Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) elevates the risk of cardiovascular and overall mortality among maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Although initially designed to predict stroke in cases atrial fibrillation, CHA2DS2-VASc score demonstrates predictive utility, spanning several conditions. This study seeks evaluate if is effective predicting all-cause for MHD Methods: The data are part "Prospective Study Prognosis Patients on Hemodialysis" (PROHEMO) developed Salvador, BA,...
Background: Lupus nephritis (LN) occurs in approximately 50% of people with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The 24-h proteinuria (gold standard) is measured among other tests for the control and monitoring LN activity. This study investigates use protein/creatinine ratio (PCR) as an alternative detection its accuracy compared to gold standard a predominantly non-white population. Methods: was prospective conducted Salvador, Brazil, between December 2021 May 2022. We invited adult...
Monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance (MGRS) encompasses a heterogeneous group kidney diseases in which monoclonal immunoglobulin secreted by clone B cells or plasma causes damage without meeting the hematological criteria for malignancy. Among various forms involvement, MGRS can manifest as proximal tubule disorder, such Fanconi syndrome (FS), characterized urinary loss phosphate, glucose, amino acids, uric acid and bicarbonate. Few cases have been described literature, manifesting FS...
The 24-h urine protein (24-hUP) excretion is the gold standard for evaluating proteinuria. This study aimed to evaluate diagnostic efficacy of protein/creatinine ratio (PCR) estimating 24-hUP at various levels renal function and proteinuria levels. A cross-sectional was conducted between December 2021 2023 in Salvador, Bahia-Brazil, as an extension previously published data from TUNARI study. included 217 samples 152 patients with PCR isolated were determined conventionally within a...
