Independent risk factors of rapid glomerular filtration rate decline in patients with type 2 diabetes with preserved kidney function and normoalbuminuria: A multicenter cohort study. [PDF]
We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients with type 2 diabetes with preserved renal function and normoalbuminuria, with and without rapid decliners, to investigate the involvement of the baseline hemoglobin level as a potential predictor of rapid renal function decline.

Haemodynamic, hormonal and renal actions of osteocrin in normal sheep. [PDF]
Abstract Osteocrin (OSTN) is an endogenous protein sharing structural similarities with the natriuretic peptides [NPs; atrial (ANP), B‐type (BNP) and C‐type (CNP) NP], which are hormones known for their crucial role in maintaining pressure/volume homeostasis. Osteocrin competes with the NPs for binding to the receptor involved in their clearance (NPR‐C)

Serum gastrin concentrations in dogs with primary hyperparathyroidism. [PDF]
Abstract Background Hypercalcemia has been associated with hypergastrinemia in humans. Hypergastrinemia could be responsible for gastrointestinal (GI) signs in dogs with primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). Hypothesis/Objectives (a) Determine whether hypergastrinemia occurs in dogs with PHPT, (b) assess for potential correlations among ionized calcium ...

Effects of the sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor dapagliflozin on estimated plasma volume in patients with type 2 diabetes. [PDF]
Abstract Aims To compare the effects of the sodium‐glucose co‐transporter‐2 (SGLT2) inhibitor dapagliflozin on estimated (ePV) and measured plasma volume (mPV) and to characterize the effects of dapagliflozin on ePV in a broad population of patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract Adopting an integrative approach, by combining studies of cardiovascular function with those at cellular and molecular levels, this study investigated whether maternal treatment with melatonin protects against programmed cardiovascular dysfunction in the offspring using an established rodent model of hypoxic pregnancy. Wistar rats were divided

When hemolysis masks polycythemia vera. [PDF]
Although uncommon, clinicians should be aware that polycythemia vera may be masked due to hemolysis. The report of such associations could help them in clinical practice to establish an early and accurate diagnosis that may be challenging in atypical presentations of myeloproliferative neoplasms.

Abstract Sodium‐glucose cotransporter‐2 inhibitors (SGLT2) are drugs that have been reported to have several effects through the regulation of plasma volume, for example, antihypertensive effects. This study aimed to clarify the impact of long‐term administration and subsequent discontinuation of the SGLT2 inhibitor tofogliflozin on estimated plasma ...
