Background  Both peritoneal small solute transport and peritoneal protein clearance are closely linked to outcomes in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. However, the associated factors of these two components are not fully understood so far. This study aimed to investigate the association between a panel of systemic and peritoneal inflammatory and angiogenic factors and peritoneal solute transport properties.    Methods  Stable PD patients in PD center of Renji Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University were enrolled in present study. Serum and overnight effluent markers including angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1), angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2), sTie-2, VEGF, IL-6 and IL-10 were determined. Mass transfer area coefficient of creatinine (MTACcr) and peritoneal protein clearance (Prcl) were calculated. Multivariable linear regression was used to examine the association between these markers and MTACcr as well as Prcl.    Results  A total of 320 patients were enrolled in present study, which consisted of 166 (51.9%) males with a mean age of 56.8 ± 14.2 years and a median PD duration of 32.5 (9.0–56.3) months. Multiple regression analyses showed that BSA, history glucose exposure, dialysate IL-6 AR and dialysate Ang-1 AR were independent associated factors of MTACcr, while BSA and serum Ang-1 were independent associated factors of Prcl.    Conclusions  MTACcr representing peritoneal small-solute transport and Prcl representing peritoneal large molecular transport are associated with slightly different panels of inflammatory and angiogenic factors.
