To test the humoral theory of allograft rejection, we investigated whether all patients who reject a kidney have HLA-antibodies. Sera from 1363 patients at four transplant centers who had rejected a kidney graft and transplant or who had rejected a graft and were waiting for a regraft were ...
Elevated blood and 24-hour urine mercury levels were present, while the kidney biopsy showed no signs of lupus nephritis. The patient exhibited Hg intoxication, which, along with clinical and laboratory signs such as hypocomplementemia, positive ANA, and anti-dsDNA antibody, was successfully ...
A similar spectrum of in-hospital MACCEs, including acute atrial fibrillation, major bleeding, and acute kidney injury, was found in diabetic and non-diabetic patients following CABG procedures.Widespread dormancy is a characteristic of both multicellular and unicellular organisms. Among the diatoms, ...
Older patients experiencing frailty and multiple diseases face difficulty in interpreting HA levels within plasma and urine, as HA's production and excretion are interwoven with diet, gut microorganisms, and liver/kidney performance.
