Ongoing exposure to peritoneal dialysis fluid alters resident peritoneal macrophage phenotype and activation propensity
2020-03-03
Abstract excerpt
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a more continuous alternative to haemodialysis, for patients with chronic kidney disease, with considerable initial benefits for survival, patient independence and healthcare costs. However, longterm PD is associated with significant pathology, negating the positive effects over haemodialysis.
