Figure.. High GDPs in dialysis solutions induce vascular remodeling in omental arterioles.
Heat sterilization of dialysis fluid can cause glucose to (at least) in part deteriorate into glucose degradation products. The current work finds that patients treated with dialysis fluid that are especially high in these glucose degradation products results in increased pathological remodeling in arterioles of the omentum (peritoneal membrane that hangs from the stomach). Further, the authors find advanced glycation products (distinct biochemically from glucose degradation products) are upregulated in the abdominal fluid from the children with high GDP, The study subjects in this article are children with chronic kidney disease who were treated by peritoneal dialysis.
