Bartter-Like Syndrome as the Initial Presentation of Dent Disease 1: A Case Report

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2021
Dent disease is a rare genetic disease characterized by low-molecular-weight proteinuria. Dent disease with Bartter-like syndrome is rare and can easily be misdiagnosed and mistreated. Herein, we report a case of Dent disease 1 with Bartter-like syndrome

Alendronate or alfacalcidol in glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis [PDF]

, 2006
BACKGROUND: Treatment with glucocorticoids is associated with bone loss starting soon after therapy is initiated and an increased risk of fracture. METHODS: We performed a randomized, double-placebo, double-blind clinical trial of 18 months' duration ...

Machine learning‐based predictive models versus traditional risk scores in hemodialysis patients with comorbid urolithiasis

Precision Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
Machine learning‐based predictive models outperform traditional risk scores in hemodialysis patients with comorbid urolithiasis by capturing nonlinear, dialysis‐specific interactions. These approaches enable more accurate prediction of stone recurrence, sepsis, hospitalization, and mortality, supporting personalized risk stratification and precision ...

Opening closed inward rectifier potassium channel doors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Inwardly rectifying potassium (KIR) channels are essential regulators of membrane potential in excitable and non‐excitable tissues. Although KIR channels exhibit a biophysical preference for potassium influx due to voltage‐dependent block of outward current by polyamines and Mg2+, under physiological conditions, they predominantly mediate K+ efflux ...

Vitamin D receptor (VDR) contributes to the development of hypercalciuria by sensitizing VDR target genes to vitamin D in a genetic hypercalciuric stone-forming (GHS) rat model

Genes and Diseases, 2022
Human idiopathic hypercalciuria (IH) is the most common cause of calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis with perturbed calcium metabolism with increased bone resorption and decreased renal calcium reabsorption, which can be phenotype-copied in the genetic ...

Effect of Two Therapeutic Renal Diets on Hormonal and Regulatory Pathways Affecting Calcium Homeostasis in Cats With Early‐Stage Chronic Kidney Disease

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a known risk factor for hypercalcemia in cats. Phosphate‐restricted diets have also been implicated in causing hypercalcemia, in part because phosphate restriction increases the Ca:P ratio. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of two different therapeutic renal foods on ionized (iCa ...
