A study in Peritoneal Dialysis International highlights the financial and environmental waste from 2.5L Icodextrin bags in Canada. With patients discarding nearly half the solution, smaller bag options could significantly reduce cost and PVC plastic waste.doi.org/10.1177/089686…

A case report in Peritoneal Dialysis International details severe hypocalcemia and prolonged heart failure in a peritoneal dialysis patient after denosumab treatment. Listen to our audio summary on managing these risks in advanced CKD. doi.org/10.1177/089686…

Does peritoneal dialysis fluid paradoxically trigger water retention? A new study in humans and transgenic rats shows hyperosmolar PD fluids stimulate arginine vasopressin (AVP) production, potentially opposing fluid removal. #PeritonealDialysis doi.org/10.1177/089686…

A study in Peritoneal Dialysis International finds that chronic exposure to ambient air pollution, including PM2.5, is independently associated with an increased risk of PD-related peritonitis and transfer to hemodialysis. doi.org/10.1177/089686… #Nephrology

New research maps the environmental footprint of peritoneal dialysis (PD) pathways. Incremental PD significantly reduces carbon emissions. Patient and staff travel to clinics are major contributors to emissions. doi.org/10.1177/089686…

Culture-negative peritonitis affects up to 40% of peritoneal dialysis cases. A new review explores how metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) can identify atypical pathogens and reduce diagnostic time to ~25 hours. #Peritonitis doi.org/10.1177/089686…

We at @PDI_Journal fully support initiatives like this one, encouraging and empowering nurses (esp. #PeritonealDialysis ones) to get involved in research that will improve patients' well-being! Thursday, June 25th 8.30 GMT Register: bit.ly/nurses-researc…

Peritoneal dialysis has a significant carbon footprint. A new review provides a practical guide for clinicians on sustainable PD, focusing on waste reduction, optimizing care, and future innovations. #PeritonealDialysis #Sustainability doi.org/10.1177/089686…

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has a lower carbon footprint than in-center HD, but its environmental impact can be improved. Learn how "leaner" nephrology and patient-centered care can promote sustainability in kidney care. #PeritonealDialysis #GreenNephrology doi.org/10.1177/089686…

Joint Journal Club (webinar) tomorrow, between @ASNKidney @ISPD1 @ispd_nac and ANNA. Tomorrow 11h00 a.m. EDT (15h00 GMT) Register for the journal club: us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

🎤 Meet Dr Yeoungjee Cho at #ISPD26! A globally recognised nephrologist, ISPD Council member, and researcher with 180+ publications. Don't miss the chance to learn from her expertise. 👉 Register: bit.ly/4qYhH3O #ISPD26

📍 At #ERA26 in Glasgow? Make sure to visit the #ISPD booth (Assoc7) and meet Elena. Bonus: if you're lucky, she'll still have a few printed copies of our #PDI guidelines waiting for you! 📚
