Genetic association study of < em > TERT < /em > gene variants with chronic kidney disease susceptibility in the Chinese population
This study aimed to investigate the correlation between TERT gene variants and susceptibility to CKD in the Chinese population. A total of 507 patients with CKD and 510 healthy controls were recruited for this case-control study. Four candidate loci were identified using the MassARRAY platform. Logistic regression analysis was employed to assess the association between TERT gene variants and the risk of CKD. The false positive reporting probability (FPRP) method was utilized to evaluate the validity of statistically significant associations. The multifactorial dimensionality reduction (MDR) method was used to evaluate the ...

Serum vitamin C levels and their correlation with chronic kidney disease in adults: a nationwide study
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings reveal a correlation between elevated serum vitamin C levels and a decreased risk of developing albuminuria, low eGFR, and CKD. Appropriately increasing serum vitamin C levels may hold promise in protecting renal function, particularly among older individuals.PMID:38186336 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2023.2298079 (Source: Renal Failure)

Comparison of ultrasound features and lesion sites in dysfunctional arteriovenous fistula
This study aimed to investigate ultrasound features of arteriovenous fistula stenosis and their relationship with primary patency after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (post-intervention primary patency) and compare this classification with that using lesion location. Hemodialysis patients who underwent ultrasound-guided percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for arteriovenous fistula stenosis from July 2020 to December 2021 were retrospectively evaluated. Lesions (excluding inflow arteries) were categorized into five groups based on ultrasound features, and the clinical characteristics and risk factors affecting the ...

Canagliflozin attenuates kidney injury, gut-derived toxins, and gut microbiota imbalance in high-salt diet-fed Dahl salt-sensitive rats
CONCLUSION: Canagliflozin may change the production of metabolites and reduce the level of uremic toxins in the blood circulation by reconstructing the intestinal flora of DSS rats fed a high-salt diet, ultimately alleviating oxidative stress and renal injury.PMID:38189082 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2023.2300314 (Source: Renal Failure)

Therapeutic effects of acupuncture therapy for kidney function and common symptoms in patients with chronic kidney disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Conclusions: Acupuncture is an effective and safe treatment for improving kidney function and relieving pruritic symptoms in patients with CKD, but the very low evidence may limit this conclusion. The TSA suggests that high-quality trials are needed to validate the efficacy of acupuncture therapy.PMID:38189090 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2023.2301504 (Source: Renal Failure)

CXC chemokine receptor 7 ameliorates renal fibrosis by inhibiting β-catenin signaling and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in tubular epithelial cells
In this study, we investigated the potential role of CXCR7 in mediating renal fibrosis. CXCR7 expression is decreased in unilateral ischemia-reperfusion injury (UIRI) and unilateral ureteral obstruction mouse models. Furthermore, CXCR7 was specifically expressed primarily in the Lotus Tetragonolobus Lectin-expressing segment of tubules, was slightly expressed in the peanut agglutinin-expressing segment, and was barely expressed in the Dolichos biflorus agglutinin-expressing segment. Administration of pFlag-CXCR7, an overexpression plasmid for CXCR7, significantly inhibited the activation of β-catenin signaling and protect...

The value of bioimpedance analysis in the assessment of hydration and nutritional status in children on chronic peritoneal dialysis
Ren Fail. 2024 Dec;46(1):2301531. doi: 10.1080/0886022X.2023.2301531. Epub 2024 Jan 8.ABSTRACTBioimpedance analysis (BIA)-body composition monitoring (BCM) has been used to evaluate the hydration and nutritional status of adults and children on dialysis. However, its clinical application still has challenges, so further exploration is valuable. We used BIA-BCM to evaluate the hydration and nutritional status of children undergoing chronic peritoneal dialysis from 1 July 2021 to 31 December 2022 in the Children's Hospital of Fudan University to explore the clinical value of this method. A total of 84 children on chronic per...
