Risk Factors and Treatments of Lymphoceles in Living Renal Transplants: A Single-Center Experience.

Objectives: This study aimed to determine interventions and identify risk factors for lymphocele formation following kidney transplant.

Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of 296 adult kidney transplants from 2010 to 2022 to investigate postoperative lymphocele formation. We divided patients into lymphocele cases and nonlymphocele cases.

Tetrabutylammonium Chlorite as an Efficient Oxidant for Controlled Oxidation of Sulfides to Sulfoxides.

Considering the demand for organosulfur materials and the challenges associated with currently used oxidation processes, in this study, we evaluated the counter-cation of sodium chlorite (Na+ClO2-) with tetrabutylammonium chloride (Bu4N+Cl-) to synthesise tetrabutylammonium chlorite (Bu4N+ClO2-). Bu4N+ClO2- exhibited good solubility in organic solvents like chloroform (1.6 g mL-1) and ethyl acetate (0.

Association between the High-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Efflux Capacity and the Long-term Prognosis in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease: A Meta-analysis.

Aim: We aimed to determine whether baseline high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC) at the time of coronary angiography (CAG) could serve as a prognostic marker for future major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) through a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Methods: The MEDLINE, Cochrane, and Embase databases were used for data collection. As of April 2024, 2,871 studies have been identified.

Complement Receptor 1 Enhancement in Recurrent Membranous Nephropathy Following Kidney Transplantation: A Case Report.

Membranous nephropathy (MN) recurs in some kidney allograft patients, and recurrence increases graft failure rates. We present a unique case of recurrent MN in first and second allografts showing glomerular capillary wall-positivity for complement receptor 1 (CR1) consistent with immunoglobulin G (IgG). A man in his late 20s developed MN and started hemodialysis.
