Introduction: Sepsis is a syndrome of physiological, pathological, and biochemical disorders with several processes co-occurring; reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and apoptosis are 2 of them. Succinate is a Krebs cycle intermediate that is oxydized in complex II of the mitochondria. This study aims to investigate the influence of succinate infusion on these processes.

Background: Guidelines for celiac disease (CD) testing recommend total serum IgA determination alongside anti-transglutaminase IgA antibodies. It is not well known if lack of serum IgA determination is a common finding in clinical practice.

Aim: To determine the prevalence of lack of serum IgA determination among patients screened for celiac disease.

Background: In Fabry nephropathy, podocyturia is an early event that may lead to glomerulosclerosis and chronic kidney disease. The glycocalyx is a potential podocyte damaged compartment in glomerulopathies. We investigated glycocalyx podocalyxin in urinary detached podocytes compared with cytoplasmic synaptopodin.

In sepsis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production is increased. This process takes place mainly within the electron transport chain. ROS production is part of the pathophysiology of multiple organ failure in sepsis.

Background: Podocyturia may determine the evolution to podocytopenia, glomerulosclerosis, and renal failure. According to the Oxford classification of IgA nephropathy (IgAN), the S1 lesion describes glomerulosclerosis. Urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) participates in podocyte attachment, while CD80 increases in glomerulosclerosis.
