Categorization of sodium sieving by 2.27% and 3.86% peritoneal equilibration tests—a comparative analysis in the clinical setting
Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 07/06/09

Gomes AM et al. - The standard 2.27% PET permits some categorization of sodium sieving in PD patients. However, the information provided by this test lacks the discriminatory capacity of the 3.86% PET, which should be considered the one for reference for this purpose. GFR keeps a consistent inverse correlation with the intensity of sodium sieving in both the 2.27% and 3.86% PET.
