Evaluation of cystatin C for the detection of chronic kidney disease in cats [PDF]

, 2016
BackgroundSerum cystatin C (sCysC) and urinary cystatin C (uCysC) are potential biomarkers for early detection of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in cats. An in-depth clinical validation is required.

Bioinspired Smart Nanogels for Rapid Blue Laser‐Activated Hemostasis in Gastrointestinal Bleeding

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Waxberry‐inspired branched‐silica nanogel can swiftly stop bleeding upon blue laser endoscopy for gastrointestinal hemostasis in the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum of mini‐pigs. Abstract Gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) is a critical condition that requires rapid and effective intervention.

Prevalence of acute kidney injury in a population of hospitalized horses

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2019
Background Hospital‐acquired acute kidney injury (AKI) in humans and dogs increases morbidity and nonsurvival. Azotemia at presentation has been associated with a poor outcome in horses; however, prevalence and consequences of hospital‐acquired AKI are ...

Cystatin C versus creatinine in determining risk based on kidney function.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2013
BACKGROUND Adding the measurement of cystatin C to that of serum creatinine to determine the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) improves accuracy, but the effect on detection, staging, and risk classification of chronic kidney disease across ...

Use of Estimating Equations for Dosing Antimicrobials in Patients with Acute Kidney Injury Not Receiving Renal Replacement Therapy. [PDF]

, 2018
Acute kidney injury (AKI) can potentially lead to the accumulation of antimicrobial drugs with significant renal clearance. Drug dosing adjustments are commonly made using the Cockcroft-Gault estimate of creatinine clearance (CLcr). The Modified Jelliffe

Unexpected Creatinine Values [PDF]

Clinical Chemistry, 2016
An 88-year-old man was admitted for acute coronary syndrome associated with renal dysfunction. Ten hours after admission, the patient was found to be hypotensive and treated with intravenous dobutamine injected via a central line. Enzymatically measured creatinine concentration (Roche Diagnostics, COBAS 8000) was significantly decreased 24 h after ...

Amplified Sensitivity in SERS Detection of L1CAM With Silver Plasmonic Mesoporous Silica Capsules on an Imprinted Films

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study presents core‐shell Au‐Ag NPs and a novel molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP)‐based material targeting L1CAM. Thionine is used as a monomer to create the MIP on a carbon screen‐printed electrode. Functionalized Au‐AgNCs with Raman reporter 4‐mercaptobenzoic acid and anti‐L1CAM enable selective detection via surface‐enhanced Raman scattering ...

Sum of previous inpatient serum creatinine measurements predicts acute kidney injury in rehospitalized patients [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI), the abrupt decline in kidney function due to temporary or permanent injury, is associated with increased mortality, morbidity, length of stay, and hospital cost. Sometimes, simple interventions such as medication review or hydration can prevent AKI. There is therefore interest in estimating risk of AKI at hospitalization.

C-Reactive protein and risk of ESRD: results from the Trial to Reduce Cardiovascular Events With Aranesp Therapy (TREAT) [PDF]

, 2016
Background: To better understand a potential association of elevated C-reactive protein (CRP) level with progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD), we examined the relationship of CRP level with the development of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in ...
