The Etiology of Kidney Failure in Indonesia: A Multicenter Study in Tertiary-Care Centers in Jakarta.

Background: Despite a large number of patients requiring dialysis, the etiology of kidney failure is poorly documented in Indonesia. With the aim to reduce the disease burden, it is essential to obtain more insight in the etiology of chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Objectives: In the present study, we attempted to investigate the primary renal disease of kidney failure patients from five tertiary-care centers in Jakarta.

Factors Associated with Sarcopenia in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Background: Sarcopenia is associated with worse outcomes in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. Differences in criteria and methods used to diagnose sarcopenia, results in a wide range of prevalence. Factors associated with sarcopenia in MHD have not been well-studied.

Management of COVID-19 in Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Single-Center Case Series.

Background: Kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) were reported to be at higher risk of developing severe coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19). Despite being one of the most impacted countries, little is known about KTRs with COVID-19 in Indonesia. This report aims to explore the management strategies and short-term clinical outcomes of KTRs with COVID-19 in an Indonesian transplant center.

Long-term outcomes and prognostic factors in kidney transplant recipients in Jakarta, Indonesia: a cohort study.

Objectives: To determine the long-term survival rates and prognostic factors in kidney transplant (KT) recipients in Jakarta, Indonesia.

Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Setting: A KT centre in Jakarta.

The Improvement of Patient's Quality of Life After Kidney Transplantation in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Indonesia.

Objectives: Kidney transplantation has become the chosen kidney replacement therapy for end stage chronic kidney disease. In Indonesia, no study about quality of life (QoL) in kidney transplantation recipient after surgery has been done. This study aims to determine whether there is a significant difference in the recipient's QoL before and after kidney transplantation surgery.

The Effect of Hyperfiltration on Kidney Function in Living Donor Kidney Transplantation: A Prospective Cohort Study.

Background: living kidney donation is a safe medical procedure. Kidney function after donation is crucial for donors' health and quality of life. Kidney hyperfiltration is a compensatory mechanism, which will preserve kidney function after unilateral nephrectomy.

Correlation between central arterial stiffness and handgrip strength in chronic hemodialysis patients.

This study aimed to find the correlation between central arterial stiffness and handgrip strength (HGS). We conducted a cross-sectional study at the Dialysis Unit of Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo General National Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia, from April to May 2018.

7 Years Experience of Living Donor Kidney Transplantation in Indonesia: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Background: kidney transplantation has been developing rapidly in Indonesia in recent years, yet data on transplants' characteristics and survival is still unavailable. In Indonesia, only living donors are permitted. Living donor are advantageous, but challenging to recruit.
