Glycine improves peritoneal vasoreactivity to dialysis solutions in the elderly
( Hamad Medical Corporation , 2019 , Article)Background: Peritoneal dialysis solution (PDS) dilates peritoneal microvessels predominantly by the activation of the endothelial nitric oxide (NO) pathway. We made an incidental observation of decreased PDS-induced, ... -
Hyperosmolality-Mediated Peritoneal Microvascular Vasodilation Is Linked to Aquaporin Function
( Peritoneal dialysis publications Inc , 2014 , Article)Glucose-based peritoneal dialysis (PD) solutions dilate the parietal and visceral peritoneal microvasculature by endothelium-dependent mechanisms that primarily involve hyperosmolality. This PD-mediated dilation occurs ... -
Molecular and Peritoneal Microvascular Changes Cause Peritoneal Membrane Dysfunction by Uremia-Related Mechanisms
( Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press) , 2016 , Conference paper)Long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD) is associated with distinct peritoneal structural changes characterized by thickening of the sub-mesothelial cell layer, fibrosis and angiogenesis. These changes were assumed to be the ... -
Molecular Mechanisms of Peritoneal Dialysis–Induced Microvascular Vasodilation
( Peritoneal Dialysis Bulletin , 2014 , Article)Peritoneal dialysis (PD) solutions dilate microvessels by undefined mechanisms. This vasodilation directly affects ultrafiltration and solute exchange during a PD dwell and is thought to account for the variable mass ... -
The Effects of Class IV Hemorrhagic Hypotensive Shock and Its Resuscitation with Fluids and Adjuvant Vasopressors or Cellular Energy Replenishment on the Splanchnic Microcirculation
( Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press) , 2016 , Conference Paper)Traumatic exsanguination leading to class IV hemorrhagic shock as defined by the Committee on Trauma of the American College of Surgeons requires aggressive resuscitation with crystalloids and packed cells together with ...
