Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Hemodialysis is the most common form of renal replacement therapy for end-stage renal failure worldwide, saving the lives of millions of patients. After some time of tranquility, the field now has many new issues emerging. We have new evidence of the superiority of hemodiafiltration; we have new medium cut-off membranes for clinical practice; we have new drugs for anemia and mineral and bone disease (MBD) treatment, to mention just a few hottest topics. The issue of vascular calcifications and their reversibility is an area of intense research. Vascular access also presents a permanent challenge and a possibility for improvement. This Special Issue aims to attract some of the recent research advancements in the field, with a focus on clinical studies and the application of hemodialysis techniques.
