Abstract This study aimed to evaluate changes in health-related quality of life (HRQOL) patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) according decline function. HRQOL was assessed using the Short Form-36 questionnaire composed a physical component summary (PCS) and mental (MCS). Rapid function defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) > 3 mL/min/1.73 m 2 /year. deterioration change value greater than median. Among 970 patients, 360 (37.1%) were rapid group. In 720 who 1:1...
Though acute kidney injury (AKI) is a prevalent complication in critically ill patients, knowledge on the epidemiological differences and clinical characteristics of patients with AKI admitted to medical surgical intensive care units (ICUs) remains limited.
Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent form of glomerulonephritis worldwide. Prediction disease progression in IgAN can help to provide individualized treatment based on accurate risk stratification.We performed proton nuclear magnetic resonance-based metabolomics analyses serum and urine samples from healthy controls, non-progressor (NP), progressor (P) groups identify metabolic profiles progression. Metabolites that were significantly different between NP P selected for...
Background It is unclear whether poor glycemic control contributes to residual kidney function (RKF) decline and consequent volume overload in diabetic patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). Methods This retrospective analysis included 80 who started PD at a single center. The first 2 years of patient data were collected investigate the impact RKF early stages PD. We used time-averaged glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels estimate control. loss was measured as slope time anuria. To assess...
Whether continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) should be applied to critically ill patients with both acute kidney injury (AKI) and cancer remains controversial because of poor expected outcomes. The present study determined prognostic factors for all-cause in-hospital mortality in AKI undergoing CRRT.We included 471 who underwent CRRT at the intensive care unit a Korean tertiary hospital from 2013 2020, classified them by malignancy type. primary outcomes were 28-day rate mortality....
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) plays an important role in the clinical evaluation of renal function, classification, prognosis prediction, and drug dosing patients with acute or chronic kidney disease . Estimated GFR (eGFR) is calculated based on endogenous markers, such as creatinine cystatin C. These are useful but it necessary to understand settings which eGFR, using C, may be less accurate. Several equations, including Cockcroft Gault, modification diet disease, disease-epidemiology...
Continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT) is crucial in the management of acute injury intensive care units (ICUs). Nonetheless, optimal anticoagulation strategy for patients with bleeding tendencies remains debated. This study aimed to evaluate patient outcomes and safety nafamostat mesylate (NM) compared no (NA) critically ill who were undergoing CKRT.
Abstract Background Hypoalbuminemia at the initiation of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is a risk factor for poor patient outcomes. However, it unknown whether patterns changes in serum albumin levels during CRRT can be used to predict Methods This retrospective study analyzed data that had been consecutively collected from January 2016 December 2020 Third Affiliated Hospital. We included patients with acute kidney injury who received ≥ 72 h. divided into four groups based on...
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is the most common primary glomerular disorder that leads to end-stage kidney disease. Pembrolizumab, an immune checkpoint inhibitor, anti-programmed death 1 (PD-1) immunoglobulin G4 antibody approved for treatment of advanced melanoma and can cause various renal immune-related adverse events (AEs), including acute injury. Several cases anti PD-1 therapy-induced glomerulonephritis have been reported so far, but FSGS has seldom reported.46-year old...
Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) is a renal cause of non-anion-gap metabolic characterized by low urinary ammonia excretion. This condition has prevalence, and various congenital acquired etiologies. To date, only few cases idiopathic RTA uncovered during pregnancy have been reported.A previously healthy 32-year-old Korean woman at 30 wk gestation was admitted to Pusan National University Hospital with preterm labor. At admission, the patient presented hypokalemia, acidosis, nephrocalcinosis....
Carbon nanotube (CNT)-based cold cathodes are promising sources of field emission electrons for advanced electron devices, particularly ultra-high-resolution imaging systems, due to their high brightness and low energy spread. While the properties single-tip CNT have been intensively studied in last few decades, a systematic study influencing factors on beam resolution secondary images has overlooked this field. Here, we systematically investigated effect structural cathode microscope (SEM)...

Herpes zoster virus infection is common and results in significant morbidity patients who have undergone solid organ transplantation. can involve the cranial nerves, vagus nerve involvement an infrequent primary manifestation of herpes zoster. Here, we describe a rare presentation disseminated with kidney transplant recipient. A 62-year-old man had transplantation 3 years prior presented to our clinic sore throat hoarseness, followed by multiple vesicular-pustular rashes on face trunk....
This study aims to analyze the learning curve of hand-assisted laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy (HLDN) conducted by a trained gastrointestinal surgeon.
Ischemic monomelic neuropathy (IMN) is an uncommon complication of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) surgery that presents with pain, motor weakness, and sensory changes without critical ischemia. This report describes a rare case successful IMN treatment after AVF surgery. A 61-year-old man diabetic end-stage kidney disease was admitted for left brachiocephalic Postoperatively, the patient complained numbness in hand. However, radial pulse remained palpable, overlying skin intact. nerve...
Background Phosphorus-containing dialysis solution is used to prevent hypophosphatemia in patients undergoing continuous venovenous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF). This study evaluated the effect of phosphorus-containing on mortality CVVHDF based changes phosphorus and red cell distribution width-coefficient variation (RDW-CV) levels. Methods We included 272 with acute kidney injury (AKI) who underwent at medical intensive care unit from 2017 2019 classified them according Phoxilium (Baxter...
Abstract Rationale: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) is an autosomal-dominant neurocutaneous disorder that affects the skin, bones, and nervous system. The most common manifestation of kidney involvement renal artery stenosis; glomerulonephritis extremely rare. In this case report, we present a patient with NF-1 immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). Patient concerns: 51-year-old Korean man previously diagnosed presented persistent proteinuria hematuria identified during routine medical...
Abstract Background We hypothesized that a low mean arterial pressure (MAP) at CRRT initiation would influence the early death or withdrawal of and in-hospital mortality. Methods This prospective cohort study collected data for patients seen Third Affiliated Hospital from January 2016 to December 2020. MAP CRRT, reasons termination, mortality data. divided into four groups based on quartiles initial analyzed its death/withdrawal CRRT. Results A total 2,346 with acute kidney injury (AKI) were...
Abstract Background and Aims Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death in patients on hemodialysis (HD). Indeed, left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, symptomatic congestive heart failure arrhythmia are independent predictors poor survival hospitalization these patients. Among who initiated HD, proportions elderly aged >65 years increasing worldwide. According to Korean Renal Data System, percentage incident HD aged>65 increased from 11% 1990 53% 2022. In...
