a Causality was assessed by the World Health Organization-Uppsala Monitoring Centre criteria and the Naranjo scale and subdivided into four categories: certain/definite, probable, possible and unlikely/doubtful. b The dialysate visibly cleared up, and triglycerides level in the dialysate normalised before withdrawal of the suspected CCB because dietary management of chyloperitoneum was initiated. Abbreviation: CP, chyloperitoneum; d, day(s); F, female; M, male; mo, months; OROS, osmotic-controlled release oral delivery system; PD, peritoneal dialysis; TGs, triglycerides; wk, weeks; y, years.
