Differences in peritoneal solute transport rates in peritoneal dialysis.

D/Ps of some molecules did not correlate with D/P creatinine. Factors other than molecular weight, such as charge and protein binding rate, are involved in peritoneal transport rates. Metabolomic analysis appears useful to analyze small molecular uremic toxins, which could accumulate in PD patients, and the status of peritoneal membrane transport for each molecule.
