Chronic renal disease [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Lancet, 2001
Sir—We disagree with Ruggenenti and colleagues’ (May 19, p 1601) interpretation of nutritional control of renal insufficiency. A systematic review has provided evidence-based data supporting the effectiveness of reduced protein intake in delaying end-stage renal disease. Ruggenenti and colleagues do not discuss those data.

Metabolic Syndrome and Chronic Renal Disease. [PDF]

open access: yesDiseases, 2018
Background: The influence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) on kidneys is related to many complications. We aimed to assess the association between MetS and chronic renal disease defined by a poor estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and/or the presence of microalbuminuria/macroalbuminuria. Methods: 149 patients (77 males/72 females) were enrolled in

A Functional Variant rs3093023 in CCR6 Is Associated With IgA Nephropathy by Regulating Th17 Cells in a North Han Chinese Population

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
C-C chemokine receptor 6 (CCR6) is a susceptibility gene of various immune-related diseases, which was suggested to be shared with immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). In this study, we aimed to identify the functional variants.

Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis Reveals Different Immunity but Shared Renal Pathology Between IgA Nephropathy and Lupus Nephritis

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Both IgA nephropathy (IgAN) and lupus nephritis (LN) are immunity-related diseases with a complex, polygenic, and pleiotropic genetic architecture. However, the mechanism by which the genetic variants impart immunity or renal dysfunction remains to be ...

Hyperhomocysteinemia in Chronic Renal Disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 1999
Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the major cause of death both in the general population and in patients with end-stage renal failure (ESRF). CVD is responsible for about 40% of all deaths in both demographic groups.Although the proportion of people dying of cardiovascular causes is similar, the risk of CVD is far greater for ...

Effect of hydroxychloroquine in patients with IgA nephropathy with insufficient responses to immunosuppressive therapy: a retrospective case-control study

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2020
Background Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) is a well-known immunomodulator that was recently used in immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy (IgAN) due to its antiproteinuric effects.
