ABSTRACT Objective Hyponatraemia is a common electrolyte disorder often driven by excess arginine vasopressin (AVP). Copeptin is a stable surrogate marker co‐secreted with AVP. It is unclear whether treatment of hyponatraemia with tolvaptan, an AVP‐V2 receptor antagonist, impacts copeptin.

The Pathogenesis of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease [PDF]
In individuals with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), renal function deteriorates as the kidneys become replaced by multitudes of fluid-filled cysts. Although the PKD genes were identified a decade ago, the pathway(s) leading from mutation to disease remain the subject of intense investigation.

ABSTRACT Background Leadless pacemakers traditionally rely on femoral venous access, which may be limited in patients with unfavorable IVC anatomy, prior interventions, or situations where preserving femoral access is preferred. Internal jugular (IJ) access offers an alternative route, but real‐world data on IJ implantation of single‐ and dual‐chamber ...

Reno-appendiceal fistula in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
We present a very rare Case of a 53-year-old female with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) who was incidentally found to have a reno-appendiceal fistula while undergoing open bilateral nephrectomy.

Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping of Kidney Stones: An Ex Vivo MRI Phantom Study
ABSTRACT Purpose To visualize and characterize the five most common kidney stone types based on their magnetic susceptibilities in MRI using QSM. Methods Three water‐based agar phantoms were constructed, containing a total of 53 ex vivo kidney stones of varying types and sizes.

Chinese clinical practice guide for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
常染色体显性多囊肾病(autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, ADPKD)是最常见的遗传性肾病,患病率为1/400~1/1000[1]。ADPKD主要致病基因有两个,PKD1和PKD2,其突变导致疾病分别约占发病人群的85%和15%[2-3]。该病为常染色体显性遗传病,子代发病机率为50%。患者多在成年后出现双侧肾脏囊肿,随年龄增长,逐渐损害肾脏结构和功能[4 ...

Broadening horizons: Pathogenesis and therapeutics of renal ciliopathies
This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms and aberrant signaling pathways in renal ciliopathies, links genetic heterogeneity to clinical phenotypes, and lays a theoretical basis for prenatal diagnosis and novel therapies. Abstract Renal ciliopathies encompass a spectrum of genetic disorders arising from structural or functional impairments of ...
