Urinary enzyme excretion by renal-transplant recipients in relation to interval after transplantation.
We determined the urinary excretion of the enzymes aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.2), alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1), gamma-glutamyltransferase (EC 2.3.2.2), and N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase (EC 3.2.1.30) in two groups of renal-transplant recipients at different times after transplantation (1.8 months and 52 months, respectively). Both groups of patients showed a higher rate of enzyme excretion ...
متن کاملAssociation between Amylase Excretion Fraction and Acute Renal Transplant Rejection in Pediatrics
Background and Objectives: Serum amylase increases and its excretion fraction decreases in patients with renal failure. Excretion fraction can be used as a diagnostic way in individuals with acute renal transplant rejection. In this study, the association between amylase excretion fraction and acute renal transplant rejection, was investigated in pediatrics. Methods: in this case - control s...
متن کاملDetermining an accurate method to estimate GFR in renal transplant recipients with stable serum creatinine levels
Introduction:Detecting renal allograft dysfunction early will allow timely diagnosis and treatment. There is no objective recommendation by national kidney societies for glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) estimation in post-transplant setting. 99mTc-DTPA Technetium-99m Diethylene triamine penta acetic acid) renogram can identify early renal dysfunction much before ser...
متن کاملHistopathologic evaluation of Verrucous skin lesions in renal transplant recipients
Background: Warts are common in renal allograft recipients (RAR) with reported incidence of 24% to 100%. These patients also demonstrate an accelerated malignant transformation of warts. Although in immunocompetent patients, the histology of common warts is quite predictable, this is not so in RAR. Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the histopathologic findings of warty lesion...
متن کاملSerum hepcidin-25 levels in patients with chronic kidney disease are independent of glomerular filtration rate.
BACKGROUND Hepcidin is a key regulator of iron homeostasis and levels are elevated in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Hepcidin may explain the often observed imbalance in iron metabolism in patients with CKD. We evaluated the influence of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on serum levels of hepcidin-25 and its isoforms in patients with renal dysfunction. METHODS Serum le...
