The effect of noncreatinine chromogens on the endogenous creatinine clearance (ECC) during pregnancy was investigated. It was found that these chromogens measured as plasma "creatinine" cause a significant reduction in the ECC value. This fact should be considered when the ECC value is used to evaluate renal function during pregnancy.

Background And Aim: In the context of gastrointestinal diseases, the role of monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) is significant. Therefore, the objective of this study was to examine the protective effects of MAGL inhibition using JZL184 in rat models of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and to explore its mechanism.
Methods: In this study, a rat model of SAP was established, and the rats were divided into three groups for treatment: the Control group (CON), the SAP group (SAP), and the SAP group treated with JZL184 (JZL184).

The article is based, among other things, on the updated KDIGO guideline for the evaluation and management of chronic kidney disease, which was published in Kidney International in March 2024. Chronic kidney disease is one of the most common chronic diseases, with a prevalence of around 10%, not least due to demographic ageing. The incidence of chronic kidney disease is approximately twice that of diabetes and approximately 20 times higher than that of cancer.

Background: High levels of catecholamines are cardiotoxic and associated with stress-induced cardiomyopathies. Septic patients are routinely exposed to endogenously released and exogenously administered catecholamines, which may alter cardiac function and perfusion causing ischemia. Early during human septic shock, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) decreases but normalizes in survivors over 7-10 days.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a conceivable new risk factor for cognitive disorder and dementia. Uremic toxicity, oxidative stress, and peripheral-central inflammation have been considered important mediators of CKD-induced nervous disorders. Nitric oxide (NO) is a retrograde neurotransmitter in synapses, and has vital roles in intracellular signaling in neurons.

Kidney tissue injury in renal artery stenosis (RAS) involves inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS), and mitochondria damage. Tumor necrosis factor-stimulated gene-6 (TSG-6), an endogenous reparative molecule, may decrease ERS and improve renal function. To assess its impact on the stenotic murine kidney, we injected TSG-6 or vehicle for two weeks in mice with RAS.
