Optimization of a micro-scale air-liquid-interface model of human proximal airway epithelium for moderate throughput drug screening for SARS-CoV-2.

Background: Many respiratory viruses attack the airway epithelium and cause a wide spectrum of diseases for which we have limited therapies. To date, a few primary human stem cell-based models of the proximal airway have been reported for drug discovery but scaling them up to a higher throughput platform remains a significant challenge. As a result, most of the drug screening assays for respiratory viruses are performed on commercial cell line-based 2D cultures that provide limited translational ability.

Department of Radiology, School of Medicine, Poursina Hospital, Guilan University of Medical Sciences, Rasht, Iran.
Background: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a known risk factor for End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) and Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD). Renal Doppler Ultrasound (RDU) can detect early renal involvement in CKD using the Renal Resistive Index (RRI).
Aims: This study aimed to investigate the effects of risk factors and clinical complications associated with CKD on RRI among patients with different stages of CKD.
Transplant 101: Helping Patients Navigate the Complexity of the Kidney Transplant Waitlist.

Kidney Transplant Coordinator, Atrium Health, Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, NC.
Patients in need of a kidney transplant have the option of receiving a kidney from a living donor or a deceased donor. Patients in the United States who do not have an available living donor typically wait on the deceased donor waiting list for an average of three to five years, although some patients may wait longer. The waiting list is very complex and intended to allocate kidneys in a fair and equitable manner.

Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee.
Background: Ex-vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) has potential to expand donor lung utilization, evaluate allograft viability, and mitigate ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, trends in EVLP use and recipient outcomes are unknown on a national scale. We examined trends in EVLP use and recipient outcomes in the United States.

Electronic address:
Background: Liver transplantation (LT) is the main indication for the treatment of end-stage liver disease but have to face organ shortages. Using marginal donors is an option to increase the donor pool. Previous studies showed that the graft procured using N-acetylcysteine (NAC) provides a longer survival compared to perfusion with standard solutions, especially in marginal liver donors.
