Background. The chronic use of immunosuppressive drugs is a key risk factor death because coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs), although no evident association between the class and outcomes has been observed. Thus, we aimed to compare COVID-19–associated among KTRs receiving 3 different maintenance regimes. Methods. This study included data from 1833 with COVID-19 diagnosed March 20 April 21 extracted national registry before immunization. All patients...

Serum hepcidin levels may increase in response to infection and inflammation. The present study investigated the effect of nonsurgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) on serum hepcidin, inflammatory markers, iron markers. An interventional was conducted 67 patients (age 30–65 years) without other diseases, except for chronic periodontitis (CP). Patients were allocated either CP or control groups. group received supragingival subgingival scaling root planing procedures, whereas scaling. Probing...

Kidney transplantation is the best option for patients with end-stage renal disease. This study evaluated profile of cystatin C (CysC), interleukin 2 (IL-2), IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) as inflammatory markers in 23 living donor kidney transplant recipients. A descriptive, analytical prospective was conducted between January 1st, 2007 June 30th, 2008 on The bio-markers were before 30 180 days after transplantation. mean age 34.3 years (± 11.7), females (52%) non-whites (61%)....

The introduction of tacrolimus (TAC) to clinical practice was essential the establishment transplantation as a therapy for patients with chronic renal disease. However, higher interindividual variation TAC metabolism has been an important limiting factor its use. Although relationship between CYP3A5 polymorphisms and pharmacokinetics (PK) is well established, effects other genetic variants on metabolism, such POR*28, still remain uncertain.The study aimed evaluate impact POR PK in transplant...
