Bouliaris K., Asprodini E., Liakos P., Diamantis A., Koukoulis G., Befani C., Tzika S., Tepetes K. (2019)

Background: The use of surgical meshes in ventral hernia repair has significantly reduced hernia recurrence rates. However, when placed intraperitoneally prosthetic materials can trigger the development of peritoneal ...

A comparative analysis of ambulatory BP profile and arterial stiffness between CAPD and APD

Vaios V., Georgianos P.I., Vareta G., Dounousi E., Eleftheriadis T., Papagianni A., Zebekakis P.E., Liakopoulos V. (2022)

Prior studies have associated automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) with less effective volume and blood pressure (BP) control as compared with continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Our study aimed to compare the ...

How peritoneal dialysis transforms the peritoneum and vasculature in children with chronic kidney disease—what can we learn for future treatment?

Bartosova M., Zarogiannis S.G., Schmitt C.P., Arbeiter K., Ariceta G., Bayazit A.K., Büscher R., Caliskan S., Cerkauskiene R., Drozdz D., Fathallah-Shaykh S., Klaus G., Krmar R.T., Oh J., Peters V., Querfeld U., Ranchin B., Sallay P., Schaefer B., Taylan C., Testa S., VandeWalle J., Verrina E., Vondrak K., Warady B.A., Yap Y.C., Zaloszyc A., for the Members of the International Pediatric Peritoneal Biobank (2022)

Children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) suffer from inflammation and reactive metabolite-induced stress, which massively accelerates tissue and vascular aging. Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is the preferred dialysis mode in ...
