Background: Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), is often detected late due to its asymptomatic nature in the early stage of the disease. Overproduction of reactive oxygen species contributes to various pathological processes through oxidative stress (OS), impacting on cellular structures and functions with previous studies suggesting a link between OS and CKD progression. This study investigated the association between serum peroxiredoxin-4 (Prx4), a biomarker of oxidative stress, and the development of CKD in the general population.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) after open thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repairs (TAAA) is a common postoperative complication, associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Early detection and management of the kidney tissue damage remains of paramount importance. The aim of this prospectively conducted, observational trial was to evaluate the clinical applicability of Proenkephalin A 119-159 (penKid) for the detection of postoperative AKI.

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) prohibits athletes from using recombinant growth hormone (GH). The validated method used in antidoping laboratories for the direct detection of exogenous GH in serum requires two immunoluminometric assays (ILMAs): The first mainly measures the concentration of the full-length (22 kDa) form of GH (recGH), and the second measures concentrations of multiple GH fragments produced by the pituitary gland (22 kDa, 20 kDa and other forms) (pitGH). The tube-by-tube analysis is laborious.

Objective: Diabetes is the leading cause of nontraumatic lower-extremity amputations (LEAs). Identification of patients with foot ulcers at risk for amputation remains clinically challenging. Plasma copeptin, a surrogate marker of vasopressin, is associated with the risk of cardiovascular and renal complications in diabetes.
