Mashup Score: 5The challenge of insomnia for patients on haemodialysis - 3 year(s) ago
Insomnia is common among patients on maintenance haemodialysis and may be exacerbated by the challenges of the COVID pandemic. However, data on the efficacy of insomnia interventions in this population are limited. Efforts are needed to address this important problem and increase access to insomnia interventions for patients on haemodialysis.

Mashup Score: 4
Effective treatment of kidney failure depends on reliable vascular access; however, options for chronic vascular access for haemodialysis have remained unchanged for decades. This Review evaluates the key existing challenges in establishing and maintaining vascular access and describes novel and innovative technologies under development that address these issues.

Mashup Score: 0Exercise for people living with frailty and receiving haemodialysis: a mixed-methods randomised controlled feasibility study - 4 year(s) ago
Objectives Frailty is highly prevalent in haemodialysis (HD) patients, leading to poor outcomes. This study aimed to determine whether a randomised controlled trial (RCT) of intradialytic exercise is feasible for frail HD patients, and explore how the intervention may be tailored to their needs. Design Mixed-methods feasibility. Setting and participants Prevalent adult HD patients of the…

Mashup Score: 28One step closer to alleviating uraemic pruritus - 4 year(s) ago
The KALM-1 randomized double-blind placebo-controlled phase III trial showed that intravenous difelikefalin, a selective κ-opioid receptor agonist, significantly reduces itch intensity in haemodialysis patients with uraemic pruritus. However, 49% of difelikefalin-treated patients showed no improvement. In light of the increasing number of patients with end-stage renal disease, additional…
