Background: Prognosis of HIV-infected patients on dialysis has improved. Few studies have compared survival between and HIV-negative in the combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) era. We outcome with a matched cohort. Methods: National, multicenter, retrospective cohort study starting Spain (1999-2006). Matching criteria for were center, year dialysis, age, sex, race. Results: The population comprised 122 patients, 66 HIV-infected, patients. Median age was 41 years, all but 4 white....
Objectives: To describe the epidemiology of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) in Friuli-Venezia Giulia (FVG) region, Italy, over a 13-year period (2002–2014), estimating ALS (a) incidence, prevalence, and clinical features; (b) mortality, also comparing Udine municipality to rest FVG.Methods: We conducted retrospective population-based study. incident cases were ascertained using multiple sources validated through expert review. calculated crude standardized incidence rate (IR), point...
In Europe, the number of elderly end-stage kidney disease patients is increasing. Few those receive peritoneal dialysis (PD), as many cannot perform PD autonomously. Assisted programmes are available in most European countries, but percentage receiving assisted varies considerably. Hence, we assessed which factors associated with availability an programme at a centre level and whether this proportion home patients.An online survey was sent to healthcare professionals nephrology units. After...
Background and Objectives Although cardiovascular disease (CVD) is an important cause of morbidity mortality in patients with end-stage renal disease, non-CVD causes account for more than 50% total deaths. We previously showed that, compared men, women starting dialysis—both hemodialysis peritoneal dialysis (PD)—have higher rates. Here, we evaluate sex-specific outcomes a large cohort incident PD patients. Methods Incident de novo from the Andalusian SICATA Registry 1999 – 2010, follow-up...
High peritoneal transport has been associated with poorer outcome in dialysis (PD) patients, but not necessarily because of PD-dependent conditions. Our primary objective was to analyse the influences baseline small solute and ultrafiltration (UF) capacity on patient technique survival, after adjusting for comorbid A secondary determine whether high basal comorbidity.In this prospective observational patient/technique survival study, we followed 410 patients who started PD. At baseline,...
Objective: The present study uses the data from a large survey conducted to examine general practice of Spanish psychiatrists on use antidepressant combinations in treatment depressive disorders. Method: sample was drawn specialists and psychiatric residents practicing Spain who were respondents questionnaire distributed during an annual national psychiatry meeting sent by mail. Results: A total 1032 questionnaires collected; following data‐filtering, 831 analysed. Most (89%) believe that...
Background Ultrafiltration failure (UFF) is a serious complication of long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD). Peritoneal rest (PR) has been demonstrated as valid treatment to reverse the functional changes that occur in UFF. The effects PR on normally functioning human peritoneum are unknown but expected be neutral. Our hypothesis was positively modifies function patients with UFF, contrast absence when applied under normal conditions. Patients and Methods We studied 84 periods, comparing 35 UFF...
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an underutilized form of renal replacement therapy. Although a variety factors have been deemed responsible, timely insertion PD catheter may also be contributory factor. Furthermore, good implantation technique important to allow for effective peritoneal access function and long-term survival. Studies regarding results obtained by nephrologists in comparison with surgeons limited small single-center experiences. Thus, the objective this study was explore impact...
Introduction: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) remains underutilised and unplanned start of further diminishes the likelihood patients starting on PD, although outcomes are equal to haemodialysis (HD). Methods: A survey was sent members EuroPD regional societies presenting a case vignette 48-year-old woman not previously known nephrology department who arrives at emergency with established end-stage kidney disease (unplanned start), asking which modality would most likely be chosen their respective...
Cambodia has one of the highest prevalence rates HIV in Asia and is scaling up testing. We conducted a cross-sectional survey with 358 health care providers Phnom Penh, to assess readiness for voluntary testing counselling HIV. measured knowledge attitudes, predictors intentions take sexual history using Theory Planned Behaviour. Over 90% correctly answered questions about transmission, but their attitudes were often not positive towards people living The Behaviour constructs explained 56%...
