#534 Pleural effusions among patients on maintenance hemodialysis patients Open
Background and Aims Pleural effusions (PE) are frequent among individuals receiving hemodialysis, and may have several etiologies, including volume overload, uremic pleuritis, and comorbidities, such as heart failure and malignancies. Data…
SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Infections among Vaccinated Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: Outcomes and Comparison to Delta Variant Open
Background: Infections with B.1.1.529 (Omicron) variants of SARS-CoV-2 became predominant worldwide since late 2021, replacing the previously dominant B.1.617.2 variant (Delta). While those variants are highly transmissible and can evade v…
Intra-Cranial Arterial Calcifications in Hemodialysis Patients Open
Background and objectives: Vascular calcification is an integral part of atherosclerosis and has been reported to be an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diSsease. Intra Cranial Arterial Calcifications (ICAC) in maintenance hemodi…
#3161 CLINICAL EFFICACY AND OPTIMAL REGIMEN OF BNT162B2 VACCINE IN CHRONIC DIALYSIS PATIENTS Open
Background and Aims Highly effective vaccines against severe acute respiratory syndrome virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have been developed and administered worldwide. Protection from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), however, is not absolute, and…
#3163 SARS-COV-2 OMICRON INFECTIONS AMONG VACCINATED MAINTENANCE HEMODIALYSIS PATIENTS: OUTCOMES AND COMPARISON TO DELTA VARIANT Open
Background and Aims Infections with the B.1.1.529 Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 became predominant worldwide in late 2021, replacing the previously dominant B.1.617.2 Delta variant. While these variants are highly transmissible and can eva…
Nephrologists’ Perspectives on Home Dialysis Utilization: A National Survey From Israel Open
In 2021, 8.4% of 6,990 patients treated with maintenance dialysis in Israel received peritoneal dialysis (PD), with home hemodialysis (HD) not widely available.1National Registry for Dialysis and Kidney Transplantation 2021. Israel Center …
Dialysis modality, humoral response to vaccine, and SARS‐CoV‐2 infection risk: Comparative prospective evaluation Open
Background COVID‐19 vaccinations have a central role in decreasing severe SARS‐CoV‐2 disease complications. This study investigated the long‐term humoral immune response to BNT162b2 vaccine among hemodialysis (HD) versus peritoneal dialysi…

Kinetics of the humoral response 1-year following vaccination with BNT162b2 SARS-CoV-2 vaccine among maintenance hemodialysis patients Open
COVID-19 • Hemodialysis • Delta variant • SARS-CoV-2 • Anti-spike antibodies Widespread vaccination has led to a reduced incidence of COVID-19.However, the combined effect of declining effectiveness over time and the emergence of highly tr…
Supplementary Material for: Humoral Response and SARS-CoV-2 Infection Risk following the Third and Fourth Doses of the BNT162b2 Vaccine in Dialysis Patients Open
The optimal SARS-CoV-2 vaccination schedule in dialysis patients and the potential need for a fourth vaccine dose are debatable. We prospectively assessed the humoral responses to three and four doses of BNT162b2 among dialysis patients. T…

Comparison of Intact PTH and Bio-Intact PTH Assays Among Non-Dialysis Dependent Chronic Kidney Disease Patients Open
Among patients with CKD stages 3 to 5 not on dialysis, the bio-intact PTH assay detected significantly lower PTH concentrations compared with intact PTH assay. Additional studies that correlate the diagnosis and management of CKD mineral a…
Effect of Vitamin D Status on Von Willebrand Factor and ADAMTS13 in Diabetic Patients on Chronic Hemodialysis Open
Von Willebrand factor (vWF) is a glycoprotein with a crucial role in the formation of platelet thrombi, and ADAMTS13 is the main enzyme responsible for vWF cleavage. Both are important in the relationship between diabetic nephropathy, hype…
Fitz-Hugh-Curtis Syndrome Consequent to a Wound Infection Following Removal of a Peritoneal Dialysis Catheter Open
Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome (FHCS) is a condition characterized by inflammation of the liver capsule (perihepatitis) and adjacent peritoneal surfaces. We report a case of FHCS developing in a peritoneal dialysis (PD) patient in whom catheter…
Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 and vitamin D: anti‐inflammatory response in diabetic kidney disease in db/db mice and in cultured endothelial cells Open
Background Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) is a gut incretin hormone that stimulates insulin secretion and may affect the inflammatory pathways involved in diabetes mellitus. Calcitriol, an active form of vitamin D, plays an important role…
