This episode discusses a study that measured objective nocturnal sleep duration of patients on hemodialysis and characterized natural and dialysis-imposed patterns of sleep duration using a commercially available wearable activity tracker.
Data from nearly 16,000 French peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients were analyzed in this large observational study, to understand factors influencing transfers to hemodialysis for different reasons.
This episode focuses on a study that looks at how confidence in managing daily challenges (self-efficacy) and having support from others (social support), affect the overall well-being of people on hemodialysis and hemodiafiltration.
This study examined the living kidney donor evaluation process to determine the point sex imbalance arises. There were 1,861 self-referrals, resulting in 146 approvals and 125 donations . Female overrepresentation stems from a higher self-referral rate.
This Podcast discusses a study on the effect of fluid overload-related hospitalizations on survival in PD patients. The study found that patients hospitalized due to fluid overload within the first 12 months of starting PD had higher mortality rates.
This episode highlights a study on the time-varying effect of assistance on risk of PD cessation using data from the RDPLF of 15675 incident PD patients. Patients treated with assisted PD had a greater risk of death and a lower risk of transfer to HD.
In an analysis of patients undergoing kidney transplantation, depression and health related quality of life were measured at 3-months and 1-year post-transplantation. Depression and HRQOL improve with KT.
Utilizing a multinational collaborative network, a study provided the first systematic description of
urinary vacuolar casts in patients with acute or chronic kidney disease.
In a Kidney360 article of 31 patients with native kidney biopsy proven oxalate nephropathy, 10 of 31 patients had multifactorial etiologies of oxalate nephropathy. 10 of 31 had a single etiology and 11 had risk factors but the etiology was unknown.
A new Kidney360 study describes the Duke Center for Personalized Health Care's experience adapting and pilot testing a group visit approach using existing telehealth infrastructure.
A new study examines the health utility of patients at 60 days after dialysis-requiring acute kidney injury and identifies 3 subgroups of AKI survivors with distinct health utility profiles.
A study investigated the impact of the surgical closure of functioning arteriovenous fistula on blood pressure levels, as well as on the cardiac and renal functions.
Opportunities exist for clinical decision support (CDS) to help transplant nephrologists counsel living donors receiving APOL1 genetic test results. A new Kidney360 study provides insights from transplant nephrologists on how this CDS should be developed.
Survey findings demonstrate that the adjustments made by the dialysis units during the peak of the pandemic were effective in maneuvering the challenges faced by our patients during the COVID-19 pandemic while providing high-quality medical care.
This Podcast discusses a new Kidney360 study that examines sociodemographic risk factors for food insecurity and housing instability among people on hemodialysis and their association with substance use.
Given the lack of a transplant-specific curriculum within the ACGME guidelines, the Transplant Interest Group (under the American Society of Pediatric Nephrology) has worked to create a transplant specific curriculum.
Jane S. Davis brought together four hemodialysis patients to talk about central venous catheters versus permanent accesses. The conversation took a surprising turn when the participants began discussing their own issues.
