We reviewed our experience with 100 consecutive cadaveric transplants of kidneys from satisfactory donors with respect to immediate function after transplantation. The management was the same in all patients except that 66 of them received 1,000 ml of 0.9 N saline IV preoperatively. The overall incidence of acute tubular necrosis (ATN) was 23.2%, but the incidence of ATN in the group of patients who received saline was 7.6%, as compared to 53% in those that did not (P less than .001). There was no other significant difference between the two groups. We conclude that when cadaver kidneys are harvested and preserved under satisfactory conditions, preoperative volume expansion markedly lowers the incidence of posttransplantation ATN, suggesting that the recipient volume status is an important consideration.

Minimal change disease (MCD) accounts for 10 - 15% of idiopathic nephrotic syndromes in adults. Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is rarely ascribed as a cause of MCD and was previously associated with interferon-based therapy. MCD in treatment-naïve chronic HCV infection is extremely rare, with only 3 cases reported in the literature.

Contrast-induced acute kidney injury is a common complication marked by reduced kidney function within 48  hours of contrast administration. The aim of this study was to evaluate renal function, anatomy, and molecular changes at 24  hours, 48  hours, and 72  hours post-iodinated contrast media (ICM) administration. This true-experimental study used a post-test-only control group design.

Narciclasine (Ncs) was effective in sepsis management due to its antioxidant properties. The present study dissected the protective effects of Ncs against sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) and the molecular mechanisms. The SA-AKI mice were developed using cecum ligation and puncture and pretreated with Ncs and adenoviruses.

Unlabelled: Periodontitis is closely related to renal health, but the specific influence of (), a key pathogen in periodontitis, on the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) in mice has not been fully elucidated. In our study, AKI was induced in mice through ischemia-reperfusion injury while administering oral infection with . Comprehensive analyses were conducted, including 16S rRNA sequencing, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) metabolomics, and transcriptome sequencing.

Solid organ transplantation has emerged as a crucial intervention in the field of medicine. During transplantation, our human body perceives the organ as an exogenous entity or graft, initiating an immune reaction to eliminate it. This immune response ultimately culminates in the rejection of the graft.
