Role of urine sediment cytology in the diagnosis of renal disorders in comparison with biochemical and histopathological findings [PDF]
Background:The functional reserve of the kidney being large, serum biochemical parameters do not show abnormality until late. The need to recognize minimal damage in the kidneys is hence valuable. Urine sediment examination is cost effective, time saving

Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality
In the face of a critical shortage of human donor kidneys for end‐stage renal disease patients, porcine kidney xenotransplantation has emerged as a viable solution. This field has navigated major hurdles, including immune rejection, physiological incompatibilities, potential biomechanical differences and the risk of cross‐species infection. To overcome

Animal models of idiopathic membranous nephropathy: Recent advances and future perspectives
This review focuses on the evolution of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) animal models from traditional approaches (Heymann nephritis, C‐BSA, APA) to antigen‐specific models (PLA2R, THSD7A), critically evaluating their advances and limitations in replicating human IMN pathology.
