Advances in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease: A Clinical Review

open access: yesKidney Medicine, 2020
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a multiorgan disorder resulting in fluid-filled cyst formation in the kidneys and other systems. The replacement of kidney parenchyma with an ever-increasing volume of cysts eventually leads to kidney failure. Recently,

Rheumatologic Manifestations of Patients With Type B Insulin Resistance

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The objectives of this study were to identify laboratory and clinical features associated with type B insulin resistance (TBIR), a rare condition caused by autoantibodies that inhibit the insulin receptor, most frequently occurring in the setting of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and to increase awareness of this rare, life‐threatening ...

Kidney transcriptome and cystic kidney disease genes in zebrafish

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Introduction: Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a condition where fluid filled cysts form on the kidney which leads to overall renal failure. Zebrafish has been recently adapted to study polycystic kidney disease, because of its powerful embryology and ...

Ultrasound‐Actuated Gene Editing in Human Kidney Organoids

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Peptide‐stabilized nanoemulsions enable spatially controlled, ultrasound‐triggered delivery of gene‐editing proteins deep within human kidney organoid tissues. Focused acoustic pulses drive droplet vaporization, propelling cargo into target renal cells while preserving native tissue microarchitecture. This non‐viral platform improves both the depth and

Participant Perceptions of Increasing Water Intake in Polycystic Kidney Disease

open access: yesKidney International Reports
Introduction: Clinical practice guidelines suggest maintaining adequate hydration in people with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). However, the long-term perceptions of increasing water intake and the role of self-efficacy tools are ...

Beneficial Body Mass Index for Age‐Related Kidney Function in Males and Females

open access: yesAGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
The impact of BMI on age‐related kidney function decline is highly sex‐ and age‐dependent. Normal BMI (18.5–25 kg/m2) is associated with better age‐related kidney function in all‐aged males and females older than 45 years. ABSTRACT Objectives Kidney function declines with aging, leading to a high prevalence of age‐related disease.

Streamlining Diagnosis of Bardet–Biedl Syndrome: New Diagnostic Algorithm With Updated Criteria

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Considerable advances have been made in our understanding of Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS), particularly in its core clinical features and molecular genetics, warranting an update to the existing diagnostic criteria framework. Using a rigorous, evidence‐based, and consensus‐driven process, a multidisciplinary group of international experts and ...

Genotype–Phenotype Correlations of Monoallelic PFIC Variants in Pediatric Liver Disease: A Multicenter Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) is classically caused by biallelic pathogenic variants, yet monoallelic variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in PFIC‐associated genes are increasingly identified in children with cholestasis, creating diagnostic uncertainty.

Effect of adequate daily water intake versus inadequate water intake on the risk of major chronic diseases in healthy adults: a systematic review protocol

open access: yesSystematic Reviews
Background Chronic diseases (cardiovascular, cancer, respiratory, diabetes and chronic kidney disease) account for over 80% of global mortality and remain a leading public health challenge. Although water intake is essential to physiological function and
