Am J Nephrol . 2008 Aug; 29(1):54-61. PMID: 18689979
Background/aims: Because the relation between glycemic control and clinical outcomes found in the general diabetic population has not been established in diabetic hemodialysis patients, we evaluated the association between glycemic...

Kidney Int . 2006 May; 70(1):211-7. PMID: 16723982
New technology now supports direct online measurements of total dialysis dose per treatment, Kt. An outcome-based, nonlinear method for estimating target Kt in terms of ionic clearance measurements and body...

Mishler R, Sands J, Ofsthun N, Teng M, Schon D, Lazarus J
Kidney Int . 2006 Jan; 69(2):393-8. PMID: 16408132
Dedicated outpatient vascular access centers (VAC) specializing in percutaneous interventions (angiography, thrombectomy, angioplasty and catheter placement) provide outpatient therapy that can obviate the need for hospitalization. This paper reports the...

Lowrie E, Teng M, Lacson E, Lew N, Lazarus J, Owen W
Kidney Int . 2001 Nov; 60(5):1917-29. PMID: 11703611
Background: Medical communities often develop practice guidelines recommending certain care processes intended to promote better clinical outcome among patients. Conformance with those guidelines by facilities is then monitored to evaluate...

Am J Kidney Dis . 2001 Mar; 37(4):743-9. PMID: 11273874
Despite the use of recombinant erythropoietin, anemia remains a significant problem for patients with end-stage renal disease, in part related to chronic dialysis-related blood loss and resultant iron deficiency. Because...

Szczech L, Lowrie E, Li Z, Lew N, Lazarus J, Owen Jr W
Kidney Int . 2001 Feb; 59(2):738-45. PMID: 11168957
Background: The urea reduction ratio (URR), a measure quantitating solute removal during hemodialysis, is the fractional reduction of the blood urea concentration during a single hemodialysis treatment. The URR is...

Am J Kidney Dis . 2001 Feb; 37(2):267-75. PMID: 11157366
Health care quality is assessed by profiling measures of care and/or health outcomes. However, such tools to measure outcome as standardized mortality ratio (SMR) are often used without thorough validation...
