The risk factors and clinical outcomes in hepatitis B seropositive and seronegative renal transplant patients
Conclusion: Individuals, independent of HBsAg status, had similar prognosis in terms of patient and graft survival, acute rejection rate, and cancer development. The absence of either pre-transplant anti-HBV medication or lifelong antiviral therapy was significantly associated with an increased risk of HBV reactivation.PMID:38498992 | DOI:10.1159/000538231 (Source: American Journal of Nephrology)

Acute and chronic kidney dysfunction and prognosis following thrombectomy for ischemic stroke
CONCLUSION: AKI is independently associated with poorer functional outcome and increased mortality at 3 months. CKD was not an independent risk factor for 3-month mortality or poor functional prognosis.PMID:38499002 | DOI:10.1159/000536493 (Source: American Journal of Nephrology)

Onco-Hypertension in Patients with Kidney Disease
This article reviews available literature and proposes a step-by-step approach to manage cancer patients with concurrent hypertension and kidney disease.KEY MESSAGES: For antineoplastic medications with known hypertensive effect, blood pressure should be checked at baseline and serially during cancer treatment. Hypertensive crisis with end-organ damage, significant proteinuria, microscopic hematuria, or unexplained acute kidney injury necessitates drug cessation until further evaluation and resolution. In patients with chronic kidney disease and cancer therapy-related hypertension, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor o...

Diagnostic yield of exome sequencing in early onset hypertensive nephropathy in adults
CONCLUSIONS: The high diagnostic yield of ES (15%) in a population of patients thought to have HN casts further doubts on the validity of the existing diagnosis criteria, including histological criteria, supposed to characterize the condition. This was especially true in patients with no African ancestry where ES positivity reached 30%.PMID:38471460 | DOI:10.1159/000538173 (Source: American Journal of Nephrology)
