ABSTRACT: Introduction
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and diabetes mellitus face a heightened risk of cardiovascular complications and infections, potentially exacerbated by dysregulated NETosis. Given the superior survival rates observed with hemodiafiltration (HDF) over high-flux hemodialysis (HD; HFHD) and the documented NETosis dysregulation in HD and in patients with diabetes mellitus, this study aimed to investigate the impact of dialysis modality on NETosis activity in patients on HD, stratified by diabetes status.Methods
A total of 20 patients on HD (10 with diabetes, 10 without diabetes) undergoing HDF treatment were recruited. Blood samples were collected before and after HDF. After transition to HFHD treatment, blood samples were taken again after 1 and 3 weeks
