Effect of storage time on the urine protein: creatinine ratio in alkaline ovine urine
(2021)The urine protein:creatinine (UPC) ratio is considered the reference method to assess proteinuria. Its diagnostic value in ovine medicine needs further elucidation. In population monitoring and/or for research purposes, ... -
Effects of Alpha-lipoic Acid Supplementation on Human Diabetic Nephropathy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
(2022)Background: Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is kidney dysfunction, which occurs due to elevated urine albumin excretion rate and reduced glomerular filtration rate. Studies on animals have shown that alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) ... -
Endovascular treatment of complex abdominal and thoracoabdominal type IV aortic aneurysms with fenestrated technology
(2017)The establishment use of fenestrated and branched devices to treat complex aortic aneurysms as a first-line management option has been previously reported. This article reviews the current literature of the use of fenestrated ... -
Epidemiology and importance of renal dysfunction in heart failure patients
(2013)Renal dysfunction (RD) is a frequent comorbid condition and a major determinant of outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF). It is likely that the etiology of RD in patients with HF is much more complex than we first ... -
Epidemiology of Hypertension among Patients on Peritoneal Dialysis Using Standardized Office and Ambulatory Blood Pressure Recordings
(2022)Introduction: Prior studies conducted in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients in the late 1990s provided considerably variable estimates of the prevalence and control of hypertension. The present study aimed to investigate ... -
Evaluation of Heller's reaction and the urine dipstick method alone or in combination to detect proteinuria in sheep
(2022)Background: Urine dipstick and Heller's reaction are easy first-line screening tests for the detection of proteinuria; however, the performance of these methods in alkaline ovine urine is largely unknown. Objective: The ... -
Evaluation of nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity of aminosidine (paromomycin)-allopurinol combination in dogs with leishmaniosis due to Leishmania infantum: A randomized, blinded, controlled study
(2019)Canine leishmaniosis due to Leishmania infantum is a widespread zoonotic disease. Although aminosidine can be an effective treatment, current therapeutic recommendations do not advocate its use, mainly due to concerns ... -
Evidence for Cardiorenal Protection with SGLT-2 Inhibitors and GLP-1 Receptor Agonists in Patients with Diabetic Kidney Disease
(2022)For almost two decades, the management of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) was based on the optimal glycemic and blood pressure control as well as on the adequate blockade of ... -
Evidence of blood and muscle redox status imbalance in experimentally induced renal insufficiency in a rabbit model
(2019)Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is accompanied by a disturbed redox homeostasis, especially in end-stage patients, which is associated with pathological complications such as anemia, atherosclerosis, and muscle atrophy. ... -
Exploring the potential of mucin 13 (MUC13) as a biomarker for carcinomas and other diseases
(2018)Mucin 13 (MUC13) is a cell surface glycoprotein aberrantly expressed in a variety of epithelial carcinomas. Thus far, the role of MUC13 in various diseases remains elusive. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first ... -
Fabry disease due to D313Y and novel GLA mutations
(2017)Objectives Our aim is to report four novel α-gal A gene (GLA) mutations resulting in Fabry disease (FD) and provide evidence of pathogenicity of the D313Y mutation regarding which contradictory data have been presented in ... -
Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) and Klotho Protein in Beta-Thalassemia
(2020)Derangements in phosphate and calcium homeostasis are common in patients with beta-thalassemia. Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is among the main hormones regulating phosphate levels, while several studies underline ... -
Fixed dilated pupils in Covid-19 ARDS patients under rocuronium, reversed after discontinuation
(2021)Neuromuscular Blockade Agents (NMBA) are used in the management of moderate and severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) patients. They have never been reported to present Central Nervous System adverse reactions. ... -
A giant inguinoscrotal bladder hernia as a cause of chronic renal failure: A rare case
(2013)INTRODUCTION: Giant inguinoscrotal bladder hernias are very rare and require surgical intervention. They usually do not cause any specific symptoms and thus, they are often misdiagnosed. If left untreated though, they might ... -
Histopathological evaluation and redox assessment in blood and kidney tissues in a rabbit contrast-induced nephrotoxicity model
(2017)Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is a leading cause of hospital-acquired acute kidney injury as a result of iodinated contrast-media use for diagnostic purposes. Pathophysiology remains unclear. In the present study ... -
Intravenous colistin use for infections due to MDR Gram-negative bacilli in critically ill paediatric patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2019)Background: Data are limited regarding the clinical effectiveness and safety of intravenous colistin for treatment of infections due to MDR Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) in paediatric ICUs (PICUs). Methods: Systematic review ... -
Intravenous Thrombolysis in Patients With Ischemic Stroke Aged ≥90 Years: A Cohort Study From the TRISP Collaboration
(2022)Background: The probability to receive intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) for treatment of acute ischemic stroke declines with increasing age and is consequently the lowest in very elderly patients. Safety concerns likely ... -
The laboratory diagnostic approach to thoracic and abdominal effusions in the dog, cat, and horse
(2019)Cases involving pleural and peritoneal effusions occur relatively frequently in clinical practice. Determining the underlying etiology in these cases relies mainly on fluid analysis. The technique used for obtaining the ... -
Lack of synergistic nephrotoxicity between vancomycin and piperacillin/tazobactam in a rat model and a confirmatory cellular model
