Review: The role of microRNAs in kidney diseaseABSTRACT MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non‐coding RNAs that modulate physiological and pathological processes by inhibiting target gene expression via blockade of protein translation or by inducing mRNA degradation. These miRNAs potentially regulate the expression of thousands of proteins. As a result, miRNAs have emerged rapidly as a major new area of biomedical res... ...

Medicinal herbal extracts – renal friend or foe? Part one: The toxicities of medicinal herbsSUMMARY: In recent years, an increasing percentage of people from industrialized countries have been using complementary and alternative medicines (CAM). This, combined with numerous warnings regarding the potential toxicity of these therapies, suggests the need for practitioners to keep abreast of the reported incidence of renal toxicity caused by the ingestion of ... ...

Mechanism of valproic acid‐induced Fanconi syndrome involves mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress in rat kidneyAbstract Aim Drug‐induced kidney proximal tubular injury and renal failure (Fanconi syndrome; FS) is a clinical complication. Valproic acid (VPA) is among the FS‐inducing drugs. The current investigation was designed to evaluate the role of mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress in VPA‐induced renal injury. ...

Combining intra‐dialytic exercise and nutritional supplementation in malnourished older haemodialysis patients: Towards better quality of life and autonomyAbstract Protein‐energy wasting (PEW), defined as a loss of body protein mass and fuel reserves, is a powerful predictor of adverse outcomes in haemodialysis (HD) patients. Robust arguments suggest that intra‐dialytic exercise, combined with oral/parenteral nutrition, enhances the effect of nutritional interventions in HD patients. This pilot...

Myeloperoxidase anti‐neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody affinity is associated with the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps in the kidney and vasculitis activity in myeloperoxidase anti‐neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody‐associated microscopic polyangiitisAbstract Anti‐neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) is associated with small‐vessel vasculitis particularly in the kidneys and can induce the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) from primed neutrophils. Recently we have reported that the induction of NETs correlates with ANCA affinity for myeloperoxidase (MPO) and disease activity in patients with MP... ...

Review: Membranes for haemodialysisABSTRACT Haemodialysis, by design, uses a semipermeable membrane to separate blood from dialysate. The qualities of this membrane determine the nature of the ‘traffic’ between the blood and dialysate. In this sense, the qualities of the membrane determine what size molecules move from one compartment to the other, the amount and rate at which they might move and the... ...

Relationship between sleep complaints and proinflammatory cytokines in haemodialysis patientsSUMMARY: Background: Sleep complaints are common in end‐stage renal disease. We aimed to investigate the relationship between sleep‐related complaints and inflammatory cytokines in haemodialysis (HD) patients, and also the effects of HD on sleep patterns and cytokine levels.Methods: Predialysis serum i...

Epidemiology of chronic kidney disease in Australian general practice: National Prescribing Service MedicineWise MedicineInsight datasetABSTRACT Aim To describe sociodemographic characteristics and comorbidities of a large cohort of Australian general practice‐based patients identified as having chronic kidney disease (CKD), using data from National Prescribing Service (NPS) MedicineWise's MedicineInsight dataset, and compare this dataset to the 2011–2012 Australian...

Interpreting incidence trends for treated end‐stage renal disease: Implications for evaluating disease control in AustraliaSUMMARY: Background: Five sources of change modify trends in incidence of treated end‐stage renal disease (ESRD): (i) demography; (ii) disease control, comprising prevention and treatment of progressive kidney disease; (iii) competing risks, which encompass dying from untreated uraemia or non‐renal comorbidity; (iv) lead‐time bias; and (v) cl...

Kidney damage after renal ablation is worsened in endothelial nitric oxide synthase (−/−) mice and improved by combined administration of L‐arginine and antioxidantsSUMMARY: Aim Reduction in nitric oxide (NO) levels during kidney failure has been related to the reaction of NO with superoxide anions to yield peroxynitrite which possesses the biological activity responsible for renal damage. However, stimulation of the NO pathway ameliorates the progression of kidney failure. Thus, it is unclear whether NO...
