Warfarin dosing in patients with impaired kidney function.
BACKGROUND In patients with kidney impairment, warfarin, a drug metabolized primarily by the cytochrome P-450 system, is initiated at similar doses and managed similarly as in the general medical population. Unfortunately, few data exist to guide dose adjustment in patients with decreased kidney function. Here, we determine the degree of warfarin dose reduction associated with kidney impairment...
متن کاملEstimating baseline kidney function in hospitalized patients with impaired kidney function.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Inaccurate determination of baseline kidney function can misclassify acute kidney injury (AKI) and affect the study of AKI-related outcomes. No consensus exists on how to optimally determine baseline kidney function when multiple preadmission creatinine measurements are available. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS The accuracy of commonly used methods for...
متن کاملCirculating MicroRNAs Link Inflammation to Impaired Wound Healing in Diabetes.
S oon after their discovery in 1993, it became clear that microRNAs (miRs) regulate virtually all cellular processes. 1 Since then, many miRs have been described to coordinate gene expression programs in the context of cardiovascular disease, including diabetes mellitus. 2,3 MiRs usually perform their duties intracellularly, but interest in extracellular miRs as biomarkers or intercellular mess...
متن کاملImpaired wound healing in embryonic and adult mice lacking vimentin.
It is generally assumed that the vimentin intermediate filament network present in most mesenchymally-derived cells is in part responsible for the strength and integrity of these cells, and necessary for any tissue movements that require the generation of significant tractional forces. Surprisingly, we have shown that transgenic KO mice deficient for vimentin are apparently able to undergo embr...
متن کاملCXCR4 Antagonist AMD3100 Accelerates Impaired Wound Healing in Diabetic Mice
The antagonism of CXC-chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) with AMD3100 improves cardiac performance after myocardial infarction by augmenting the recruitment of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) from the bone marrow to the regenerating vasculature. We investigated whether AMD3100 may accelerate diabetes-impaired wound healing through a similar mechanism. Skin wounds were made on the backs of leptin ...
