Upacicalcet: A Novel Intravenous Calcimimetic Agent for Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis With Secondary Hyperparathyroidism

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, Volume 30, Issue 3, Page 309-322, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) is a common complication in patients receiving maintenance dialysis, driven by calcium and phosphate metabolism disturbances. Calcimimetics are central to the management of SHPT by enhancing calcium‐sensing receptor sensitivity and reducing parathyroid hormone secretion.

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 1, 2 January 2026.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Association Discovery Approach in Healthcare Big Data to Identify Drug Safety and Drug Repurposing Signals

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 119, Issue 1, Page 228-240, January 2026.
Data science approaches have been increasingly implemented in healthcare big data to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of drugs. Association discovery is a data mining approach that finds potentially associated elements in high‐dimensional data. We present a novel implementation of the association discovery approach in longitudinal healthcare data ...

A Perfect Storm in Mineral Handling

open access: yesCase Reports in Nephrology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Introduction One of the commonest complications of end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is the disruption of normal mineral trafficking, with a major perturbation in the handling of calcium and phosphate. Background Here, we report a patient who presented some time ago along with his imaging, with some of the worst sequelae of these issues.
