Abstract Glycaemic therapy in type 1 diabetes (T1D) is focused on insulin, with the majority of studies investigating different insulin preparations, delivery devices and dosing accuracy methods. While insulin deficiency is the key mechanism for hyperglycaemia in T1D, individuals with this condition can also develop insulin resistance (IR), making ...

The ‘nephrotoxins’ were stopped: what is in a name and its impact on kidney and cardiac health?
Abstract The term ‘nephrotoxin’ is often imprecisely applied to medications that are not inherently toxic to the kidneys, including renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system inhibitors, sodium‐glucose co‐transporter 2 inhibitors, diuretics and metformin. These drugs are frequently included in ‘sick day rules’ and may be prematurely discontinued during acute

Renal Function in Suckling and Fasting Pups of the Northern Elephant Seal [PDF]
Elephant seals fast for prolonged periods without access to water. This is made possible, in part, by reductions in urine production. However, the mechanisms involved in reducing urine production are not understood.

Unilateral, minimally invasive, renal arterial embolization and delayed contralateral nephrectomy was described in cats as a novel remnant kidney model of chronic kidney disease using two doses of embolic particles. Renal function declined and characteristic histopathological markers of kidney disease were present 6 months after the embolism procedure.

Introduction In addition to favoring renal disease progression, renal ‘hyperfiltration’ has been associated with an increased risk of death, though it is unclear whether and how excess mortality is related to increased renal function.

Hyperfiltration and Albuminuria—A Deadly Combination [PDF]
I ndividuals with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at high risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), and roughly half die of CHD without developing end-stage renal disease. Two key kidney measurements: estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and albuminuria, are consistently associated with high CHD risk.

Abstract Background and Aims Adequate lipid control has emerged as a key factor in the prevention and management of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Remnant cholesterol (RC), a lipoprotein with an established association with cardiovascular risk, has been investigated in the context of CKD.

Microalbuminuria as Predictor of Early Glomerular Injury in Children and Adolescents with Sickle Cell Anaemia at Muhimbili National Hospital Dar es Salaam, Tanzania 2012 [PDF]
Microalbuminuria (MA) is the earliest marker of various diseases affecting the renal system. Its relevance in children and adolescents with sickle cell anaemia (SCA), who are known to be prone to renal complications, has not been fully explored in our ...
