Approach to Kidney Allograft Dysfunction: A Brief Review.

It is important for providers caring for kidney transplant recipients to be familiar with the common causes of allograft dysfunction. Early detection of allograft dysfunction leads to timely management, with the goal of preventing or delaying progression to allograft failure. Although transplant rejection is always a concern, the differential diagnoses for allograft dysfunction are broad and include perioperative complications, infections, recurrent disease, and calcineurin nephrotoxicity.

Recent advances in bifunctional synthesis gas conversion to chemicals and fuels with a comparison to monofunctional processes.

In order to meet the climate goals of the Paris Agreement and limit the potentially catastrophic consequences of climate change, we must move away from the use of fossil feedstocks for the production of chemicals and fuels. The conversion of synthesis gas (a mixture of hydrogen, carbon monoxide and/or carbon dioxide) can contribute to this. Several reactions allow to convert synthesis gas to oxygenates (such as methanol), olefins or waxes.
