Comparison of Biocompatibility and Efficacy of Regional Citrate Anticoagulation and Unfractionated Heparin During Expanded Hemodialysis With a Medium Cut‐Off Membrane—A Randomized Trial

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
In a randomized cross‐over trial, regional citrate anticoagulation provided superior biocompatibility over full‐dose unfractionated heparin during expanded hemodialysis with significantly lower activation of complement, granulocytes, and platelets without affecting dialysis efficiency. ABSTRACT Background Regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) improves

Glomerular plasmalemma vesicle‐associated protein‐1 as an endothelial remodelling marker complementing C4d in chronic active antibody‐mediated rejection

open access: yesHistopathology, EarlyView.
Glomerular plasmalemma vesicle‐associated protein‐1 (PV‐1/PLVAP) identifies dynamic endothelial remodelling in chronic active antibody‐mediated rejection (caABMR), complementing glomerular C4d, which reflects a static footprint of complement activation. Combined assessment of PV‐1 and C4d captures complementary dimensions of microvascular pathology and
