Abstract Background Metabolic acidosis is associated with accelerated progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Whether treatment metabolic sodium bicarbonate improves and patient survival in CKD unclear. Methods We conducted a randomized (ratio 1:1). open-label, controlled trial (NCT number: NCT01640119. www.clinicaltrials.gov ) to determine the effect patients stage 3–5 (SB) on creatinine doubling (primary endpoint), all-cause mortality time renal replacement therapy compared standard...
In chronic kidney disease (CKD), the gut-microbiota metabolites indoxyl sulfate (IS) and p-cresyl (PCS) progressively accumulate due to their high albumin-binding capacity, leading clinical complications. a prospective crossover controlled trial, 60 patients with CKD grades 3B–4 (GFR = 21.6 ± 13.2 mL/min) were randomly assigned two dietary regimens: (i) 3 months of free diet (FD) (FD is usually used by patient before being enrolled in Medika study), 6 very low protein (VLPD), FD...
Modern wastewater treatment plants base their biological processes on advanced control systems which ensure compliance with discharge limits and minimize energy consumption responding to information from on-line probes. The correct readings of probes are particularly crucial for intermittent aeration controllers, rely real-time measurements ammonia oxygen in tanks. These data also an important resource developing artificial intelligence algorithms that can identify process or sensor...
Background: The perturbation of phosphate homeostasis portends unfavorable outcomes in chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the absence randomized clinical trials (RCT) fuels discussion whether or some other phosphorous-related factor(s) such as fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) mediates cardiovascular and systemic toxicity. We herein test fractional excretion (FeP) a marker renal stress to excrete phosphorous predicts CKD patients. Methods: Retrospective, cross-sectional observational...
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the primary cause of end-stage renal disease, worldwide, and oxidative stress has been recognized as a key factor in pathogenesis progression DN. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase most important contribution to reactive oxygen species generation during development Bioactive compound use emerged potential approach reduce chronic failure. Therefore, red orange lemon extract (RLE) rich anthocyanins was chosen our study, toxic effects DN...
The increasing use of intermittent aeration controllers in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) aims to reduce costs via continuous ammonia and oxygen measurements but faces challenges detecting sensor process anomalies. Applying machine learning this unbalanced, multivariate, multiclass classification challenge requires much data, difficult obtain from a new plant. This study develops algorithm identify anomalies WWTPs, adaptable with limited data. Utilizing active learning, the method...
