description: This volume provides a collection of papers reviewing the latest developments associated with kidney failure and its treatment. Some of the papers address practical issues such as technical challenges to successful dialyzer reuse and problems in vascular access that may result from sheer stress modulation of gene expression in vascular endothelia. Other topics discussed include the biocompatibility of the dialysis procedure as reflected in cytokine generation, metabolic derangements in end-stage renal disease patients, peritoneal dialysis, allograft immunobiology and the role of arginine analogues in progesive failure.
