Longitudinal Trajectories of Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate in a European Population of Living Kidney Donors

open access: yesTransplant International
A living donor (LD) kidney transplant is the best treatment for kidney failure, but LDs safety is paramount. We sought to evaluate our LDs cohort’s longitudinal changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).

Urinary Tubular Injury Biomarkers Are Associated With ESRD and Death in the REGARDS Study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
IntroductionUrinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL) and urinary kidney injury molecule-1 (uKIM-1) are established markers of subclinical acute kidney injury.

SETDB2 Mitigates Podocyte Dysfunction in Diabetic Kidney Disease Through Epigenetic Silencing of SMAD3

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
SETDB2 epigenetically represses Smad3 transcription by increasing H3K9me3 enrichment at its promoter, thereby mitigating podocyte dysfunction in DKD. The transcription factor TCF21 binds directly to the Setdb2 promoter and enhances its expression in podocytes. Abstract Podocyte dysfunction represents both an early pathological hallmark and a key driver

Renal Function Assessment Gap in Clinical Practice: An Awkward Truth

open access: yesKidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2020
Introduction: An accurate assessment of renal function is needed in the majority of clinical settings. Unfortunately, the most used estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) formulas are affected by significant errors in comparison to gold standards ...

Elevated cystatin-C concentration is associated with progression to prediabetes: the Western New York Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
OBJECTIVE – We conducted a nested case-control investigation to examine if elevated baseline concentrations of cystatin-C predicted progression from normoglycaemia to prediabetes over 6 years of follow-up from the Western New York Health Study. RESEARCH

[Estimating glomerular filtration rate]. [PDF]

open access: yesNederlands tijdschrift voor geneeskunde
Almost all laboratories in The Netherlands report an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) whenever a value for plasma creatinine is requested. This formula is based on gender and age, besides the plasma creatinine concentration, and sometimes also a correction for race is applied.

Effectiveness of Pre‐Transplant Dual GLP‐1 Receptor Agonist and SGLT2 Inhibitor Therapy on All‐Cause Mortality in Organ Transplantation Candidates with Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes: a Target‐Trial Emulation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This target trial emulation in solid organ transplant candidates with obesity and type 2 diabetes evaluates whether pre‐transplant dual therapy with GLP‐1 receptor agonists plus SGLT2 inhibitors is associated with post‐transplant mortality and kidney graft outcomes compared with monotherapy or usual care, using multinational electronic health records ...

One lithium level >1.0 mmol/L causes an acute decline in eGFR: findings from a retrospective analysis of a monitoring database [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objectives Lithium is a mainstay of bipolar disorder treatment, however, there are still differences in opinion on the effects of lithium use on renal function.

Reprogramming M2b Macrophages via GPX1 Activation by Selenium Nanoparticles Attenuates Lupus Nephritis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
SeZM NPs selectively target M2b macrophages through mannose–MRC1 (CD206) recognition, enhance GPX1 biosynthesis, and suppress mitochondrial ROS generation, oxidative stress, and JAK–STAT signaling. This dual regulation reduces pro‐inflammatory cytokine release, limits immune cell infiltration and fibrosis, and preserves renal function, providing a ...

Postoperative Impact of Anti‐Inflammatory Drug on Cancer Recurrence in Patients With Locally Advanced Gastric Cancer After Curative Gastrectomy: A Pilot Retrospective Study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Anti‐inflammatory drugs may be effective in improving recurrence‐free survival after radical gastrectomy in patients with pStage II or III gastric cancer. ABSTRACT Background Elevated postoperative inflammation is associated with reduced recurrence‐free survival (RFS) after gastrectomy in patients with gastric cancer, independent of postoperative ...
