Variation in performing kidney biopsy amongst nephrologists in the Asia-Pacific region: A multinational survey
CONCLUSION: Our study shows that despite the availability of training and access to USG, a significant number of nephrologists are not performing KB in the APR. Similar to the trends observed in Western countries, the observed pattern in the APR could be due to lack of time, less incentive, hospital policy, or interest of nephrologists in other aspects of intervention nephrology.PMID:38156781 | DOI:10.5414/CN111203 (Source: Clinical Nephrology)

Tubule dysfunction and injury and future risk of sepsis-associated acute kidney injury
CONCLUSION: Among community participants, tubule function and injury markers at times of health were not independently associated with future risk of septic AKI.PMID:38156782 | DOI:10.5414/CN111264 (Source: Clinical Nephrology)

Risk factors for postoperative acute kidney injury after major abdominal surgery
CONCLUSION: Identification of independent predictors of AKI after MAS such as the number of transfusions during surgery, sepsis, pneumonia, and the need for vasoactive drug therapy could help prevent AKI and lower the probability of lethal outcomes after MAS.PMID:38156780 | DOI:10.5414/CN111094 (Source: Clinical Nephrology)

Characteristics of innate and adaptive immune disorder in IgA nephropathy based on integrated bioinformatics
CONCLUSION: In addition to abnormalities in the adaptive immune response, macrophages M1/M2 and innate immune disorder may participate in IgAN pathogenesis. PON2 may become the feasible targets for further investigation of IgAN.PMID:38126195 | DOI:10.5414/CN111023 (Source: Clinical Nephrology)

A retrospective study of mineral and bone disorder in kidney transplant recipients: Single-center experience
CONCLUSION: MBD persisted after kidney transplantation. Decreased bone mass was associated with persistent hyperparathyroidism, acute rejection history, low BMI, advanced age, and menopause. Dynamic monitoring of bone metabolism index and BMD helps to assess MBD after kidney transplantation.PMID:38126728 | DOI:10.5414/CN111234 (Source: Clinical Nephrology)
