INTRODUCTION Bisphenol A (BPA) is an ubiquitous environmental toxin that is also found in dialyzers. Online hemodiafiltration (OL-HDF) more efficiently clears high molecular weight molecules, and this may improve BPA clearance. However, the BPA contents of dialysis membranes may be a source of BPA loading during OL-HDF. METHODS A prospective study assessed plasma BPA levels in OL-HDF patients...

Migration of human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) is critical for skin wound healing. The mechanism remains unclear. We report here that platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) is the major promotility factor in human serum for HDF motility on type I collagen. PDGF-BB recapitulates the full promotility activity of human serum and anti-PDGF neutralizing antibodies completely block it. Although co...

BACKGROUND We performed a systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing hemodialysis (HD), hemofiltration (HF), hemodiafiltration (HDF), and acetate-free biofiltration (AFB) in the treatment of patients with end-stage renal disease to assess their clinical effectiveness. METHODS The Cochrane CENTRAL Registry, MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, the American College of Physicians Dat...

OBJECTIVES Nocturnal haemodialysis (NHD), characterised by 8-hour sessions ≥3 times a week, is known to improve clinical parameters in the short term compared with conventional-schedule haemodialysis (HD), generally 3×3.5-4 hours a week. We studied long-term effects of NHD and used patients on conventional HD/haemodiafiltration (HDF) as controls. DESIGN Four-year prospective follow-up of pati...

Abstract Background We compared amino acid leakage among high-volume pre-dilution on-line hemodiafiltration (Pre O-HDF), hemodialysis (HD), and post-dilution (Post O-HDF). Subjects methods The subjects were 9 patients. For HD, the total dialysate flow rate was established as 500 mL/min. Pre O-HDF, it 600 mL/min, under a replacement fluid volume of 90 L. Post 10 In both procedures, duration trea...

We discuss the identification of sources detected by the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) at 6.7 and 15 11m in the Hubble Deep Field (HDF) region. We conservatively associate ISO sources with objects in existing optical and near-infrared HDF catalogues using the likelihood ratio method, confirming these results (and, in one case, clarifying them) with independent visual searches. We find 15 ISO...

The general objective assigned to the European DIALysis (EUDIAL) Working Group by the European Renal Association – European Dialysis and Transplant Association (ERA-EDTA) was to enhance the quality of dialysis therapies in Europe in the broadest possible sense. Given the increasing interest in convective therapies, the Working Group has started by focusing on hemodiafiltration (HDF) therapies. ...
