Accidental acute metabolic acidosis due to inappropriate selection of bicarbonate concentrate
(2005)Haemodialysis using a bicarbonate concentrate (bicarbonate dialysis) is the treatment modality of choice for correction of metabolic acidosis in chronic renal failure. However, improper ratios of acid and bicarbonate ... -
Acute renal failure after antibiotic-impregnated bone cement treatment of an infected total knee arthroplasty
(2008)Antibiotic-impregnated cement is used frequently in revision procedures of infected total hip and knee arthroplasties. Local antibiotic treatment is as effective as the use of systemic antibiotics. The purpose of such ... -
Acute renal failure in the elderly: particular characteristics
(2006)Elderly individuals comprise the fastest growing patient population group and acute renal failure (ARF) is quite common among them, although exact numbers are not known. We reviewed the literature with regards to the ... -
Acute Renal Failure: A Rare Presentation of Hypothyroidism
(2009)Thyroid hormones affect the function of almost every body organ, and thyroid dysfunction produces a wide range of metabolic disturbances. Severe hypothyroidism is associated with significant effects on the kidney. The ... -
Adaptation of renal function in heart failure
(2006)Congestive heart failure is the only major cardiovascular disease with an increasing incidence and prevalence in industrialized countries. Despite considerable progress in the clinical management of heart failure during ... -
Aeromonas hydrophila as a causative organism in peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis: case report and review of the literature
(2011)Most episodes of peritoneal dialysis (PD)-related peritonitis could be attributed to a single organism, but in almost 10% of peritonitis episodes multiple organisms are identified. Polymicrobial peritonitis is often related ... -
Amiloride-sensitive sodium channels on the parietal human peritoneum: Evidence by ussing-type chamber experiments
(2007)The mesothelium is part of the peritoneal water and ion transport barrier essential for peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatment and has a central role in the pathogenesis of peritoneal fibrosis and ultrafiltration failure ... -
AR CAG repeat length is not associated with serum gonadal steroids and lipid levels in healthy men
(2009)P>Cardiovascular risk factors seem to be affected by androgens, which exert their action through the androgen receptor (AR). Androgenic action correlates inversely with a polymorphic CAG repeat region in the AR gene encoding ... -
Arginase type I as a marker of coronary heart disease in hemodialysis patients
(2011)Cardiovascular disease, and mainly coronary heart disease (CHD), is the leading cause of death in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Non-traditional risk factors may play an important role in this population. Arginase is known ... -
Assessment of the Relative Effectiveness and Tolerability of Treatments of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Network Meta-analysis
(2014)Purpose: The relative effectiveness and tolerability of treatments for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is not well understood because few randomized, controlled trials (RCTs) have compared these treatments directly. The ... -
Association between the GLUT1 gene polymorphism and the risk of diabetic nephropathy: a meta-analysis
(2005)The association between diabetic nephropathy (DN) and the XbaI polymorphism in the GLUT1 gene has been investigated in several case-control studies. These studies rendered contradictory results: the allele XbalphaI(-) was ... -
Association Between the Interleukin-1 beta Gene (IL1B) C-511T Polymorphism and the Risk of Diabetic Nephropathy in Type 2 Diabetes: A Candidate-Gene Association Study
(2014)Variants of the interleukin-1 beta gene (IL1B) are implicated in the development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). The present candidate-gene association study was conducted to investigate the association between the IL1B ... -
A bioequivalence study of Levothyroxine tablets versus an oral Levothyroxine solution in healthy volunteers
(2006)Probably for genetic reasons a substantial part of the Greek population requires Levothyroxine treatment. Since commercially available Levothyroxine was first marketed, the manufacture and storage of the drug in tablet ...
