Tuneled catheters in femoral vein: does the length makes any difference?

Revista Colombiana de Nefrología, 2018
Objective: To establish if 23 cm length, tunneled catheters, are associated to better outcomes than 19 cm ones. Patients, Materials and Methods: Patients with CKD G5D, which the only vascular access alternative was the femoral vein.

Diagnosis and treatment of canine hypoadrenocorticism [PDF]

, 2018
Canine hypoadrenocorticism (Addison’s disease), the ‘great pretender’ of internal medicine, is a disease that should be frequently considered as a differential diagnosis of several clinical presentations, albeit it is less commonly the actual cause of ...

Nanocarrier‐Based Targeting of Pattern Recognition Receptors as an Innovative Strategy for Enhancing Sepsis Therapy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent progress in nanocarriers targeting pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), including Toll‐like and NOD‐like receptors, for enhancing the treatment of bacterial sepsis and related complications. These nanomedicines deliver antibiotics and anti‐inflammatory agents while modulating immune responses.

Acute kidney injury on chronic kidney disease: From congestive heart failure to light chain deposition disease and cast nephropathy in multiple myeloma [PDF]

, 2019
Acute on chronic renal failure is a common but notably broad diagnosis. We present a 64-year-old man with a history of diastolic heart failure and chronic kidney disease, admitted for an elevated creatinine.

Chronic renal transplantation: a model for the hyperhomocysteinemia of renal insufficiency

Atherosclerosis, 2001
Renal transplant recipients (RTR) are considered representative of patients with chronic renal insufficiency (CRI) in general with respect to both reduced, progressively declining renal function, and increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). In accord with this argument, we hypothesized that total (t) plasma concentrations of the putatively ...

Biofabrication of a Filtration Barrier by Integrating Electrospun Membranes and Flow in a Glomerular Co‐Culture

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
An ex vivo glomerular filtration barrier is engineered using electrospun, biomimetic membranes seeded with human glomerular cells. The model supports fenestrated endothelium and podocyte foot processes under flow, mimics size‐selective filtration, and enables disease modeling with hiPSC‐derived podocytes, offering a powerful platform for studying ...

Photocrosslinkable Kidney Decellularized Extracellular Matrix‐Based Bioink for 3D Bioprinting

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A photocrosslinkable bioink is developed from methacrylated decellularized porcine kidney extracellular matrix to create kidney‐specific 3D constructs. This bioink supports high cell viability, promotes multicellular spheroid formation, and enables stable multilayer bioprinting with tunable mechanical properties, providing a versatile platform for ...

DNA Barcoding‐Enabled Tracking of Lipid Nanoparticles: Drug‐Loading‐Dependent Biodistribution and Tumor Microenvironment Targeting

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, lipid nanoparticles are tracked in vivo using DNA barcodes to determine how varying drug loadings affect their delivery behaviors in mice. A cost‐effective strategy is developed for simultaneously monitoring the biodistribution of a library of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs).

Sodium homeostasis in dogs with chronic renal insufficiency

Kidney International, 1982
Volume homeostasis in the fasting rate and 24-hr sodium balance are maintained in chronic renal insufficiency as a result of adaptations in the residual nephrons. This study evaluates the limitations to these adaptations and the dynamics of sodium excretion (UNaV) after an acute challenge with 100 mEq of sodium chloride in normal dogs (GFR 50 ml/min ...
