Lack of relation between serum parathyroid hormone levels and erythrocyte osmotic fragility in pediatric patients on peritoneal dialysis.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Few studies mention how to objectively adjust peritoneal dialysis (PD) dwell volume for adult continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients. We proposed a reference equation composed of parameters from the peritoneal equilibrium test (PET) for adjusting daily dialysate dwell volume to obtain more...
