Open-heart surgery is associated with high morbidity, with acute kidney injury (AKI) being one of the most commonly observed postoperative complications. Following open-heart surgery, in an observational study we found significantly higher numbers of blood neutrophils in a group of 13 patients with AKI compared to 25 patients without AKI (AKI: 12.9±5.

Objective: Spot urine sodium and associated estimating equations provide a suitable alternative assessment of 24-hour sodium excretion in many large-scale studies, but not in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients with decreased renal function. Herein, we aimed to develop a novel predictive equation.

Design And Methods: We retrospectively enrolled all CKD patients at Stage 1-4 who received spot and 24-hour urinary analysis in our single center from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2017.

Purpose: To investigate the potential of Intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted imaging(IVIM-DWI) for the assessment of renal fibrosis in chronic kidney disease (CKD), using histopathology as a reference standard.

Methods: Eighty-five CKD patients and twenty healthy volunteers were recruited in this study. IVIM-DWI was performed in all of the participants, and all of the CKD patients underwent renal biopsy.
