Sjögren’s syndrome and hepatitis C virus infection presenting as hypokalemic quadriparesis: A case report

Journal of International Medical Research
Distal renal tubular acidosis can present with acute-onset quadriparesis caused by severe hypokalemia, and primary Sjögren’s syndrome is a significant potential cause of distal renal tubular acidosis in such patients.

CD93—An emerging vascular target in cancer therapy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract CD93 is a single‐pass transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the C‐type lectin domain group XIV family of proteins. Although it is known to be expressed in other cell types, namely, in some subsets of immune cells, CD93 is primarily expressed on endothelial cells, where it acts as a crucial regulator of angiogenesis.

Distal Renal Tubular Acidosis, Hypokalemic Paralysis, Nephrocalcinosis, Primary Hypothyroidism, Growth Retardation, Osteomalacia and Osteoporosis Leading to Pathological Fracture: A Case Report

Oman Medical Journal, 2011
Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) is a constellation of syndromes arising from different derangements of tubular acid transport. Recent advances in the biology of urinary acidification have allowed us to discern various molecular mechanisms responsible for ...

A child with distal (type 1) renal tubular acidosis presenting with progressive gross motor developmental regression and acute paralysis

BMC Research Notes, 2017
Background Distal (Type 1) renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is characterized by inability to secrete hydrogen irons from the distal tubule. The aetiology of dRTA is diverse and can be either inherited or acquired.

Phase IIB, Randomized, Double‐Blind, Placebo‐Controlled Clinical Trial of Intravenous Defibrotide for the Prevention and Treatment of Respiratory Distress and Cytokine Release Syndrome in COVID‐19

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Endothelial dysfunction is key in COVID‐19 pathogenesis. This randomized, double‐blind phase IIb trial investigated continuous intravenous infusion of defibrotide in patients hospitalized with SARS‐CoV‐2 infection and respiratory failure.

Anaesthetic management of a horse with acute kidney injury

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Anaesthetic management of animals with acute kidney injuries (AKI) is complex and poses considerable risk. There are no publications describing management of anaesthetised horses with AKI. Perioperative and anaesthetic care of a Thoroughbred filly presented with traumatic injuries and subsequent AKI is described.

Effect of Two Therapeutic Renal Diets on Hormonal and Regulatory Pathways Affecting Calcium Homeostasis in Cats With Early‐Stage Chronic Kidney Disease

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a known risk factor for hypercalcemia in cats. Phosphate‐restricted diets have also been implicated in causing hypercalcemia, in part because phosphate restriction increases the Ca:P ratio. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of two different therapeutic renal foods on ionized (iCa ...

Renal tubular acidosis with hyperchloremic acidosis: harmless with a sting? [PDF]

Critical Care, 2015
Brunner et al. [1] showed a higher than previously described prevalence of renal tubular acidosis (RTA) in critically ill patients with hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis (HMA). They elegantly demonstrated that this condition often remains unrecognized owing to the simultaneous presence of metabolic alkalosis, mainly attributed to low plasma albumin ...
