Changes of parameters after initiation of PD in patients with an overall survival ≥ 2 years (n = 14).

Variables are displayed as Tukey boxplots. Differences between the variables were compared using the Wilcoxon test. * indicates statistical significance with p<0.05 and ** with p<0.01.</p

Hospitalization days for patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) before and after starting the therapy (n = 40).

Total hospitalization days, hospitalization days due to cardiovascular (CV) reasons and unplanned hospitalization days are given as medians and inter-quartile ranges (IQR). Differences between hospitalization days before and after the initiation of PD are calculated using the Wilcoxon test.</p

Hospitalization days before and after the initiation of PD (n = 40).

Variables are displayed as mean and SEM. Differences between the variables were compared using the Wilcoxon test. ** indicates statistical significance with p<0.01 and *** with p<0.001.</p

Biometric variables for patients with peritoneal dialysis with successful therapy (n = 18) or surviving ≥ 2 years (n = 14).

Variables are given as medians and inter-quartile ranges (IQR). Differences between the variables days before and after the initiation of PD are calculated using the Wilcoxon test.</p

Baseline characteristics of the peritoneal dialysis patient cohort (n = 40) and comparison of variables for the subgroups with successful treatment and 2 years survival.

Continuous variables are given as medians and inter-quartile ranges (IQR), counts are given as numbers and percentages. Variables were compared by the means of the Mann-Whitney-U test or the Chi-square test.</p

Baseline kidney related and peritoneal dialysis related parameters of the peritoneal dialysis patient cohort (n = 40) and comparison of variables for the subgroups with successful treatment and 2 years survival.

Continuous variables are given as medians and inter-quartile ranges (IQR), counts are given as numbers and percentages. Variables were compared by the means of the Mann-Whitney-U test or the Chi-square test.</p

Baseline echocardiographic parameters of the peritoneal dialysis patient cohort (n = 40) and comparison of variables for the subgroups with successful treatment and 2 years survival.

Continuous variables are given as medians and inter-quartile ranges (IQR), counts are given as numbers and percentages. Variables were compared by the means of the Mann-Whitney-U test or the Chi-square test.</p
