Reduced cystatin C-estimated GFR and increased creatinine-estimated GFR in comparison with iohexol-estimated GFR in a hyperthyroid patient: A case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2008
Introduction Estimation of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is essential for the evaluation of patients with kidney disease, and for treating patients with drugs that are eliminated from the circulation by the kidneys. Cystatin C has been shown to be

Model‐informed precision dosing of carboplatin in cancer patients by leveraging myelosuppression data from electronic health records

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims This study aimed to develop and validate a population pharmacokinetic‐pharmacodynamic (pop‐PK‐PD) model to describe carboplatin‐induced myelosuppression in cancer patients and support dose individualization. Methods Data from 580 cancer patients treated with carboplatin at Amsterdam UMC between 2019 and 2022 were used for model ...

Population pharmacokinetic modelling of amoxicillin in human breast milk—A contribution from the ConcePTION project

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Amoxicillin, a widely used β‐lactam antibiotic, requires improved pharmacokinetic characterization during breastfeeding. This study used a population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) approach to model amoxicillin concentrations in breast milk, identify variability sources and estimate infant exposure, applying worst‐case scenarios.

Cystatin C and renal function in pediatric kidney transplant recipients

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2009
In clinical practice, the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is often determined with serum creatinine. However, studies have shown cystatin C to be a better parameter for the diagnosis of impaired renal function.

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

Long‐Term Impact of Prosthesis‐Patient Mismatch After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Small Aortic Annuli

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Prosthesis‐patient mismatch (PPM) remains common following transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and is associated with worse clinical outcomes. PPM is of particular concern in small aortic annuli (SAA). Aims To compare the incidence, predictors, and long‐term impact of PPM in SAA TAVR.

Role of selenium in the pathophysiology of cardiorenal anaemia syndrome

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 770-780, April 2025.
Abstract Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) have multiple bidirectional mechanisms, and anaemia is one of the critical factors that are associated with the progression of the two disorders [referred to as cardiorenal anaemia syndrome (CRAS)].
