The prevalence of functional dyspepsia using Rome IV questionnaire among chronic kidney disease patients
Conclusion: The prevalence of FD amongst CKD patients is 14.7% with EPS the predominant subtype. Male patients, HCV patients, patients with higher CKD stages and highly impaired eGFR (low eGFR) are more probable to have FD.PMID:38655865 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2024.2344651 (Source: Renal Failure)

Shenkang injection for the treatment of acute kidney injury: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: The use of SKI in AKI patients may reduce SCr, BUN, CysC, 24-h Upro levels, and APACHE II scores in AKI patients. The incidence of adverse reactions did not differ from that in the control group. Additional rigorous clinical trials will be necessary in the future to thoroughly evaluate and establish the effectiveness of SKI in the treatment of AKI.PMID:38655870 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2024.2338566 (Source: Renal Failure)

Factors associated with post-hospitalization dialysis dependence in ECMO patients who required continuous renal replacement therapy
CONCLUSIONS: AKI requiring CRRT was associated with high mortality in patients receiving ECMO. Nonetheless, most ECMO survivors became dialysis-free before hospital discharge. Variables associated with the need for outpatient dialysis included hyperlipidemia and prolonged need for CRRT during hospitalization.PMID:38655876 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2024.2343810 (Source: Renal Failure)

Complement activation in wasp venom-induced acute kidney injury
In this study, a complement-depleted mouse model was used to investigate the role of complement in wasp venom-induced AKI. Mice were randomly categorized into control, cobra venom factor (CVF), AKI, and CVF + AKI groups. Compared to the AKI group, the CVF + AKI group showed improved pathological changes in kidneys and reduced blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels. The expression levels of renal complement 3 (C3), complement 5 (C5), complement 1q (C1q), factor B (FB), mannose-binding lectin (MBL), and C5b-9 in AKI group were upregulated compared with the control group. Conversely, the renal tissue expression levels of C3, C5, C1...

Hemodiafiltration with endogenous reinfusion for uremic toxin removal in patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis: a pilot study
CONCLUSION: HFR treatment effectively eliminates uremic toxins from the bloodstream of patients undergoing MHD, especially protein-bound toxins and large middle-molecule toxins. Additionally, it retains essential physiological compounds like albumin and branched-chain amino acids, underscoring its commendable safety profile.PMID:38632963 | PMC:PMC11028005 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2024.2338929 (Source: Renal Failure)

Immunosuppressive treatment results in patients with primary IgA nephropathy in Turkiye; the data from TSN-GOLD working group
CONCLUSION: CS can significantly improve remission in high-risk Turkish IgAN patients, despite the reliance on non-quantitative endpoints for favorable renal outcomes. Key predictors of remission include baseline proteinuria and specific histological markers. It is crucial to carefully weigh the risks and benefits of immunosuppressive therapy for these patients.PMID:38637275 | PMC:PMC11028022 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2024.2341787 (Source: Renal Failure)

Novel immune cross-talk between inflammatory bowel disease and IgA nephropathy
This study aimed to identify the optimal cross-talk genes, potential pathways, and mutual immune-infiltrating microenvironments between IBD and IgAN to elucidate the linkage between patients with IBD and IgAN. The IgAN and IBD datasets were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). Three algorithms, CIBERSORTx, ssGSEA, and xCell, were used to evaluate the similarities in the infiltrating microenvironment between the two diseases. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was implemented in the IBD dataset to identify the major immune infiltration modules, and the Boruta algorithm, RFE algorithm, and LASSO...
