Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To study the genetic effects of various inflammatory cytokines on peritoneal solute transport rate (PSTR) in incident Korean peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. DESIGN: Case-control association study. METHODS: 132 patients with baseline peritoneal equilibration test within 1-3 months after starting PD were enrolled. We analyzed the influence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of interleukin-6...
