Slower transport type and decreased albuminuria in animals with BF treatment. In the peritoneal equilibration test, the peritoneal transport types of the animals differed. Uremic animals provided a faster transport type compared with Sham rats. Uremic animals with PD treatment showed the fastest transport status, whereas animals treated with PD and BF were comparable to control-injection animals (A). To obtain chronic kidney damage, albuminuria was assessed. Uremic animals treated with BF revealed less albuminuria than untreated uremic rats. Treatment with BF reduced albuminuria in uremic rats with PD treatment compared with SNX rats treated with PD only (B). All results represent mean ± SEM of 12 animals per group. ***P < 0.001 versus Sham, **P < 0.01 versus Sham, §P < 0.05 versus SNX, $P < 0.05 versus SNX intraperitoneal, #P < 0.05 versus SNX+PD.
