Polymorphisms in MYH9 are associated with diabetic nephropathy in European Americans.
BACKGROUND Polymorphisms in the non-muscle myosin IIA gene (MYH9) are associated with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and non-diabetic end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in African Americans and FSGS in European Americans. We tested for association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in MYH9 with T2DM-ESRD in European Americans; additionally, three APOL1 gene variants were evaluated...
متن کاملContrast-Induced Nephropathy Following CT Scan and Its Associated Factors
Background and purpose: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) as a common complication of administration of contrast media (CM) is a major source of hospital morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of CIN after contrast-enhanced CT scan and identifying the related risk factors. Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out in 100 patients att...
متن کامل[BK-virus-associated Nephropathy].
The infection by the BK Polyomavirus (BKV) is an emerging problem in kidney transplants that contributes to a chronic loss of kidney grafts, and in which immunosuppression plays a decisive role. Understanding its risk factors and strictly monitoring urine and serological markers of the infection could mitigate the undesirable effects of this disease. In this review, we investigate the clinical ...
متن کاملMYH9-related platelet disorders.
Myosin heavy chain 9 (MYH9)-related platelet disorders belong to the group of inherited thrombocytopenias. The MYH9 gene encodes the nonmuscle myosin heavy chain IIA (NMMHC-IIA), a cytoskeletal contractile protein. Several mutations in the MYH9 gene lead to premature release of platelets from the bone marrow, macrothrombocytopenia, and cytoplasmic inclusion bodies within leukocytes. Four overla...
متن کاملMembranous Nephropathy Associated with Atheroembolism
Membranous nephropathy (MN) is one of the most common biopsy diagnoses in adults, and it has been associated with chronic infections, autoimmune diseases, malignancies, and drugs. However, MN associated with cholesterol crystal emboli has never been reported. Here we present a patient with MN as an unusual manifestation of atheroembolism. A 75-year-old man with worsening renal function after ca...
