A case of reninoma with variant angina

open access: yesKidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2014
Reninoma is a tumor of the renal juxtaglomerular cell apparatus that causes hypertension and hypokalemia because of hypersecretion of renin. We present a case of a 29-year-old female patient with reninoma and concomitant variant angina.

A novel index, Chinese visceral adiposity index is closely associated with urinary albumin‐creatinine ratio in Chinese community adults, especially in hypertensive or hyperglycemic population: Results from the REACTION study 一个新的指标, 中国人内脏脂肪指数与中国社区成年人(特别是高血压或高血糖人群)尿白蛋白‐肌酐比值密切相关:来自REACTION研究的结果

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes, Volume 14, Issue 12, Page 792-805, December 2022., 2022
Highlights This is the first large‐sample, multicenter study of the relationship between Chinese Visceral Adiposity Index (CVAI) and urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) in Chinese community adults. CVAI and UACR were significantly associated in both genders. At higher CVAI levels, the population with prediabetes, diabetes, and hypertension has a

Low plasma renin activity is an independent predictor of near-term incidence of hypertension in Asian populations

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Hypertension, 2019
Background: Plasma renin activity is involved in the regulation of body salt content and blood pressure. However, there is a paucity of data regarding the association between low or high plasma renin activity and the development of hypertension.

Estimate of the Upper Limit on Hot Plasma Differential Emission Measure (DEM) in Non-Flaring Active Regions and Nanoflare Frequency Based on the Mg XII Spectroheliograph Data from CORONAS-F/SPIRIT [PDF]

open access: yesSolar Physics, 2018, 293:140, 2018
The nanoflare-heating theory predicts steady hot plasma emission in the non-flaring active regions. It is hard to find this emission with conventional non-monochromatic imagers (such as Atmospheric Imaging Assembly or X-Ray Telescope), because their images contain a cool temperature background.

Plasma Renin Activity in Pheochromocytoma

open access: yesJapanese Circulation Journal, 1968
Plasma renin activity was measured in seven patients with pheochromocytoma. Increased plasma renin activity was consistently observed in five cases, in whom urinary excretion of noradrenaline was higher than that of adrenaline. In one patient, there occurred a progressive rise in plasma renin activity with a proportionate increase in urinary excretion ...

Vitamin D—A prominent immunomodulator to prevent COVID‐19 infection

open access: yesInternational Journal of Rheumatic Diseases, Volume 26, Issue 1, Page 13-30, January 2023., 2023
Abstract COVID‐19 remains a life‐threatening infectious disease worldwide. Several bio‐active agents have been tested and evaluated in an effort to contain this disease. Unfortunately, none of the therapies have been successful, owing to their safety concerns and the presence of various adverse effects.

Diagnostic efficacy of chemiluminescence immunoassay versus radioimmunoassay in screening primary aldosteronism

open access: yesDi-san junyi daxue xuebao, 2019
Objective To compare the sensitivity and specificity of chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) and radioimmunoassay (RIA) in detection of aldosterone and renin, and to explore the optional detection methods and indicators for screening primary ...

Effect of He Self-organized pattern plasma-activated media with different conductivity on cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
The self-organized pattern (SOP) phenomenon is prevalent in plasma, while knowledge about SOP discharge affecting reactive species generated plasma-activated media (PAM) for cancer therapy is poorly documented. The aim of this study focused on the effect of SOP discharge modes on reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS, RNS) in He SOP plasma ...

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

open access: yesBasic &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

Active plasma resonance spectroscopy: A functional analytic description [PDF]

open access: yesPlasma Sources Sci. Technol. 22 (2013) 025005, 2012
The term "Active Plasma Resonance Spectroscopy" refers to a class of diagnostic methods which employ the ability of plasmas to resonate on or near the plasma frequency. The basic idea dates back to the early days of discharge physics: An signal in the GHz range is coupled to the plasma via an electrical probe; the spectral response is recorded, and ...
