Background: Haemodialysis is the primary kidney replacement therapy modality in Africa. In Ethiopia, the number of patients undergoing Haemodialysis is increasing, yet data on their outcomes is scarce. This study assesses the clinical characteristics and outcomes of Haemodialysis patients at Jimma Medical Center.

Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted from April 08 to 12, 2024, involving patients who underwent Haemodialysis at Jimma Medical Center from June 2017 to March 2024. The data were coded and entered into EpiData version 3.1, then exported to the Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 26.0 for analysis. Descriptive statistics summarized the patients' clinical characteristics and outcomes, and Kaplan-Meier curves were used to assess survival status.

Results: During the seven-year study period, 68 patients underwent Haemodialysis at Jimma Medical Center, with a predominance of males (69.1%). The average age of patients was 42.7 (± 12.8) years with 69.1% (95% CI: 57.5-79.1%) diagnosed with chronic kidney disease, while 30.9% (95% CI: 20.9-42.5%) had acute kidney injury. Among chronic kidney disease patients, common clinical features included nausea and vomiting (100%), proteinuria (95.7%), and body swelling (82.9%), while acute kidney injury patients frequently presented with oliguria (100%), nausea and vomiting (90.5%), and hematuria (52.4%). Hypertensive nephropathy was the leading cause of chronic kidney disease (40.4%), and acute glomerulonephritis (38.1%) and severe malaria (33.3%) were the predominant causes of acute kidney injury. Mortality was observed at 47.6% (95% CI: 27.7-68.6%) in acute kidney injury patients and 40.4% (95% CI: 27.3-54.7%) in chronic kidney disease patients. Emergency vascular access was required in 95.7% of chronic kidney disease and 100% of acute kidney injury patients.

Conclusion: This study highlights the substantial burden of chronic kidney disease and acute kidney injury among hemodialysis patients at Jimma Medical Center, revealing distinct clinical profiles and outcomes. Although acute kidney injury patients exhibited a longer median survival time, the significant mortality risk within the first year underscores the urgent need for improved treatment access and resource allocation. Enhancing early intervention and ensuring the availability of critical medications, such as erythropoietin, are essential for optimizing patient outcomes for both chronic kidney disease and acute kidney injury groups.

背景:血液透析是非洲的主要肾脏替代疗法。在埃塞俄比亚,接受血液透析的患者人数不断增加,但有关其治疗效果的数据却很少。本研究评估了吉马医疗中心血液透析患者的临床特征和治疗效果:这项回顾性横断面研究于 2024 年 4 月 8 日至 12 日进行,涉及 2017 年 6 月至 2024 年 3 月期间在吉马医疗中心接受血液透析的患者。数据经编码后输入 EpiData 3.1 版,然后导出到社会科学统计软件包 26.0 版进行分析。描述性统计总结了患者的临床特征和结局,并使用卡普兰-梅耶曲线评估生存状况:在为期七年的研究期间,共有 68 名患者在吉马医疗中心接受了血液透析治疗,其中男性占多数(69.1%)。患者平均年龄为 42.7(± 12.8)岁,69.1%(95% CI:57.5-79.1%)的患者被诊断为慢性肾病,30.9%(95% CI:20.9-42.5%)的患者患有急性肾损伤。在慢性肾病患者中,常见的临床特征包括恶心呕吐(100%)、蛋白尿(95.7%)和身体浮肿(82.9%),而急性肾损伤患者则经常出现少尿(100%)、恶心呕吐(90.5%)和血尿(52.4%)。高血压肾病是慢性肾病的主要病因(40.4%),急性肾小球肾炎(38.1%)和严重疟疾(33.3%)是急性肾损伤的主要病因。急性肾损伤患者的死亡率为 47.6%(95% CI:27.7-68.6%),慢性肾病患者的死亡率为 40.4%(95% CI:27.3-54.7%)。95.7%的慢性肾病患者和100%的急性肾损伤患者需要紧急血管通路:这项研究凸显了吉马医疗中心血液透析患者中慢性肾病和急性肾损伤患者的巨大负担,揭示了不同的临床特征和结果。虽然急性肾损伤患者的中位生存时间较长,但第一年内的死亡风险很大,这突出表明迫切需要改善治疗途径和资源分配。加强早期干预并确保红细胞生成素等关键药物的供应,对于优化慢性肾病和急性肾损伤两组患者的治疗效果至关重要:不适用。

Background: Choosing to have dialysis or conservative kidney management is often challenging for older people with advanced kidney disease. While we know that clinical communication has a major impact on patients' treatment decision-making, little is known about how this occurs in practice. The OSCAR study (Optimising Staff-Patient Communication in Advanced Renal disease) aimed to identify how clinicians present kidney failure treatment options in consultations with older patients and the implications of this for patient engagement.

Methods: An observational, multi-method study design was adopted. Outpatient consultations at four UK renal units were video-recorded, and patients completed a post-consultation measure of shared decision-making (SDM-Q-9). Units were sampled according to variable rates of conservative management. Eligible patients were ≥ 65 years old with an eGFR of ≤ 20 mls/min/1.73m2 within the last 6 months. Video-recordings were screened to identify instances where clinicians presented both dialysis and conservative management. These instances were transcribed in fine-grained detail and recurrent practices identified using conversation-analytic methods, an empirical, observational approach to studying language and social interaction.

Results: 110 outpatient consultations were recorded (105 video, 5 audio only), involving 38 clinicians (doctors and nurses) and 94 patients: mean age 77 (65-97); 61 males/33 females; mean eGFR 15 (range 4-23). There were 21 instances where clinicians presented both dialysis and conservative management. Two main practices were identified: (1) Conservative management and dialysis both presented as the main treatment options; (2) Conservative management presented as a subordinate option to dialysis. The first practice was less commonly used (6 vs. 15 cases), but associated with more opportunities in the conversation for patients to ask questions and share their perspective, through which they tended to evaluate conservative management as an option that was potentially personally relevant. This practice was also associated with significantly higher post-consultation ratings of shared decision-making among patients (SDM-Q-9 median total score 24 vs. 37, p = 0.041).

Conclusions: Presenting conservative management and dialysis as on an equal footing enables patient to take a more active role in decision-making. Findings should inform clinical communication skills training and education.

Clinical trial number: No trial number as this is not a clinical trial.

背景:对于患有晚期肾脏病的老年人来说,选择透析还是保守的肾脏治疗往往具有挑战性。虽然我们知道临床沟通对患者的治疗决策有重大影响,但对于在实践中如何进行临床沟通却知之甚少。OSCAR研究(优化晚期肾病患者与医护人员的沟通)旨在确定临床医生在与老年患者会诊时如何介绍肾衰竭治疗方案,以及这对患者参与的影响:方法:采用观察性多方法研究设计。对英国四家肾科医院的门诊咨询进行了视频录像,患者在咨询后完成了共同决策测量(SDM-Q-9)。根据保守治疗的不同比例对各单位进行抽样。符合条件的患者年龄≥ 65 岁,最近 6 个月内 eGFR ≤ 20 毫升/分钟/1.73 平方米。对视频录像进行筛选,以确定临床医生同时介绍透析和保守治疗的情况。采用会话分析方法(一种研究语言和社会互动的经验性观察方法)对这些实例进行了详细转录,并确定了重复出现的做法:共记录了 110 次门诊咨询(105 次视频,5 次音频),涉及 38 名临床医生(医生和护士)和 94 名患者:平均年龄 77 岁(65-97 岁);61 名男性/33 名女性;平均 eGFR 15(范围 4-23)。临床医生同时介绍透析和保守治疗的情况有 21 例。确定了两种主要做法:(1) 保守治疗和透析均作为主要治疗方案;(2) 保守治疗作为透析的从属方案。第一种做法的使用率较低(6 例与 15 例),但患者有更多机会在谈话中提出问题并分享自己的观点,从而倾向于将保守治疗作为一种可能与个人相关的选择。这种做法还与患者在会诊后对共同决策的评分明显提高有关(SDM-Q-9 中位总分 24 分 vs. 37 分,p = 0.041):结论:将保守治疗和透析同等对待可使患者在决策中发挥更积极的作用。临床试验编号:没有试验编号,因为这不是临床试验。

Background: Renal dysfunction (RD) is more prevalent among people living with HIV (PLHIV) in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) due to factors such as co-infections, hypertension, diabetes, and nephrotoxic antiretroviral drugs like tenofovir. Early detection of RD is critical but limited by resource constraints in many SSA countries, including Tanzania. Point-of-care (POC) tests, such as the Stat-Sensor Creatinine test by Nova Biomedical, present a cost-effective and non-invasive option for early detection. This study will evaluate the diagnostic performance of the Stat-Sensor creatinine test in detecting renal dysfunction in HIV care and treatment clinics (CTCs) in Tanzania. It will be conducted for a period of six months, from November 2024 to April 2025.

Methodology: The study will measure point-of-care creatinine using a rapid creatinine dipstick against the standard serum creatinine test. The diagnostic performance and agreement to diagnose renal dysfunction will be assessed using a standardized statistical approach: Bland-Altman analysis and linear mixed-effects models to test agreement between creatinine dipstick tests with serum creatinine. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) statistics will be used to test the diagnostic performance of the creatinine dipstick test to diagnose renal dysfunction.

Discussion: We hypothesize that POC creatinine testing will show strong diagnostic performance, providing a reliable, rapid, and cost-efficient alternative for RD detection, leading to better patient outcomes and integration of POC tests into routine HIV care.

Ethical clearance: The study protocol was reviewed and approved by the Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences Research and Publication committee in June 2024 with reference number, MUHAS-REC-05-2024-2275.

背景:由于合并感染、高血压、糖尿病和肾毒性抗逆转录病毒药物(如替诺福韦)等因素,肾功能障碍(RD)在撒哈拉以南非洲(SSA)的艾滋病病毒感染者(PLHIV)中更为普遍。早期检测 RD 至关重要,但在包括坦桑尼亚在内的许多撒哈拉以南非洲国家,RD 的早期检测受到资源限制。Nova Biomedical 公司的 Stat-Sensor 肌酸酐检测仪等床旁检测 (POC) 是一种成本效益高且无创的早期检测方法。这项研究将评估 Stat-Sensor 肌酐检测仪在坦桑尼亚艾滋病护理和治疗诊所 (CTC) 检测肾功能障碍方面的诊断性能。研究将从 2024 年 11 月至 2025 年 4 月进行,为期 6 个月:该研究将使用快速肌酐试纸与标准血清肌酐检测法进行床旁肌酐测量。将采用标准化统计方法评估诊断性能和诊断肾功能异常的一致性:采用 Bland-Altman 分析和线性混合效应模型来检验肌酐量计测试与血清肌酐测试之间的一致性。接受者操作特征(ROC)统计将用于测试肌酐量尺测试诊断肾功能不全的诊断性能:我们假设,POC 肌酐检测将显示出强大的诊断性能,为 RD 检测提供可靠、快速和经济高效的替代方法,从而改善患者的治疗效果,并将 POC 检测纳入常规 HIV 护理中:该研究方案于2024年6月通过了穆亨比里卫生与联合科学大学研究与出版委员会的审查和批准,编号为MUHAS-REC-05-2024-2275。

Background: The 24-h urine protein (24-hUP) excretion is the gold standard for evaluating proteinuria. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of protein/creatinine ratio (PCR) for estimating 24-hUP at various levels of renal function and proteinuria levels.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between December 2021 and December 2023 in Salvador, Bahia-Brazil, as an extension of previously published data from the TUNARI study. The study included 217 samples from 152 patients with various levels of renal function and proteinuria. PCR in isolated samples and 24-hUP were determined conventionally within a 24-h timeframe. Patients were classified into three groups according to the level of renal function (Group 1 = 10 to < 30 mL/min, Group 2 = 30-60 mL/min, and Group 3 = > 60 mL/min) and level of proteinuria (< 0.3 g/day, 0.3-3.5 g/day, and > 3.5 g/day). The data were analyzed using the Spearman correlation (rs), coefficient of determination (r2), Bland-Altman plots and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Likelihood ratios, positive (LR +), and negative (LR-) were derived from the sensitivity and specificity of PCR.

Results: Mean age was 41.5 ± 15.7 years, 61.8% were women, 36.8% Black and 52% Mixed-race. Glomerulopathies constituted 80.3%; 46.1% with lupus nephritis. Of the total urine samples, we observed a high correlation between PCR in the total sample of 24-hUP sample (rs = 0.86, p < 0.001) across different levels of renal function. However, agreement between PCR and 24-hUP was reduced at higher levels of proteinuria. The ROC analysis showed an AUC of 0.95 (95% CI = 0.92, 0.98), sensitivity of 91% and specificity of 86.5% (LR + 6.7; LR- 0.1), with an optimal cut-off of 0.77. These results were similar across renal function levels. Proteinuria ≤ 0.3 g/day showed a high sensitivity of 83.3% and specificity of 90%, with an area under (AUC) of 0.85 (95% CI = 0.71; 0.94). In the 24-hUP range > 0.3-3.5 g/day, the sensitivity was 64.1%, the specificity was 84.6%, and the AUC was 0.76 (95% CI = 0.67; 0.84), PCR detected all cases > 3.5 g/day.

Conclusions: PCR is a suitable measure to be used as an indicator of 24-hUP at different levels of renal function, but may have limitations at higher levels of proteinuria. Analysis of PCR by proteinuria level found that agreement as well as sensitivity decreases at higher levels, but it maintains good specificity and is able to identify nephrotic range proteinuria.

背景:24小时尿蛋白(24-hUP)排泄量是评估蛋白尿的黄金标准。本研究旨在评估蛋白质/肌酐比值(PCR)在不同肾功能水平和蛋白尿水平下估算 24-hUP 的诊断效果:方法:2021 年 12 月至 2023 年 12 月期间,在巴西巴伊亚州萨尔瓦多市进行了一项横断面研究,该研究是对之前公布的 TUNARI 研究数据的扩展。研究包括来自 152 名患者的 217 份样本,这些患者的肾功能和蛋白尿水平各不相同。分离样本中的 PCR 和 24-hUP 均在 24 小时内按常规方法测定。根据肾功能水平(第 1 组 = 10 至 60 毫升/分钟)和蛋白尿水平(3.5 克/天)将患者分为三组。数据采用斯皮尔曼相关性(rs)、判定系数(r2)、布兰德-阿尔特曼图和接收者操作特征曲线(ROC)进行分析。根据 PCR 的灵敏度和特异性得出阳性(LR +)和阴性(LR-)的似然比:平均年龄为 41.5 ± 15.7 岁,61.8% 为女性,36.8% 为黑人,52% 为混血儿。肾小球疾病占 80.3%;狼疮性肾炎占 46.1%。在所有尿样中,我们观察到 PCR 与 24 小时尿样的总样本之间存在高度相关性(rs = 0.86,p 0.3-3.5克/天,灵敏度为 64.1%,特异性为 84.6%,AUC 为 0.76 (95% CI = 0.67; 0.84),PCR 检测出所有大于 3.5 克/天的病例:结论:在不同的肾功能水平下,PCR是一种适合用作24 hUP指标的测量方法,但在蛋白尿水平较高时可能会有局限性。根据蛋白尿水平对 PCR 进行分析后发现,蛋白尿水平越高,一致性和灵敏度就越低,但其特异性仍然很好,能够识别肾病范围内的蛋白尿。

Of the total urine samples, we observed a high correlation between PCR in the total sample of 24-hUP sample (r<sub>s</sub> = 0.86, p < 0.001) across different levels of renal function. However, agreement between PCR and 24-hUP was reduced at higher levels of proteinuria. The ROC analysis showed an AUC of 0.95 (95% CI = 0.92, 0.98), sensitivity of 91% and specificity of 86.5% (LR + 6.7; LR- 0.1), with an optimal cut-off of 0.77. These results were similar across renal function levels. Proteinuria ≤ 0.3 g/day showed a high sensitivity of 83.3% and specificity of 90%, with an area under (AUC) of 0.85 (95% CI = 0.71; 0.94). In the 24-hUP range > 0.3-3.5 g/day, the sensitivity was 64.1%, the specificity was 84.6%, and the AUC was 0.76 (95% CI = 0.67; 0.84), PCR detected all cases > 3.5 g/day.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>PCR is a suitable measure to be used as an indicator of 24-hUP at different levels of renal function, but may have limitations at higher levels of proteinuria. Analysis of PCR by proteinuria level found that agreement as well as sensitivity decreases at higher levels, but it maintains good specificity and is able to identify nephrotic range proteinuria.</p>","PeriodicalId":9089,"journal":{"name":"BMC Nephrology","volume":"25 1","pages":"418"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11583421/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142685938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Objective: We sought to explore the linear or nonlinear relationship between preoperative iron metabolism and acute kidney injury following cardiac surgery (CSA-AKI) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

Methods: Patients who underwent cardiac surgery with CPB between December 2018 and April 2021 were retrospectively collected from Fuwai Hospital and Medical Information Mart for Intensive Cared dataset (MIMIC-IV). The measurements of iron metabolism included serum iron (SI), serum ferritin (SF), transferrin (TRF), transferrin saturation (TS), and total iron binding capacity (TIBC). Logistic regression and restricted cubic spline (RCS) were used for linear and nonlinear analysis. The primary outcome was postoperative AKI with 48 h after cardiac surgery.

Results: Of 10,639 patients screened (2420 in Fuwai Hospital and 8219 in MIMIC-IV dataset),1488 eligible patients were enrolled for the final analysis (Fuwai Hospital: n = 744, MIMIC-IV: n = 744).The incidence of AKI was 25.7% and 56.5%, respectively. Logistic regression showed that the levels of TRF (odds ratio (OR) = 1.53,95%CI:1.01-2.14, p = 0.012) and TIBC (OR = 1.05,95%CI:1.02-1.07, p < 0.001) were independent risk factor for AKI. Moreover, in the spline models adjusted with age (median:56), female, and history of diabetes, a significant statistical difference was observed between SI, SF, TRF, TS, TIBC (p for nonlinear < 0.05) and AKI in the Fuwai Hospital dataset. Additionally, the levels of SI (p for nonlinear 0.0364),SF (p for nonlinear 0.0461) were also in non-linear relationship with AKI in the MIMIC-IV dataset.

Conclusion: Iron metabolism markers (SI, SF, TS, TRF, and TIBC) displayed a nonlinear relationship with AKI by the RCS model (adjusted by age, gender, and history of diabetes). Notably, the MIMIC-IV dataset, which includes elderly patients, also demonstrated a nonlinear relationship between SI, SF and AKI. These findings highlight the potential therapeutic value of targeting proteins related to iron metabolism in patients with AKI.

Clinical trial number: Not applicable.

目的我们试图探讨术前铁代谢与心肺旁路(CPB)心脏手术后急性肾损伤(CSA-AKI)之间的线性或非线性关系:从阜外医院和重症监护医疗信息中心数据集(MIMIC-IV)中回顾性收集2018年12月至2021年4月期间接受CPB心脏手术的患者。铁代谢测量包括血清铁(SI)、血清铁蛋白(SF)、转铁蛋白(TRF)、转铁蛋白饱和度(TS)和总铁结合能力(TIBC)。线性和非线性分析采用逻辑回归和受限立方样条曲线(RCS)。主要结果是心脏手术后 48 小时内的术后 AKI:在筛选出的 10639 名患者中(阜外医院 2420 名,MIMIC-IV 数据集 8219 名),有 1488 名符合条件的患者被纳入最终分析(阜外医院:n = 744,MIMIC-IV:n = 744)。逻辑回归显示,TRF(几率比(OR)= 1.53,95%CI:1.01-2.14,P = 0.012)和 TIBC(OR = 1.05,95%CI:1.02-1.07,P = 0.012)的水平与铁代谢指标(OR = 1.05,95%CI:1.02-1.07,P = 0.012)的水平呈正相关:铁代谢指标(SI、SF、TS、TRF 和 TIBC)与 AKI 呈非线性关系。值得注意的是,包括老年患者在内的 MIMIC-IV 数据集也显示出 SI、SF 和 AKI 之间的非线性关系。这些发现凸显了靶向与 AKI 患者铁代谢相关的蛋白质的潜在治疗价值:临床试验编号:不适用。

Background: Iron deficiency is a major contributor to anaemia in chronic kidney diseases. The association of anaemia and iron deficiency with health-related quality of life in Japanese patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease has not been examined. In this study, we evaluated anaemia and iron deficiency in patients with chronic kidney disease G3b-5 and examined their associations with health-related quality of life.

Methods: This nationwide cohort study included 2,249 patients with advanced chronic kidney disease receiving nephrologist care from 31 representative facilities throughout Japan; they were randomly selected through stratification by region and facility size and aligned with the Chronic Kidney Disease Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study. Using baseline patient data, we assessed the association of anaemia and iron deficiency with health-related quality of life, employing the 36-item Kidney Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire.

Results: The mean mental and physical component summary scores for all patients were 49 and 47, respectively. Patients with haemoglobin levels < 10 g/dL had worse three kidney disease subscale, mental component summary, physical component summary, and subdomain scores than those with haemoglobin levels > 12 g/dL. Patients with absolute iron deficiency (TSAT < 20% and ferritin < 100 ng/mL) had worse three kidney disease subscale and mental component summary scores than those with functional iron deficiency (TSAT < 20% and ferritin ≥ 100 ng/mL).

Conclusions: Japanese patients with chronic kidney disease G3b-5 with anaemia or absolute iron deficiency had worse health-related quality of life. Our results provide clinical evidence of renal anaemia in Japan and will be useful for international comparisons.

背景:缺铁是慢性肾脏病患者贫血的主要原因。日本非透析慢性肾脏病患者贫血和缺铁与健康相关生活质量的关系尚未得到研究。在这项研究中,我们评估了慢性肾脏病 G3b-5 患者的贫血和缺铁情况,并研究了它们与健康相关生活质量的关系:这项全国范围内的队列研究纳入了 2,249 名接受肾科医生治疗的晚期慢性肾脏病患者,这些患者来自日本全国 31 家具有代表性的医疗机构;他们是根据地区和医疗机构规模分层随机抽取的,并与慢性肾脏病结果和实践模式研究保持一致。利用患者的基线数据,我们采用 36 项肾脏病生活质量问卷评估了贫血和缺铁与健康相关生活质量的关系:结果:所有患者的心理和生理部分的平均总分分别为 49 分和 47 分。血红蛋白水平为 12 g/dL.绝对缺铁的患者(TSAT结论):贫血或绝对缺铁的日本慢性肾病 G3b-5 患者的健康相关生活质量较差。我们的研究结果提供了日本肾性贫血的临床证据,有助于进行国际比较。

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors and morbidity in the elderly population. This study aimed to examine the association between CKD and CVD risk factors in the elderly population of Fasa and Yazd (Shahdieh), Iran, using the data from the enrolment phase of Fasa and Shahedieh cohort studies.

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analytical study using data from Fasa and Shahedieh cohort studies, which enrolled 1487 and 1507 participants aged over 60 years, respectively. We collected data on demographic and clinical variables, kidney problems, and CVD from the two studies. We estimated the glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) using the modification of diet in renal disease (MDRD) formula and considered values less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 as CKD. We used independent t-tests, Spearman's correlation coefficient, chi-square, one-way analysis of variance, and logistic regression to analyze the data. We performed the analyses using SPSS V. 22.0 software and set the significance level at 0.05.

Results: The overall prevalence of CKD was 41.9%; 25.7% in women and 16.2% in men. The prevalence of CKD based on reported kidney problems was 1.7%, of which 54.7% were in stage 3 of CKD. Compared to participants in the early stages of CKD, participants in advanced stages had a higher prevalence of diabetes (p < 0.001), hypertension (p < 0.001), ischemic heart disease (IHD) (p < 0.001), and myocardial infarction (p < 0.001). In addition, participants in higher stages of CKD were more obese, had lower physical activity, smoked more, and consumed more opium (p < 0.001).

Conclusion: Our study showed that more than half of the patients were in stage three CKD, which is an advanced stage of this disease. Diabetes Melitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, IHD, and myocardial infarction were more prevalent in patients than others. These findings demonstrate the importance of screening for CKD in patients with diabetes mellitus and hypertension. The results also suggest that lifestyle modification and prevention strategies are needed to reduce the burden of CKD and CVD in this population.

背景:慢性肾脏病(CKD)与老年人群心血管疾病(CVD)风险因素和发病率的增加有关。本研究旨在利用伊朗法萨和亚兹德(沙赫迪耶)队列研究入学阶段的数据,研究法萨和沙赫迪耶老年人群中慢性肾脏病与心血管疾病风险因素之间的关联:我们利用法萨和沙赫迪耶队列研究的数据进行了一项横断面分析研究,这两项研究分别招募了 1487 名和 1507 名 60 岁以上的参与者。我们从这两项研究中收集了有关人口统计学和临床变量、肾脏问题和心血管疾病的数据。我们使用肾脏病饮食改良(MDRD)公式估算了肾小球滤过率(eGFR),并将低于 60 毫升/分钟/1.73 平方米的值视为慢性肾脏病。我们采用独立 t 检验、斯皮尔曼相关系数、卡方检验、单因素方差分析和逻辑回归分析数据。我们使用 SPSS V. 22.0 软件进行分析,显著性水平设定为 0.05:慢性肾脏病的总患病率为 41.9%,其中女性为 25.7%,男性为 16.2%。根据报告的肾脏问题,慢性肾功能衰竭的患病率为 1.7%,其中 54.7% 处于慢性肾功能衰竭的第三阶段。与处于慢性肾脏病早期阶段的参与者相比,处于晚期阶段的参与者的糖尿病患病率更高(p 结论:我们的研究表明,半数以上的慢性肾脏病患者患有糖尿病:我们的研究表明,半数以上的患者处于慢性肾功能衰竭三期,也就是这种疾病的晚期。糖尿病、高血压、血脂异常、高血压和心肌梗死在患者中的发病率高于其他患者。这些发现表明,对糖尿病和高血压患者进行慢性肾脏病筛查非常重要。研究结果还表明,需要改变生活方式和采取预防策略,以减轻这一人群的慢性肾脏病和心血管疾病负担。

Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a prevalent microvascular complication of diabetes mellitus and a primary cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Increasing studies suggest that immune cells are involved in regulating renal inflammation, which contributes to the progression of DKD. Compared with conventional methods, single-cell sequencing technology is more developed technique that has advantages in resolving cellular heterogeneity, parallel multi-omics studies, and discovering new cell types. ScRNA-seq helps researchers to analyze specifically gene expressions, signaling pathways, intercellular communication as well as their regulations in various immune cells of kidney biopsy and urine samples. It is still challenging to investigate the function of each cell type in the pathophysiology of kidney due to its complex and heterogeneous structure and function. Here, we discuss the application of single-cell transcriptomics in the field of DKD and highlight several recent studies that explore the important role of immune cells including macrophage, T cells, B cells etc. in DKD through scRNA-seq analyses. Through combing the researches of scRNA-seq on immune cells in DKD, this review provides novel perspectives on the pathogenesis and immune therapeutic strategy for DKD.

糖尿病肾病(DKD)是糖尿病的一种常见微血管并发症,也是终末期肾病(ESRD)的主要病因。越来越多的研究表明,免疫细胞参与了肾脏炎症的调控,而肾脏炎症是导致糖尿病肾病恶化的原因之一。与传统方法相比,单细胞测序技术是一种更先进的技术,在解析细胞异质性、并行多组学研究和发现新细胞类型方面具有优势。ScRNA-seq 可帮助研究人员对肾脏活检样本和尿液样本中各种免疫细胞的基因表达、信号通路、细胞间通讯及其调控进行特异性分析。由于肾脏的结构和功能复杂多样,研究每种细胞类型在肾脏病理生理学中的功能仍具有挑战性。在此,我们探讨了单细胞转录组学在 DKD 领域的应用,并重点介绍了近期几项通过 scRNA-seq 分析探讨巨噬细胞、T 细胞、B 细胞等免疫细胞在 DKD 中重要作用的研究。通过梳理scRNA-seq对DKD中免疫细胞的研究,这篇综述为DKD的发病机制和免疫治疗策略提供了新的视角。

Through combing the researches of scRNA-seq on immune cells in DKD, this review provides novel perspectives on the pathogenesis and immune therapeutic strategy for DKD.</p>","PeriodicalId":9089,"journal":{"name":"BMC Nephrology","volume":"25 1","pages":"412"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11568691/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142643557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Background: Robot-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) is increasingly being adopted worldwide. Despite this growing interest, there remains a notable gap in the literature, especially concerning its effectiveness in immunologically high-risk patients compared to conventional open kidney transplantation (OKT). This study investigates the viability and success of RAKT in comparison with OKT, particularly for recipients with ABO incompatibility (ABOi).

Methods: This retrospective, single-center study included 239 living-donor transplants between October 2020 and February 2023, with 210 patients undergoing ABOi-OKT and 29 undergoing ABOi-RAKT. A composite of biopsy-proven acute rejection (BPAR), graft failure, and the development of de novo donor-specific antibodies was analyzed through univariate and multivariate models. Propensity score matching (PSM) was utilized to ensure a balanced comparison between the two groups. Following PSM, a total of 131 cases in the OKT group and 26 cases in the RAKT group were analyzed.

Results: After PSM, the mean recipient age was 48.56 years for OKT and 47.96 years for RAKT. Both groups had comparable one-year (RAKT: 92.4%, OKT: 93.1%) and two-year BPAR-free survival rates (RAKT: 92.4%, OKT: 91.9%). Mean estimated glomerular filtration rate values were similar at 12 months post-transplant (RAKT: 62.15 ml/min/1.73 m², OKT: 64.53 ml/min/1.73 m²). Operative times were significantly longer for RAKT (291.42 vs. 150.81 min, p < 0.001), while cold ischemic time was also longer for RAKT (119.77 vs. 47.22 min, p < 0.001). Hospital stays were shorter for RAKT (median 6 vs. 8 days, p < 0.001). There was no significant difference in the composite outcome of BPAR, graft failure, and de novo donor-specific antibodies between the two groups (HR 0.858, 95% CI: 0.180-4.096, p = 0.848).

Conclusions: RAKT is a safe and effective alternative to OKT in ABOi patients, demonstrating similar perioperative outcomes, graft survival rates, and renal function. The application of ropensity score matching analysis strengthens the reliability of these findings, confirming RAKT's viability for high-risk kidney transplant recipients.

Trial registration: The clinical trial associated with this study was registered on 2024-02-24 with the Clinical Trial Number NCT06287008|| https://www.

背景:机器人辅助肾移植(RAKT)在全球范围内被越来越多地采用。尽管人们对机器人辅助肾移植的兴趣与日俱增,但相关文献仍存在明显空白,尤其是与传统开放式肾移植(OKT)相比,机器人辅助肾移植对免疫高风险患者的有效性。本研究探讨了 RAKT 与 OKT 相比的可行性和成功率,尤其是对 ABO 不相容(ABOi)受者的可行性和成功率:这项回顾性单中心研究纳入了2020年10月至2023年2月期间的239例活体供体移植,其中210例患者接受了ABOi-OKT,29例患者接受了ABOi-RAKT。研究通过单变量和多变量模型对活检证实的急性排斥反应(BPAR)、移植失败和新的供体特异性抗体的产生进行了综合分析。为确保两组间的平衡比较,采用了倾向评分匹配法(PSM)。PSM后,共分析了131例OKT组和26例RAKT组病例:PSM 后,OKT 组受者的平均年龄为 48.56 岁,RAKT 组受者的平均年龄为 47.96 岁。两组的一年(RAKT:92.4%,OKT:93.1%)和两年无BPAR生存率相当(RAKT:92.4%,OKT:91.9%)。移植后 12 个月的平均肾小球滤过率估计值相似(RAKT:62.15 ml/min/1.73 m²;OKT:64.53 ml/min/1.73 m²)。RAKT 的手术时间明显更长(291.42 分钟对 150.81 分钟,P 结论:RAKT 是一种安全、有效的肺移植手术:在 ABOi 患者中,RAKT 是 OKT 安全有效的替代方案,其围手术期结果、移植物存活率和肾功能相似。应用密度评分匹配分析加强了这些结果的可靠性,证实了 RAKT 在高风险肾移植受者中的可行性:与本研究相关的临床试验于2024-02-24注册,临床试验编号为NCT06287008||https://www.Clinicaltrials: gov/ )。
