Dinucleoside polyphosphates : newly detected uraemic compounds with an impact on leucocyte oxidative burst [PDF]
Background. Dinucleoside polyphosphates (NpnN) have pathophysiologic roles in cardiovascular disease and are newly detected uraemic retention solutes. They were retrieved in human plasma, tissues and cells.

Infection frequently triggers thrombotic microangiopathy in patients with preexisting risk factors : a single-institution experience [PDF]
Thrombotic microangiopathies are rare conditions characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, microthrombi, and multiorgan insult. The disorders, which include hemolytic uremic syndrome and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, are often acute and ...

Draft genome sequences of Escherichia coli O157: H7 strains Rafaela_II (clade 8) and 7.1_Anguil (clade 6) from cattle in Argentina [PDF]
Escherichia coli O157:H7 is a major etiologic agent of diseases in humans that cause diarrhea, hemorrhagic colitis, and hemolytic-uremic syndrome. Here, we report the draft genome sequences of two strains isolated from cattle that had high levels of ...

Uremic Toxins and Vascular Dysfunction [PDF]
Vascular dysfunction is an essential element found in many cardiovascular pathologies and in pathologies that have a cardiovascular impact such as chronic kidney disease (CKD). Alteration of vasomotricity is due to an imbalance between the production of relaxing and contracting factors. In addition to becoming a determining factor in pathophysiological

Uremic Toxins and Atrial Fibrillation: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent arrhythmia in the general population. There is a close association between chronic kidney disease (CKD) and AF.

In vitro and in vivo TNFa synthesis modulation by methylguanidine, an uremic catabolyte [PDF]
Original article can be found at: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/00243205 Copyright Elsevier Inc.We have investigated whether methylguanidine (MG), an uremic toxin, modulates the expression of the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and ...

Single needle hemodialysis : is the past the future? [PDF]
Whereas the usual way to gain access to the vascular bed for hemodialysis is by inserting two needles, an alternative option based on the introduction of only one needle has been available for several decades.

The removal of uremic toxins [PDF]
Three major groups of uremic solutes can be characterized: the small water-soluble compounds, the middle molecules, and the protein-bound compounds. Whereas small water-soluble compounds are quite easily removed by conventional hemodialysis, this is not the case for many other molecules with different physicochemical characteristics.
