Efficacy and safety of telitacicept in IgA nephropathy: a real-world study.

Ren Fail

December 2025

Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.

Background: IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common primary glomerular disease in the world, and specific therapeutic methods for IgAN are limited. Telitacicept is a humanized fusion protein composed of a transmembrane activator and calcium-modulating cyclophilin ligand interactor receptor and human IgG.

Aim: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of telitacicept in adult patients with IgAN in a real-world study.

Background: Several studies have investigated long-term kidney outcomes in survivors of Wilms tumor (WT). However, many have small sample sizes, and there is a wide variation in reported outcomes. The aim of this study is to investigate the long-term kidney outcomes in survivors of WT (S-WT), including those patients considered to be at high risk for poor kidney outcomes, and using updated estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) equations.

Evaluation of renal elasticity by shear wave elastography in children with Familial Mediterranean Fever.

Pediatr Nephrol

January 2025

Department of Radiology, Bursa Yuksek Ihtisas Egitim Ve Arastirma Hastanesi, Bursa, Turkey.

Background: Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is a genetic disorder that can cause kidney damage. Shear wave elastography (SWE), a non-invasive method, was used to evaluate the decrease in renal tissue elasticity as a predictive parameter for amyloidosis. This study aimed to examine the changes in renal elasticity in patients with FMF using the renal SWE measurement method.

Prediction of ischemic stroke in patients with H-type hypertension based on biomarker.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Department of Clinical Laboratory, Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University, Anzhen Road No. 2, Chaoyang District, Beijing, 100029, China.

Hypertension combined with hyperhomocysteinemia significantly raises the risk of ischemic stroke. Our study aimed to develop and validate a biomarker-based prediction model for ischemic stroke in Hyperhomocysteinemia-type (H-type) hypertension patients. We retrospectively included 3,305 patients in the development cohort, and externally validated in 103 patients from another cohort.
