Nanocomposite membranes with Au nanoparticles for dialysis-based catalytic reduction-separation of nitroaromatic compounds [PDF]

open access: yesReactive and Functional Polymers 170, 2022, 105119, 2023
Apart from the fact that nitroaromatic compounds (NARs) have toxic and mutagenic characteristics, they are also essential substrates for the synthesis of aromatic amines (AAMs). In this context, the present study presents a new approach that enables NAR-contaminated wastewaters to be treated as a reagent for the synthesis of AAMs.

Hydrothorax Complicating Peritoneal Dialysis, a Case Report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Hydrothorax is a rare but serious complication of peritoneal dialysis. We report a recurrent pleural effusion in a case of ESRD (end stage renal disease) treated by pleurodesis using tetracycline. Key words: Sweet pleural effusion.

Sarcopenia ‘made simple’ and outcomes from emergency laparotomy

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, Volume 92, Issue 12, Page 3198-3203, December 2022., 2022
CT‐assessed ratio of L3 vertebral body cross‐sectional area to total psoas muscle cross‐sectional area (L3:PM) is a simple yet significant predictor of 30‐, 90‐ and 365‐day mortality in emergency laparotomy patients. This study is the first to describe the association in an Australian population.

Urinary mitochondrial DNA level as a biomarker of tissue injury in non-diabetic chronic kidney diseases

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2018
Background Urinary mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) fragment level has been proposed as a biomarker of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this study, we determine the relation between urinary mtDNA level and rate of renal function deterioration in non-diabetic ...

HIF1α-BNIP3-mediated mitophagy protects against renal fibrosis by decreasing ROS and inhibiting activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2023
Chronic kidney disease affects approximately 14.3% of people worldwide. Tubulointerstitial fibrosis is the final stage of almost all progressive CKD. To date, the pathogenesis of renal fibrosis remains unclear, and there is a lack of effective treatments,

Vancomycin in peritoneal dialysis: Clinical pharmacology considerations in therapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Intraperitoneal vancomycin is the first-line therapy in the management of peritoneal dialysis (PD)-related peritonitis. However, due to the paucity of data, vancomycin dosing for peritonitis in patients on automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) is empiric ...
