Nephrolithiasis is one of the most common urinary tract disorders, with majority kidney stones composed calcium oxalate (CaOx). Given its prevalence (US occurrence 10%), it still poorly understood, lacking progress in identifying new therapies because complex etiology. Drosophila melanogaster (fruitfly) a recently developed model CaOx nephrolithiasis. Effects sulfate and thiosulfate on crystal formation were investigated using model, as well electrophysiological effects both (Slc26a5/6;...
Zinc (Zn 2+ ) is the second most abundant trace element, but considered a micronutrient, as it cofactor for many enzymes and transcription factors. Whereas Zn deficiency can cause cognitive immune or metabolic dysfunction infertility, excess nephrotoxic. As other ions solutes, moved into out of cells by specific membrane transporters: ZnT, Zip, NRAMP/DMT proteins. ZIP10 reported to be localized at apical renal proximal tubules in rats, where believed play role import. Renal regulation...
Vascular access for central venous catheter placement is technically challenging in children. Ultrasound guidance recommended pediatric placement, yet many practitioners rely on imprecise anatomic landmark techniques risking procedure failure due to difficulty mastering ultrasound guidance. A novel navigation system provides a visual overlay real-time images depict needle trajectory and tip location during cannulation. We report the first study assessing feasibility preliminary safety of...
To assess the diagnostic performance of ferumoxytol-enhanced MR venography for detection thoracic central vein stenosis or occlusion with conventional as reference standard.In this retrospective study, consecutive patients from May 2012 to December 2018 underwent dedicated veins and within 6 months detecting venous stenosis. The were divided into seven segments evaluation. images evaluated by three radiologists presence occlusion. Interobserver agreement was assessed using Fleiss κ.A total...
