Microglial cells are indispensable for the normal development and functioning of neurons in the central nervous system, where they play a crucial role in maintaining brain homeostasis by surveilling the microenvironment for signs of injury or stress ...

BACKGROUND: Therapeutic drug monitoring of immunosuppressive drugs is imperative for organ transplant recipients. High-performance LC-MS/MS is considered gold standard; however, immunoassays provide rapid turnaround time. New technology was developed...
INTRODUCTION: Our study compares 2 immunosuppressive strategies to reduce tacrolimus nephrotoxicity and its risk of acute tubular necrosis: delayed introduction of tacrolimus plus thymoglobulin vs initial tacrolimus plus basiliximab on the results of...
Close monitoring of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is important for early recognition of worsening renal function to prevent further deterioration. Safe conversion from twice-daily tacrolimus (TD-Tac) to once-daily tacrolimus (OD-Tac) ha...
The objective of the current study was to explore the role of ABCB1 and CYP3A5 genetic polymorphisms in predicting the bioavailability of tacrolimus and the risk for post-transplant diabetes. Artificial neural network (ANN) and logistic regression (L...
The aim of this work is to estimate the area-under the blood concentration curve of tacrolimus (TAC) following b.i.d. or q.d. dosing in organ transplant patients, using Xgboost machine learning (ML) models. A total of 4,997 and 1,452 TAC interdose ar...
We previously demonstrated that Machine learning (ML) algorithms can accurately estimate drug area under the curve (AUC) of tacrolimus or mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) based on limited information, as well as or even better than maximum a posteriori Ba...
PURPOSE: The present study aims to explore the effects of tacrolimus on proteinuria in patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) and recommend an appropriate dosage schedule via machine learning method.
Titrating tacrolimus concentration in liver transplantation recipients remains a challenge in the early post-transplant period. This multicenter retrospective cohort study aimed to develop and validate a machine-learning algorithm to predict tacrolim...
