abstract：:Dual chamber (DC) peritoneal dialysis (PD) dialysates contain fewer glucose degradation products (GDPs), so potentially reducing advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs), which have been reported to increase inflammation and cardiovascular risk. We wished to determine whether use of DC dialysates resulted in demonst...

Since 1977, Yukihiko Nosé and his colleagues have challenged this misconception. Toward that end, they did show that if a 20% higher blood flow uses more than that required for a pulsatile blood pump, then ...
