CKD is a well-known risk factor for ischemic heart disease, not only for the high prevalence of concomitant cardiovascular risk factors, but also for the pathologic effect of uremia on the cardiovascular system.1,18 Coronary artery lesions in CKD are recognized for their heightened complexity, cha...
To better understand the role of the urea-to-creatinine ratio in chronic kidney disease patients, we assessed the epidemiology of the urea-to-creatinine ratio among hospitalised chronic kidney disease patients, and the association between the urea-to-creatinine ratio and inpatient clinical outcomes. ...
It is in general difficult to predict which patient with stable ischemic heart disease will receive interventional or surgical revascularization in the long term, after initially being treated with optimal medical therapy (OMT). In the occluded artery trial (OAT), late opening of infarct-related art...
Cerebral small vessel disease can be identified using magnetic resonance imaging, and includes white matter hyperintensities, lacunar infarcts, cerebral microbleeds, and brain atrophy. Cerebral small vessel disease and chronic kidney disease share many risk factors, including hypertension. This study aims ...
Most features of CKD-MBD are usually present by the time eGFR falls below 45 (stage 3b), though bone disease can begin as soon as stage 2 (eGFR 60 to 89). CKD-MBD occurs in nearly every patient with stage 5 CKD (eGFR <15). The onset of blood vessel calcification can also begin ...
Nomogram of the predictive model (Model 1)“No outflow of the target vessel”, “MAC grade”, and “occluded pedal arch”, according to the order of their significance, were important predictors. MAC = medial artery calcification; IM = inframalleolar; SAD = small artery disease; PARC = ...
We aimed to evaluate whether white and gray matter microstructure changes observed with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) can be used to reflect the progression of chronic brain trauma. The MRI-DTI parameters, neuropat
Cutaneous small-vessel vasculitis (CSVV) typically presents as symmetrical palpable lesions on the lower extremities. Treatment options for CSVV depend on the severity and chronicity of the disease, presence of systemic involvement and identification of causal factors. Conservative management is ...
