Filter by:Methodology Patients A total of 128 patients with sepsis and AKI who were admitted to several centers including Huzhou first people's Hospital combined with Wuxing People's Hospital, Linghu people's Hospital and Nanxun people's Hospital from November 1, 2021 to October 31, 2022 were included in the study. And all patients were diagnosed by clinical examination, Diagnostic criteria sepsis was diagnosed according to the international Sepsis-3 for patients with suspected infection using the quickly Sepsis related organ failure assessment (qSOFA). The qSOFA score consists of only three criteria: Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) <15, systolic blood pressure ≤ 100 mmHg, and respiratory rate ≥22/min. A qSOFA score of 2 or more points indicates suspected sepsis. Criteria for AKI was defined according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO), by the presence of one of the following: ①Increase in SCr by ≥ 0.3mg/dl (≥26.5 μ mol/L) within 48h；② Renal impairment is known or increase in SCr by ≥50% within 7days; ③ Oliguria for ≥4 hours. All patients were authorized by their families to sign informed consent, and the study was approved by the ethics committee of the hospital. Inclusion criteria: ①18-65 years old; ② The hospital survival time was more than 48 hours, and the medical records were complete; ③There is no history of vitamin B6 use in the recent period of admission (within 2 weeks before admission). Exclusion criteria: ①Patients with chronic renal insufficiency or renal failure in the past; ②Related renal injury caused by reasons other than sepsis; ③At the time of admission to ICU, there was cardiac failure or cardiogenic shock in combination with sepsis; ④Patients who use nephrotoxic drugs or contrast agents; ⑤Previous kidney transplantation; ⑥Patients with restrictive use of positive inotropic drugs (such as left ventricular outflow tract stenosis); ⑦Age<18 or>65; ⑧pregnant woman. Treatment 128 patients were divided into experimental and control group by random number table method, 64 patients in each group. Both groups were given routine treatment of sepsis and corresponding treatment of primary disease. The Patients in experimental group were given vitamin B6 injection 300mg/d (100mg/2ml× 3) intravenous injection, the course of treatment is one week or until the patient dies. That in control group were injected with 0.9% sodium chloride solution 6 ml intravenously. Assessment The general clinical data of the two groups were recorded, including age, sex, acute physiology and chronic health status scoring system II (APACHE II), qSOFA, and the constituent ratio of primary disease before treatment. The inflammatory reaction indexes of the two groups were detected before and on the 7th day of treatment, including Interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 8 (IL-8), tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) and endothelin-1 (ET-1). After collecting 5ml of fasting elbow vein blood from two groups of patients, the serum was separated by centrifugation (centrifugation radius: 3cm, rotation speed: 2000r/min, time: 10min), and then detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). ELISA kits for IL-6 (ab178013), IL-8 (ab214030), and TNF-a(ab181241) were purchased from abcam company. ELISA kit for ET-1 (K7429-100) was purchased from BioVision. All ELISA experiments were performed according to the kit instructions. The oxidative stress response indexs of the two groups were detected before and on the 7th day of treatment, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA). The xanthine oxidase method is used to detect SOD, the DTNB method is used to detect GSH, and the thiobarbituric acid method is used to detect MDA. The renal function indexs before and after treatment were detected before and on the 7th day of treatment, including the blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and serum creatinine (sCr) and renal resistance index (RRI). RRI was detected by ultrasound. And the clinical data, including the rate of renal replacement therapy, ICU length of stay, total hospitalization expenses, and 28-d mortality, were recorded. Statistical analysis All measurements were expressed as mean ± standard deviation (x ± s). And the counting datas were expressed in the form of percentage [n (%)]. The statistical SPSS 23.0 software were performed using the two samples t-test and adjusted chi-square test for the two groups. P-value,0.05 was considered to be statistically significant.
Part I (bioequivalence) will evaluate the bioequivalence of the Oversea Manufactured Sample (used in the MediBeacon Phase 3 Study 100-103; NCT05425719) and Domestic Manufactured Sample in Single Intravenous Dose of MB-102 (Relmapirazin) in healthy Chinese adults. Part II (efficacy) will evaluate the performance of the MediBeacon Transdermal GFR Measurement System and Domestic Manufactured Sample of MB-102 (Relmapirazin) for Evaluation of Kidney Function in Chinese participants.
An epidemic of chronic kidney disease is occurring in laborers who undertake physical work outdoors in hot conditions. The reason for this is largely unknown, but may be related to kidney dysfunction caused by increases in body temperature and dehydration that elicit oxidative stress and inflammation in the renal tubules. The purpose of this study is to determine whether hydration status modifies the development of renal oxidative stress and inflammation.
Severe heat strain arising from intense physical work under climate conditions that does not allow sufficient heat dissipation may lead to heat stroke. This severe conditions is hypothesized to be secondary to increased gut permeability and leakage of bacterial toxins across the gut membrane, stimulating a systematic inflammatory response and associated organ injury. Repeated such sub-clinical increases in gut permeability has been suggested to contribute to the high burden of chronic kidney disease among heat-stressed workers. Many marathon runners experience a transient increase in kidney injury biomarkers while running. Probiotics have been studied as a way to decrease gut permeability and reduce systemic inflammation in many settings, including in athletes . However, no study has measured renal outcomes among workers or athletes performing strenuous activity. This is of interest as it could test the hypothesis that gut-induced inflammation is a driver of kidney injury during heat stress, and could point to a possible intervention to add on to efforts to relieve heat strain. In the present study, recreational or professional runners will be randomized to take a probiotic supplement or placebo during a 4 week period preceding a strenuous physical exercise (minimum 21 km run). Urine samples will be taken before and after the run, and analyzed for markers of renal injury and inflammation.
The study aims to investigate the rationale for LPN in patients with high-complexity renal tumors in terms of oncologic and functional outcomes.
Prospective, monocentric, single arm, observational PMCF - Study on the Performance and Safety of Double-Shank Titanium Ligation Clip in Urology (Prostatectomy and Nephrectomy)
An epidemic of chronic kidney disease is occurring in laborers who undertake physical work outdoors in hot conditions. The reason for this is unknown, but may be related to kidney dysfunction caused by increases in body temperature and dehydration. The current heat stress recommendations for workers were not developed with regards for kidney health. The purpose of this study is to determine if the current recommendations protect against kidney dysfunction.
Given the high recurrence of urolithiasis in patients, the search for less aggressive and preventive treatments is increasingly necessary. Renalof® is presented as an alternative to herbal medicine being a product that, due to its diuretic and demineralization properties of kidney stones, has been widely used in this patient population, disintegrating and eliminating calcium oxalate and struvite stones in a painless in the genitourinary system. With the objective of determining the efficacy of this therapy, an observational, prospective, randomized, single-blind, two-arm study was carried out: treatment group with Renalof® and control group, placebo.
Performing the nephrectomy by laparoscopy has decrease the incidence of postoperative pain, but there are still some patients who describe a severe pain after this surgery. Regional techniques allow a better recovery quality and adequate- managed pain control.
The authors hypothesize that the SARS-CoV-2 virus can affect the kidneys, causing them to be damaged. The present study aims to explain the mechanisms of kidney injury in patients diagnosed with COVID-19.
