This study aimed to investigate the impact of nationwide nonpharmaceutical interventions against coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on the incidence of pneumonia (PCP) in kidney transplant recipients. The monthly incidence of PCP during the COVID-19 period decreased significantly compared to that of the pre-COVID-19 period in kidney transplant recipients.

Employing a Haemodynamic Score to Predict Acute Kidney Injury in Infants With Patent Ductus Arteriosus.
Acta Paediatr

Department of Paediatrics, RCSI University of Medicine & Health Sciences, Dublin 2, Ireland.
Aim: This study hypothesised that infants with a haemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA) as defined by a validated score have a higher incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI).
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted including infants < 29 weeks' gestation, born at the Rotunda Hospital. The El-Khuffash patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) severity score was applied following an echocardiographic assessment.

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at a high risk of developing secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT), which may cause organ dysfunction and increase patient mortality. The main clinical interventions for CKD-SHPT involve calcium supplements to boost absorption, but ineffective for some patients, and the reasons remain unclear. Here, CKD mice are divided into high and low groups based on intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels.

Department of Pediatrics (Hematology Ward), The Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, Hefei, China.
Background And Objectives: High-quality ABO antibody titre testing is required for ABO-incompatible haematopoietic stem cell transplantation and kidney transplantation. To assess the feasibility of automated ABO titration as an alternative to manual and semi-automatic titration during the peri-transplant period, a comparative study was conducted internally in a transfusion medicine laboratory.
Materials And Methods: This study was performed in two stages.

Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a prevalent cause of acute kidney injury, however, the regulatory mechanisms of miR-374b-5p in renal IRI remain poorly understood. We established hypoxia/reoxidation (H/R)-induced renal injury models using HK-2 and TCMK-1 cells, as well as an ischemia-reperfusion (I/R)-induced mouse model. Renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs) viability and apoptosis were assessed using CCK-8, flow cytometry, and TUNEL assays.

Solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs) suffer more frequent and more severe infections due to their compromised immune responses resulting from immunosuppressive treatments designed to prevent organ rejection. Pharmacological immunosuppression can adversely affect immune responses to vaccination. A cohort of kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) received their third dose of ancestral, monovalent COVID-19 vaccine in the context of a clinical trial and antibody responses to the vaccine strain, as well as two Omicron variants BA.
