Correlation of Albuminuria and Renal Doppler Indices with Myocardial Function in Patients with Nephrotic Syndrome

SVU - International Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is characterized by proteinuria and edema, often stemming from minimal change disease. Secondary causes include systemic conditions and medications.

Scintigraphy and Doppler ultrasonography for the evaluation of obstructive urinary calculi

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2001
Forty-seven patients with unilateral obstructive calculi (12 males and 35 females) were submitted to 99mTc-diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) or 99mTc-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) scans for assessment of renal function.

The validity of the renal Doppler resistivity index in renal allograft infections

Renal Failure
The correlations between the intra-renal resistive index (RRI) and renal histopathology characteristics, especially in those with infected allografts, have not been sufficiently investigated in renal transplant recipients. We aimed to examine the correlation between RRI and renal allograft infection in these subjects.One hundred nine renal allograft ...

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 ...

Targeting transcription factors associated with hemoglobinopathies: Lessons from successful interventions and implications for cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the transcription factors, repressive chromatin‐modifying complexes, and epigenetic mechanisms that control fetal hemoglobin repression. Notably, many regulators of γ‐globin silencing also function in transcriptional and epigenetic networks that drive cancer, highlighting opportunities to translate advances in hemoglobinopathy ...

Retinal and Renal Microvasculature in Relation to Central Hemodynamics in 11‐Year‐Old Children Born Preterm or At Term

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Prematurity disrupts the perinatal maturation of the microvasculature and macrovasculature and confers high risk of vascular dysfunction later in life.

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...

Role of Renal Resistive Index in early detection of Diabetic Nephropathy in Type II Diabetic Patients

SVU - International Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) burdens health services; renal resistive index (RI) indicates atherosclerotic changes. Objectives: Assessing renal artery RI for early detection of DN in type II diabetes (T2DM) patients.

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
