A Retrospective Analysis of Outcomes in Patients With Hepatorenal Syndrome at Methodist Dallas Medical Center
Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is a common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with liver disease [1]. Increased activity and presence of vasodilators such as nitric oxide in cirrhotic patients leads to vasodilation, especially in the splanchnic circulation, resulting in hemodynamic changes that precipitate renal injury [1]. Patients may …
Use of Novel Plasma and Urinary Biomarkers to Predict the Development of Hepatorenal Syndrome in Cirrhotic Patients
This study investigated the use of novel plasma and urinary biomarkers to predicte the development of hepatorenal syndrome in patients with advanced cirrhosis. The biomarkers investigated include plasma cystatin C, plasma NGAL, plasma NAG, plasma IL-18, plasma ADMA, plasma BTP, urinary KIM-1 and urinary LFABP. These biomarkers will be checked …
Hantavirus Registry - HantaReg
Hantavirus disease are zoonotic infections and remain a clinical challenge with globally increasing incidence and multiple serious outbreak situations in Europe within the last years. Hantavirus disease encompasses two clinical syndromes, hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) caused by Old World and New World hantaviruses, …
Kidney Function in People With Cystic Fibrosis in the Era of HEMT
The purpose of this study is to find out what causes kidney disease in people with CF. The investigators will study biomarkers in the blood and urine that can either predict who is at risk or detect kidney damage early before it becomes permanent. The study will compare these markers …
Modified Supine vs Prone Position Pnl
perform a comparative randomized trial comparing the efficacy and safety of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in the prone and modified supine positions in management of complex renal stones
RIRS With Tip Flexible Pressure-controlling Ureteral Access Sheath Versus Mini PCNLfor Kidney Stones
The goal of this observational study is to compare the safety and efficacy between RIRS with tip flexible pressure-controlling ureteral access sheath and mini percutaneous nephrolithotripsy（PCNL） for the treatment of 2-3-cm kidney stones.
Treatment Optimization and Nephrolithiasis Recurrence Prevention With Interdisciplinary Care
Nearly 10% of the Belgian population suffer from kidney stone disease. Recent reviews reported that kidney stones represent an underestimated risk factor for further kidney function deterioration. Preventive measures are recommended in lithiases patients to prevent the formation of new stones. The individual effects of different medicated prosthetic interventions have …
Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NET's) in Prevalent Kidney Stone
Neutrophils are first responders to any kind of threat the body faces: infection, severe trauma, cancer, surgery... They produce the cytokines, induct oxidative stress and de-granulate toxic proteins to kill pathogens. However the new mechanism related to the neutrophil extracellular traps release has been recognized as a new way of …
Identification and Treatment of Renal Stenosis in Transplanted Kidneys
Renal artery stenosis is a complication that may follow kidney transplantation1-5. Renal artery stenosis greater than 50% of the lumen of the artery, associated with clinical symptoms or laboratory worsening of renal function, may lead to transplant failure, however, the indications for treatment and the modalities of treatment remain, to …
Kidney Stone Inflammation
This observational study aims to look at the connections between kidney stones, insulin resistance, and inflammation. The researchers hypothesize that people who form calcium kidney stones and have insulin resistance may have higher levels of inflammation because they have more visceral fat (fat around the abdominal organs). The study will …
