Toxicokinetics of Protein-bound Uremic Toxins in ESRD Patients
Protein-bound uremic toxins (PBUTs) are important uremic toxins, represented by indoxyl sulfate (IS), derived from the fermentation of dietary proteins by gut bacteria. The purpose of this study was to study the changes of IS in maintenance hemodialysis patients, and to construct a metabolic kinetics model of IS clearance. The model was then used to estimate the clearance rate of indoxyl sulfate by hemoperage, and to verify the application value of the model. This study intends to collect a series of serum, dialysate and urine samples from maintenance hemodialysis patients receiving high-throughput dialysis or hemodialysis filtration, so as to clarify the variation rule of IS during various blood purification treatments. Furthermore, a three-compartment model of dialysis IS metabolism kinetics was constructed according to the IS clearance of dialysis and residual kidney, and the above model was verified internally and externally. Finally, the model's fit and predictive value were validated in a group of MHD patients treated with HP without residual kidney.
• Patients with maintenance hemodialysis were less than 85 years old and more than 18 years old, both male and female;
• Regular hemodialysis for more than 3 months, using arteriovenous fistula hemodialysis;
• Receiving high-throughput dialysis, HDF, and HP according to the conventional treatment regimen;
• Adequate dialysis (Kt/V\>1.2 within one month);
• Keep your diet steady. Generally in good condition, have self-awareness, have a good understanding of their own illness and physical condition, and can communicate well with others;
• Understand and sign the informed consent
