Purpose: The effects of two types of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors on renal function remain unclear. Thus, we investigated the effect of anagliptin (ANA) and sitagliptin (SITA) on renal function in patients with type 2 diabetes who participated in the randomized evaluation of ANA versus SITA on low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) in diabetes (REASON) trial.

Patients And Methods: We measured the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) before and after the REASON trial. ANA 200 mg/day was administered to 177 patients for 52 weeks, while SITA 50 mg/day was given to 176 patients. We investigated the relationship between differences in renal function and differences in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels, LDL-C levels, and blood pressure (BP).

Results: No significant differences were found in baseline eGFR and UACR between the two groups. The eGFR levels were significantly decreased in both groups; however, the UACR level was unchanged in the ANA group but elevated in the SITA group, although the difference did not reach significance between the two groups. The difference in eGFR was affected by the differences in HbA1c level and BP, and the difference in the UACR was affected by the differences in LDL-C level and BP, which were reduced only in the ANA group.

Conclusion: These findings imply that the effects of DPP-4 inhibitors on renal function, especially on UACR, may be different between the types of DPP-4 inhibitors.

Objective: To evaluate the postoperative complications and prognosis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in a solitary kidney after irreversible electroporation (IRE).

Materials And Methods: A total of 8 patients with 9 RCCs in a solitary kidney treated with computed tomography (CT)-guided IRE from February 2017 to September 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Follow-up included contrast-enhanced CT or magnetic resonance imaging examinations at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, and each year after IRE and the evaluation of the incidence of postoperative complications, renal function changes, local tumor recurrence, and metastasis.

Aims: Whether prior treatment with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) modifies efficacy and safety of sacubitril/valsartan (Sac/Val) in patients with heart failure (HF) and ejection fraction (EF) >40% is unclear, thus Sac/Val according to ACEi/ARB status at baseline was assessed.

Methods And Results: This was a pre-specified analysis of Prospective comparison of ARNI with ARB Given following stabiLization In DEcompensated HFpEF (PARAGLIDE-HF), a double-blind, randomized controlled trial of Sac/Val versus valsartan, categorizing patients according to baseline ACEi/ARB status. The primary endpoint was time-averaged proportional change in N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) from baseline through weeks 4 and 8.

Background: Therapeutic drug monitoring-informed teicoplanin dosage adjustments are recommended for safe and effective use. The authors' group previously reported that only half of children reached the recommended blood concentration range at the standard teicoplanin loading dose. It has been suggested that higher loading doses are necessary; however, the usefulness and safety of high-dose loading in pediatric patients in clinical practice are unknown.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with low-grade inflammation, which can be exacerbated by renal artery stenosis (RAS) and renovascular hypertension, potentially worsening outcomes through pro-inflammatory cytokines. This study investigated whether mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) could reduce fat inflammation in pigs with MetS and RAS. Twenty-four pigs were divided into Lean (control), MetS, MetS + RAS, and MetS + RAS + MSCs.

Increased Risk of End-Stage Kidney Disease After Traumatic Amputation: Nationwide Cohort Study.

Healthcare (Basel)

January 2025

Supportive Care Center/Department of Family Medicine, Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seoul 06351, Republic of Korea.

Background: Amputation confers disabilities upon patients and is associated with substantial cardiovascular and metabolic morbidity and mortality. We aimed to compare the incidence of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) between individuals with amputation and the general population.

Methods: A population-based retrospective cohort study was performed using the Nationwide Health Insurance Service database for the period between 2010 and 2018.
