Enhancement of the transmesothelial resistance of the parietal sheep peritoneum by epinephrine in vitro: Ussing-type chamber experiments
Stefanidis, I.; Zarogiannis, S.; Hatzoglou, C.; Liakopoulos, V.; Kourti, P.; Poultsidi, A.; Mertens, P. R.; Gourgoulianis, K.; Molyvdas, P. A. (2005)The peritoneal mesothelium constitutes an ion transport barrier that is taken advantage of in peritoneal dialysis. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of epinephrine on the electrical transmesothelial ... -
Gross calcification of the small bowel in a continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patient with sclerosing peritonitis
Poultsidi, A.; Liakopoulos, V.; Eleftheriadis, T.; Zarogiannis, S.; Bouchlariotou, S.; Stefanidis, I. (2006)We present here the case of a continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patient who developed sclerosing calcifying peritonitis with gross macroscopic calcification of the small bowel, a rare and life-threatening ... -
Influence of the sodium transport inhibition by amiloride on the transmesothelial resistance of isolated visceral sheep peritoneum
Zarogiannis, S.; Kourti, P.; Hatzoglou, C.; Liakopoulos, V.; Poultsidi, A.; Gourgoulianis, K.; Molyvdas, P. A.; Stefanidis, I. (2005)The peritoneal mesothelium is a barrier to ion transport in peritoneal dialysis. In the present study, we used Ussing chamber experiments to investigate the effect of amiloride on the transmesothelial electrical resistance ... -

Low RLS prevalence and awareness in central Greece: an epidemiological survey
Hadjigeorgiou, G. M.; Stefanidis, I.; Dardiotis, E.; Aggellakis, K.; Sakkas, G. K.; Xiromerisiou, G.; Konitsiotis, S.; Paterakis, K.; Poultsidi, A.; Tsimourtou, V.; Ralli, S.; Gourgoulianis, K.; Zintzaras, E. (2007)Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder with a general population prevalence of 3-10%. A single, previous epidemiological study performed in southeast Europe reported the lowest prevalence rate amongst ... -
