Unlabelled: Abstract Background and Purpose: Digital light processing-based hyperspectral imaging (DLP(®)-HSI) was adapted for use during laparoscopic surgery by coupling the spectral illumination source with a conventional laparoscopic light guide and incorporating a customized digital charge-coupled device camera for image acquisition. The system was used to characterize renal oxygenation during robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RALPN) in humans.
Patients And Methods: After Institutional Review Board approval, laparoscopic DLP-HSI was performed in consecutive patients undergoing RALPN at our institution. Time trends in relative tissue oxygen saturation (%HbO2) were descriptively analyzed. Associations between %HbO2 and patient age, comorbidities, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were investigated using the Kendall tau test.
Results: Laparoscopic DLP-HSI was performed in 18 patients between May 2011 and February 2012. Median (interquartile range; IQR) age was 55.9 (49-67.5) years. Of the patients, 10/18 (56%) were men and 12/18 (66.7%) had a history of hypertension, diabetes, and/or tobacco use. Median (IQR) %HbO2 before, during, and after ischemia was 60.8% (57.9-68.2%), 53.6% (46.8-55.1%), and 61.5% (54.9-67.6%), respectively. Baseline %HbO2 was inversely associated with preoperative eGFR (τ=-0.38; P=0.036), and eGFR at most recent follow-up (τ=-0.38; P=0.036). Baseline or ischemic %HbO2 did not correlate with hypertension, diabetes, and/or tobacco history. Younger patients (<56 years) had a lower median baseline %HbO2 (P=0.07) and a higher median preoperative eGFR (P=0.038), than their older counterparts.
Conclusion: The laparoscopic HSI system successfully characterized dynamic changes in renal oxygenation during RALPN. Intraoperative laparoscopic HSI outcomes have the potential to predict postoperative individual kidney function.

Acute kidney injury induced by stings from multiple wasps is a medical emergency and is a driving factor of acute renal dysfunction. Numerous studies have shown that mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mtROS) play a key role in ischemia-reperfusion injury-, cisplatin-, and sepsis-induced acute kidney injury. However, the role of mtROS and its underlying mechanisms in wasp-venom-induced acute kidney injury remain inconclusive.

Background And Objective: Mitochondria are crucial to the function of renal tubular cells, and their dynamic perturbation in many aspects is an important mechanism of diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) technology is a high-throughput sequencing analysis technique for RNA at the level of a single cell nucleus. Here, our DKD mouse kidney single-cell RNA sequencing conveys a more comprehensive mitochondrial profile, which helps us further understand the therapeutic response of this unique organelle family to drugs.

Background: Shortage of organ donors in the Republic of Korea has become a major problem. To address this, it has been questioned whether heart transplant (HTx) allocation should be modified to reduce priority of older patients. We aimed to evaluate post-HTx outcomes according to recipient age and specific pre-HTx conditions using a nationwide prospective cohort.

Dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) can be used to non-invasively estimate the blood flow of different organs via compartmental modeling. Out of different PET tracers, water labeled with the radioactive O isotope of oxygen (half-life of 2.04 min) is freely diffusable, and therefore, very well-suited for blood flow quantification.

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at increased risk of acute kidney injury following exposure to contrast media. We evaluated the effect of melatonin, a potent antioxidant, as a protective strategy against contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI), with a focus on molecular mechanisms. We randomized patients with an eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.
