Low‐density lipoprotein subfraction profiles in dialysis patientsNephrology - Tập 3 Số 2 - Trang 169-177 - 1997
Andrew Bofinger, Justin Westhuyzen, David Saltissi, Colleen Morgan, Helen Healy
Summary: Uraemic dyslipidaemia is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease in end‐stage renal failure patients. In patients without renal failure, high levels and qualitative abnormalities of low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) are known to be atherogenic. Recently, LDL subfraction analysis has associated premature coronary artery disease with a high prevalence of s...... hiện toàn bộ
Review: Membranes for haemodialysisNephrology - Tập 15 Số 4 - Trang 381-385 - 2010
Peter G. Kerr, Louis Huang
ABSTRACTHaemodialysis, 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...... hiện toàn bộ
Incidence of end‐stage renal disease in overseas‐born, compared with Australian‐born, non‐indigenous AustraliansNephrology - Tập 9 Số 4 - Trang 247-252 - 2004
John H. Stewart, Margaret McCredie, Stephen McDonald
SUMMARY:Background: Barriers to immigration from non‐European sources were relaxed in the 1970s. As a result, more Australians are now of Middle Eastern, Asian or Pacific Islander origin, rather than British or European. Currently, overseas‐born persons comprise one‐third of non‐indigenous Australians with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD).... hiện toàn bộ
Osteocalcin as a biochemical marker of bone turnoverNephrology - Tập 4 Số 5-6 - Trang 339-346 - 1998
Dorota Polak−Jonkisz, Danuta Zwołińska
SUMMARY: Osteocalcin is a calcium‐binding bone protein whose blood concentrations are correlated with bone synthesis and resorption. the level of blood osteocalcin is determined by several factors. Laboratory monitoring of blood osteocalcin is helpful in patient diagnosis and managment. This study presents the known biosynthesis of osteocalcin and its role as an ind...

Peptide 17 alleviates early hypertensive renal injury by regulating the Hippo/YAP signalling pathwayNephrology - Tập 27 Số 8 - Trang 712-723 - 2022
San‐Bin Xu, Bin Xu, Zhi‐Heng Ma, Mei‐Qin Huang, Z.Q. GAO, Jian‐Li Ni
AbstractAimHypertensive nephropathy is embodied by kidney tissue fibrosis and glomerular sclerosis, as well as renal inflammation. The Hippo/YAP (yes‐associated protein, YAP) axis has been reported to promote inflammation and fibrosis and may participate in the pathogenesis of heart, vascular and renal injuries. However, the role ...... hiện toàn bộ
