A Novel Equation for Estimating Sodium Intake in Peritoneal Dialysis.

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This study aims to develop a novel equation for estimating sodium intake in anuric peritoneal dialysis patients, and then to validate its precision and accuracy.

Detailed Description
-----------------
Dietary sodium intake is closely associated with the prognosis of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Previous studies have developed an equation for estimating dietary sodium intake through 24-hour urine sodium in CKD, which are not applicable in peritoneal dialysis patients. This study aims to develop a novel equation for estimating dietary sodium intake in 20 anuric peritoneal dialysis patients, using accurately measured dietary sodium as the dependent variable and peritoneal sodium clearance and its related variables as independent variables, and then to validate the precision and accuracy of the novel equation in another 20 anuric peritoneal dialysis patients.

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| determination coefficient of the novel equation | Determination coefficient will be assessed as the square of the multiple correlation coefficient of the novel equation for estimating sodium intake in peritoneal dialysis. | July 3, 2023, to March 1, 2024 | 
| bias of the novel equation | Bias will be assessed as the median of the difference between the estimated and measured dietary sodium values. | July 3, 2023, to March 1, 2024 | 
| precision of the novel equation | Precision will be assessed as the standard deviation (SD) for the absolute value of difference between the estimated and measured dietary sodium values. | July 3, 2023, to March 1, 2024 | 
| accuracy of the novel equation | Accuracy will be assessed as the percentage of estimates that differed >20% from the measured dietary sodium values (1-P20) . | July 3, 2023, to March 1, 2024 |
