OBJECTIVE To investigate how risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) among patients with type 1 diabetes has changed over time and further how the risk is affected by age, sex, and time period of diagnosis of diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A cohort including all patients <30 years old diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in Finland in 1965-2011 was followed until start of renal replacement th...

SELL (L-selectin) is a candidate gene for several complex diseases including diabetes mellitus and renal failure. Our aim was to investigate the involvement of P213S SELL gene polymorphism (rs2229569) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and related end stage renal disease (ESRD). Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients without ESRD (n=250) or with ESRD (n=90), ESRD patients without diabetes (n=119) an...

INTRODUCTION: Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) may require a panniculectomy in preparation for renal transplantation. ESRD is associated with increased cardiovascular risk factors, electrolyte imbalances, and chronic anemia. These factors may increase the risk of adverse outcomes in patients undergoing panniculectomy. Purpose of this study was to evaluate safety and perioperative co...

To assess frequency of adynamic bone disease in subjects with ESRD a Prospective study was carried out at Department Medicine, Services Hospital Lahore from 6 months January 2022 to July 2022. Demographic data the including gender, age, BMI, smoking history, socioeconomic status and duration dialysis end stage renal recorded. Blood samples all patients were drawn sent laboratory for evaluation ...

BACKGROUND Anthropometric and metabolic risk factors for all-cause end-stage renal disease (ESRD) may vary in their impact depending on the specific primary renal disease. METHODS In this Austrian population-based prospective cohort study (n = 185,341; 53.9% women) the following data were collected between 1985 and 2005: age, sex, body mass index (BMI), fasting blood glucose (FBG) from 1988, ...

Historically, patients with type 1 diabetes and macroalbuminuria had high competing risks: cardiovascular death or renal failure. Here, we assessed these risks in patients receiving therapies implemented during the last 30 years. Between 1991 and 2004, we enrolled 423 white patients with type 1 diabetes who developed macroalbuminuria (albumin excretion rate, ≥300 μg/min). With follow-up for 98%...

BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgery is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The long-term association between AKI and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in an Asian population is unknown. Given the high prevalence of diabetes and a younger age of presentation for cardiac surgery, it is important to track this progression of kidney disease. Therefore, we studied ...

Significant intrafamilial phenotypic variability is well documented in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and suggests a modifier effect. In this study, variance components analysis was performed to estimate the contribution of genetic factors for within-family renal disease variability in 406 patients from 66 type 1 ADPKD families. Overall, 39% of the study patients had ESRD ...
