Development of a Novel UPC (Urine Red Blood Cell Distribution, Proteinuria, and Serum Creatinine) Index to Differentiate Glomerular from Nonglomerular Hematuria

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
The study developed the UPC index by integrating urine red blood cell distribution (URD), urine protein strip, and serum creatinine to enhance the diagnostic accuracy for distinguishing glomerular from nonglomerular hematuria. The UPC index demonstrated superior performance (AUC 0.857) compared to conventional parameters, showing high sensitivity and ...

IgA Glycosylation in IgA Nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the commonest form of glomerulonephritis in developed countries where renal biopsy is widely practiced1. IgAN is defined by the deposition of IgA in the glomerular mesangium. Most typically, patients present with episodes of visible haematuria, which often concide with respiratory or gastrointestinal infection.

Dextran sodium sulfate confounds causal role of periodontitis in inflammatory bowel disease

open access: yesJournal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Emerging evidence supports a bidirectional link between periodontitis and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). To investigate this relationship, experimental models commonly use dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) to induce colitis. However, DSS is presumed to selectively affect the colon, and its potential off‐target effects on the oral ...

Exploring the causal effect of complement and IgA nephropathy—a Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesRenal Failure
IgA nephropathy, one of the most common primary glomerulonephritis worldwide, is still under investigation for its precise etiology. The widely accepted theory is the ‘four-hit model’ and subsequent complement and inflammatory responses.

Gut Microbes in Immunoglobulin A Nephropathy and Their Potential Therapeutic Applications

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Microbial ecosystem consists of a complex community of bacterial interactions and its host microenvironment (tissue, cell, metabolite). Because the interaction between gut microbiota and host involves many diseases and seriously affects human health, the

Therapeutic Options for IgA Pemphigus in Patients Refractory to Dapsone

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT IgA pemphigus is a rare autoimmune blistering disorder with limited therapeutic guidance available due to its rarity and complex presentation. This comprehensive analysis evaluates the therapeutic outcomes of 67 published patients, emphasising the significant role of dapsone as the first‐line treatment.

Forsythiaside A Alleviates Kidney Injury and Intestinal Epithelium Dysfunction in IgA Nephropathy by Inhibiting TLR4/NF‐κB Signaling

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT IgA nephropathy (IgAN), the most common form of glomerulonephritis, is a major and growing public health issue. It results from intestinal barrier dysfunction that leads to mesangial deposition of pathogenic galactose‐deficient IgA1 (Gd‐IgA1) and renal inflammation.
