Acute kidney injury in a cardiac ICU in a middle-income country: risk factors and outcomes from Thailand

BMC Nephrology
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. However, data on AKI in coronary care units (CCU) remain limited, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.

Timing of initiation of renal-replacement therapy in acute kidney injury [PDF]

, 2020
Background Acute kidney injury is common in critically ill patients, many of whom receive renal-replacement therapy. However, the most effective timing for the initiation of such therapy remains uncertain. Methods We conducted a multinational, randomized,

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Association Between Individualized Education for Kidney Replacement Therapy Modality Selection and Peritoneal Dialysis Initiation: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Potential sex differences in longitudinal chest-radiograph signatures preceding heart failure in peritoneal dialysis patients

Renal Replacement Therapy
Background Heart failure (HF) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among individuals with kidney failure with replacement therapy (KFRT). Although biological sex influences cardiovascular disease, it remains unclear whether and how longitudinal ...

Differences between physicians in the likelihood of referral and acceptance of elderly patients for dialysis-influence of age and comorbidity [PDF]

, 2007
BACKGROUND: Incidence of dialysis in elderly patients in the Netherlands is low compared to other countries. This study aims to assess the impact of patients' age and comorbidity on the likelihood of referral and acceptance of patients for dialysis and ...

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.
