Comprehensive analysis of cuproptosis-related genes in immune infiltration and development of a novel diagnostic model for acute kidney injury
CONCLUSION: This study elucidated the role of cuproptosis in AKI and revealed the association between CRGs and infiltrated immune cells through comprehensive bioinformatic techniques. The six-gene cuproptosis-related signature exhibited remarkable predictive efficiency for AKI.PMID:38538321 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2024.2325035 (Source: Renal Failure)

Factors Associated With Respiratory Failure After Open Ventral Hernia Repair: An Evaluation of the NSQIP Database
Am Surg. 2024 Mar 24:31348241241731. doi: 10.1177/00031348241241731. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAn analysis of ACS-NSQIP open ventral hernia repair (OVHR) data (2017-2019) was performed. Respiratory failure (RF) occurred in 643 patients (1%) and not in 63,213 (99%) (nRF). Respiratory failure patients were older (63.7 vs 57 years, P < .001) and more comorbid: insulin-dependent diabetes (14.7% vs 5.8%, P < .001), COPD (19.4% vs 5.2%, P < .001), BMI (36.0 vs 32.8, P < .001), and current tobacco use (24.9% vs 17.6%, P < .001). Respiratory failure patients had greater ASA scores (ASA 3: 63.3% vs 47.8%, P < ...

Protective effect of cilostazol on vascular injury in rats with acute ischemic stroke complicated with chronic renal failure
In conclusion, our results confirmed that cilostazol exerted a protective effect on the brain and kidney function, specifically in vascular injury, oxidative stress, cell apoptosis, cell autophagy, and inflammation response in CRF combined with stroke rats which were related to the upregulation of JAK/STAT3/mTOR signal pathway.SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s43188-023-00217-w.PMID:38525134 | PMC:PMC10959867 | DOI:10.1007/s43188-023-00217-w (Source: Cell Research)

RfxCas13d-mediated inhibition of < em > Circ1647 < /em > alleviates renal fibrosis via PI3K/AKT signaling pathway
CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that Circ1647 plays a significant role in renal fibrosis by mediating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. RfxCas13d-mediated inhibition of Circ1647 may serve as a therapeutic target for renal fibrosis in CKD.PMID:38527916 | DOI:10.1080/0886022X.2024.2331612 (Source: Renal Failure)
