In both cases, increased peritoneal vascularity was reported consistently, although to a varying degree. Studies in uremic animals were infrequent (20%), but suggested strongly that uremia itself increased peritoneal vascularity and was associated with decreased peritoneal ultrafiltration and increased peritoneal solute transport rates. Use of chlorhexidine accelerated membrane injury but did not lead to significant new insights. Pharmacological attempts to limit increased peritoneal vascularization demonstrated that such interventions were feasible at multiple levels. However, all these studies were limited by the choice of animals and drug doses, as well as by omissions in reporting key information.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This literature review found that there was considerable variability in the design, methodology, and reporting of animal studies investigating the effects of dialysis on peritoneal membrane vascularity. A framework to enhance their reporting, in line with the current ARRIVE guidelines, is needed. Abandoning the use of chlorhexidine in future animal studies on PD should be considered.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/08968608261443579","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,24]],"date-time":"2026-04-24T14:52:50Z","timestamp":1777042370000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Problematic relevance of animal studies on peritoneal vascularization to the clinical practice of peritoneal dialysis"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"given":"Dorota","family":"Sikorska","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Poznan University of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rusan","family":"Catar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0220-3616","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hui","family":"Peng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5127-4755","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Simon J","family":"Davies","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Keele University"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1093-6027","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Janusz","family":"Witowski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Poznan University of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(98)09410-0"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1549-8719.2001.tb00178.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.semnephrol.2011.01.006"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fphys.2024.1322493"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1681\/ASN.V132470"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1525-139X.2008.00425.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ekir.2025.06.049"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCRESAHA.121.319310"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1681\/ASN.V13112787"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1515\/pp-2016-0015"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5772\/22084"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2215\/CJN.0000000000000282"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_14_2","first-page":"25","article-title":"Pathophysiological mechanisms of peritoneal fibrosis and peritoneal membrane dysfunction in peritoneal dialysis","author":"Ito Y","year":"2024","unstructured":"Ito Y, Sun T, Tawada M, et al.
