"Acetate-free, citrate-acidified bicarbonate dialysis improves serum calcification propensity - a preliminary study";
Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 33 (2018), 11; 2043 - 2051.



English abstract:
A novel in vitro test (T50 test) assesses ex vivo serum calcification propensity and predicts mortality in chronic kidney disease and haemodialysis (HD) patients. For the latter, a time-dependent decline of T50 was shown to relate to mortality. Here we assessed whether a 3-month switch to acetate-free, citrate-acidified, standard bicarbonate HD (CiaHD) sustainably improves calcification propensity.
