BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Long-term exposure to cadmium (Cd) causes renal dysfunction, but the change in renal function with exposure is unknown. We assessed the evolution of Cd-induced renal effects after a reduction in dietary exposure to Cd in rice. METHODS Four hundred twelve residents in previously Cd-polluted and nonpolluted areas were examined twice, in 1998 and in 2006. Changes in bloo...
BACKGROUND β2-microglobulin has been increasingly investigated as a diagnostic marker of kidney function and a prognostic marker of adverse outcomes. To date, non-renal determinants of β2-microglobulin levels have not been well described. Non-renal determinants are important for the interpretation and appraisal of the diagnostic and prognostic value of any endogenous kidney function marker. M...
Blood and urine were samples daily from 11 renal-allograft recipients from one to six weeks after the transplant. Clearances of both albumin (Calb) and beta2-microglobulin (C beta 2 mu) were significantly increased in all 11 patients. Five patients (Group I) with acute allograft rejection showed markedly increased Calb and moderately increased C beta 2 mu, concurrent with decreased creatinine c...
Serum beta2-microglobulin, the light chain of the HLA class I molecular complex, remains one of the best survival prognostic factors in multiple myeloma, but other HLA class I molecules might be of interest in monoclonal gammopathies. In this study, we evaluate total soluble HLA class I (HLA-Is) and soluble HLA-G (HLA-Gs) in 103 patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, 30 patients with m...
BACKGROUND Acute tubular necrosis (ATN) has high mortality, especially in patients who require renal replacement therapy (RRT). We prospectively studied the diagnostic accuracy of the urinary excretion of low-molecular-weight proteins and enzymes as predictors of a need for RRT in ATN. METHODS In 73 consecutive patients with initially nonoliguric ATN, we measured urinary excretion of alpha(1)...
OBJECTIVES To analyze the clinical and immunological characteristics at enrollment in a large prospective cohort of patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) and to investigate the association between serum BAFF, beta2-microglobulin and free light chains of immunoglobulins and systemic disease activity at enrollment. METHODS Three hundred and ninety five patients with pSS according to Am...
Abstract Background Proteinuria has been commonly reported in patients with COVID-19. However, only dipstick tests have frequently used thus far. Here, the quantification and characterization of proteinuria were investigated their association mortality was assessed. Methods This retrospective, observational, single center study included 153 patients, hospitalized COVID-19 between March 28th Apr...
BACKGROUND Membranes fabricated from nominally similar polymers may be markedly different in chemical composition, morphology and geometry. To examine the relative importance of these factors to dialyzer performance, the removal of small and large uraemic toxins was determined for dialyzers containing 'polysulfone' membranes of different composition and morphology, with and without fibre undula...
