Diabetic Kidney Disease Without Albuminuria: A New Entity in Diabetic Nephropathy
Iran J Kidney Dis. 2024 Jan;1(1):1-8.ABSTRACTNon-albuminuric diabetic kidney disease (NA-DKD) is characterized by progressive loss of kidney function with an annual loss of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) more than 3 mL/ min/ 1.73m2 per year. NA-DKD is also associated with the late manifestation of diabetic kidney disease, characterized by reduced eGFR (< 60 mL/min/ 1.73m2), in the absence of albuminuria (urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio [UACR] less than 30 mg/g. The typical glomerular changes seen in diabetic nephropathy are less frequently observed in normoalbuminuric patients, while they predominantly sh...

The Outcome of Pauci-immune Crescentic Glomerulonephritis and Its Prognostic Factors; A single Center Case Series
CONCLUSION: In our study, a high percentage of patients with pauciimmune crescentic GN developed ESKD. Low first GFR and high chronicity in biopsy were associated with lower kidney survival. Failure to administer cyclophosphamide in seemingly limited or advanced cases, together with late referral may have led to poor prognosis.

Inhibition of Pyroptosis of Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells by Puerarin via Regulation of lncRNA NEAT1 Ameliorating Chronic Renal Failure
CONCLUSION: Puerarin inhibits pyroptosis and inflammation by regulating lncRNA NEAT1, thereby ameliorating CKD. DOI: 10.52547/ijkd.7565.PMID:38308547 (Source: Iranian Journal of Kidney Diseases)

Association of Anthropometric Indices with Albumin to Creatinine Ratio and Glomerular Filtration Rate, as Indices of CKD: A Population-based Study
CONCLUSION: High WHtR and BMI probably are associated with CKD in male. WHR and WC have no relation to the occurrence of CKD. There are no significant changes in regard to ACR and eGFR. DOI: 10.52547/ijkd.7685.PMID:38308548 (Source: Iranian Journal of Kidney Diseases)

Clinical Efficacy and Long-term Prognosis of High Flux Hemodialysis Combined with Different Frequency Hemodiafiltration in the Treatment of Middle-Aged and Elderly Patients with Uremia
CONCLUSION: 1 week/time HDF combined with HFHD can more effectively eliminate the vascular related toxins in middle-aged and elderly patients with uremia, improve their nutritional status, treatment effect, and long-term prognosis.

Promotion of Inflammation, Apoptosis, and Inhibition of Autophagy by Overexpression of lncRNA SNHG12 in Acute Kidney Injury
CONCLUSION: SNHG12 promotes inflammation, apoptosis, and autophagy by targeting the miR-1270/TUBB axis in AKI. DOI: 10.52547/ijkd.7903.PMID:38308550 (Source: Iranian Journal of Kidney Diseases)

Prognosis of Peritoneal Dialysis Patients with Different Peritoneal Transport Characteristics: A Retrospective Cohort Study
CONCLUSION: High peritoneal transport status is an independent risk factor for death. High CCI and low albumin are determinants of baseline high peritoneal transport. To avoid development of a high transport state, serum albumin should be increased to more than 30 g/L. DOI: 10.52547/ijkd.7617.PMID:38308551 (Source: Iranian Journal of Kidney Diseases)
