Acute Glomerulonephritis

, 2017
Glomerular disease can cause acute renal failure but typically accounts for fewer than 10% of all cases. The most common cause is a rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis resulting from granulomatous polyangiitis (GPA, Wegener granulomatosis ...

Australian consensus recommendations for the management of increased meningococcal infection risk in adults with neurological diseases treated with complement inhibitors

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Complement inhibitor therapy carries a risk of serious infections, including meningococcal disease. Here we provide evidence‐based recommendations and expert consensus for immunisation and prophylactic treatment of patients receiving, or planning to receive, complement inhibitors for neurological conditions in the Australian setting.

Targeting the miR‐224‐5p/PTEN pathway: A previously under‐characterized strategy to attenuate mesangial cell injury and predict prognosis in diabetic nephropathy

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Serum miR‐224‐5p levels are progressively elevated in diabetic nephropathy (DN) and serve as an independent predictor of a decline in eGFR of ≥30% over 2 years. Mechanistically, miR‐224‐5p directly targets PTEN 3’‐UTR, suppressing PTEN and the activation of the AKT pathway in high‐glucose‐stimulated mesangial cells.

Outcomes for Frail Dialysis Patients Not Referred for Transplantation: A Cohort Study

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Frailty is highly prevalent in kidney failure, but it is unclear whether frailty impacts health outcomes for those initiating dialysis who are not referred for transplantation. Our objective was to determine if frailty is associated with death or development of a permanent contraindication to transplantation among eligible non ...
