Characterizing pre-transplant and post-transplant kidney rejection risk by B cell immune repertoire sequencing. [PDF]

, 2019
Studying immune repertoire in the context of organ transplant provides important information on how adaptive immunity may contribute and modulate graft rejection. Here we characterize the peripheral blood immune repertoire of individuals before and after

Intradialytic hypotension is an important risk factor for critical limb ischemia in patients on hemodialysis

BMC Nephrology, 2019
Background Critical limb ischemia (CLI) and intradialytic hypotension (IDH) are common complications in patients on hemodialysis (HD). However, limited data are available on whether IDH is related to CLI in these patients.

High prevalence of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in incident hemodialysis patients: screening by ankle-brachial index (ABI) and skin perfusion pressure (SPP) measurement

Renal Replacement Therapy, 2018
Background Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) has much impact on mortality in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Ankle-brachial index (ABI) and skin perfusion pressure (SPP) are useful tools to detect PAD in HD patients.
