The Middle Molecule Hypothesis Revisited. Should Short, Three Times Weekly Hemodialysis Be Abandoned?.

Hemodialysis international. International Symposium on Home Hemodialysis

Charra B, Scribner BH, Twardowski ZJ, Bergström J.
PMID: 28455930
Hemodial Int. 2002 Jan;6(1):9-14. doi: 10.1111/hdi.2002.6.1.9.

When the middle molecule (MM) hypothesis was formulated in 1975, no MM had yet been identified as a uremic toxin. Meanwhile, the birth and implementation of the Kt/V

A contemporary pathology of science.

Annali dell'Istituto superiore di sanita

Modonesi C, Farina L, Licata I, Germano R, Zbilut JP, Giuliani A.
PMID: 18946158
Ann Ist Super Sanita. 2008;44(3):211-3.

A contemporary pathology of science is outlined. This pathology suggests that "previous knowledge" drastically limits innovative thinking in science. In very raw "Bayesian" terms it is affirmed that a too rich and flexible a priori knowledge is detrimental to...

Will systems biology offer new holistic paradigms to life sciences?.

Systems and synthetic biology

Conti F, Valerio MC, Zbilut JP, Giuliani A.
PMID: 19003440
Syst Synth Biol. 2007 Dec;1(4):161-5. doi: 10.1007/s11693-008-9016-1. Epub 2008 May 30.

A biological system, like any complex system, blends stochastic and deterministic features, displaying properties of both. In a certain sense, this blend is exactly what we perceive as the "essence of complexity" given we tend to consider as non-complex...

Fallacies of high-speed hemodialysis.

Hemodialysis international. International Symposium on Home Hemodialysis

Twardowski ZJ.
PMID: 19379349
Hemodial Int. 2003 Apr 01;7(2):109-17. doi: 10.1046/j.1492-7535.2003.00032.x.

Chronic hemodialysis sessions, as developed in Seattle in the 1960s, were long procedures with minimal intra- and interdialytic symptoms. Financial and logistical pressures related to the overwhelming number of patients requiring hemodialysis created an incentive to shorten dialysis time...

Blood access in daily hemodialysis.

Hemodialysis international. International Symposium on Home Hemodialysis

Twardowski ZJ.
PMID: 19379404
Hemodial Int. 2004 Jan 01;8(1):70-6. doi: 10.1111/j.1492-7535.2004.00077.x.

Frequent dialyses are sometimes perceived as increasing the risk of blood access malfunction and decreased longevity. This review of the literature, however, indicates that the failure rates and overall fistula survival appear to be better with more frequent dialyses...

Prevention and Treatment of Thrombosis Associated With Long-Term Hemodialysis Catheters.

Home hemodialysis international. International Symposium on Daily Home Hemodialysis

Twardowski ZJ.
PMID: 28466518
Home Hemodial Int (1997). 1998 Jan;2(1):60-66. doi: 10.1111/hdi.1998.2.1.60.

Soft, cuffed, central vein hemodialysis catheters are used in about 20% of chronic hemodialysis patients in the United States, because long-term arteriovenous blood access cannot be maintained in an aging patient population with a large proportion of diabetics. The...

Outpatient High-Dose Urokinase Infusion Improves Dialysis Catheter Longevity: A Prospective Observational Study.

Hemodialysis international. International Symposium on Home Hemodialysis

Saran R, Venkataraman V, Leavey SF, Usovsky R, Usha K, Twardowski ZJ.
PMID: 28455919
Hemodial Int. 2000 Jan;4(1):32-36. doi: 10.1111/hdi.2000.4.1.32.

Catheter thrombosis is a major limiting factor affecting catheter survival in hemodialysis (HD). A previous retrospective study highlighted the utility of outpatient intradialytic high-dose urokinase (HDU) infusion in the treatment of HD catheter thrombosis. The present study was designed...

The air-bubble method of locking central-vein catheters with acidified, concentrated sodium chloride as a bactericidal agent: in vitro studies.

Hemodialysis international. International Symposium on Home Hemodialysis

Moore HL, Twardowski ZJ.
PMID: 19379381
Hemodial Int. 2003 Oct 01;7(4):311-9. doi: 10.1046/j.1492-7535.2003.00055.x.

BACKGROUND: Soft, cuffed indwelling catheters are used for hemodialysis access and intravenous infusions. The majority of these catheters are removed as a result of infection caused by contamination of the catheter hub during the connection/disconnection procedures. To prevent clot...

Air-bubble method of locking central-vein catheters for prevention of hub colonization: a pilot study.

Hemodialysis international. International Symposium on Home Hemodialysis

Twardowski ZJ, Reams G, Prowant BF, Moore HL, Van Stone JC.
PMID: 19379382
Hemodial Int. 2003 Oct 01;7(4):320-5. doi: 10.1046/j.1492-7535.2003.00056.x.

BACKGROUND: The major source of catheter-associated bacteremia is contamination of the catheter hub during connection-disconnection procedures. A new method of catheter locking has been developed wherein anticoagulant is injected first, followed by a 0.1-mL air bubble and 0.9 mL...
