Low-dose carbon monoxide inhibits progressive chronic allograft nephropathy and restores renal allograft function.
Chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN) represents progressive deterioration of renal allograft function with fibroinflammatory changes. CAN, recently reclassified as interstitial fibrosis (IF) and tubular atrophy (TA) with no known specific etiology, is a major cause of late renal allograft loss and remains a significant deleterious factor of successful renal transplantation. Carbon monoxide (CO),...
متن کاملTenofovir-associated decline in renal function.
To the Editor—We read with interest the article by Goicoechea et al. [1] on the role of antiretroviral medications and tenofovirassociated kidney dysfunction. The authors concludedthatregimensbasedonritonavirboosted protease inhibitor (PI/r) were associated with a greater decline in kidney function than regimens based on nonnucleoside reverse-transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) among patients rec...
متن کاملHelicobacter pylori cagA Status, vacA Subtypes and Histopathologic Findings in Iranian Patients with chronic gastritis
Background and Objective: Helicobacter pylori has several strains with different degrees of virulence. The aim of this study was to detect two major important virulence factors, cagA/vacA genotypes, and to determine correlations among different cagA/vacA genotypes and histological features of chronic gastritis in Iranian patients. Methods: In this cross- sectional study, Gastric bi...
متن کاملAortic Stiffness Is Independently Associated With Rate of Renal Function Decline in Chronic Kidney Disease
Aortic stiffness and chronic kidney disease are closely linked by shared risk factors and associated increased cardiovascular mortality. At lower levels of renal function, aortic stiffness is independently associated with glomerular filtration rate. However, the longitudinal impact of aortic stiffness on renal function has not been reported previously. A cohort of 133 patients with chronic kidn...
متن کاملChronic renal allograft dysfunction.
The major causes of renal transplant loss are death from vascular, malignant or infectious disease, and loss of the allograft from chronic renal dysfunction associated with the development of graft fibrosis and glomerulosclerosis. Chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN) is the histologic description of the fibrosis, vascular and glomerular damage occurring in renal allografts. Clinical programs rel...
