Proposed pathways for the peritoneal transport of fluid and solutes based on the three pore model and experimental and clinical data. The prevailing transport routes when glucose-based solution (including the glucose absorption that occurs in long dwells) is used (left) and when icodextrin-based solutions is used (right).
