Hematuria as a risk factor for progression of chronic kidney disease and death: findings from the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort (CRIC) Study

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2018
BackgroundHematuria is associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD), but has rarely been examined as a risk factor for CKD progression. We explored whether individuals with hematuria had worse outcomes compared to those without hematuria in the CRIC ...

An unusual presentation of hematuria [PDF]

open access: yesKidney International, 2011
An 83-year-old man with a past medical history of prostate cancer presented after he developed hematuria. Serum creatinine was 1.3 mg/dl. Serum albumin was 1.4 mg/dl. Urine albumin/creatinine ratio was 1.6 g/g; protein/creatinine ratio was 7 g/g. Corrected serum/calcium was 11.9 mg/dl.

Artificial Intelligence‐Assisted Urine Cytology for Noninvasive Detection of Muscle‐Invasive Urothelial Carcinoma: A Multi‐Center Diagnostic Study with Prospective Validation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Accurate preoperative detection of muscle‐invasive urothelial carcinoma (MIUC) is crucial for clinical decision‐making. This study developed PUCAS‐M, an artificial intelligence (AI) model that analyzes urine cytology to assist in differentiating MIUC from non‐MIUC.

Urinary cell‐free microRNA biomarker could discriminate bladder cancer from benign hematuria

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, 2018
The most common symptom of bladder cancer (BC) is hematuria. However, not all patients with hematuria are diagnosed with BC. Here, we explored a novel method to discriminate BC from hematuria under nonmalignant conditions by measuring differences in ...

AIEgen‐Based and Smartphone‐Assisted On‐Site Quantitation of Cystatin C for Monitoring of Chronic Kidney Disease

open access: yesAggregate, EarlyView.
By employing new protein‐templated AIEgen Ir@BSA as the phosphorescence signal indicator and papain as the biomolecular recognition element, a straightforward protocol for Cys C quantitation has been developed. On‐site quantitation of Cys C in clinical serum samples has been successfully demonstrated using a smartphone‐based portable phosphorescence ...

Aberrant Glycosylation of IgG in Children With Active Lupus Nephritis Alters Podocyte Metabolism and Causes Podocyte Injury

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Podocytes are integral to the maintenance of the glomerular filtration barrier. Their injury results in proteinuria and disease progression in lupus nephritis (LN). Aberrant IgG glycosylation drives podocyte injury in LN and leads to cytoskeletal rearrangement, motility changes, and decreased nephrin production.
