Kidney biopsy in patients with small kidneys: diagnostic yield and treatment modification in a retrospective cohort study

Renal Failure
Background Reduced renal size has traditionally been considered a relative contraindication to kidney biopsy because of the perception that advanced chronic damage provides limited diagnostic or therapeutic benefit.

Significance of chromosome 9p status in renal cell carcinoma:a systematic review and quality of the reported studies [PDF]

, 2014
Defining the prognosis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) using genetic tests is an evolving area. The prognostic significance of 9p status in RCC, although described in the literature, remains underutilised in clinical practice. The study explored the causes

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

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,

Using cell‐free RNA to identify B‐ and T‐cell clonality for diagnosis and monitoring of B‐ and T‐cell neoplasms

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using peripheral blood for determining B‐cell or T‐cell clonality is more reliable when we use cell‐free RNA (cfRNA) because cells release blood significantly more RNA than DNA. Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) of cfRNA allows us to evaluate fragment cfRNA and evaluate clonality reliably without the need for prior determination of the specific dominant

Five‐Year Outcomes of Laparoscopic Sphincter‐Preserving Surgery for Rectal Cancer: A Prospective Study in Elderly Vietnamese Patients

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
This prospective study demonstrates that laparoscopic sphincter‐preserving surgery is feasible for elderly patients. While overall survival reaches 70% at 5 years, advanced T‐stage and the omission of neoadjuvant therapy significantly drive recurrence, highlighting the need for personalized geriatric protocols despite logistical challenges.

Evaluating the Adequacy of Adults Renal Biopsy Specimens Conducted by Different Methods

مجله دانشکده پزشکی اصفهان, 2011
Background: Renal biopsy has an important role in the evaluation of renal disease. A sufficient amount of renal tissue in biopsy sample is required for pathologic diagnosis. The common method of renal biopsy (Blind method) is used for years.
