Hyperosmolality-Mediated Peritoneal Microvascular Vasodilation Is Linked to Aquaporin Function

Zakaria, El Rasheid; Al-Thani, Asma; Fawzi, Ashraf; Fituri, Omar ( 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 Mechanisms of Peritoneal Dialysis–Induced Microvascular Vasodilation

Zakaria, El Rasheid; Al-Thani, Asma; Fawzi, Ashraf; Fituri, Omar ( 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 ...
