On univariate analysis, six variables [including PD duration, serum albumin, antibiotics prior to admission, peritoneal dialysate white cell count on day 5 (/μl) ≥ 100/μl, 24-h urine volume ≥ 500 ml, and type of causative organisms] were significantly associated with peritonitis cure (P < 0.05). Here, ALB is linked to peritonitis.
