The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Urine metabolomic analysis to detect metabolites associated with the development of contrast induced nephropathy. [PDF]
ObjectiveContrast induced nephropathy (CIN) is a result of injury to the proximal tubules. The incidence of CIN is around 11% for imaging done in the acute care setting.

Impact of gender in early structural changes of contrast induced nephropathy in rats
Introduction: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a major iatrogenic cause of acute kidney injury. Experimental studies have shown that intravascular injection causes intense vacuolization of the contrast agent in the proximal renal tubules cells ...

Abstract Background and aims The heart is a metabolic organ rich in mitochondria. The failing heart reprograms to utilize different energy substrates, which increase its oxygen consumption. These adaptive changes contribute to increased oxidative stress.

EPRS1-mediated fibroblast activation and mitochondrial dysfunction promote kidney fibrosis
Kidney fibrosis causes irreversible structural damage in chronic kidney disease and is characterized by aberrant extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation.

Background Adult patients with minimal change nephrotic syndrome (MCNS) are often associated with acute kidney injury (AKI). To assess the mechanisms of AKI, we examined whether tubular cell injuries unique to MCNS patients exist.

Current and novel biomarkers in cardiogenic shock
A summary of current and novel biomarkers and their potential stages of release in cardiogenic shock. The diagram illustrates the proposed release of the biomarkers during the different stages of cardiogenic shock: progression from cardiac dysfunction/stress, through to inflammation and end‐organ dysfunction.

The impact of sodium chloride (NaCl) supplementation on proximal and distal tubular reabsorption in acute heart failure (AHF). Abstract Aims We questioned the long‐standing paradigm that sodium/chloride restriction is essential for effective decongestion in acute heart failure (AHF). This study compared the decongestive effects of two isotonic infusion
