- Use of icodextrin solution to evaluate peritoneal transport capacity(2022) PEREIRA, Lucas de J.; GUIMARAES, Erica A.; MOHRBACHER, Sarah; PEREIRA, Benedito J.; ELIAS, Rosilene M.; ABENSUR, HugoPeritoneal equilibration test (PET) is the gold standard for evaluating peritoneal transport, and measurement of the drain volume after 4-h dwell time with glucose 4.25% is a simple means of evaluating failure of ultrafiltration. The study objective was to verify if the measurement of the volume drained after 4 h dwell of icodextrin at 7.5% (ICO), has a better correlation with the parameters of PET. Patients in a peritoneal dialysis program (N = 35) underwent three procedures: PET; determination of the drain volume after a 4-h dwell with glucose 4.25%; and determination of the drain volume after a 4-h dwell with ICO. Among patients who were classified as high transporters, the ultrafiltration volume was greater after ICO use. The ICO ultrafiltration volume correlated negatively with the ratio between the 4- and 0-h dialysate glucose concentrations (D4/D0 ratio, r = -0.579; P = 0.002), correlating positively with the dialysate-to-plasma ratio for creatinine (D/PCr ratio, r = 0.474; P = 0.002). For ICO, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.867 and 0.792 for the D/PCr and D4/D0 ratios (P < 0.0001 and P = 0.004, respectively), compared with 0.738 and 0.710 for glucose 4.25% (P = 0.020 and P = 0.041, respectively). A cut-off volume of 141 mL discriminated high/high-average transporters from low/low-average transporters. Volume drained after ICO use better predicts peritoneal transport patterns than does that drained after the use of glucose 4.25%.
bookPart Tratamento dialítico da doença renal crônica(2022) PEREIRA, Benedito Jorge; SILVA, Bruno Caldin da; ABENSUR, Hugo- A randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effects of icodextrin on left ventricular mass index in peritoneal dialysis(2022) CORDEIRO, Lilian; ISHIKAWA, Walther Yoshiharu; ANDREOLI, Maria Claudia C.; CANZIANI, Maria Eugenia F.; ARAUJO, Luiza Karla R. P.; PEREIRA, Benedito J.; ABENSUR, Hugo; MOYSES, Rosa M. A.; ELIAS, Rosilene M.Left ventricular hypertrophy is a risk factor for cardiovascular mortality in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). Because icodextrin has a greater ultrafiltration power compared with glucose-based solutions for long dwell, it could improve left ventricular mass by reducing fluid overload. This was a randomized clinical trial that included patients on PD recruited from 2 teaching hospitals, in Sao Paulo-Brazil. Patients were allocated to the control glucose group (GLU) or the intervention icodextrin (ICO) group. Clinical and cardiac magnetic resonance image (MRI) parameters were evaluated at baseline and 6 months after randomization. The primary outcome was the change in left ventricular mass adjusted by surface area (Delta LVMI), measured by cardiac MRI. A total of 22 patients completed the study (GLU, N =12 and ICO, N =10). Baseline characteristics such as age, sex, underlying disease, and time on dialysis were similar in both groups. At baseline, 17 patients (77.3%) presented with left ventricular hypertrophy with no difference between groups (p= 0.748). According to the total body water (TBW)/extracellular water (ECW) ratio, 36.8% and 80% of patients from GLU and ICO groups, respectively, were considered hypervolemic (p= 0.044). During follow-up, Delta LVMI was 3.9 g/m (-10.7, 2.2) in GLU and 5.2 (- 26.8, 16.8) in ICO group (p = 0.651). Delta LVMI correlated with change in brain natriuretic peptide (r= 0.566, p =0.044), which remained significant in a multiple regression analysis. The use of the icodextrin-based solution in prevalent patients on PD compared with a glucose-based solution was not able to improve LMV. A larger randomized trial with a longer follow-up period may be needed to show changes in LVM in this patient population.
- A feasibility study of avoiding positive calcium balance and parathyroid hormone increase in patients on peritoneal dialysis(2022) PIRACIABA, Maria Clara Teixeira; CORDEIRO, Lilian; GUIMARAES, Erica Adelina; ABENSUR, Hugo; PEREIRA, Benedito Jorge; JORGETTI, Vanda; MOYSES, Rosa Maria Affonso; ELIAS, Rosilene MottaBackground: The effect of the dialysate calcium concentration (D[Ca]) on mineral and bone metabolism in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) is overlooked. D[Ca] of 1.75 mmol/L is still prescribed to many patients on PD around the world. Previous studies on the effects of reducing D[Ca] have been carried out before the incorporation of calcimimetics in clinical practice. We hypothesized that a reduction in D[Ca] is safe and without the risk of a rise in serum parathyroid hormone (PTH).Methods: In this non-randomized clinical trial, the D[Ca] was reduced from 1.75 mmol/L to 1.25 mmol/L for one year in prevalent patients on PD. Demographic, clinical, and CKD-MBD-related biomarkers were evaluated at baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months of follow-up.Results: 20 patients completed 1-year follow-up (56 +/- 16 years, 50 % male, 25 % diabetic, 55 % with baseline parathyroid hormone - PTH >300 pg/mL). Over time, there was no significant change in calcium, phosphate, total alkaline phosphatase, 25(OH)-vitamin D or PTH, although adjustments in calcitriol and sevelamer prescription were required. After 1 year, absolute and percentual change in PTH levels were 36 (-58, 139) pg/mL, and 20 % (-28, 45) respectively. The proportion of patients with PTH > 300 pg/mL did not change during the follow-up (p = 0.173).Conclusion: Knowing the risk of a positive calcium balance in patients on PD, reducing the D[Ca] concentration is a safe and valuable option, although medication adjustments are needed to detain PTH rising.
