BACKGROUND Social support is a consistent predictor of survival, as evidenced in empirical studies in patients with cancer or cardiovascular disease. In the area of renal diseases, this topic has not yet been studied extensively. This study, therefore, aimed to investigate the association between social support and survival for patients on dialysis. METHODS Between December 1998 and January 2...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Double-chamber peritoneal dialysis fluids exert less toxicity by their neutral pH and reduced glucose degradation product content. The role of the buffer compound (lactate and bicarbonate) has not been defined in humans. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS A multicenter randomized controlled trial in 37 children on automated peritoneal dialysis was performe...
Although numerous studies have tried to elucidate the best dialysis modality in end-stage renal disease patients with diabetes, results were inconsistent and varied with the baseline characteristics of patients. Furthermore, none of the previous studies on diabetic dialysis patients accounted for the impact of glycemic control. We explored whether glycemic control had modifying effect on mortal...
A 70-year-old man with diabetic nephropathy and a history of multiple admissions for congestive heart failure is approaching the need for renal replacement therapy. He is struggling with his decision regarding the optimal dialysis modality. He lives alone in rural Washington, 60 miles from the nearest dialysis unit. He is a man of modest means and cannot afford the transportation costs associat...
Though renal transplant is preferred mode of renal replacement therapy (RRT), peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an important modality of treatment for children with end stage renal disease (ESRD) but it is underutilized in Pakistan despite several advantages over haemodialysis (HD). The burden of paediatric chronic kidney disease (CKD) and ESRD is under reported, since majority of children (24-63%) p...
Characteristics and survival of young adults who started renal replacement therapy during childhood.
BACKGROUND Little is known about the group of children on renal replacement therapy (RRT) who reach the age of 18 years and are transferred from paediatric to adult nephrology services. The aim of this study was to describe patient demographics, primary renal diseases, treatment history and determine the risk factors for mortality of these young adults who started RRT in childhood. METHODS We...
Although peritoneal dialysis (PD) has been recommended for initial dialysis therapy, a larger proportion of patients with end-stage renal disease choose hemodialysis (HD) instead. Several previous studies comparing the outcomes of these two therapies, including survival rates and cardiovascular events, have not clearly demonstrated the superiority of one over the other. Our recent study indicat...
The aim of this study was to determine the causes, prognostic factors and treatment results of acute renal failure (ARF) in children admitted to the Pretoria Academic Hospital from 1986 to 2002. A retrospective chart review of 102 children (mean age 37 months) was done. Various factors were analysed including age, sex, causes of ARF, morbidity, mortality, dialysis requirement and outcome. Perit...
Residual renal function (RRF) in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) receiving renal replacement therapy is defined as the ability of native kidneys to eliminate water and uremic toxins. Preserved RRF improves survival and quality of life in adult ESRD patients treated with peritoneal dialysis. In children, RRF was shown not only to help preserve adequacy of renal replacement therapy b...
