Clinical Phenotypes and Long-term Prognosis in White Patients With Biopsy-Verified Hypertensive Nephrosclerosis

Kidney International Reports, 2020
Introduction: Hypertensive nephrosclerosis is considered the second most common cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), but it is still an insufficiently studied and controversial disease entity. More information on the phenotype and prognosis is needed

Transthyretin levels in the vitreous correlate with change in visual acuity after vitrectomy [PDF]

, 2009
Background/aim: Little is known about biochemical markers related to change in visual acuity after vitrectomy. The potential use of transthyretin (TTR), a carrier of the retinol/retinol-binding protein, as a biochemical marker protein, was investigated ...

Increased telomere attrition following renal transplantation: impact of anti-metabolite therapy [PDF]

, 2016
Background: The uremic milieu exposes chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients to premature ageing processes. The impact of renal replacement therapy (dialysis and renal transplantation [RTx]) or immunosuppressive treatment regimens on ageing biomarkers has

Gene Expression Studies and Targeted Metabolomics Reveal Disturbed Serine, Methionine, and Tyrosine Metabolism in Early Hypertensive Nephrosclerosis

Kidney International Reports, 2019
Introduction: Hypertensive nephrosclerosis is among the leading causes of end-stage renal disease, but its pathophysiology is poorly understood. We wanted to explore early metabolic changes using gene expression and targeted metabolomics analysis ...

APOL1 Risk Variants Independently Associated With Early Cardiovascular Disease Death

Kidney International Reports, 2018
The relationship of APOL1 renal risk variants to cardiovascular disease (CVD) is controversial and was the subject of this investigation. Methods: Age, cause of death, and nephrosclerosis (the latter defined by glomerulosclerosis) were analyzed in the ...
