis patients attended their first assessment of peritoneal membrane function, and compared this to glucose exposure and Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative, Grodstein and Bodnar predictive equations. Results: We studied 689 patients; 329 (56.9%) males, 53 (37.1%) diabetics, with mean age 57.1 ± 16.2 years, with 186 treated by automated peritoneal dialysis cyclers and 377 by automated peritoneal dialysis with a daytime icodextrin exchange and 126 by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. Using Bland -Altman analysis, all equations demonstrated systematic bias overestimating glucose absorption with increasing glucose absorption. For continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patients, the Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative formula underestimated glucose absorption (bias 188 (−39 to 437) mmol/day, as did Grodstein (bias 37.9 (−105 to 29) mmol/day, whereas mean bias for Bodnar was −29 (−130 to 180)). There was systematic overestimation for all equations for both automated peritoneal dialysis with and without a daytime exchange, with increasing bias with greater glucose absorption. Conclusion: Although formally measuring peritoneal glucose absorption is time consuming and requires patient co-operation, current predictive equations overestimate glucose absorption and do not provide accurate estimations of glucose absorption particularly for automated peritoneal dialysis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Optimal fluid balance for peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients requires both water and sodium removal. Previous studies have variously reported that continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) removes more or equivalent amounts of sodium than automated PD (APD) cyclers. We therefore wished to determine peritoneal dialysate losses with different PD treatments. METHODS Peritoneal and urinary sodium losses were measured in 24-h collections of urine and PD effluent in patients attending for their first assessment of peritoneal membrane function. We adjusted fluid and sodium losses for CAPD patients for the flush before fill technique. RESULTS We reviewed the results from 659 patients, mean age 57 ± 16 years, 56.3% male, 38.9% diabetic, 24.0% treated by CAPD, 22.5% by APD and 53.5% APD with a day-time exchange, with icodextrin prescribed to 72.8% and 22.7 g/L glucose to 31.7%. Ultrafiltration was greatest for CAPD 650 (300-1100) vs 337 (103-598) APD p < 0.001, vs 474 (171-830) mL/day for APD with a day exchange. CAPD removed most sodium 79 (33-132) vs 23 (- 2 to 51) APD p < 0.001, and 51 (9-91) for APD with a day exchange, and after adjustment for the CAPD flush before fill 57 (20-113), p < 0.001 vs APD. APD patients with a day exchanged used more hypertonic glucose dialysates [0 (0-5) vs CAPD 0 (0-1) L], p < 0.001. CONCLUSION CAPD provides greater ultrafiltration and sodium removal than APD cyclers, even after adjusting for the flush-before fill, despite greater hypertonic usage by APD cyclers. Ultrafiltration volume and sodium removal were similar between CAPD and APD with a day fill.

Abstract
Renal replacement therapy is designed to treat uremic symptoms and correct hypervolemia. We hypothesized that starting peritoneal dialysis (PD) should reduce overhydration, and we measured body composition and hydration status using bioimpedance in PD patients prior to training and then at the first assessment of peritoneal membrane function. We studied 100 consecutive patients with a planned start to PD, without peritoneal infections or mechanical catheter problems, mean age 54.7 ± 17.1 years, 57% male and 25% diabetic. Extracellular water (ECW) overhydration increased from -0.06 (-1.21 to 0.97) L to 0.96 (0.50 to 3.01) L, p < 0.001. Fat mass increased from 22.7 ± 11.1 to 23.7 ± 11.3 kg, p = 0.007). The change in ECW/total body water (TBW) was associated with age (β 0.065, p < 0.001), increasing comorbidity (β 1.107, p = 0.005), faster peritoneal protein transport (β 1.84, p < 0.04), and negatively with serum albumin (β -0.208, p < 0.001), and residual renal function (β -0.725, p = 0.026). Patients who had an increase in ECW/TBW had higher C-reactive protein (CRP) both before starting (16.8 ± 24.1 vs 7.7 ± 18.9 mg/L), and when established on PD (15.0 ± 31.8 vs 4.6 ± 5.1 mg/L), p < 0.05. Rather than a reduction in ECW hydration status, overhydration increased after starting PD. This was greater for older more comorbid patients and those with an inflammatory milieu and lower residual renal function. These factors should be considered when deciding upon initial PD prescriptions to limit ECW overhydration before information on peritoneal membrane function becomes available.

Abstract
Introduction Intradialytic hypotension remains the most common complication of routine outpatient hemodialysis treatments. There is debate as to the optimum dialysate sodium concentration, with hypotonic dialysates potentially causing intracellular swelling and hypertonic ones intracellular dehydration. Methods Multi-frequency bioimpedance was used to assess extracellular and intracellular fluid volumes in 53 adult hemodialysis patients. Dialysate sodium was checked by ion electrophoresis. Results The mean decrease in extracellular volume and intracellular volumes were 1.01 ±0.09 and 0.88 ±0.18 kg, respectively. The median dialysate to sodium gradient was −3 mmol/L (−1 to −6), with a median dialysate sodium of 136 mmol/L (136–138). There was no association between changes in body fluid composition and sodium concentrations, or gradients. The mean difference between dialysate sodium prescribed and delivered was 2.4 ±0.8 mmol/L. Conclusions In this study we were unable to demonstrate a relationship between predialysis serum sodium and the dialysate sodium prescribed and changes in extracellular or intracellular fluid volumes. However this study showed that using a negative sodium gradient, patients can be successfully ultrafiltrated without setting up intracompartmental fluid gradients. The caveat is that the prescribed dialysate to serum sodium gradient may differ from the actual gradient.

Abstract
Faster peritoneal transport status has been associated with adverse outcomes for peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Peritoneal protein clearance, through large pores, may be a surrogate marker of local inflammation. We wished to determine whether peritoneal protein transport increased with PD duration or was associated with extracellular water (ECW) expansion. We studied the relationships between 4 h Dialysate (D)/Serum (S) protein and ECW excess, using multifrequency bioelectrical impedance assessments, in 103 PD patients with up to 4 years of prospectively collected peritoneal equilibrium test (PET) results. 4 h PET D/S total protein and creatinine ratios were stable over time (K-W test, P = 0.063 and P = 0.3357, respectively). The initial PET 4 h D/S creatinine and D/S total protein correlated with ECW excess (r = 0.33, P = 0.003, and r = 0.27, P = 0.019, respectively), but thereafter there was no association. CRP and albumin did not correlate with 4 h D/S creatinine or total protein. Serial 4 h D/S total protein and 4 h D/S creatinine correlated all time points (P < 0.001). At the start of PD therapy, over-hydration (ECW excess) was observed with higher 4 h D/S creatinine and 4 h D/S total protein ratios, suggesting initial exposure to PD fluids causes faster transport. Thereafter changes in peritoneal creatinine and total protein transport mirrored each other suggesting that similar factors lead to changes in both small and large pore transport, and there was no sustained increase in larger pore transport with therapy time.

Abstract
UNLABELLED ♦ BACKGROUND Interventional trials failed to demonstrate that increasing urea clearance improved peritoneal dialysis (PD) patient survival. Hyperphosphatemia is a well-recognized predictor of cardiovascular and all-cause mortality in PD patients. Simplification of PD small solute clearance targets focuses away from larger solutes, including phosphate. In the US and UK, increasing use of automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) cyclers with shorter dwell times could also potentially reduce peritoneal phosphate removal compared to continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). ♦ METHODS Total phosphate and peritoneal phosphate clearances were measured in a prospective observational cohort of 380 adult PD patients attending a tertiary university hospital between 1996 and 2013 for routine assessment of PD adequacy. ♦ RESULTS Eighty-seven patients (22.9%) were hyperphosphatemic. Taking the mean 4-hour dialysate to plasma (D/P) ratio for phosphate, 193 (50.8%) were fast and fast-average transporters and 187 (49.2%) were slow and slow-average transporters (compared to 276 [72.6%] and 104 [27.4%], respectively, for peritoneal creatinine transporter status). Faster peritoneal phosphate transporter status was associated with over-hydration (odds ratio [OR] = 2.45 [1.43 - 4.20], p = 0.001). Whereas the 4-hour D/P creatinine and peritoneal weekly creatinine clearance did not differ between those who were hyperphosphatemic or not, the hyperphosphatemic patients had lower 4-hour D/P phosphate and lower peritoneal weekly phosphate clearance (p = 0.019, and p = 0.06 respectively). We found greater peritoneal phosphate clearance for patients choosing CAPD compared to APD, irrespective of the peritoneal phosphate transporter status. ♦ CONCLUSION Peritoneal creatinine transporter status and creatinine clearance cannot be used as surrogate markers of peritoneal phosphate transport and clearance. Hyperphosphatemia was more common in PD patients with slower peritoneal transporter status and lower peritoneal phosphate clearance. Greater peritoneal phosphate clearance was achieved with CAPD prescriptions. Slower peritoneal transporters should be advised to choose CAPD to improve serum phosphate control.

Faster peritoneal transport has been associated with an increased risk of therapy failure and patient mortality. However, faster transport can the result of many factors. Peritoneal protein clearance (PPC) has been proposed to distinguish faster peritoneal transport attributable to inflammatory conditions, as protein clearance reflects large-pore flow, which increases during inflammation. We followed a cohort of 300 peritoneal dialysis patients, and after adjustments for age and comorbidity, higher PPC was associated with increased risk of death (hazard ratio: 1.81; 95% confidence interval: 1.11 to 2.95), even after patients underwent transplantation or transferred to hemodialysis.

Abstract
AIM: To evaluate the non-invasive assessments of volume status in patients with cirrhosis.
METHODS: Echocardiography and multifrequency bioimpedance analysis measurements and short synacthen tests were made in 20 stable and 25 acutely decompensated patients with cirrhosis.
RESULTS: Both groups had similar clinical assessments, cortisol response and total body water (TBW), however the ratio of extracellular water (ECW)/TBW was significantly greater in the trunk (0.420 ± 0.004 vs 0.404 ± 0.005), and limbs (R leg 0.41 ± 0.003 vs 0.398 ± 0.003, P < 0.05, and L leg 0.412 ± 0.003 vs 0.399 ± 0.003) with decompensated cirrhosis compared to stable cirrhotics, P < 0.05). Echocardiogram derived right atrial and ventricular filling and end diastolic pressures and presence of increased left ventricular end diastolic volume and diastolic dysfunction were similar in both groups. The decompensated group had lower systemic blood pressure, mean systolic 101.8 ± 4.3 vs 122.4 ± 5.3 and diastolic 58.4 ± 4.1 mmHg vs 68.8 ± 3.1 mmHg respectively, P < 0.01, and serum albumin 30 (27-33) vs 32 (31-40.5) g/L, P < 0.01.
CONCLUSION: Decompensated cirrhotics had greater leg and truncal ECW expansion with lower serum albumin levels consistent with intravascular volume depletion and increased vascular permeability.

Extracellular volume expansion, measured by multifrequency bioimpedance, does not help preserve residual renal function in peritoneal dialysis patients. Kidney Int 2013; 85:151-7.

Abstract
Residual renal function is a major survival determinant for peritoneal dialysis patients. Hypovolemia can cause acute kidney injury and loss of residual renal function, and it has been suggested that patients receiving peritoneal dialysis should preferably be maintained hypervolemic to preserve residual renal function. Here we determined whether hydration status predicted long-term changes in residual renal function. Changes in residual renal function and extracellular water (ECW) to total body water (TBW) measured by multifrequency bioimpedance in 237 adult patients who had paired baseline and serial 12 monthly measurements were examined. Baseline hydration status (ECW/TBW) was not significantly associated with preservation of residual renal function, unlike baseline and follow-up mean arterial blood pressure. When the cohort was split into tertiles according to baseline hydration status, there was no significant correlation seen between change in hydration status and subsequent loss in residual renal function. Increased ECW/TBW in peritoneal dialysis patients was not associated with preservation of residual renal function. Similarly, increments and decrements in ECW/TBW were not associated with preservation or reduction in residual renal function. Thus, our study does not support the view that overhydration preserves residual renal function and such a policy risks the consequences of persistent hypervolemia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cardiovascular mortality remains high among peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Several small studies have suggested that PD patients are volume expanded, and as such this could be a cardiovascular risk factor. We therefore wished to investigate factors which could lead to extracellular water (ECW) expansion. METHODS Retrospective cross-sectional audit of 600 prevalent, adult PD patients attending two tertiary university PD centers, with corresponding assessments of PD adequacy, transport status, and multifrequency bioimpedance measurements of extracellular water to total body water (ECW/TBW). RESULTS 600 PD patients, median age 57.5 (46.9-67.9) years, 54% male, 31% diabetic, 47.6% Caucasoid, median PD vintage 16 (3.7-38) months, (64% prescribed icodextrin, 34% hypertonic glucose dialysates, and 74% antihypertensive medications). Mean ECW 15.1±0.2 L, ICW 20±0.2 L, ECW/TBW ratio 0.437±0.007. On multivariate analysis %ECW/TBW was associated with age (F=13.1 ß=0.045 p=0.000), number of antihypertensive medications (F=10.3 ß=0.43 p=0.001), log CRP (F=12.9 ß=1.3 p=0.000), and negatively with serum albumin (F=25 ß=-0.22 p=0.000), and residual renal function (urine volume mL F=9.96 ß=-0.001 p=0.002) (weekly Kt/Vurine F=8.82 ß=-2.05, p=0.003). CONCLUSIONS Overhydration as assessed by ECW/TBW is prevalent in adult PD patients, and is associated with loss of residual renal function, inflammation, malnutrition and hypertension - as assessed by antihypertensive medications. As this was a retrospective cross-sectional audit, whether loss of residual renal function, inflammation, and protein energy wasting lead to volume expansion remains to be determined in prospective longitudinal studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Both brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and volume overload are reported to be powerful predictors of survival for peritoneal dialysis patients. The usefulness of single BNP determinations in helping determine volume status in peritoneal dialysis patients remains controversial, so we reviewed serial BNP and multifrequency bioimpedance measurements to determine whether changes in BNP reflected changes in volume status. METHODS Prospective measurements of fluid volume by multifrequency bioimpedance and serum N-terminal pro-BNP (NTproBNP) were conducted in stable adult peritoneal dialysis outpatients attending for routine assessments of peritoneal dialysis adequacy and transport status. RESULTS A total of 189 serial measurements were made in 92 patients, and NTproBNP increased from a median of 162.5 pmol/l (interquartile range 82-385.4) to 195 pmol/l (interquartile range 101.9-348.6; p < 0.05). Changes in NTproBNP correlated with changes in extracellular water (ECW), total body water (TBW) and ECW/TBW (r = 0.38, 0.31 and 0.45, respectively; all p < 0.0001). Patients were divided into quartiles depending upon NTproBNP changes; those with the greatest fall in NTproBNP had significant falls in ECW (p < 0.001), TBW (p = 0.001) and ECW/TBW (p < 0.001) compared to the quartile with the greatest increase in NTproBNP, who also had an increase in systolic blood pressure from 133.5 ± 22.7 to 142.7 ± 28.8 mm Hg (p = 0.0078), whereas it fell in the quartile with the greatest fall in NTproBNP (143.8 ± 24.6 vs. 136.5 ± 18.7 mm Hg). CONCLUSIONS Serial measurements of NTproBNP correlated with changes in volume assessments made by multifrequency bioimpedance in peritoneal dialysis outpatients. As multifrequency bioimpedance measures total ECW, rather than effective plasma volume, serial NTproBNP determinations may prove an adjunct to the clinical assessment of volume status in peritoneal dialysis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The majority of haemodialysis (HD) patients gain weight between dialysis sessions and thereby become volume overloaded, whereas peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a more continuous technique. Cardiovascular mortality and hypertension is increased with both treatment modalities. We therefore wished to compare volume status in PD and HD to determine whether PD patients are chronically volume overloaded, as a risk factor for cardiovascular mortality. Study Design, Setting and Participants:We retrospectively audited 72 healthy HD patients and 115 healthy PD patients attending a university hospital dialysis centre for routine outpatient treatment, who had multi-frequency bioimpedance measurements of extracellular water to total body water (ECW/TBW). RESULTS The groups were well matched for age, sex, weight and ethnicity, PD patients had greater urine output [1,075 (485-1,613) vs. 42.5 (0-1,020) ml/day, p < 0.001], but there was no difference in antihypertensive prescription (63.5 vs. 76.4%), mean arterial blood pressure (post-dialysis 101.6 ± 1.5 mm Hg vs. pre-dialysis 102 ± 2.4 mm Hg), although post-dialysis arterial blood pressure was lower than in PD patients (96.4 ± 3.1 mm Hg, p < 0.05). The ratio of ECW/TBW fell after HD (pre-dialysis 0.394 ± 0.001 vs. post-dialysis 0.389 ± 0.004, p < 0.001) and was similar in the PD group to the group before HD (0.393 ± 0.001), and greater than that in the group after HD (p < 0.001). ECW/TBW was greater than the normal reference range in 30% PD patients, 28% patients before HD and 20% patients after HD. CONCLUSIONS Overhydration is common in healthy stable PD outpatients, and ECW volumes in PD patients are not dissimilar to those of pre-dialysis HD patients. The role of chronic volume overload as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease needs further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Peritoneal dialysis adequacy is typically assessed by urea clearance corrected for total body water (TBW) on the basis of anthropomorphic equations, which do not readily take into account changes in body composition, which may vary between ethnic groups. To determine whether ethnicity could affect estimates of peritoneal dialysis adequacy, we compared TBW estimated by anthropomorphic equations and that measured by multifrequency bioimpedance spectroscopy. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS We calculated TBW in 600 healthy adult peritoneal dialysis outpatient attending two tertiary university hospitals serving an inner-city multiethnic population who had TBW measured by multifrequency bioimpedance spectroscopy performed. RESULTS 600 adult peritoneal dialysis patients were studied: mean age, 56.7 ± 0.6 years; 54.2% men; 29.7% diabetic; mean body mass index, 26.1 ± 0.2; 47.3% Caucasian; 29.2% South Asian; 12.8% African/Afro-Caribbean. Total body water was calculated using several anthropomorphic equations and was higher than that calculated MEASURED BY MF-BIS for all ethnic groups, apart from African/Afro-Caribbeans, with the greatest difference between Watson calculated TBW and multifrequency bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy 12.3 ± 0.6% for the South Asians, 9.0 ± 2.6% for Far Eastern Asians, 2.8 ± 0.6% Caucasians, and -0.2 ± 1.5% for African/Afro-Caribbeans. CONCLUSIONS In this United Kingdom-based multiethnic population, body composition differed particularly for the South Asian patients compared with Caucasians and African/Afro-Caribbeans. Overestimation of TBW by anthropomorphic-based equations would lead to a lower calculation of Kt/V(urea), which may lead to changes in peritoneal dialysis prescription to achieve clinical standard targets and also affect studies examining the relationship between Kt/V and survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) has been reported to be a powerful predictor of peritoneal dialysis patient survival. However, it is unclear as to whether this is related to cardiac dysfunction or chronic volume overload. METHODS To investigate the relationship between BNP, cardiac function and fluid volume overload, we reviewed multifrequency bioimpedance, transthoracic echocardiography and serum N-terminal probrain-type natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) in 115 stable peritoneal dialysis outpatients attending for assessment of peritoneal dialysis and transport status. RESULTS In this cross-sectional study, the median NTproBNP was 251 (118-605) pmol/L. On simple univariate analysis, NTproBNP was associated with markers of residual renal function, volume overload, hypertension and hypertensive cardiac disease and inflammation [reduced serum albumin and raised C-reactive protein]. However, on multivariate logistical regression analysis, the strongest association for log NTproBNP was with the estimated right ventricular end-systolic pressure (β = 0.02, F = 11.5, P = 0.001), followed by log 24-h urine volume (β = -0.19, F = 10.7, P = 0.002), extracellular/total body water ratio (β = 13.5, F = 6.1, P = 0.017) and the number of different antihypertensive medications prescribed (β = 0.15, F = 8.7, P = 0.005). CONCLUSION In this cross-sectional study, although NTproBNP was associated with residual renal function, cardiac hypertrophy, volume overload and inflammation on simple univariate analysis, on further examination NTproBNP was predominantly affected by factors associated with volume overload, and these results require confirmation in a prospective study.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Protein energy wasting is closely related to increased morbidity and mortality in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. Simple reliable and easily available methods of determining nutritional status and recognition of short-term changes in body composition are therefore important for clinical practice. METHODS We compared whole-body and segmental composition using multifrequency bioelectrical impedance analysis (MF-BIA) and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) in 104 stable PD patients. RESULTS Assessment of whole-body composition showed that lean body mass (LBM) was highly correlated with good method agreement using DEXA as the reference test (r = 0.95, p < 0.0001; bias -0.88 kg, 95% CI -1.53 to 0.23 kg). Similarly, high correlation and good method agreement were found for fat mass (r = 0.93, p < 0.0001; bias 0.69 kg, 95% CI 0.03-1.36 kg). Segmental analysis of LBM revealed strong correlations between LBM for trunk, left and right arms and legs (r = 0.90, 0.84, 0.86, 0.89 and 0.90, respectively, p < 0.0001). Bone mineral content derived by MF-BIA overestimated that measured by DEXA (bias 0.740 kg, 95% CI 0.66-0.82 kg). CONCLUSION MF-BIA may potentially be a useful tool for determining nutritional status in PD patients and serial estimations may help recognize short-term changes in body composition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES N-terminal probrain type natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) has been proven to be a valuable biomarker for predicting cardiac events and mortality in the hemodialysis population. However recent reports have suggested that NTproBNP is a marker of volume overload rather than one of cardiac dysfunction. Therefore this study investigated the effect of fluid volume status on NTproBNP. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS Volume status was determined pre- and postdialysis in 72 stable hemodialysis outpatients by multifrequency bioimpedance, and the relationship to NTproBNP values was examined. RESULTS The mean and median NTproBNP values were 931.9 +/- 230 and 242 (90 to 688) pmol/L, respectively. On simple correlation, NTproBNP was associated with markers of volume overload and cardiac dysfunction. However, on logistical regression analysis, the strongest association was with the predialysis ratio of extracellular water/total body water (beta 26.6, F29.6, P = 0.000), followed by postdialysis mean arterial blood pressure (beta 0.14, F17.1, P = 0.000), dialysate calcium concentration (beta -1.19, F14.1, P = 0.002), and change in extracellular fluid volume with dialysis (beta 0.27, F7.4, P = 0.009) CONCLUSIONS In this study, NTproBNP was not associated with cardiac dysfunction as assessed by transthoracic echo or nuclear medicine scintigraphy but was dependent on factors associated with volume overload. However, because bioimpedance results can also be affected by malnutrition with loss of cell mass, NTproBNP may be elevated not only in patients with volume overload, but also those with malnutrition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Patients treated by peritoneal dialysis, especially those using automatic cyclers, are frequently found to be hypervolemic. To determine whether there are significant differences between the currently available modalities of peritoneal dialysis, we analyzed whether differences in transporter status and treatment modality had a discernible effect on extracellular fluid volumes as measured by multi-frequency bioimpedance. METHODS Two hundred prevalent peritoneal dialysis patients, 48% male, mean age 54.9 yr (SD+/-15.6), were studied using multi-frequency bioimpedance following a standard peritoneal equilibration test; 63 patients were treated by CAPD, 29 by APD, 96 by CCPD and 12 by OCCPD. RESULTS There were no differences in extracellular volumes, or extracellular volume adjusted for height, or as a ratio to total body water between the groups. As expected, extracellular volume adjusted for height depended upon bodyweight (r=0.412, p<0.001), sex (r=0.457, p<0.001) and systolic blood pressure (r=0.162, p=0.023), and extracellular volume to total body water related to the reciprocal of total daily peritoneal ultrafiltration losses (r=-0.0254, p=0.003) and urine output (-0.254, p=0.003). More importantly, on logistical regression analysis the ratio of extracellular fluid to total body fluid increased with falling albumin, F=21.5 p<0.001, increasing age, F=18.5 p<0.001, urine output F=6.46, p=0.014, total daily ultrafiltration, F=3.52 and protein intake p=0.003. Extracellular fluid adjusted for total body fluid was associated with CRP (males F=6.03, p=0.03, females F=4.438, p=0.04). CONCLUSION Patients were more likely to have an expanded extracellular fluid volume if they had reduced daily fluid losses, but also with biomarkers typically associated with poor nutrition and inflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is an uncommon but potentially devastating complication of peritoneal dialysis. We have observed an increased incidence in our centre over the last few years. METHODS AND PATIENTS To look at potential risk factors for developing EPS, we reviewed 39 cases diagnosed between 2000 and 2009 and compared these with a control group of 71 patients who had been treated by peritoneal dialysis for a minimum of 4 years. Both groups extensively used icodextrin, >80% of patients. RESULTS Both groups had been treated by peritoneal dialysis for a similar time: EPS median 54 months (46-87.5), compared to controls 70 (54-79.5). However, more of the EPS group were treated with peritoneal cyclers (75% vs 46%, X(2) = 6.86, P = 0.009) and prescribed more peritoneal dialysate 14.2 l/day +/- 0.7 vs 10.8 +/- 0.5, P < 0.0001. Although both groups were fast transporters, those with EPS had higher D/P creatinine ratios on peritoneal equilibration testing, 0.84 +/- 0.1 vs 0.77 +/- 0.1, P < 0.05, and lower peritoneal test ultrafiltration volumes, 193 +/- 26 ml vs 283 +/- 21 ml, P < 0.05. Discussion. The patients in the EPS group were faster transporters, with lower peritoneal equilibration and 24-h ultrafiltration volumes, and were exposed to greater volumes of peritoneal dialysates compared to peritoneal dialysis vintage controls.
