A mathematical model for fluid-glucose-albumin transport in peritoneal dialysis [PDF]
A mathematical model for fluid and solute transport in peritoneal dialysis is constructed. The model is based on a three-component nonlinear system of two-dimensional partial differential equations for fluid, glucose and albumin transport with the relevant boundary and initial conditions.

A dual‐response DNA origami platform is developed for the early diagnosis and therapeutic intervention of sepsis‐associated acute kidney injury. Abstract Current diagnostics for sepsis‐associated acute kidney injury (SA‐AKI) detect kidney damage only at advanced stages, limiting opportunities for timely intervention. A DNA origami‐based nanoplatform is

RACK7 Interacts with PRC2 Complex to Regulate Astrocyte Development
The study investigates the role of RACK7 in brain development using a conditional knockout mouse model. RACK7 deficiency results in developmental defects and abnormal astrocyte development by disrupting H3K27me3 chromatin binding. The underlying mechanism involves RACK7 interacting with the PRC2 complex to regulate the genomic localization of SUZ12 and

Modeling water transport processes in dialysis [PDF]
Mathematical modeling is an important theoretical tool which provides researchers with quantification of the permeability of dialyzing systems in renal replacement therapy. In the paper we provide a short review of the most successful theoretical approaches and refer to the corresponding experimental methods studying these phenomena in both biological ...

A Multi-Stage Framework for the 2022 Multi-Structure Segmentation for Renal Cancer Treatment [PDF]
Three-dimensional (3D) kidney parsing on computed tomography angiography (CTA) images is of great clinical significance. Automatic segmentation of kidney, renal tumor, renal vein and renal artery benefits a lot on surgery-based renal cancer treatment. In this paper, we propose a new nnhra-unet network, and use a multi-stage framework which is based on ...

This study develops lipid nanoparticle‐encapsulated mRNA‐encoding antibodies (mRNab‐LNPs) targeting CD19, demonstrating robust anti‐CD19 antibody production in vivo. Intramuscular injection of mRNab‐LNPs reduces CD19+ B and plasma cells in lupus and rheumatoid arthritis mice, significantly alleviating histopathological changes and tissue injuries of ...

The aldehyde‐ and catechol‐modified starch (ACS) microparticle (MP) is developed by chemical modifications and freeze‐milling after calcium intercalation for highly absorbent and tissue‐adhesive properties. The ACS‐MP can be self‐gelled upon contact with biological fluids and blood on tissue surfaces, rapidly absorbing them and achieving robust wet ...

Use of biogenic nanomaterials to improve the peritoneal dialysis technique: A Translational Research Perspective [PDF]
Intraperitoneal and catheter exit site infections are the most common complications associated with prolonged peritoneal dialysis (PD) therapy used for treating the patients with end stage renal failure (ESRF). Recurrent and persistent infections often cause inflammation of the peritoneum, a condition known as infectious peritonitis and to resolve the ...

Trial emulation and survival analysis for disease incidence registers: a case study on the causal effect of pre-emptive kidney transplantation [PDF]
Numerous tutorials and research papers focus on methods in either survival analysis or causal inference, leaving common complications in medical studies unaddressed. In practice one must handle problems jointly, without the luxury of ignoring essential features of the data structure.

Multiple therapeutic modalities combined in a synergistic way that can modulate different immune axes are demonstrated potentially effective in boosting immunotherapy. A nucleic acid‐locked smart carrier (NASC) performed as an “all‐in‐one” nanoplatform is constructed for efficient eliciting chemo‐ and photothermal‐amplified immunogenic cell death to ...
