Angiotensin II and post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis
ConclusionThis review is focused on defining which reported events would be related to the presence of this hormone in PSGN. (Source: Clinical and Experimental Nephrology)

AHA Life ’s Essential 8 and new-onset CKD: a prospective cohort study from the UK Biobank
ConclusionsAn elevated degree of CVH, as delineated by the discerning metric LE8, exhibited a pronounced and statistically significant correlation with a marked reduction in the likelihood of CKD occurrence. (Source: Clinical and Experimental Nephrology)

Survey of Japanese nephrologists' use of clinical practice guidelines for rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis
ConclusionsThe survey responses revealed how Japan's new RPGN guidelines are used in actual clinical practice. Our findings will contribute to the guidelines' dissemination and implementation. (Source: Clinical and Experimental Nephrology)

Association between the serum zinc level and nutritional status represented by the geriatric nutritional Rrisk index
ConclusionIn this post hoc analysis, the GNRI, as well as the serum albumin level, were correlated with the serum zinc level, indicating that nutritional status is an important determinant of the zinc level. Further investigations are needed to clarify the effects of nutritional status and kidney function on zinc deficiency. (Source: Clinical and Experimental Nephrology)

Relationship between the serum creatinine concentrations of preterm neonates within 24  h of birth and their mothers before delivery
ConclusionsWe have obtained an approximate equation of n-sCr  = 0.1 + m-sCr for preterm neonates. In addition, the high PW/BW ration may reduce the difference between n-sCr and m-sCr. (Source: Clinical and Experimental Nephrology)

Association of abnormalities in electrocardiography and ultrasonic echocardiography with the occurrence of cardiovascular disease in patients with advanced chronic kidney disease
ConclusionIn patients with advanced CKD, there was a significant correlation of ECG and UCG abnormalities with CVD events. Additionally, those having both types of abnormalities may have a higher risk of coronary artery disease than other groups. (Source: Clinical and Experimental Nephrology)

Duodenal microbiome in chronic kidney disease
ConclusionThe small intestinal microbiome in CKD patients is significantly altered, indicating that increased intestinal permeability and production of uremic toxin may occur in the upper small intestine of CKD patients. (Source: Clinical and Experimental Nephrology)
