Effect of Proteinuria and Glomerular Filtration Rate on Renal Outcome in Patients with Biopsy-Proven Benign Nephrosclerosis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
BACKGROUND:Reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and proteinuria are risk factors for end-stage renal disease (ESRD), of which benign nephrosclerosis is a common cause.

Tumor B‐cell infiltration in platinum‐treated advanced muscle‐invasive urothelial carcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Bladder tumors with higher pretreatment memory B‐cell infiltration were linked to longer survival after cisplatin chemotherapy, but not carboplatin. These tumors also showed more organized immune structures (tertiary lymphoid structures) and a shared pro‐inflammatory B‐cell‐rich community, suggesting that memory B cells may help identify patients most ...

A novel method for assessing the renal biopsy specimens using an activatable fluorescent probe [PDF]

Gamma-glutamyl hydroxymethyl rhodamine green (gGlu-HMRG) is an activatable fluorescent probe that can be activated by γ-glutamyltranspeptidase (GGT). The expression of GGT in the kidney, which is one of the major organs exhibiting enhanced GGT expression,

Comparative study between renal Doppler ultrasonography and percutaneous renal biopsy in the evaluation of chronic kidney diseases

Al-Azhar Assiut Medical Journal
Background and aim Chronic kidney disease (CKD) diagnosed when renal damage or diminished glomerular filtration rate persists for over 3 months, indicated by abnormalities like creatinine clearance and proteinuria, aims to compare renal Doppler ...

Percutaneous needle biopsy for indeterminate renal masses: a national survey of UK consultant urologists

BMC Urology, 2007
Background The use of percutaneous needle biopsy in the evaluation of indeterminate renal masses is controversial and its role in management remains largely unclear. We set to establish current practice on this issue in UK urology departments. Methods We

Derivation and characterization of retinal pigment epithelium from urine‐derived iPSCs

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Age‐related macular degeneration causes vision loss via RPE dysfunction and loss. Traditional iPSC therapies rely on invasive biopsies, limiting scalability. Here, we utilize urine‐derived stem cells as an accessible source to generate u‐iPSCs, successfully differentiated into pigmented RPE. This “Urine‐to‐Retina” platform provides a promising path for

To Biopsy a Small Renal Mass, or Not? [PDF]

Nephro-Urology Monthly, 2012
The abundant use of cross-sectional imaging has markedly increased the diagnosis of small renal masses (SRMs) (1). A strict definition of small renal masses is lacking and most authors consider lesions < 4cm as small (2). According to the literature, 20% of SRMs are benign in formal histological results and SRMs represent 48-66% of diagnosed renal cell

Complementarity of Long‐Reads and Optical Mapping in Parkinson's Disease for Structural Variants

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Long‐read sequencing and optical genome mapping technologies have the ability to detect large and complex structural variants. This has led to the discovery of novel pathogenic variants in neurodegenerative movement disorders. Thus, we aimed to systematically compare the SV detection capabilities of OGM and ONT in Parkinson's disease.
