Neutrophil-derived miR-223 as local biomarker of bacterial peritonitis

Abstract Infection remains a major cause of morbidity, mortality and technique failure in patients with end stage kidney failure who receive peritoneal dialysis (PD). Recent research suggests that the early inflammatory response at the site of infection carries diagnostically relevant information, s...
