Multiple-choice examination.Digital Access ClinicalKey 2019 - ArticleBerger M, James GP, Davis ER, Jasper PM, Brouhard BH, Travis LB, Cunningham RJ.Clin Nephrol. 1978 Jan;9(1):19-24.Hemodialysis and hyperlipidemia have been associated in both adults and children. The present study indicates hyperlipidemia in uremic children treated with peritoneal dialysis and implies that the cardiovascular risk felt to exist with hemodialysis also exists in peritoneal dialysis. Thirty-eight children with chronic renal insufficiency or end-stage renal disease were followed serially under varying conditions of medical management, hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, and transplantation. Serum triglyceride concentrations in patients on peritoneal dialysis were not significantly different from those in patients on hemodialysis, but both were significantly higher (P less than 0.01) than concentrations in patients on medical management and transplantation.
