Assessment of Dynamic Changes in Stressed Volume and Venous Return during Hyperdynamic Septic Shock
(2022)The present work investigated the dynamic changes in stressed volume (Vs) and other determinants of venous return using a porcine model of hyperdynamic septic shock. Septicemia was induced in 10 anesthetized swine, and ... -
Bioavailability, Efficacy and Safety of Generic Immunosuppressive Drugs for Kidney Transplantation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
(2016)Background: Concerns exist over the extrapolation of bioavailability studies of generic immunosuppressive drugs in healthy volunteers, regarding their efficacy and safety in kidney transplant recipients. We conducted a ... -
“Blame it on the Comorbidities”: A 5-Year Follow-Up of 53 Chronic Dialysis-Dependent Patients Who Underwent Cardiac Surgery
(2016)Objectives This study evaluates midterm survival rates and risk factors for mortality of chronic dialysis-dependent patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Methods Fifty-three dialysis-dependent patients (34 males, aged 67 ± ... -
A comparative analysis between proteasome and immunoproteasome inhibition in cellular and humoral alloimmunity
(2017)Triggered by the successful administration of the proteasome inhibitor bortezomib in kidney transplant recipients with acute or chronic antibody-mediated rejection, we evaluated the effect of the proteasome inhibitor ... -
The effect of anti‑HLA class I antibodies on the immunological properties of human glomerular endothelial cells and their modification by mTOR inhibition or GCN2 kinase activation
(2021)In antibody‑mediated rejection (ABMR), the graft endothelium is at the forefront of the kidney transplant against the assault from the recipient's humoral immune system, and is a target of the latter. The present study ... -
Epidemiology, impact, and treatment options of restless legs syndrome in end-stage renal disease patients: An evidence-based review
(2014)Restless legs syndrome (RLS) (or Willis-Ekbom disease) is a neurological disorder with high prevalence among the end-stage renal disease population. This is one of the most predominant types of secondary RLS, and it is ... -
A kidney transplant recipient with a perforated cheek: Oral epstein-barr virus-positive mucocutaneous ulcer complicated with an opportunistic bacterial infection
(2021)A 69-year-old female living donor kidney transplant recipient presented with right facial painful edema. The patient’s body mass index was 14 (kilograms per meter squared), and her creatinine clearance was 15 mL/min. A ... -
Molecular Aspects of Renal Immunology: Current Status and Future Perspectives
(2022)[No abstract available] -
Patterns of 1,748 Unique Human Alloimmune Responses Seen by Simple Machine Learning Algorithms
(2020)Allele specific antibody response against the polymorphic system of HLA is the allogeneic response marker determining the immunological risk for graft acceptance before and after organ transplantation and therefore routinely ... -
Primary thoracic chondrosarcoma with intra-abdominal extension in a renal transplant recipient: A case report
(2020)Primary thoracic bone tumors are relatively rare. The most common type is chondrosarcoma, accounting for up to 48% of all cases. Patients with primary thoracic bone tumors commonly present with atypical thoracic pain or a ... -
Quiz: Nine Years of Persistent, Disabling Foot Pain in a Kidney Transplant Recipient

Rituximab Administered for Recurrent Membranous Nephropathy in a Kidney Transplant Recipient Did Not Eliminate Donor-Specific Antibodies
(2022)Chronic active antibody-mediated rejection is the leading cause of kidney transplant failure. Although various immunosuppressive agents have been tested, rituximab included, presently there is no effective treatment. There ... -
A role for human renal tubular epithelial cells in direct allo-recognition by CD4+ T-cells and the effect of ischemia-reperfusion
(2021)Direct allorecognition is the earliest and most potent immune response against a kidney allograft. Currently, it is thought that passenger donor professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) are responsible. Further, many ... -
The role of genetic polymorphisms of the Renin-Angiotensin System in renal diseases: A meta-analysis
(2014)Renal failure has a complex phenotype resulting from an underlying kidney disease as well as environmental and genetic factors. In the present study we performed a systematic review and meta-analyses to evaluate the ... -
A systematic review and meta-analysis of pharmacogenetic studies in patients with chronic kidney disease
(2021)Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an important global public health problem due to its high prevalence and morbidity. Although the treatment of nephrology patients has changed considerably, ineffectiveness and side effects ... -
