Moderate hyperuricaemia ameliorated kidney damage in a low‐renin model of experimental renal insufficiency

Basic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 132, Issue 1, Page 21-32, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Uric acid has promoted renal fibrosis and inflammation in experimental studies, but some studies have shown nephroprotective effects due to alleviated oxidative stress. We studied the influence of experimental hyperuricaemia in surgically 5/6 nephrectomized rats. Three weeks after subtotal nephrectomy or sham operation, the rats were allocated

Inflammation and the Peritoneal Membrane: Causes and Impact on Structure and Function during Peritoneal Dialysis [PDF]

, 2012
Peritoneal dialysis therapy has increased in popularity since the end of the 1970s. This method provides a patient survival rate equivalent to hemodialysis and better preservation of residual renal function. However, technique failure by peritonitis, and

Improved surgical outcomes following simultaneous pancreas‐kidney transplantation in the contemporary era

Clinical Transplantation, Volume 36, Issue 11, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Complications leading to early technical failure have been the Achilles’ heel of simultaneous pancreas‐kidney transplantation (SPKT). The study purpose was to analyze longitudinally our experience with early surgical complications following SPKT with an emphasis on changes in practice that improved outcomes in the most recent era ...

Utility of geriatric assessments in evaluation of older adults for kidney transplantation

Clinical Transplantation, Volume 36, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background While kidney transplantation has favorable outcomes in patients aged 65 years and older, many are not referred for evaluation despite having no contraindications. We wanted to determine whether incorporating geriatrics and geriatric assessments (GA), as part of kidney transplant evaluation at the University of Chicago Medicine ...

Effects of receiving renal biopsy on the prognosis of chronic kidney disease patients with impaired renal function

BMC Nephrology, 2023
Background Impaired renal function was not a recognized indication for renal biopsy. The effects of receiving renal biopsy on the renal functional prognosis for chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with impaired renal function need to be explored ...
