Background: Pregnancy-associated atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a form of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) caused by uncontrolled activation of the complement system during pregnancy or the postpartum period. In the intensive care unit, aHUS must be differentiated from sepsis-related multiple organ dysfunction, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet (HELLP) syndrome. Early recognition of aHUS is critical for effective treatment and improved prognosis.

Objective: To examine and evaluate guideline concordance of surgical treatment selection at a community-based health system. The AUA guidelines provide specific guidance regarding appropriate utilization of radical nephrectomy (RN) and partial nephrectomy (PN). However, nearly 40% of patients did not fit a guideline-specified scenario in a prior report.

Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) poses a serious challenge in kidney transplant recipients. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-seronegative recipients have a significantly increased risk of PTLD, but few studies have investigated risk factors for PTLD in EBV-seronegative recipients in the current era of immunosuppression. This cohort study from Norway and western Denmark included first-time kidney transplant recipients between 2007-2021, and estimated the cumulative incidence, risk and prognosis of PTLD.

This study aimed to investigate the genetic polymorphisms of KCNN2, a key gene encoding a subtype of small-conductance calcium-activated potassium (SK) channels, which regulate an important SK current pathway potentially involved in the development of CV complications, particularly arrhythmias, in ESRD patients. A total of 169 ESRD patients were enrolled in this study.

Novel radiation sensitizers, including inhibitors targeting DNA damage response, have been developed to enhance the efficacy of anticancer treatments that induce DNA damage in cancer cells. Peposertib, a potent, selective, and orally administered inhibitor of DNA-dependent protein kinase, impedes the nonhomologous end-joining mechanism for DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. We investigated radioimmunotherapy alone or with peposertib in preclinical models of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) or prostate cancer.
