Abstract
Elevated levels of PAI-1 appearance rates are present in patients who develop EPS, pointing to progressive peritoneal fibrosis and sclerosis. The PAI-1 appearance rate has fair discriminative capacity from 3 years prior to EPS diagnosis. Therefore, effluent PAI-1 may aid in monitoring peritoneal fibrosis and serve as a biomarker for EPS.
