This article summarizes the ERA-EDTA Registry's 2016 Annual Report, by describing epidemiology of renal replacement therapy (RRT) for end-stage disease (ESRD) in within 36 countries.In 2017 and 2018, Registry received data on patients undergoing RRT ESRD from 52 national or regional registries. In all, 32 registries provided individual patient 20 aggregated data. The incidence prevalence survival probabilities these were determined.In 2016, was 121 per million population (pmp), ranging 29...
This article summarizes the European Renal Association – Dialysis and Transplant (ERA-EDTA) Registry’s 2015 Annual Report. It describes epidemiology of renal replacement therapy (RRT) for end-stage disease (ESRD) in within 36 countries. In 2016 2017, ERA-EDTA Registry received data on patients who were undergoing RRT ESRD 2015, from 52 national or regional registries. Thirty-two registries provided individual patient-level 20 aggregated-level data. The incidence, prevalence survival...
The European Renal Association (ERA) Registry collects data on kidney replacement therapy (KRT) in patients with ESKD. This paper is a summary of the ERA Annual Report 2020, also including comparisons among primary renal disease (PRD) groups.Data were collected from 52 national and regional registries 34 countries bordering Mediterranean Sea: 35 18 providing individual level 17 aggregated data. Using this data, KRT incidence prevalence, transplantation rates, expected remaining lifetimes...
Data on renal replacement therapy (RRT) for end-stage disease were collected by the European Renal Association (ERA) Registry via national and regional registries in Europe countries bordering Mediterranean Sea. This article provides a summary of 2019 ERA Annual Report, including data from 34 additional age comparisons.Individual patient provided 35 aggregated 17 registries. Using these data, incidence prevalence RRT, kidney transplantation activity survival probabilities calculated.In 2019,...
Background: This article summarizes the European Renal Association - Dialysis and Transplant Registry's 2014 annual report. It describes epidemiology of renal replacement therapy (RRT) for end-stage disease (ESRD) in within 35 countries. Methods: In 2016, ERA-EDTA Registry received data on patients who where undergoing RRT ESRD, from 51 national or regional registries. Thirty-two registries provided individual patient level 19 aggregated data. The incidence, prevalence survival probabilities...
This article provides a summary of the 2013 European Renal Association–European Dialysis and Transplant Association (ERA-EDTA) Registry Annual Report (available at http://www.era-edta-reg.org), with focus on patients diabetes mellitus (DM) as cause end-stage renal disease (ESRD). In 2015, ERA-EDTA received data replacement therapy (RRT) for ESRD from 49 national or regional registries in 34 countries Europe bordering Mediterranean Sea. Individual patient were provided by 31 registries, while...
This article presents a summary of the 2017 Annual Report European Renal Association-European Dialysis and Transplant Association (ERA-EDTA) Registry describes epidemiology renal replacement therapy (RRT) for end-stage disease (ESRD) in 37 countries.The ERA-EDTA received individual patient data on patients undergoing RRT ESRD from 32 national or regional registries aggregated 21 registries. The incidence prevalence RRT, kidney transplantation activity survival probabilities these were...
ABSTRACT Background The aim of this study was to identify trends in total, deceased donor (DD) and living (LD) kidney transplantation (KT) rates European countries. Methods Renal Association (ERA) Registry the Global Observatory on Donation Transplantation (GODT) databases were used obtain number KTs individual countries between 2010 2018. General population counts obtained from Eurostat or national bureaus statistics. KT rate per million (p.m.p.) average annual percentage change (APC)...
The removal of contaminants from aqueous solutions by adsorption onto carbonaceous materials has attracted increasing interest in recent years. In this study, pristine and oxidized activated carbon (AC) fabrics with different surface textures porosity characteristics were used for the crystal violet (CV) dye solutions. Batch experiments performed to investigate CV performance AC terms contact time, temperature, adsorbate concentration adsorbent amount. Evaluation thermodynamic parameters...
The aims of this study were to determine the frequency dialysis and kidney transplantation estimate regularity comprehensive conservative management (CCM) for patients with failure in Europe. This uses data from ERA-EDTA Registry. Additionally, our included supplemental Armenia, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Kosovo, Luxembourg, Malta, Moldova, Montenegro, Slovenia additional Israel, Italy, Slovakia using other information sources. Through an online survey, responding nephrologists estimated CCM...
Familial glomerular hematuria(s) comprise a genetically heterogeneous group of conditions which include Alport Syndrome (AS) and thin basement membrane nephropathy (TBMN). Here we investigated 57 Greek-Cypriot families presenting microscopic hematuria (GMH), with or without proteinuria chronic kidney function decline, but excluded classical AS. We specifically searched the COL4A3/A4 genes identified 8 heterozygous mutations in 16 (28,1%). Eight non-related featured founder mutation...
Glomerular podocytes are critical regulators of glomerular permeability via the slit diaphragm and may play a role in cleaning filter. Whether able to endocytose proteins is uncertain. We studied protein endocytosis conditionally immortalized mouse human using FITC-albumin by direct quantitative assay fluorescence microscopy electron podocytes. Furthermore, vivo uptake was human, rat, Both displayed specific one-site binding for with K(d) 0.91 or 0.44 mg/ml B(max) 3.15 0.81 microg/mg cell...
Introduction Within this longitudinal study we investigated the association of inflammation markers C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) endothelial dysfunction intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) vascular cell (VCAM-1) with left ventricular mass indexed for height2·71 (LVMI) in hypertensive predialysis CKD patients. Material Methods From 2004 to 2005, 182 incident consecutive adult patients from outpatient clinics two hospitals Greece...
Differential diagnosis of thrombotic microangiopathies can be difficult. Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome is a rare, life-threatening disease caused by uncontrolled chronic activation alternative complement pathway, resulting in microvascular thrombosis, organ ischemia and damage. Prognosis poor: up to 65 percent patients require dialysis or have kidney damage varying severity die despite plasma exchange/plasma infusion treatment. We describe the case 23-year-old woman Hellenic origin who,...
Increased apoptosis along with enhanced inflammation has been reported in hemodialysis and pre-dialysis patients. However, there is limited information at which stage during the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) balance between pro- anti-apoptotic mechanisms disturbed inflammatory response activated. The aim this study was to investigate possible alterations apoptotic markers CKD (stages 1-4) probable interactions them.In a cross-sectional study, 152 steady-state outpatients (83...
The adsorption of actinide ions (Am(III) and U(VI)) from aqueous solutions using pristine oxidized carbon fabrics was investigated by means batch experiments at different pH values (pH 4, 7 9) temperatures (25, 35 45 °C) under ambient atmospheric conditions. experimental results indicated that both the fabric texture affected rate relative removal efficiency, which 70% 100% for Am(III) U(VI), respectively. Kd (L/kg) U(VI) were generally found to be higher (2 < log10(Kd)< 3) than...
This study aimed to investigate the association of both body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) with left ventricular (LVM) in hypertensive predialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. From 2004 2005, 206 consecutive incident adult patients from outpatient CKD clinics two hospitals Greece were included. Inclusion criteria presence hypertension. BMI (kg/m2), WC (cm) LVM (g) assessed annually for 3 years. The mean age was 68.1 years, 29.1 kg/m2 103.7 cm. median 245.7 g (n =...
