(2016)Background and objective: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms are associated with a higher risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbation. We hypothesize that treatment with proton pump ... -
Uric acid increases cellular and humoral alloimmunity in primary human peripheral blood mononuclear cells
(2018)Aim: Hyperuricaemia is common among kidney transplant recipients and has been associated with worse graft outcome. Since episodes of acute cellular rejection and chronic humoral rejection contribute to decreased graft ...
