AI Article Synopsis
- The study evaluates the impact of Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills on renal cell carcinoma patients post-surgery, comparing its effectiveness to standard interferon treatment.
- Results showed that patients taking the pills had higher clinical effectiveness, improved renal and immune function, and better overall quality of life compared to those receiving only interferon.
- The findings suggest that Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills not only enhance survival rates but also contribute to significant health improvements in renal cancer patients.
Article Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills on renal cell carcinoma patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection and their effects on renal function and immune function.
Methods: 106 patients with renal cell carcinoma who underwent retroperitoneal laparoscopic radical surgery in our hospital from March 2015 to February 2017 were selected, and they were divided into control group and treatment group. The control group was treated with interferon and the treatment group was treated with Danggui Beimu Kushen pills on the basis of the control group. The clinical efficacy, incidence of adverse reactions, survival rate, and the relationship with clinical stages were detected in the two groups. The renal function index levels, immune function index levels, and quality of life levels were measured in the two groups after treatment.
Results: Compared with the control group, the total clinical effective rate was increased, the abnormal renal function, abnormal liver function, and platelet decline were decreased, and the survival rate was significantly elevated in the treatment group. The patients with clinical stage I∼II' survival rate was increased, relative to patients with clinical stage III. After treatment, the levels of 2-MG, SCr, BUN, and CD8+ in the two groups were decreased, while the levels of CD3+, CD4+, and CD4+/CD8+ were increased. Moreover, the scores of physical function, social function, emotional function, role function, cognitive function, and total score of the two groups were improved. Compared with the control group, the treatment group changes were more obvious.
Conclusion: The Danggui Beimu Kushen Pill has significant clinical effects on the treatment of renal cancer, which can improve the clinical symptoms, enhance the immune function, restore the health renal function, improve the quality of life, prolong the survival time of patients, reduce the incidence of adverse reactions, and provide high safety.

Background: Closing the evidence-practice gap for the treatment of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is central to improving quality of care. Under the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) framework, we aimed to develop updated quality indicators (QIs) for the evaluation of quality of care and outcomes for patients with ACS.
Methods: A Working Group of experts including members of the ESC Clinical Practice Guidelines Task Force for ACS, Acute CardioVascular Care Association and European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions followed the ESC methodology for QI development.

RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) plays diverse roles in RNA metabolism and its deregulation contributes to tumor initiation and progression. Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is characterized by near ubiquitous loss of followed by mutations in epigenetic regulators , , and . Mutations in , a histone H3 lysine 36 trimethylase (H3K36me3), are associated with reduced survival, greater metastatic propensity, and metabolic reprogramming.

Background: As ferroptosis is a key factor in renal fibrosis (RF), iron deposition monitoring may help evaluating RF. The capability of quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) for detecting iron deposition in RF remains uncertain.
Purpose: To investigate the potential of QSM to detect iron deposition in RF.

Institute for Applied Human Physiology, Bangor University, Bangor, UK.
Purpose Of Review: In people living with kidney disease (KD) Fatigue is a whole-body tiredness that is not related to activity or exertion. Often self-reported, fatigue is a common and highly burdensome symptom, yet poorly defined and understood. While its mechanisms are complex, many fatigue-related factors may be altered by exercise and physical activity intervention.

Background: Deficiency of adiponectin and its downstream signaling may contribute to the pathogenesis of kidney injury in type 2 diabetes. Adiponectin activates intracellular signaling via adiponectin receptors 1 and 2 (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2), but the role of AdipoR-mediated signaling in glomerular injury in type 2 diabetes remains unknown.
Methods: The expression of AdipoR1 in the kidneys of people with type 2 diabetes and the expression of podocyte proteins or injury markers in the kidneys of AdipoR1-knockout (AdipoR1-KO) mice and immortalized AdipoR1-deficient human podocytes were investigated by immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting.
