Despite a recent meta-analysis favoring straight catheters, the clinical benefits of straight versus coiled peritoneal dialysis catheters remain uncertain. We conducted a randomized controlled study to compare the complication rates associated with these 2 types of double-cuffed peritoneal dialysis catheters.
An elevated fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) level is independently associated with adverse outcomes in populations with chronic kidney disease, but it is unknown whether FGF-23 testing can improve clinical risk prediction in individuals.

Introduction: Patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS) commonly develop nephrolithiasis. However, the risk factors for nephrolithiasis in patients with SBS remain unclarified. The present study aimed to identify the risk factors for nephrolithiasis in adults with SBS. Methods: All eligible adults diagnosed with SBS and admitted to a tertiary referral center from December 2008 to 2018 were retrospectively identified from a prospectively maintained database. Patients’ demographic and clinical characteristics...
