Abstract
Nowadays, kidney dysfunction is a common health issue due to the modernized lifestyle. Even though medications are commercially available to treat kidney diseases, early diagnosis is crucial and challenging. Clinically, measuring urine creatinine and pH has gained significant interest as a way to diagnose kidney diseases early. In the present work, we attempted to develop a low-cost, robust, accurate and naked-eye colorimetric method to determine both creatinine levels and pH variations in artificial urine samples using a simple 3D-printed hybrid microfluidic device. Creatinine was detected by the incorporation of the traditional Jaffe test onto the hybrid paper-PMMA microfluidic device and pH (4-8) was measured by a simple anthocyanin test. Notably, the tests were established without employing any sophisticated or costly instrument clusters. The developed 3D-printed microfluidic probe showed a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.04 mM for creatinine over a concentration range of 1-10 mM, with a regression coefficient (R2) of 0.995 in laboratory conditions. Interestingly, the experimental data obtained with artificial urine exhibited a wide linear range from 0.1 mM to 5 mM under different pH values ranging from 4 to 8 in the presence of matrices commonly found in urine samples other than proteins, indicating the potential use of this method in pre-clinical analysis. Since the wide linear range of urine creatinine in artificial urine samples falls well below the clinically relevant concentrations in humans (0.07-0.27 mM), the developed lab-on-chip device is further suitable for clinical evaluation with proper ethical clearance. This 3D-printed hybrid microfluidic colorimetry-based creatinine detection and pH indicator platform can be beneficial in the healthcare sector due to the on-site testing capability, cost-effectiveness, ease of use, robustness, and instrument-free approach.

[PMID: 38486159 PMCID: PMC10938657 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-024-03536-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2023] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Toxic renal effects of myoglobin following rhabdomyolysis can cause acute kidney injury (AKI) with the necessity of kidney replacement therapy (KRT). Fast elimination of myoglobin seems notable to save kidney function and intensify kidney repair. Clinical data regarding efficacy of KRT in critical care patients with rhabdomyolysis and AKI are limited. This retrospective analysis aimed to identify differences between conservative therapy and different modalities of KRT regarding myoglobin elimination and clinical outcome. METHODS This systematic, retrospective, single-center study analyzed 328 critical care patients with rhabdomyolysis (myoglobin > 1000 µg/l). Median reduction rate of myoglobin after starting KRT was calculated and compared for different modalities. Multivariate logistic regression models were established to identify potential confounder on hospital mortality. Filter lifetime of the various extracorporeal circuits was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier curves. RESULTS From 328 included patients 171 required KRT. Health condition at admission of this group was more critical compared to patient with conservative therapy. Myoglobin reduction rate did not differ between the groups (KRT 49% [30.8%; 72.2%] vs. conservative treatment (CT) 61% [38.5%; 73.5%]; p = 0.082). Comparison between various extracorporeal procedures concerning mortality showed no significant differences. Hospital mortality was 55.6% among patients with KRT and 18.5% with CT (p < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression model identified requirement for KRT (OR: 2.163; CI: 1.061-4.407); p = 0.034) and the SOFA Score (OR: 1.111; CI: 1.004-1.228; p = 0.041) as independent predictive factors for hospital mortality. When comparing specific KRT using multivariate regression, no benefit was demonstrated for any treatment modality. Life span of the extracorporeal circuit was shorter with CVVH compared to that of others (log-Rank p = 0.017). CONCLUSIONS This study emphasizes that AKI requiring KRT following rhabdomyolysis is accompanied by high mortality rate. Differences in myoglobin reduction rate between various KRTs could not be confirmed, but CVVH was associated with reduced filter lifetime compared to other KRTs, which enable myoglobin elimination, too.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a global health challenge with increased morbidity and mortality rates yearly. Herbal medicine has provided an alternative approach to treating T2D with limited access to formal healthcare. Tectona grandis is being used traditionally in the treatment of diabetes. The present study investigated the antidiabetic potential of T. grandis leaves in different solvent extractions, and the crude extract that demonstrated the best activity was further fractionated through solvent-solvent partitioning. The ethyl acetate fraction of the ethanol crude extract showed the best antidiabetic activity in inhibiting α-glucosidase, delaying glucose absorption at the small intestine's lumen, and enhancing the muscle's postprandial glucose uptake. The ethyl acetate fraction was further elucidated for its ability to reduce hyperglycemia in diabetic rats. The ethyl acetate fraction significantly reduced high blood glucose levels in diabetic rats with concomitant modulation in stimulated insulin secretions through improved pancreatic β-cell function, insulin sensitivity by increasing liver glycogen content, and reduced elevated levels of liver glucose-6-phosphatase activity. These activities could be attributed to the phytochemical constituents of the plant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CIAKI) is a frequent complication, especially in diabetics, and is connected with severe mortality and morbidity in the short and long term. Therefore, we aimed to develop a CIAKI predictive model for diabetic patients. METHODS 3514 patients with diabetes from four hospitals were separated into three cohorts: training, internal validation, and external validation. We developed six machine learning (ML) algorithms models: random forest (RF), gradient-boosted decision trees (GBDT), logistic regression (LR), least absolute shrinkage and selection operator with LR, extreme gradient boosting trees (XGBT), and support vector machine (SVM). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of ML models was compared to the prior score model, and developed a brief CIAKI prediction model for diabetes (BCPMD). We also validated BCPMD model on the prospective cohort of 172 patients from one of the hospitals. To explain the prediction model, the shapley additive explanations (SHAP) approach was used. RESULTS In the six ML models, XGBT performed best in the cohort of internal (AUC: 0.816 (95% CI 0.777-0.853)) and external validation (AUC: 0.816 (95% CI 0.770-0.861)), and we determined the top 15 important predictors in XGBT model as BCPMD model variables. The features of BCPMD included acute coronary syndromes (ACS), urine protein level, diuretics, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (%), hemoglobin (g/L), congestive heart failure (CHF), stable Angina, uric acid (umol/L), preoperative diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (mmHg), contrast volumes (mL), albumin (g/L), baseline creatinine (umol/L), vessels of coronary artery disease, glucose (mmol/L) and diabetes history (yrs). Then, we validated BCPMD in the cohort of internal validation (AUC: 0.819 (95% CI 0.783-0.855)), the cohort of external validation (AUC: 0.805 (95% CI 0.755-0.850)) and the cohort of prospective validation (AUC: 0.801 (95% CI 0.688-0.887)). SHAP was constructed to provide personalized interpretation for each patient. Our model also has been developed into an online web risk calculator. MissForest was used to handle the missing values of the calculator. CONCLUSION We developed a novel risk calculator for CIAKI in diabetes based on the ML model, which can help clinicians achieve real-time prediction and explainable clinical decisions.

Abstract
Novel enhancement-mode organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) have been prepared by poly(3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) de-doped polyethylenimine on the multi-walled carbon nanotube-modified viscose yarn. The fabricated devices exhibit low power consumption with a high transconductance of 6.7 mS, rapid response time < 2 s, and excellent cyclic stability. In addition, the device has washing durability and bending and long-term stability suitable for wearable applications. Biosensors based on enhancement-mode OECTs for the selective detection of adrenaline and uric acid (UA) are developed by using molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP)-functionalized gate electrodes. The detection limits of adrenaline and UA analysis are as low as 1 pM, with the linear ranges of 0.5 pM to 10 μM and 1 pM to 1 mM, respectively. Moreover, the sensor based on enhancement-mode transistors can efficiently amplify the current signals according to the modulation of the gate voltage. The MIP-modified biosensor has high selectivity in the presence of interferents and desirable reproducibility. Additionally, due to the wearable nature of the developed biosensor, this sensing tool has the capability of being integrated with fabrics. Therefore, it has successfully been applied in textiles for the determination of adrenaline and UA in artificial urine samples. The excellent recoveries and rsds are 90.22-109.05% and 3.97-6.94%, respectively. Ultimately, these sensitive, low-power, wearable, and dual-analyte sensors help to develop non-laboratory tools for early disease diagnosis and clinical research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Excessive deposition of uric acid (UA) is one of the risk factors for kidney damage. Qinling liquid (QL) has a certain therapeutic effect on uric acid nephropathy (UAN), but its regulation mechanism is still unclear. METHODS UAN rat models and UA induced rat renal tubular epithelial cells (NRK-52E) were constructed to evaluate the functional roles of QL. We firstly evaluated the kidney function and the degree of kidney damage in rats after QL treatment. Then, effects of QL on autophagy and NLRP3 inflammasome activation were assessed. Moreover, the regulation of QL in AMPK and Stat3 phosphorylation levels and the relationship among autophagy, AMPK/Stat3 pathway and NLRP3 inflammasomes were determined. RESULTS QL could alleviate the inflammatory damage in UAN rats and promote the activation of autophagy. In addition, QL suppressed UA-induced activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes in rat renal tubular epithelial cells, which was partially reversed by autophagy inhibitor. Further, AMPK/Stat3 axis-mediated autophagy participated in the regulation of UA-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation in NRK-52E cells. Finally, we confirmed that inhibiting AMPK/Stat3 pathway partly deteriorated the ameliorating effect of QL on renal immune inflammatory injury in UAN rats. CONCLUSION Through in vivo and in vitro experiments, we found that QL promotes autophagy by activating the AMPK/Stat3 pathway, thereby improving renal immune inflammatory injury in UAN.

Abstract
High-throughput metabolic analysis based on laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry exhibits broad prospects in the field of large-scale precise medicine, for which the assisted ionization ability of the matrix becomes a determining step. In this work, the gold-decorated hierarchical metal oxide heterojunctions (dubbed Au/HMOHs) are proposed as a matrix for extracting urine metabolic fingerprints (UMFs) of primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS). The hierarchical heterojunctions are simply derived from metal-organic framework (MOF)-on-MOF hybrids, and the native built-in electric field from heterojunctions plus the extra Au decoration provides remarkable ionization efficiency, attaining high-quality UMFs. These UMFs are employed to realize precise diagnosis, subtype classification, and effective prognosis evaluation of PNS by appropriate machine learning, all with 100% accurate ratios. Moreover, a high-confidence marker panel for PNS diagnosis is constructed. Interestingly, all panel metabolite markers present obviously uniform downregulation in PNS compared to healthy controls, shedding light on mechanism exploration and pathway analysis. This work drives the application of metabolomics toward precision medicine.

Abstract
Abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) is defined as any organ dysfunction caused by intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH), referred as intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) ≥ 12 mm Hg according to the World Society of Abdominal Compartment Syndrome. Abdominal compartment syndrome develops in most cases when IAP rises above 20 mmHg. Abdominal compartment syndrome, while being a treatable and even preventable condition if detected early in the stage of intra-abdominal hypertension, is associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality if diagnosis is delayed: therefore, early detection is essential. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common comorbidity, affecting approximately one in every five hospitalized patients, with a higher incidence in surgical patients. AKI in response to intra-abdominal hypertension develops as a result of a decline in cardiac output and compression of the renal vasculature and renal parenchyma. In spite of the high incidence of intra-abdominal hypertension, especially in surgical patients, its potential role in the pathophysiology of AKI has been investigated in very few clinical studies and is commonly overlooked in clinical practice despite being potentially treatable and reversible. Aim of the present review is to illustrate the current evidence on the pathophysiology, diagnosis and therapy of intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome in the context of AKI.

Abstract
The increasing number of examinations and interventional radiological procedures that require the administration of contrast medium (CM) in patients at risk for advanced age and/or comorbidities highlights the problem of CM-induced renal toxicity. A multidisciplinary group consisting of specialists of different disciplines—radiologists, nephrologists and oncologists, members of the respective Italian Scientific Societies—agreed to draw up this position paper, to assist clinicians increasingly facing the challenges posed by CM-related renal dysfunction in their daily clinical practice. The major risk factor for acute renal failure following CM administration (post-CM AKI) is the preexistence of renal failure, particularly when associated with diabetes, heart failure or cancer. In accordance with the recent guidelines ESUR, the present document reaffirms the importance of renal risk assessment through the evaluation of the renal function (eGFR) measured on serum creatinine and defines the renal risk cutoff when the eGFR is < 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 for procedures with intravenous (i.v.) or intra-arterial (i.a.) administration of CM with renal contact at the second passage (i.e., after CM dilution with the passage into the pulmonary circulation). The cutoff of renal risk is considered an eGFR < 45 ml/min/1.73 m2 in patients undergoing i.a. administration with first-pass renal contact (CM injected directly into the renal arteries or in the arterial district upstream of the renal circulation) or in particularly unstable patients such as those admitted to the ICU. Intravenous hydration using either saline or Na bicarbonate solution before and after CM administration represents the most effective preventive measure in patients at risk of post-CM AKI. In the case of urgency, the infusion of 1.4% sodium bicarbonate pre- and post-CM may be more appropriate than the administration of saline. In cancer patients undergoing computed tomography, pre- and post-CM hydration should be performed when the eGFR is < 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 and it is also advisable to maintain a 5 to 7 days interval with respect to the administration of cisplatin and to wait 14 days before administering zoledronic acid. In patients with more severe renal risk (i.e., with eGFR < 20 ml/min/1.73 m2), particularly if undergoing cardiological interventional procedures, the prevention of post-CM AKI should be implemented through an internal protocol shared between the specialists who treat the patient. In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using gadolinium CM, there is a lower risk of AKI than with iodinated CM, particularly if doses < 0.1 mmol/kg body weight are used and in patients with eGFR > 30 ml/min/1.73 m2. Dialysis after MRI is indicated only in patients already undergoing chronic dialysis treatment to reduce the potential risk of systemic nephrogenic fibrosis.

Abstract
This consensus paper summarizes the expert consensus and recommendations of the working group "Heart and Kidney" of the German Cardiac Society (DGK) and the German Society of Nephrology (DGfN) on contrast medium-induced acute kidney injury. Potentially nephrotoxic contrast agents containing iodine are frequently used in interventional medicine and for computer tomography diagnostics. Acute kidney injury occurs in approximately 8-17% of patients exposed to contrast media. The risk factors and underlying pathophysiology are discussed and recommendations for the prophylaxis and treatment of contrast medium-induced acute nephropathy are presented.

The dirty little secret of urate-lowering therapy: useless to stop chronic kidney disease progression and may increase mortality. Clin Kidney J 2020; 13:936-947. [PMID: 33391737 PMCID: PMC7769546 DOI: 10.1093/ckj/sfaa236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Hyperuricaemia is frequent in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Observational studies have shown an association with adverse outcomes and acquired hyperuricaemia (meaning serum urate levels as low as 1.0 mg/dL) in animal models induces kidney injury. This evidence does not justify the widespread use of urate-lowering drugs for asymptomatic hyperuricaemia in CKD. However, promising results from small, open-label studies led some physicians to prescribe urate-lowering drugs to slow CKD progression. Two recent, large, placebo-controlled trials (CKD-FIX and PERL) showed no benefit from urate lowering with allopurinol on the primary endpoint of CKD progression, confirming prior negative results. Despite these negative findings, it was still argued that the study population could be optimized by enrolling younger non-proteinuric CKD patients with better preserved glomerular filtration rate (GFR). However, in these low-risk patients, GFR may be stable under placebo conditions. Additionally, the increased mortality trends already identified in gout trials of urate-lowering therapy were also observed in CKD-FIX and PERL, sending a strong safety signal: 21/449 (4.7%) and 10/444 (2.2%) patients died in the combined allopurinol and placebo groups, respectively [chi-squared P-value 0.048; relative risk 2.07 (95% CI 0.98–4.34); P = 0.06]. Given the absent evidence of benefit in multiple clinical trials and the potentially serious safety issues, the clear message should be that urate-lowering therapy should not be prescribed for the indication of slowing CKD progression. Additionally, regulatory agencies should urgently reassess the safety of chronic prescription of urate-lowering drugs for any indication.

Kidney injury as post-interventional complication of TAVI. Clin Res Cardiol 2020; 110:313-322.

Abstract
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is an accepted treatment approach of aortic stenosis. In the beginning, this technique was executed in high-risk patients only. Today, intermediate-risk patients are also amenable for TAVI, as long as the transfemoral approach is chosen. Numerous predictors have been identified that could lead to periprocedural complications and are defined by patient co-morbidities as well as being inherent to the technical approach. Although vascular complications and postinterventional paravalvular regurgitation have been minimized over the past years by revised technologies and techniques, there is a prevailing individual risk brought about by the specific pathophysiology of the cardiorenal syndrome.
