Both acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease are risk factors for many outcomes of gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB). These are associated with higher mortality, longer hospitalisation, and greater need for transfusion in case of overt GIB. Our study aimed to further evaluate the role of kidney function in several clinical outcomes of GIB patients.

Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune and inflammatory disorder that leads to cartilage and bone deterioration. This inflammatory activity causes extra-articular manifestations, including the acceleration of the atherosclerotic process. However, the exact causes of this accelerated process are under investigation.

However, the protection ratio differs for the lead equivalent content and shape of the lenses. This study aimed to examine factors effective in reducing the lens dose by measuring the protection ratio of scattered radiation due to changes in the surgeon's face orientation, various lead equivalents, and shapes.

To investigate the influence of the position and quantity of thiophene or acetylene groups on the photoelectric properties of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), density functional theory (DFT) were employed to simulate five zinc porphyrin dye molecules (T-3, T-3-D, T-3-A, T-3-AD, and T-3-ace). The optimized geometry indicated that T-3-ace possessed superior planar properties, attributed to incorporating the acetylene groups, facilitating the charge transfer process. The lower lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy levels of T-3-ace and T-3-D suggested that introducing thiophene or acetylene groups on the donor side enhanced the electron absorption capability of the dyes.

Background: Arteriovenous (AV) fistulas are the preferred access for dialysis but have a high incidence of failure. This study aims to understand the crosstalk between skeletal muscle catabolism and AV fistula maturation failure.
Methods: Skeletal muscle metabolism and AV fistula maturation were evaluated in mice with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
