Integration of a Radiology Information System (RIS) and a Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) reduces the risk of inconsistent data by reducing interfaces among databases that contain largely redundant information. Furthermore, RIS/PACS integration is the basis for a filmless radiology facility. Web technology is based on international standards and supplies the main features for the RIS/PACS integration task based on a client/server model. This article presents a web-based system developed to manage and distribute images and diagnostic information within the University Hospital of Ribeirão Preto (HCRP) at the University of Sao Paulo.

January 2025

NHC Key Laboratory of Hormones and Development, Chu Hsien-I Memorial Hospital and Tianjin Institute of Endocrinology, Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin, China.

Background: In acute and chronic renal inflammatory diseases, the activation of inflammatory cells is involved in the defect of erythropoietin (EPO) production. Ras guanine nucleotide-releasing protein-4 (RasGRP4) promotes renal inflammatory injury in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Our study aimed to investigate the role and mechanism of RasGRP4 in the production of renal EPO in diabetes.
