ABSTRACT: Background
The impact of protein-bound uremic toxins, specifically indoxyl sulfate (IS) on peritoneal dialysis (PD) complications remains controversial. This study aimed to explore the link between serum total IS (tIS) levels, proinflammatory cytokines in serum and peritoneal dialysis effluent (PDE), and PD technique survival.Methods
In this prospective cohort study, 84 patients were followed up for three years and analyzed. Stratification into low-tIS (< 22.6 µmol/L) and high-tIS (≥ 22.6 µmol/L) groups was based on the median serum tIS concentration. Logistic regression, Kaplan-Meier, receiving operation characteristic, and Cox regression analyses assessed associations between tIS levels, cytokine concentrations (IL-6, MCP-1, TNF-α), and PD technique failure.Results
