THE CORRELATION OF SERUM PREALBUMIN AND ROUTINE NUTRITION PARAMETERS IN CONTINUOUS AMBULATORY PERITONEAL DIALYSIS PATIENTS

Kidney Research and Clinical Practice, 2012
Prealbumin is evidenced to reflect recent dietary intake rather than overall nutrition status because of its short half-life. Most of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients show hypoalbuminnemia.

Ischial Pressure Ulcer Reconstruction: A Critical Review of the Paradigm Shift From Wound Coverage to Functional Restoration

Wound Repair and Regeneration, Volume 34, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Ischial pressure ulcers (IPUs), severe complications in patients with prolonged immobility, are challenging due to high recurrence. Moving beyond anatomical closure, the field now prioritises functional‐integrated reconstruction. This paradigm emphasises radical debridement and the transfer of well‐vascularized perforator flaps to obliterate ...

Blood Lactate as a Prognostic Biomarker for Survival and Weight Loss in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: An Exploratory–Validation Study

Annals of Neurology, Volume 99, Issue 6, Page 1526-1535, June 2026.
Objective Lactate is increasingly recognized as an energy substrate, but its relevance to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) remains unclear. We examined whether blood lactate is associated with survival and weight loss in ALS. Methods This retrospective study included an Australian exploratory cohort and a Japanese validation cohort with clinical ...

Extraction and recombination studies of the interaction of retinol with human plasma retinol-binding protein

Journal of Lipid Research, 1972
Methods have been developed for the removal of retinol from human plasma retinol-binding protein (RBP), so as to form the retinol-free apoprotein, and for the recombination of apo-RBP with retinol to again form the holoprotein.
