Gut immune dysfunction through impaired innate pattern recognition receptor expression and gut microbiota dysbiosis in chronic SIV infection. [PDF]
HIV targets the gut mucosa early in infection, causing immune and epithelial barrier dysfunction and disease progression. However, gut mucosal sensing and innate immune signaling through mucosal pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) during HIV infection ...

Sevelamer-associated ischemic colitis with perforation
We present a case of an 83-year-old woman with end-stage renal disease and hyperphosphatemia treated with sevelamer carbonate, who underwent subtotal colectomy for diffuse bowel necrosis and two perforations in the transverse colon.

Response of different PTH assays to therapy with sevelamer or CaCO and active vitamin D sterols [PDF]
Amino-terminally truncated parathyroid hormone (PTH) fragments are detected to differing degrees by first- and second-generation immunometric PTH assays (PTH-IMAs), and acute changes in serum calcium affect the proportion of these fragments in ...

Emerging Effects of Sevelamer in Chronic Kidney Disease
Sevelamer, a non-absorbable anion exchange resin, is used to control hyperphosphatemia in chronic kidney disease (CKD) by binding to dietary phosphate in the gastrointestinal tract.

Effect of sevelamer on serum phosphorus levels in chronic kidney disease and hemodialysis patients; a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Introduction: Hyperphosphatemia is an independent risk factor for mortality in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Objectives: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to investigate the effect of Sevelamer on serum phosphorus levels in CKD and ...

Colonic Mass Secondary to Sevelamer-associated Rectal Ulcer
The phosphorous balance is clinically important in increasing the long-term outcomes and preventing complications of end-stage renal disease. Sevelamer is a phosphate binder used widely to regulate hyperphosphatemia.

The intestine and the kidneys : a bad marriage can be hazardous [PDF]
The concept that the intestine and chronic kidney disease influence each other, emerged only recently. The problem is multifaceted and bidirectional. On one hand, the composition of the intestinal microbiota impacts uraemic retention solute production ...
