Renal allograft survival in transplant recipients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis [PDF]

Journal of Nephropathology, 2020
Introduction: The frequency that idiopathic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) recurs in renal allografts is reportedly 20-50%, but the epidemiology of secondary FSGS in this setting has scarcely been addressed.

Right Versus Left Laparoscopic Donor Nephrectomy and Its Effects on Transplant Outcomes: Experience From Saudi Arabia

Journal of Transplantation
Conclusion: Laparoscopic left and right donor nephrectomies show comparable long-term outcomes with no significant differences in creatinine levels at 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years post-transplantation.

153 - Exploring the role of vaginal pressure and transversus abdominis muscle thickness in overactive bladder in women

Continence
Hypothesis / aims of study: Female stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is closely linked to the weakening of pelvic floor muscles, often due to childbirth, aging, or hormonal changes. Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) is widely recognized as an effective

Allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells as induction therapy are safe and feasible in renal allografts: pilot results of a multicenter randomized controlled trial

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2018
Background Kidneys from deceased donors are being used to meet the growing need for grafts. However, delayed graft function (DGF) and acute rejection incidences are high, leading to adverse effects on graft outcomes. Optimal induction intervention should

Donor myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) prolong allogeneic cardiac graft survival through programming of recipient myeloid cells in vivo

Scientific Reports, 2020
Solid organ transplantation is a lifesaving therapy for patients with end-organ disease. Current immunosuppression protocols are not designed to target antigen-specific alloimmunity and are uncapable of preventing chronic allograft injury.

Isolating mineralized bone and bone marrow mRNA from transiliac bone biopsies stored in a stabilizing solution: A comparative study

Bone Reports, 2022
The molecular mechanisms underlying metabolic bone diseases, including renal osteodystrophy, are poorly understood. Transcriptomics are increasingly used to characterize biological molecular networks and prove promising in identifying therapeutic targets

Transurethral laser lithotripsy using the Mitrofanoff urethral conduit for bladder stones: a case report

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2023
Background The Mitrofanoff (appendicovesicostomy) procedure is a contraindicated urinary modification that maintains urinary continence by forming a flap-valve mechanism at the site of anastomosis between the appendage and bladder wall, which is used as ...

Risk factors for recurrence following robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RAPN): a single-center retrospective study

BMC Urology
Background The recurrence rate after robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for renal cell carcinoma varies, and few established risk factors have been identified.
