Article Synopsis
- A study aimed to validate a previously proposed prognostic histologic index for C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) by analyzing kidney biopsy findings in a new patient cohort from Spain.
- The research included 111 patients from various nephrology departments, with assessments focusing on demographic data, clinical parameters, and specific C3G scoring systems.
- Results showed that 43% of patients developed kidney failure, with significant predictors identified, including eGFR, proteinuria, and specific histological features like tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis.
Objective: To investigate the effects of an alternative peritoneal dialysis (PD) solution composed of a lactate/ bicarbonate (Lac/Bic) mixture (35/2 mmol/L), pH 7.0, on the appearance of cancer antigen 125 (CA125) in the peritoneal effluent.
Methods: Eight stable PD patients received a conventional solution containing 35 mmol/L lactate (Lac) for 11.
