Background: Interfering RNA therapies (RNAi) have changed the management of patients with hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1); data in dialysis remain scarce.

Results: A PH1 teenager undergoing intensive hemodiafiltration received lumasiran. POx levels almost halved during the loading phase (98 to 52 µmol/L), but rebound occurred when doses were quarterly-spaced, with POx at 94 µmol/L at 5 months. Lumasiran injections were therefore performed monthly, allowing adequate POx control (52 µmol/L) and isolated kidney transplantation. We also evaluated POx in 26 non-PH1 children with current dialysis techniques at a median(range) age of 10.9 (2.6-17.0) years, time on dialysis 14 (0-52) months, and POx 35 (8-125) µmol/L; residual diuresis was associated with lower POx. Circulating glycolate levels were normal in non-PH1 patients.

Conclusion: Intensification of lumasiran therapy is possible in dialysis and improves POx levels before kidney transplantation; POx levels in non-PH1 pediatrics patients in dialysis are provided to improve decision making in transplantation.

Lumpy skin disease (LSD) is an infectious disease affecting large ruminants, caused by the lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV). It is characterized by symptoms such as hyperthermia, emaciation, lymphadenopathy, and skin nodules. Pregnant animals affected by LSD often experience abortions and may develop infertility syndrome, while affected males can become sterile.

Acid rain (AR), a secondary pollutant, a product of sulfur and nitrogen oxides fusion with the atmosphere's water vapor, comes on earth in the form of rain, poses a significant environmental threat, and affects soil characteristics and plant morphology, ultrastructure, physiology, and yield. However, its effects on aromatic and medicinal plants remain insufficiently studied. Due to their low side effects and high efficacy, the use of herbal plants for disease remedy preparation is found globally and their consumption increases year after year.

This study focused on boron (B), an essential micronutrient for plant development that becomes toxic at high concentrations, adversely affecting plant growth and yield. Phosphite (PHI) is recognized for its easy absorption by plant leaves and roots and its well-documented positive effects on plant growth. The effects of phosphite (PHI-1, 2 g L⁻; PHI-2, 4 g L⁻) under boron stress (B, 2 mM) were evaluated in Zea mays.
