Dialysis filter showdown: which one spares your cells?
NCT ID NCT07265635
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two types of dialysis filters in 30 kidney patients to see which one causes less damage to white blood cells and reduces inflammation. One filter is made of a special material called PMMA that may remove more harmful substances. The goal is to understand how different filters affect the body's immune system and stress response.
What this could mean

- If successful, this could point toward better dialysis filters that reduce inflammation and cell damage in kidney patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. It is observational and does not test a new drug or cure.
