Long‐Term Nutritional Benefits of Laparoscopic Pancreatoduodenectomy Over Open Surgery

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Minimally invasive laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) significantly improves long‐term nutritional outcomes compared to open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD). LPD patients demonstrated better preservation of muscle mass index (PMI) and a lower incidence of postoperative fatty liver.

Proenkephalin, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, and estimated glomerular filtration rates in patients with sepsis [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Proenkephalin (PENK) has been suggested as a novel biomarker for kidney function. We investigated the diagnostic and prognostic utility of plasma PENK in comparison with neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and estimated ...

Age-dependent reference intervals for estimated and measured glomerular filtration rate

Clinical Kidney Journal, 2017
Background Defining mean and reference intervals for glomerular filtration rate (GFR) has been the subject of only a limited number of studies and review articles, with contradicting statements about the mean.

Impact of Intraoperative Fluid Volume on Complications After Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy: Analysis of 8782 Patients From the Japanese National Clinical Database

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This multicenter cohort study of 8782 esophagectomies in Japan found that higher intraoperative fluid volume significantly increased the risk of pneumonia after minimally invasive esophagectomy. Avoiding fluid overload may help reduce postoperative pneumonia.

Cystatin C as Biomarker for the Evaluation of Renal Outcome in AL Amyloidosis

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cystatin C (CysC) has emerged as a novel and potentially more reliable biomarker for the estimation of glomerular filtration in the general population in patients with various conditions. In AL amyloidosis, the current renal staging system and renal response criteria are based on proteinuria and creatinine‐based eGFR.

Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate and the Risk of Cancer.

American Society of Nephrology. Clinical Journal, 2019
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Community-based reports regarding eGFR and the risk of cancer are conflicting. We here explore plausible links between kidney function and cancer incidence in a large Scandinavian population-based cohort.

Nuclear medicine: investigation of renal function in small animal medicine [PDF]

, 2011
Kidney function investigations in veterinary medicine are traditionally based on blood analysis (blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine concentration) and / or urinalysis (urine specific gravity, protein-to-creatinine ratio or fractional ...

Long‐term immunosuppression of rabbits through oral tacrolimus administration

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Oral gavage of rabbits with 1.5 mg/kg/d of tacrolimus allows for an efficient long‐term (1 year) immunosuppression with minimal side effects and no loss of animals. lmmunosuppressed rabbits are a convenient animal model to investigate the long‐term efficacy of human allografts in vivo.
