A 63-year-old man with stage 3a chronic kidney disease (CKD) and mild hyperkalemia was scheduled for a robot-assisted prostatectomy. He was being treated with lisinopril. Owing to mild hyperkalemia (6.2 mmol/L), lisinopril was discontinued, and sodiu...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major worldwide health problem, affecting a large proportion of the world's population and leading to higher morbidity and death rates. The early stages of CKD sometimes present without visible symptoms, causing pati...

Hyperuricemia is a risk factor for the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). We compared febuxostat versus allopurinol in the progression of CKD and hyperuricemia in 101 patients with Stage 3-4 CKD treated with febuxostat or allopurinol for at...
BACKGROUND: Non-invasive renal fibrosis assessment is critical for tailoring personalized decision-making and managing follow-up in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We aimed to exploit machine learning algorithms using clinical and elastos...
BACKGROUND: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major public health problem worldwide. Periodic surveys are essential for monitoring the prevalence of CKD and its risk factors. We assessed the prevalence of CKD and its risk factors in Mianzhu City in 2...
INTRODUCTION: Diabetic nephropathy (DN), distinguished by detrimental changes in the renal glomeruli, is regarded as the leading cause of death from end-stage renal disease among diabetics. Cellular senescence plays a paramount role, profoundly affec...
