Impact of incorporating the 2C5 crystal structure into comparative models of cytochrome P450 2D6
(2002-11-01)Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) metabolizes approximately one third of the drugs in current clinical use. To gain insight into its structure and function, we have produced four different sets of comparative models of 2D6: one ... -
Impact of incremental initiation of haemodialysis on mortality: a systematic review and meta-analysis
(2023-02-28)Background Incremental haemodialysis initiation entails lower sessional duration and/or frequency than the standard 4 h thrice-weekly approach. Dialysis dose is increased as residual kidney function (RKF) declines. This ... -
Impact of incremental versus conventional initiation of haemodialysis on residual kidney function : study protocol for a multicentre feasibility randomised controlled trial
(2020-08-13)INTRODUCTION: Preserving residual kidney function (RKF) may be beneficial to patients on haemodialysis (HD) and it has been proposed that commencing dialysis incrementally rather than three times a week may preserve RKF. ... -
