Comparative Effect of Contrast Media Type on the Incidence of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy
Iodine contrast media are essential to many diagnostic and therapeutic procedures that involve imaging. An important potential side effect is contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN), most commonly defined in past studies as an increase in serum creatinine ...

Radiological iodinated contrast-induced nephropathy
The use of iodinated contrast media can cause renal toxicity. Whether contrast media are exclusively responsible for kidney damage is currently the subject of debate, given that in most cases, other potential causes of the renal failure are present.

Different behaviour of the N-terminal and C-terminal fragment of proatrial natriuretic factor in plasma of healthy subjects as well as of patients with cirrhosis [PDF]
N-terminal (atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) 1-98) and C-terminal (ANF 99-126) fragments of proatrial natriuretic factor (NTA and CTA, respectively) were determined in plasma of healthy subjects adopting different postures and in patients with cirrhosis ...

ABSTRACT Background Patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) were excluded from all major trials for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). “Suicide left ventricle” occurring after TAVR is postulated to occur as a result of chronic pressure overload from fixed obstruction that is acutely relieved after the valve deployment ...

Coagulation and anticoagulation in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [PDF]
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an incurable, progressive interstitial lung disease with a prognosis that is worse than that of many cancers. Epidemiological studies have demonstrated a link between IPF and thrombotic vascular events.

Streptozotocin induced hyperglycemia in the axolotl
Abstract Background Diabetes is a group of diseases characterized by loss of β cell mass and/or function, resulting in hyperglycemia. With no established curative treatment, this has initiated research in β cell regeneration. Current animal models have either limited regenerative capacity (mice) or small size and evolutionary distance from humans ...

Deletion of diacylglycerol-responsive TRPC genes attenuates diabetic nephropathy by inhibiting activation of the TGFβ1 signaling pathway [PDF]
TRPC6 plays a critical role in proteinuric kidney diseases, and TRPC3 is involved in tubulointerstitialdamage and renal fibrosis in obstructed kidneys. Podocyte loss is a characteristic event in diabetic nephropathy(DN).
