Background: Renal involvement is a common occurrence in perinatal asphyxia. Till date, only a handful of studies from across the globe have evaluated the use of renal Doppler as a predictive modality for acute kidney injury (AKI) in birth asphyxia. Aims:

Intrarenal Doppler approaches in hemodynamics: A major application in critical care
The treatment of severe cases usually requires multimodality hemodynamic monitoring approaches, particularly for tissue and organ perfusion tracking. Currently, only a few studies have investigated renal perfusion status at the bedside.

Renovascular adaptive changes in chronic hypoxic polycythemia [PDF]
Renovascular adaptive changes in chronic hypoxic polycythemia.BackgroundChronic hypoxia in rats produces polycythemia, and the plasma fraction falls, reducing renal plasma flow (RPF) relative to renal blood flow (RBF).

Bilateral native nephrectomy improves renal isograft function in rats [PDF]
Bilateral native nephrectomy improves renal isograft function in rats. Bilateral native nephrectomy has been suggested to improve renal allograft survival in man. This effect may be most prominent in patients experiencing acute tubular necrosis following

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

Reduced CD40L expression on ex vivo activated CD4+T-lymphocytes from patients with excellent renal allograft function measured with a rapid whole blood flow cytometry procedure [PDF]
Background: The CD40-CD40L (CD154) costimulatory pathway plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of kidney allograft rejection. In renal transplant biopsies, CD4+ CD40L+ graft-infiltrating cells were detected during chronic rejection in contrast to ...

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells
In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

Cell‐free and extracellular vesicle microRNAs with clinical utility for solid tumors
Cell‐free microRNAs (cfmiRs) are small‐RNA circulating molecules detectable in almost all body biofluids. Innovative technologies have improved the application of cfmiRs to oncology, with a focus on clinical needs for different solid tumors, but with emphasis on diagnosis, prognosis, cancer recurrence, as well as treatment monitoring.

971-54 A Non-invasive Method of Visually Assessing Renal Perfusion Using a Newly Developed Intravenous Ultrasound Contrast [PDF]
Present methods of quantifying renal artery blood flow (RABF) in renovascular disease require either radionuclide techniques or invasive delivery of radiographic or ultrasound contrast.
