Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the leading cause of ESRD. We conducted an open-label, prospective, randomized trial to determine whether pentoxifylline (PTF), which reduces albuminuria, in addition renin-angiotensin system (RAS) blockade, can slow progression renal patients with type 2 diabetes and stages 3–4 CKD. Participants were assigned receive PTF (1200 mg/d) (n=82) or a control group (n=87) for years. All received similar doses RAS inhibitors. At study end, eGFR had decreased by...
Nosocomial transmission of hepatitis C virus (HCV) in hemodialysis (HD) units is well established. In with a high prevalence HCV infection, the implementation universal precautionary measures may not suffice order to decrease incidence and HCV. this setting strict isolation practices can be useful achieve goal.The infection amongst all HD peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients from province Albacete, Spain, have been studied 1992 2003.Through 1993-1995 period chronic were treated either room...
It is becoming more and common in the Mediterranean basin to guard against forest fires by creating wooded firebreak areas reducing overstory density, pruning remaining trees slash mulching. Nevertheless, very few attempts have been made analyse effect of this practice upon tree growth productivity understory plant species semi-arid following a well defined experimental design over any length time. To remedy lack information, during spring 2005 we thinned Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis Mill.)...
The Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis Mill.) is a conifer native to the Mediterranean region. In 2008 and 2009, survey of seedling diseases was performed in three forest nurseries from Relizane, Sidi Bel Abbes, Tlemcen departments northwestern Algeria. One- two-month-old seedlings showed symptoms damping-off pre- post-emergence (typical collar rot). problem widespread with disease incidence 64 77% an annual impact US$50,000. Disinfested root segments (from four composite samples per location),...
The observation that some subjects with low PTH had elevated plasma magnesium (Mg) levels prompted us to analyze in 41 patients on maintenance hemodialysis for 44 +/- 36 months, their serum Mg concentrations, and the relationship between levels. mean concentration was 2.4 0.2 mg/dl. Twenty-four out of (58.5%) hypermagnesemia (serum above 2.5 mg/dl). Patients were classified into 3 groups according level: Group A, (below 120 pg/ml); group B, adequate (120-250 C, high (above 250 pg/ml). There...

In 2008 and 2009, survey of seedling diseases was performed in three forest nurseries from Relizane, Sidi Bel Abbes, Tlemcen provinces northwestern Algeria. seedlings showed symptoms pre- post-emergence damping-off disease, with an incidence 64 77%. Four composite samples were taken each location. Disinfested root collar segments, approximately 5 mm length, cultured on potato dextrose agar (PDA)...
In northwestern Algeria, the production of Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis Mill.) seedlings in four nurseries is hindered by damping-off disease. Results obtained indicated that Fusarium spp. are commonly found on diseased seedlings, most containers and bare-root nurseries. Twenty-one isolates Fusarium, belonging to seven species, were previously isolated from identified based their morphological molecular characteristics sequences had been deposited NCBI-Genbank. These tested for...
Dialysis patients have been maintaining a high rate of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. For this reason, it is to introduce necessary new technical advances in clinical practice. There relation between toxins retention inflammation, mortality morbidity. Medium cut-off (MCO) membranes are generation that allow the removal greater number medium-sized molecules compared with high-flux hemodialysis (HF-HD), but retaining albumin. MCO an increased permeability presence internal filtration....
Systemic vasculitides constitute a heterogeneous group of diseases autoimmunological origin characterized by inflammation blood vessels and antibodies that react against autoantigens in process ultimately affects vessel walls. An important number these patients present kidney disease. endeavour this area research is the identification involved diseases. Accordingly, we used serum from patient suffering microscopic polyangiitis, P-ANCA positive, manifesting clinically atypical renal...
The Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis Mill.) is a conifer native to the Mediterranean region. In autumn and spring of 2008 2009, survey seedling diseases was carried out in three forest nurseries from Relizane, Sidi Bel Abbes, Tlemcen departments northwestern Algeria. seedlings were potted soil. all nurseries, 1- 2-month old showed symptoms damping-off disease pre- post-emergence (collar rot) with incidence 64, 77, 72%, respectively. Disinfected collar segments, about 5 mm length, plated on PDA...
Globisporangium ultimum (Trow) Uzuhashi, Tojo & Kakish. (syn. Pythium Trow, syn. P. Trow var. ultimum) is a known oomycetal species from s.l. causing damping-off and/or root rot on great variety of plants throughout the world, including some pine (Pinus L.) and conifers (2,3). Aleppo halepensis Mill.) common native forest tree in Mediterranean region. Pre- post-emergence disease symptoms were observed during 2008 2009 four nurseries northwestern Algeria (Relizane, Sidi Belabes, Tlemcen...
