DOI: 10.1007/s00198-022-06366-2
Abstract: Dialysis patients have compromised bone health that increases their fracture risk due to low bone mass and deterioration in bone microarchitecture. Through meta-analyses of published studies, we conclude that dialysis patients suffer from impaired compartmental… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00392-020-01597-x
Abstract: Background Dialysis patients are at increased risk of HF. However, diagnostic utility of NT-proBNP as a biomarker is decreased in patients on dialysis. GDF-15 and cNEP are biomarkers of distinct mechanisms that may contribute to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00508-022-02011-4
Abstract: The number of dialysis patients is steadily increasing. Associated comorbidities include impaired bone and mineral metabolism, termed chronic kidney disease-mineral and bone disorder (CKD-MBD), leading to a high fracture risk, increased morbidity and mortality and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10157-017-1412-y
Abstract: BackgroundHyperkalemia is prevalent in end-stage renal disease patients, being involved in life-threatening arrhythmias. Although polystyrene sulfonate (PS) is commonly used for the treatment of hyperkalemia, direct comparison of effects between calcium and sodium PS (CPS… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10157-021-02071-2
Abstract: Recent studies have suggested that erythropoiesis-stimulating agents (ESAs) may accelerate not only angiogenesis but also vasculogenesis, beyond erythropoiesis. We conducted a 12-week prospective study in 51 dialysis patients; 13 were treated with recombinant human erythropoietin… read more here.
