Abstract Chronic volume overload is a major risk factor of hypertension and mortality in chronic dialysis patients. However, the mechanisms responsible for hypertension are unclear. We studied 32 patients (age 23–68 years, 19 females) in chronic hemodiafiltration classified by their interdialytic ambulatory blood pressure (idABP, mmHg) in three groups:

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes
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 ...

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
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.

ABSTRACT Divalent cations such as calcium and ferrous sulfate interfere with the absorption of levothyroxine due to complexing. To our knowledge, the effects of magnesium on levothyroxine absorption have never been studied. The open‐label cross‐over pharmacokinetic study was conducted in 15 healthy, euthyroid adults.

Development of Deferoxamine‐Functionalized Cyclodextrin Polymer for Targeted Iron Chelation
The cyclodextrin polymer is conjugated with 35 deferoxamine units and can form iron(III) complexes. The polymer exhibits significantly lower antiproliferative activity than free deferoxamine. The cyclodextrin polymer with multiple deferoxamine units may present a promising strategy for improving the efficacy of iron chelation therapies.
