Aquaporins (AQPs) are water channel proteins that facilitate the transport of water molecules across cell membranes. To date, seven AQPs have been found to be expressed in mammal kidneys. The cellular localization and regulation of the transport properties of AQPs in the kidney have been widely investigated. Autophagy is known as a highly conserved lysosomal pathway, which degrades cytoplasmic components....
- Acute kidney disease: an overview of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and management

Acute kidney injury (AKI) increases the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and AKI and CKD are seen as interconnected syndromes. Acute kidney disease (AKD) is defined as subacute damage and/or loss of kidney function occurring 7 to 90 days after AKI, during which period key interventions may be initiated to hinder the development of CKD. While AKD is usually...

- Comparison of cardiovascular event predictability between the 2009 and 2021 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equations in a Korean chronic kidney disease cohort: the KoreaN Cohort Study for Outcome in Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease

Background: The 2009 Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration creatinine-based estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcr) equation contains a race component that is not based on biology and may cause a bias in results. Therefore, the 2021 eGFRcr and creatinine-cystatin C–based eGFR (eGFRcr-cysC) equations were developed with no consideration of race. This study compared the cardiovascular event (CVE) and all-cause mortality and...
- Comparison of the medium cutoff dialyzer and postdilution hemodiafiltration on the removal of small and middle molecule uremic toxins
- Chang Seong Kim, Soo Yeon Joo, Hong Sang Choi, Eun Hui Bae, Seong Kwon Ma, Soo Wan Kim

Background: The medium cutoff (MCO) dialyzer increases the removal of several middle molecules more effectively than high-flux hemodialysis (HD). However, comparative data addressing the efficacy and safety of MCO dialyzers vs. postdilution hemodiafiltration (HDF) in Korean patients are lacking. Methods: Nine patients with chronic HD were included in this pre-post study. Patients underwent HD with an MCO dialyzer for 4...
- Safety and durable patency of tunneled hemodialysis catheter inserted without fluoroscopy

-
Background: A tunneled hemodialysis (HD) catheter is preferred due to its lower incidence of infection and malfunction than non-tunneled ones. For safer insertion, fluoroscopic guidance is desirable. However, if the patient is unstable, transfer to the fluoroscopy may be impossible or inappropriate. Methods: From June 2019 to September 2022, 81 tunneled HD catheter insertion cases performed under ultrasound guidance without...
- Effect of donor–recipient size mismatch on long-term graft survival in pediatric kidney transplantation: a multicenter cohort study

-
Background: Donor–recipient size mismatching is commonly occurs in pediatric kidney transplantation (KT). However, its effect on graft survival remains unknown. This study aimed to determine the effect of donor–recipient size mismatch on the long-term survival rate of transplant kidneys in pediatric KT. Methods: A total of 241 pediatric patients who received KT were enrolled. The medical records of all patients...

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the roles of interleukin (IL)-17A in risk stratification and prognosis of patients with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SAKI). Methods: We enrolled 146 sepsis patients (84 non-SAKI and 62 SAKI patients) admitted to the emergency department from November 2020 to November 2021. Patients with SAKI were differentiated based on the severity of...

Background: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) should be educated about their condition so that they can initiate dialysis at the optimal time and make an informed choice between dialysis modalities. Shared decision-making (SDM) empowers patients to select their own treatment and improves patient outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate whether SDM affects the choice of renal replacement therapy among...
