Aims: To assess the effect of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor dapagliflozin on natriuresis, blood pressure (BP) and volume status in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) without diabetes.

Materials And Methods: We performed a mechanistic open-label study (DAPASALT) to evaluate the effects of dapagliflozin on 24-hour sodium excretion, 24-hour BP, extracellular volume, and markers of volume status during a standardized sodium diet (150 mmol/d) in six patients with CKD. In parallel, in a placebo-controlled double-blind crossover trial (DIAMOND), we determined the effects of 6 weeks of dapagliflozin on markers of volume status in 53 patients with CKD.

Results: In DAPASALT (mean age 65 years, mean estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] 39.4 mL/min/1.73 m , median urine albumin:creatinine ratio [UACR] 111 mg/g), dapagliflozin did not change 24-hour sodium and volume excretion during 2 weeks of treatment. Dapagliflozin was associated with a modest increase in 24-hour glucose excretion on Day 4, which persisted at Day 14 and reversed to baseline after discontinuation. Mean 24-hour systolic BP decreased by -9.3 (95% confidence interval [CI] -19.1, 0.4) mmHg after 4 days and was sustained at Day 14 and at wash-out. Renin, angiotensin II, urinary aldosterone and copeptin levels increased from baseline. In DIAMOND (mean age 51 years, mean eGFR 59.0 mL/min/1.73 m , median UACR 608 mg/g), compared to placebo, dapagliflozin increased plasma renin (38.5 [95% CI 7.4, 78.8]%), aldosterone (19.1 [95% CI -5.9, 50.8]%), and copeptin levels (7.3 [95% CI 0.1, 14.5] pmol/L).

Conclusions: During a standardized sodium diet, dapagliflozin decreased BP but did not increase 24-hour sodium and volume excretion. The lack of increased natriuresis and diuresis may be attributed to activation of intra-renal compensatory mechanisms to prevent excessive water loss.

Background And Objective: Vancomycin is a glycopeptide antibiotic used for the treatment of severe gram-positive infections. Despite decades of clinical experience, optimized dosing for vancomycin in pediatric populations still warrants further investigation. Patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) after cardiac surgery are often treated with vancomycin in case of (suspected) infection.

Background: There is currently no consensus on the surgical treatment of lumbar spondylolysis in young adults, and the nonunion rate remains relatively high even after surgery. Therefore, in this study, we proposed a modified intravertebral screw-rod fixation technique within a single vertebral segment and investigated the clinical efficacy of this modified fixation system combined with autologous cancellous bone grafting in the treatment of lumbar spondylolysis in young adults.

Methods: This study included 28 young adults with lumbar spondylolysis who were treated at our center between 2021 and 2023.

Expression of PRAME in high-grade serous carcinoma is associated with higher residual disease volume and Occludin expression.

Background: Patients with high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) are commonly diagnosed at late disease stages and after primary tumors have disseminated in the peritoneum. The overexpression of tight junction proteins has been associated with poor prognosis in this setting, potentially reflecting the tumor´s adaptive changes in the disease cascade.

Methods: By performing immunohistochemistry in a large single-center cohort of a total of 705 HGSC, we test the hypothesis that the protein expression of PReferentially expressed Antigen of MElanoma (PRAME) contains prognostic, predictive or clinically translatable information.

This study investigated the effects of dietary lycopene supplementation on semen quality, testicular histology, antioxidant capacity, and reproductive hormone levels in aging breeder roosters. A total of 96 roosters were randomly divided into four groups and supplemented with 0, 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg of lycopene for six weeks. Lycopene significantly improved semen volume, sperm concentration, motility, viability, and morphological parameters at all doses (P < 0.

The discrepant effect of blood glucose on the risk of early and late lung injury: a national cohort study.

Article Synopsis
  • This study aimed to explore the link between glycemic control and lung health using data from 5,610 participants in the NHANES survey from 2007-2012, focusing on respiratory symptoms and lung function tests.
  • Results indicated that a 1% increase in blood glucose was negatively correlated with lung function, leading to reduced forced expiratory volume (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC), along with a higher risk of breathing difficulties and mortality for those with restrictive lung disease.
  • Improved glycemic control was associated with early markers of lung damage, whereas poor control correlated with more severe lung dysfunction, emphasizing the importance of managing blood glucose levels for respiratory health.
