透出液蛋白丢失与连续性非卧床腹膜透析患者营养不良-炎性反应-动脉硬化综合征的相关性

Objective To investigate the impact of peritoneal albumin leakage on malnutrition-inflammation-atherosclerosis (MIA) syndrome in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients. Methods A cross-sectional study of a cohort of 130 CAPD patients without edema or active infection was performed. In order to identify peritoneal transport characteristics in CAPD patients, a standard peritoneal equilibration test (PET) was carried out. For malnutrition and inflammation, serum albumin and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels were measured. Mean-carotid artery intima media thickness (IMT) was used to determine atherosclerosis. Residual glomerular filtration rate (rGFR) was defined as the average of 24-hour urinary urea and creatinine clearances. Results Pearson and Spearman correlation analysis showed that peritoneal albumin leakage amount was positively correlated with age, body mass index, night dwell time, blood glucose, 4 h D/P creatinine levels and hs-CRP levels (r=0.204, P<0.05 ;r=0.314, P<0.01; r=0.265, P<0.01; r=0.212, P<0.05; r=0.401, P<0.01; r=0.216, P<0.05); whereas it was negatively correlated with diastolic perssure, serum albumin levels, glucose level of dialyzate and peritoneal Kt/V (r=-0.209, P<0.05; r=-0.123, P<0.05; r=-0.271, P<0.01; r=-0.212, P<0.01). Overall, there was no correlation between peritoneal albumin leakage and IMT. Patients was significantly greater (P<0.01), and there was a positive correlation between peritoneal albumin leakage amount and IMT (r=0.650, P<0.01). Conclusions Peritoneal albumin leakage is significantly associated with peritoneal transport characteristics, malnutrition and inflammatory state in CAPD patients. High peritoneal albumin leakage amount is a risk factor for atherosclerosis in patients with rGFR less than 1 ml·min-1(1.73 m2)-1.

血清白蛋白水平对腹膜透析患者残余肾功能的影响

Objective To study the effect of serum albumin(Alb) levels on residual renal function (RRF) in peritoneal dialysis patients. Methods Fiftyfour patients accepting peritoneal dialysis were divided into two groups base- d on the serum levels of Alb,including group A (Alb≥35 g/L) and group B(Alb < 35g/L). The serum levels of Alb, creatinine, urea nitrogen, IL-6, TNFα were determined. 24 - hour urine and peritoneal dialysis fluids were remained and urea nitrogen, creatinine, RRF, and others were determined. The above mentioned marks and RRF were observed in follow- up visit. Results The proportion of diabetic nephropathy patients in group B was higher than in group A. Correlative analysis indicated that a negative correlation was found between the levels of Alb and mediators of inflammation IL - 6 and TNF - α. The de-crease in RRF is time- dependent in all selected patients. But the RRF in group B began to decline since peritoneal dialysis 6th month, there is lower compared with 1st month. After peritoneal dialysis 12th months the RRF in group A also significant declined, but the degree of declining in group B was greater. Correlative analysis indicated that the negative correlation was found between RRF and the levels of Alb, otherwise the positive correhtion was found between the RRF and mediators of inflammation IL - 6 and TNF - α. Conclusions The low levels of Alia resulted from malnutrition was one of the factors to decline RRF in per-itoneal dialysis patients. The high levels of mediators of inflammation accelerated the deterioration of the RRF.     

Phosphatidylcholine and peritoneal transport during peritoneal dialysis

Peritoneal effluent of patients on chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) contains a surface-active material (SAM) made up of phospholipids and showing phosphatidylcholine on thin-layer chromatography. This substance drastically lowers surface tension, helps to repel water and has a lubricating effect. The presence of stratified phosphatidylcholine on the peritoneum might narrow the stagnant dialysate fluid layer and situations which can alter the quantity or composition of SAM may affect peritoneal transport and also, perhaps, the formation of adherences. This led us to verify, experimentally, the presence of phospholipids in basal conditions, after CAPD and during peritonitis and to check if addition of phosphatidylcholine to dialysis liquid is able to modify water transport in patients with low ultrafiltration and peritonitis. Phospholipids in the dialysis effluent of patients who have been on CAPD for a long time are lower than observed in the first days of peritoneal dialysis. A more drastic, significant decrease in phospholipids was observed in patients with low ultrafiltration and in patients with peritonitis. Mean ultrafiltration significantly increases in patients with low ultrafiltration and in those with peritonitis during dialysis exchanges containing phosphatidylcholine (50 mg/l) indicating that the latter is able to restore normal physiological conditions.     

Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis in paediatric peritoneal dialysis patients

Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a serious complication of chronic peritoneal dialysis (CPD). In contrast to the adult population, there are few studies regarding EPS in paediatric CPD patients, and the majority of reported patients are from Japan. The aim of the present report is to define the incidence of EPS in our paediatric CPD patients and to describe the clinical and laboratory characteristics. A total of 104 paediatric patients were followed from November 1989 to November 2003 and two were diagnosed as EPS (1.9%). The dialysis periods of these patients were 45 and 53 months with 6 and 8 peritonitis episodes, respectively. Clinical signs of EPS developed 7 and 14 days after the removal of the dialysis catheter, and CPD was replaced by haemodialysis because of persistent peritonitis. One patient was well after surgical management but died 6 months later. The second patient who was treated with prednisolone remained well at 16 months. In conclusion, EPS is a rare but important complication of CPD. We recommend that all patients on CPD who develop ultrafiltration failure be evaluated radiologically for the occurrence of EPS. Management should be tailored to the individual patient.

The short peritoneal equilibration test in pediatric peritoneal dialysis

The peritoneal equilibration test (PET) is the gold standard method for defining peritoneal membrane permeability and for prescribing peritoneal dialysis (PD) therapy on an individual basis. However, it is laborious, consumes nursing time, and requires many hours to be performed. Therefore, several authors have attempted to validate a short PET protocol, with controversial results. To evaluate the concordance between the 2-h (short) and 4-h (classical) peritoneal equilibrium test, a prospective observational protocol was applied in three PD centers (Mexico, Chile, and Uruguay) between July 1, 2008 and July 31 2009. PET protocol: the night prior to the test, each patient received five exchanges, 1 h each, at the same glucose concentration as previously used. Afterwards, a 2.5% glucose dialysis solution was used for a dwell time of 4 h. Exchange fill volume was 1,100 ml/m² body surface area. The next morning, the 4-h dwell was drained, and Dianeal 2.5% was infused. Three dialysate samples at 0, 2, and 4 h were obtained. A single blood sample was obtained at 120 min. Creatinine D/P and glucose D/D₀ ratios were calculated at hours 0, 2, and 4. Patients were categorized as low, low average, high average, or high transporters according creat D/P and gluc D/D₀ results. Pearson and Kappa test were used for numerical and categorical correlations, respectively, and p?<?0.05 was considered significant. Eighty-seven PET studies were evaluated in 74 patients, 33 males, age 11.1?±?5.05 years old. A positive linear correlation of 92% between 2 and 4-h creat D/P and 80% between 2 and 4-h gluc D/D₀ (p?<?0.001) was founded. The Kappa test showed a significant concordance between creat D/P and gluc D/D₀ categories at 2 and 4 h (p?<?0.001). When analyzing cut-off-value categories, creat D/P was founded to be lower and gluc D/D₀ higher than other experiences. This multicentric prospective study strongly suggests that PET obtained at 2 h and 4 h, based on either creatinine or glucose transport, provides identical characterization of peritoneal membrane transport capacity in PD children.     

Long-term peritoneal dialysis and encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis in children

Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is the most serious complication of long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD), with a mortality rate that exceeds 30%. There have been many reports of the incidence of EPS being strongly correlated to the duration of PD. Patients on PD for longer than 5 years, and especially those receiving this treatment for more than 8 years, should undergo careful and repeated surveillance for risk factors associated with the development of EPS. The development of ultrafiltration failure, a high dialysate/plasma creatinine ratio, as determined by the peritoneal equilibration test, peritoneal calcification, a persistently elevated C-reactive protein level, and severe peritonitis in patients on PD for longer than 8 years are signals that should prompt the clinician to consider terminating PD as a possible means of preventing the development of EPS. The impact of the newer, biocompatible PD solutions on the incidence of EPS has not yet been determined.
