Combined atypical primary hypoadrenocorticism and primary hypothyroidism in a dog [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A dog with combined atypical primary hypoadrenocorticism and primary hypothyroidism is described. The dog presented with waxing and waning, vague complaints since more than a year and had been treated with several drugs without complete resolution of ...

Forsythiaside A Alleviates Kidney Injury and Intestinal Epithelium Dysfunction in IgA Nephropathy by Inhibiting TLR4/NF‐κB Signaling

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT IgA nephropathy (IgAN), the most common form of glomerulonephritis, is a major and growing public health issue. It results from intestinal barrier dysfunction that leads to mesangial deposition of pathogenic galactose‐deficient IgA1 (Gd‐IgA1) and renal inflammation.

Lipid Profile in Primary Aldosteronism: Cross‐Sectional and Post‐Treatment Analyses

open access: yesLipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The relationship between primary aldosteronism (PA) and lipid metabolism remains controversial, with inconsistent findings reported in the literature. This study aimed to clarify PA's impact on the lipid profile using both a cross‐sectional comparison with essential hypertension (EH) controls and a longitudinal within‐patient pre‐post ...

Circadian Immunity and Vascular Inflammation in Cardiovascular Disease Chronotherapy Windows: Time for a Re‐Assessment

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circadian rhythms orchestrate cardiovascular physiology by regulating immune and inflammatory pathways. Disruption of these rhythms profoundly alters vascular homeostasis, thereby promoting the onset and progression of cardiovascular diseases (CVD).

The ratios of aldosterone / plasma renin activity (ARR) versus aldosterone / direct renin concentration (ADRR)

open access: yesJournal of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, 2014
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is estimated to occur in 5–12% of patients with hypertension. Assessment of aldosterone / plasma renin activity (PRA) ratio (ARR) has been used as a screening test in patients suspected of PA. Direct determination of renin (DRC) and calculation of aldosterone / direct renin concentration ratio (ADRR) could be similarly ...

Association between serum bicarbonate and low mid‐upper arm circumference in patients with non‐dialysis‐dependent chronic kidney disease: A cross‐sectional study

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although previous experimental studies showed that metabolic acidosis promoted muscle catabolism and impaired protein synthesis, few epidemiological studies reported an independent association between serum bicarbonate levels and muscle atrophy in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
