Description of serum symmetric dimethylarginine concentration and of urinary SDS-AGE pattern in dogs with ACTH dependent...

Serum symmetric dimethylarginine (SDMA) and patterns of urinary protein separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate agarose gel electrophoresis (SDS-AGE) have not been investigated as biomarkers in dogs with ACTH -dependent hyperadrenocorticism (ADHAC). This exploratory prospective study aimed to evaluate SDMA, serum creatinine (sCR), and SDS-AGE in dogs w...

Renal Function After CT-Guided Cryoablation of Small Renal Tumours in Patients with Solitary Kidney: An Analysis of Euro...

Published in Cardiovascular and interventional radiology

Treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in patients with solitary kidneys remains challenging. The purpose of this multicentre cohort study was to explore how renal function is affected by percutaneous image-guided cryoablation in patients with solitary kidneys. Data from the European Registry for Renal Cryoablation database were extracted on patie...

Renal and cardiac effects of the PDE9 inhibitor BAY 73-6691 in 5/6 nephrectomized rats.

Published in Pflugers Archiv : European journal of physiology

It has been suggested that the novel selective phosphodiesterase 9 (PDE9) inhibitor may improve cardiac and renal function by blocking 3',5'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) degradation. 5/6 nephrectomized (5/6Nx) rats were used to investigate the effects of the PDE9 inhibitor (BAY 73-6691) on the heart and kidney. Two doses of BAY 73-6691 (1 ...

Alteration of the maximal renal water excretion capacity with kidney function and age in human.

Published in International urology and nephrology

The kidney's capability to concentrate and dilute urine is crucial to maintaining body fluid compartments and plasma osmolality. Advanced age and chronic kidney disease (CKD) result in decreased maximal urine concentration. Less is known regarding urine dilution ability. The primary purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between ma...

Serum phosphorus concentration and its association with the degree and pattern of intracranial arterial calcification.

Published in Nutrition, metabolism, and cardiovascular diseases : NMCD

The aim of this study was to determine whether the serum phosphorus concentrations (SPC) are associated with the degree and pattern of intracranial arterial calcification (IAC) in patients with normal renal function or mild-moderate renal impairment. A total of 513 patients were enrolled in this study. The degree of IAC measured by IAC scores was e...

Ultra-long-term efficacy and safety of catheter-based renal denervation in resistant hypertension: 10-year follow-up out...

Published in Clinical research in cardiology : official journal of the German Cardiac Society

Randomized sham-controlled trials have confirmed the efficacy and safety of catheter-based renal denervation in hypertension. Data on the very long-term effects of renal denervation are scarce. This study evaluates the 10-year safety and efficacy of renal denervation in resistant hypertension. This prospective single-center study included patients ...

Dexmedetomidine and acute kidney injury after non-cardiac surgery: A meta-analysis with trial sequential analysis.

Published in Anaesthesia, critical care & pain medicine

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after surgery and is associated with detrimental outcomes. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated perioperative dexmedetomidine on AKI and renal function after non-cardiac surgery. PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched until August 2023 for randomised trials compa...

Urinary Marker Profiles in Heart Failure with Reduced Versus Preserved Ejection Fraction.

Published in Journal of cardiovascular translational research

Recent data suggest different causes of renal dysfunction between heart failure with reduced (HFrEF) versus preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We therefore studied a wide range of urinary markers reflecting different nephron segments in heart failure patients. In 2070, in chronic heart failure patients, we measured several established and upcomin...
