The revolutionary innovations in biology and information technology influenced many medical and health disciplines. Although it is lagging behind others, renal medicine entered this chain of events. Nephrology and renal transplantation have many inherent challenges that needed to be addressed innovatively to receive these new frontiers in medicine. In a connected high biotech future, the applications of regenerative medicine, nanotechnology, genomics, artificial intelligence, 3D organ bioprinting, and smartphone applications will reshape the practice and research of renal medicine. Certainly, this will have a positive impact on patients' outcomes and the health-care system. These changes are coming, but with new challenges such as excess costs, and many moral challenges. Providing precise equitable care with maintaining patient's privacy and values will be difficult. In this review, we provide insights into future approaches to renal care.

MicroRNA-668 alleviates renal fibrosis through PPARα/PGC-1α pathway.
Eur J Med Res
December 2024
Department of Nephrology, The Third Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, Changsha, China.
Background: The involvement of microRNA-668 (miR-668) in the onset and progression of renal fibrosis remains unclear. To this end, we aimed to explore the relevant mechanism of miR-668 in renal fibrosis.
Methods: C57BL/6 J male mice were randomly divided into sham-operated, unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO), and UUO-fenofibrate groups.
Association between serum albumin levels at admission and clinical outcomes in pediatric intensive care units: a multi-center study.

Department of Pediatric Intensive Care, Faculty of Medicine, Cukurova University, Adana, Turkey.
Background: Albumin, a vital component in regulating human blood oncotic pressure, plays an important role in the prediction of prognosis in pediatric patients.Previous research identified significant differences in serum albumin levels of healthy and critically ill children.
Methods: The present study aims to investigate the correlation between albumin levels measured during pediatric intensive care unit(PICU) admission and clinical outcomes.

Department of Endocrinology, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Jinan, Shandong, 250001, People's Republic of China. Electronic address:
Background And Aim: Prior research has established a relationship between homocysteine (Hcy) and serum uric acid (SUA) levels; however, the precise mechanisms underlying this association remain unclear. The objective of this research was to explore the correlation between SUA and Hcy and to evaluate the possible role of kidney function as a mediator in the connection between SUA and Hcy.
Methods And Results: Consecutive enrollment of 16870 participants aged 20-60 years was conducted at the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University.
Fluid overload trajectories and mortality in hemodialysis patients.

Pregnancy leads to significant changes in renal physiology which results in increased in glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and enhanced protein excretion. These changes may continue in the postnatal period and might be observed for five to six months after birth. Once confirmed, proteinuria warrants investigation and close surveillance.
