Abstract

The improved patient and technique survival on chronic PD makes assessment of the peritoneum as a dialysis membrane more important than previously. The focus of the present review is on the possible role of genetics, longitudinal assessment of some biomarkers in peritoneal cells and effluent, and the time course of the various pathways of fluid small solute and protein transport that can be assessed in peritoneal dialysis patients.
