In end-stage kidney disease, kidney functions can be replaced only by dialysis or by kidney transplantation. The planning for dialysis and transplantation is usually started in stage 4 of chronic kidney disease. Most patients are candidates for both hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis (see below). ...
The median creatinine level at the time of the biopsy was 123 µmol/L and the median eGFR level 51 mL/min/1.73m2, with n = 80 (57.6%) of the patients having a kidney function impairment corresponding to CKD stage ≥ 3. Hypertension was seen in n = 97 (69.8%) of ...
The liver biopsy proves the presence of genotype 1b HCV-RNA, and therefore latent HCV infection is diagnosed and a liver lesion is detected (active chronic hepatitis with stage 4 liver fibrosis). The serum from patient No. 18 gives a POSITIVE result when the determination of anti-core HCV ...

Cancer survival in England is lower than the European average, particularly for patients aged 65 years or older and in the first year after diagnosis (Coleman et al, 2011). This discrepancy is attributed in part to late diagnosis, which is generally thought to contribute to advanced stage at ...
(proteinuria) losses in normal individuals are usually <30 mg/24 h, and lower than 150 mg/24 h, respectively. Since diagnosis, all patients had adhered to a renal diet that was low in sodium and/or phosphorus and/or protein, depending on the patients’ condition and CKD stage [4,20,...
RIF is a common pathological manifestation of CKD progressing to end-stage renal disease. Its pathogenesis is mainly related to renal inflammatory injury, oxidative stress, and apoptosis, but the most important pathogenesis is the imbalance of extracellular matrix synthesis and/or degradation, and exces...
