Induction of sepsis in a rat model by the cecal ligation and puncture technique. Application for the study of experimental acute renal failure.

Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response to infection, and its occurrence is associated with a poor prognosis in the context of multiorgan dysfunction syndrome (MODS). Although there are several animal models for the study of its etiology, the cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) model has been considered the "Gold standard" because it shows a high degree of similarity to the progression of human sepsis. Currently, it is one of the most frequently chosen options to search for therapeutic alternatives to diminish the progression and organ damage induced by sepsis.

Piplartine alleviates sepsis-induced acute kidney injury by inhibiting TSPO-mediated macrophage pyroptosis.

Sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (SI-AKI) is the most common organ dysfunction of sepsis, characterized with prolonged hospitalization periods and significantly elevated mortality rates. Piplartine (PLG), an alkaloid extracted from Piper longum within the Piperaceae family, has exhibited diverse pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory, anti-atherosclerotic, and anti-tumor effects. Herein, we investigated whether the PLG could reverse SI-AKI and explore its possible anti-inflammatory mechanisms.

Impaired renal function can influence biomarker levels through mechanisms involving blood-brain barrier integrity and clearance pathways; however, the impact of variations within normal renal function remains unclear. The main aim of this study was to determine whether adjustment for the specific level of renal function is necessary when renal function remains within physiological levels. We studied n = 183 patients (NID n = 122; other neurological diseases n = 39; somatoform controls n = 22) who underwent lumbar puncture at University Hospital Frankfurt.

Background: Phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP), a glycoprotein widely expressed in the body, is primarily involved in plasma lipoprotein metabolism. Previous research has demonstrated that PLTP can exert anti-inflammatory effects and improve individual survival in patients with sepsis and endotoxemia by neutralizing LPS and facilitating LPS clearance. However, the role of PLTP in sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI) and the specific mechanism of its protective effects are unclear.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to explore the feasibility of using the TianJi Robot system for navigated needle positioning in the PCNL procedure in vitro.

Methods: A pig kidney with a segment of ureter was selected as the in vitro organ model. Iodine contrast agent was infused into the renal pelvis to dilate the renal pelvis and calyx to establish the in vitro hydronephrosis model.
