Author notes
Competing Interests: I have read the journal's policy and the authors of this manuscript have the following
competing interests: LAP has a consultancy agreement with NephroCare, Italy; PR and
AnFe are employees of NephroCare, Italy. The other authors are employees of Fresenius
Medical Care and may hold stock in the company. The realization of therapies investigated
in this study has been performed with products mostly manufactured by Fresenius Medical
Care. This does not alter our adherence to PLOS ONE policies on sharing data and materials.
