Objective Asymptomatic hyperuricemia is a precursor of gout and is also associated with cardiovascular disease and chronic kidney disease. The aim of this study was to understand perceptions about asymptomatic hyperuricemia and views about urate‐lowering therapy in people with asymptomatic hyperuricemia. Methods Participants in a multinational study of

NELL1 membranous nephropathy: clinical associations provide mechanistic clues
Neural epidermal growth factor-like 1 (NELL1) membranous nephropathy (MN) is notable for its segmental deposit distribution, IgG1 dominant deposits, and comparatively high rate of spontaneous remission.

Complement and Glomerular Diseases [PDF]
The complement pathway is a central part of the innate immune system and also modulates adaptive immunity. It is implicated in the pathogenesis of glomerular disease by a number of clinical findings. These include the presence of complement components in renal biopsy samples, decreases in circulating levels indicating consumption, the presence of ...

Regulation of podocyte survival and endoplasmic reticulum stress by fatty acids and its modification by Stearoyl-CoA desaturases and cyclic AMP [PDF]
Podocyte apoptosis is a hallmark in the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Several factors of the diabetic milieu are known to induce podocyte apoptosis. Currently, the role of free fatty acids (FFAs) for podocytopathy and podocyte

Objective The objective was to identify factors determining acute arthritis resolution and safety with colchicine and prednisone in acute calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystal arthritis. Methods We conducted a post hoc analysis of the COLCHICORT trial, which compared colchicine and prednisone for the treatment of acute CPP crystal arthritis, using a ...

Glomerular basement membrane and related glomerular disease [PDF]
The glomerular basement membrane (GBM) is lined by fenestrated endothelium from the capillary-lumen side and by interdigitating foot processes of the podocytes from the urinary- space side. These three layers of the glomerular capillary wall constitute the functional unit of the glomerular filtration barrier.

Cardiorenal Involvement in Metabolic Syndrome Induced by Cola Drinking in Rats: Proinflammatory Cytokines and Impaired Antioxidative Protection [PDF]
We report experimental evidence confirming renal histopathology, proinflammatory mediators, and oxidative metabolism induced by cola drinking. Male Wistar rats drank ad libitum regular cola (C, = 12) or tap water (W, = 12). Measures.

Objective Body mass index (BMI), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and pretreatment urate levels have been reported to influence the urate‐lowering response to allopurinol. We investigated whether the fractional excretion of uric acid (FEUA) also modulates this response and relates to oxypurinol concentrations.

HIV-Associated Nephropathy in 2022
Background: HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) is a renal parenchymal disease that occurs exclusively in people living with HIV. It is a serious kidney condition that may possibly lead to end-stage kidney disease, particularly in the HIV-1 seropositive ...

Parietal cells—new perspectives in glomerular disease
In normal glomeruli, parietal epithelial cells (PECs) line the inside of Bowman’s capsule and form an inconspicuous sheet of flat epithelial cells in continuity with the proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs) at the urinary pole and with the podocytes
