Peritoneal Protein Losses in Diabetic Patients Starting Peritoneal Dialysis: Is There a Relationship with Diabetic Vascular Lesions
Advances in Peritoneal Dialysis, 10/21/09
Coronel F et al. – At the start of treatment with PD, D patients experience a greater PPL than do ND patients, and this greater loss seems to be related to the condition of high transport. The greater proteinuria seen in the D patients suggests that greater permeability of the peritoneal membrane to proteins could be a result of diabetic microvascular lesions in a pattern similar to that seen in glomerular membrane damage.
