Nephron: Clinical Practice, 10/12/09
Davenport A et al. – Diabetic and nondiabetic patients had similar PET results, 24–hour net peritoneal ultrafiltration and blood pressure control. The ratio of ECW to TBW was greater in diabetic patients, and although this could be due to a loss of intracellular water, as albumin and C–reactive protein did not differ, it suggests that diabetic peritoneal dialysis patients have an expanded extracellular volume.
