Complete genome sequence of BK polyomavirus subtype Ib-1 detected in a kidney transplant patient with BK viremia using shotgun sequencing [PDF]
We report here the complete genome sequence of polyomavirus BK subtype Ib-1, isolate AR11, identified in urine from a human kidney transplant recipient with a clinical diagnosis of BK viremia. The AR11 isolate is closely related to reference strain human

Obstructive nephropathy is a relatively common entity that is treatable and often reversible. It occurs at all ages from infancy to elderly subjects. Obstructive uropathy is classified according to the degree, duration and site of the obstruction. It is the result of functional or anatomic lesions located in the urinary tract. The causes of obstructive

Acute kidney injury on chronic kidney disease: From congestive heart failure to light chain deposition disease and cast nephropathy in multiple myeloma [PDF]
Acute on chronic renal failure is a common but notably broad diagnosis. We present a 64-year-old man with a history of diastolic heart failure and chronic kidney disease, admitted for an elevated creatinine.

Membranous nephropathy is a glomerular disease that may be caused by exogenous risk factors in genetically predisposed individuals (primary MN) or may be associated with other autoimmune diseases, drug exposure, or cytotoxic agents (secondary MN). Primary membranous nephropathy (PMN) is an autoimmune disease in which antigens—mainly the phospholipase ...

Urinary proteomics for prediction of mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes and microalbuminuria [PDF]
Background: The urinary proteomic classifier CKD273 has shown promise for prediction of progressive diabetic nephropathy (DN). Whether it is also a determinant of mortality and cardiovascular disease in patients with microalbuminuria (MA) is unknown.
