The Effects of Fluid Management Approaches on Renin–Angiotensin–Aldosterone System Activity and Blood Pressure Control in Patients on Dialysis
Background: Chronic fluid imbalance in maintenance hemodialysis can increase cardiovascular risk through activation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone pathway. This study compared the endocrine and hemodynamic effects of three fluid ma...

Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Access to Home‐Based Renal Replacement Therapies Among Incident End‐Stage Renal Disease Patients in the United States
Background: Racial and ethnic disparities in access to home‐based renal replacement therapies (RRT) remain a major concern in the management of end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) in the United States. Despite national efforts to expand home ...

The Intradialytic Changes in Cardiac Troponin I—A Systematic Review
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in patients receiving hemodialysis. Current guidelines define acute myocardial infarction (AMI) by troponin levels above the 99th percentile, accompanied by a ≥ 20% rise or fall. Howev...

Efficacy and Safety of Incremental Hemodialysis: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
Hemodialysis, the most commonly employed renal replacement therapy in end‐stage kidney disease, prescriptions have long been standardized as thrice‐weekly at full‐dose; however, HD implementation is not without major complications. Incre...

Efficacy of Antimicrobial Lock Solutions on Central Line‐Associated Bloodstream Infection and Catheter Survival in Hemodialysis Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
Hemodialysis (HD) catheters carry a high risk of life‐threatening bloodstream infections and failure. Antimicrobial lock solutions (ALS) are used to reduce this risk, but their overall efficacy on key outcomes like infection rates and ca...

Antimicrobial Glucose Chlorhexidine Dressings vs. Sterile Dressings in Preventing Catheter‐Related Infections During Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Background: Catheter‐related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs) are a major cause of complications in critically ill patients receiving continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), especially those with nontunneled catheters. These infectio...
