Adverse Renal Effects of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors: A Narrative Review<b><i>Background:</i></b> Cancer immunotherapy, such as anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) and anti-programmed death 1 (PD-1), has revolutionized the treatment of malignancies by engaging the patient's own immune system against the tumor rather than targeting the cancer directly. These therapies have demonstrated a significant benefit in the t... ... hiện toàn bộ

Hepatitis B Virus-Associated NephropathyA direct causal association between hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and the development of nephropathy remains controversial. Epidemiological studies have shown that chronic carriage of HBV in some individuals (particularly children) leads to the development of nephrotic syndrome with a strong male predominance, the commonest histological type being membranous nephropathy (MN). Spontaneo... ... hiện toàn bộ

Assessment of the Efficacy and Safety of Intravenous Conivaptan in Euvolemic and Hypervolemic Hyponatremia<i>Background:</i> Most cases of hyponatremia – serum sodium concentration ([Na<sup>+</sup>]) <135 mEq/l (<135 m<i>M</i>) – are associated with an elevated plasma arginine vasopressin level. This study investigated the efficacy and tolerability of intravenous conivaptan (YM087), a vasopressin V<sub>1A</sub>/V<sub>2</sub>-rec... ... hiện toàn bộ

Calcineurin Inhibitor Nephrotoxicity: A Review and Perspective of the Evidence<b><i>Background:</i></b> There is no doubt that acute calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) nephrotoxicity exists; however, chronic CNI nephrotoxicity is questionable at best. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> We reviewed the literature to identify original articles related to the use of CNIs in renal and nonrenal solid organ transplantation in order to examine ... ... hiện toàn bộ

Indoxyl Sulfate Inhibits Nitric Oxide Production and Cell Viability by Inducing Oxidative Stress in Vascular Endothelial Cells<i>Background/Aim:</i> Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of mortality in chronic kidney disease patients. Oxidative stress and nitric oxide (NO) deficiency play an important role in vascular endothelial cell dysfunction in chronic kidney disease. To determine if the uremic toxin indoxyl sulfate (IS) induces oxidative stress and inhibits NO production and cell viability in... ... hiện toàn bộ

Predictors of Hyperkalemia Risk following Hypertension Control with Aldosterone Blockade<i>Background:</i> Aldosterone antagonists have proven efficacy for management of resistant hypertension and proteinuria reduction; however, they are not widely used due to risk of hyperkalemia. This study assesses the risk factors for hyperkalemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and resistant hypertension whose blood pressure (BP) is reduced to a guideline goal. ... ... hiện toàn bộ

Renal Biopsy in 2015 - From Epidemiology to Evidence-Based Indications<b><i>Background:</i></b> Although the number of patients reaching end-stage kidney disease without a biopsy-proven diagnosis is increasing, the utility of renal biopsy is still an object of debate. We analyzed epidemiological data and the main indications for renal biopsy with a systematic, evidence-based review at current literature. <b><i>Summary:<... ... hiện toàn bộ

Serum Potassium, End-Stage Renal Disease and Mortality in Chronic Kidney Disease<b><i>Background/Aims:</i></b> Hypokalemia and hyperkalemia are often noted in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, but their impact on mortality and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is less well understood. We aimed at studying the associations between potassium disorders, and mortality and progression to ESRD in a CKD population. <b><i>Methods:</i&g... ... hiện toàn bộ
