BACKGROUND: Although the MEST-C classification is among the best prognostic tools in immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN), it has a wide interobserver variability between specialized pathologists and others. Therefore we trained and evaluated a tool u...
The long-term split renal function after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) is yet to be elucidated. This study aimed to assess long-term renal function of RAPN, using renal scintigraphy, and to identify clinical factors related to deteriorat...
BACKGROUND: It is unclear whether data-driven machine learning models, which are trained on large epidemiological cohorts, may improve prediction of comorbidities in people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
OBJECTIVE: This work aims to evaluate whether a machine learning approach is appropriate to estimate the glomerular filtration rate in intensive care unit patients based on sparse iohexol pharmacokinetic data and a limited number of predictors.

PURPOSE: To investigate the effect of robot assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP) and open retropubic radical prostatectomy (RRP) on early renal function in this study.
To determine whether -344T/C CYP11B2 promoter polymorphism affects serum aldosterone levels and whether this polymorphism is an indicator of eGFR decline in patients with chronic kidney disease. -344 C/T CYP11B2 gene polymorphism analysis was perform...
AIM: To examine the frequency and risk factors for the development of diastolic dysfunction (DD) of the left ventricle (LV) of the heart in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
