Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication following endovascular aortic repair (EVAR). An association of AKI with patient survival after fenestrated EVAR (FEVAR) is currently under investigation. METHODS Patients undergoing FEVAR between April 2013 and June 2020 were included in the study. AKI was defined according to acute kidney injury network criteria. Demographic and perioperative data, complications, and survival are reported for the study cohort. The data were analyzed to identify possible predictors of AKI. RESULTS Two hundred and seventeen patients underwent FEVAR during the study period. Survival at last follow-up (20.4 ± 20.1 mo) was 75.1%. Thirty patients experienced AKI (13.8%). Six of 30 patients with AKI (20%) died within 30 days or in-hospital and 1 (3.3%) progressed to hemodialysis. Within 1 y, renal function had recovered in 23 patients (76.7%). In-hospital mortality was higher in patients with AKI (20% versus 4.3%, P = 0.006). A higher rate of AKI was seen in patients in whom an intraoperative technical complication had been documented (38.5% versus 8.4%, P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Patients undergoing FEVAR are at risk of developing AKI, especially if they experience technical intraoperative complications. Most patients see recovery of renal function within the first 30 days to 1 y, but AKI remains associated with significantly increased in-hospital mortality.

Abstract
Periprosthetic femoral fractures (PFF) around total hip replacements are one of the biggest challenges for orthopaedic surgeons. To understand the risk factors and formation of these fractures, the development of a reliable finite element (FE) model incorporating bone failure is essential. Due to the anisotropic and complex hierarchical structure of bone, the mechanical behaviour under large strains is difficult to predict. In this study, a state-of-the-art subject specific FE modelling technique for bone is utilised to generate and investigate PFF. A bilinear constitutive law is applied to bone tissue in subject specific FE models of five human femurs which are virtually implanted with a straight hip stem to numerically analyse PFF. The material parameters of the models are expressed as a function of bone ash density and mapped node wise to the FE mesh. In this way the subject specific, heterogeneous structure of bone is mimicked. For material mapping of the parameters, computed tomography (CT) images of the original fresh-frozen femurs are used. Periprosthetic fractures are generated by deleting elements on the basis of a critical plastic strain failure criterion. The models are analysed under physiological and clinically relevant conditions in two different load cases re-enacting stumbling and a sideways fall on the hip. The results of the analyses are quantified with experimental data from previous work. With regard to fracture pattern, stiffness and failure load the simulations of the load case stumbling delivered the most stable and accurate results. In general, mapping of material properties was found to be an appropriate way to reproduce PFF with finite element models.

Abstract
Objective To characterize the incidence, type, and risk factors of severe infections (SI) in patients with autoimmune kidney diseases treated with rituximab (RTX). Methods We conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study of adult patients with immune-related kidney diseases treated with at least one course of RTX between 2015 and 2019. As a part of the ABCDE Registry, detailed data on RTX application and SI were collected. SI were defined by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v5.0 as infectious complications grade 3 and above. Patients were dichotomized between “nephrotic” and “nephritic” indications. The primary outcome was the incidence of SI within 12 months after the first RTX application. Results A total of 144 patients were included. Twenty-five patients (17.4%) presented with SI, mostly within the first 3 months after RTX administration. Most patients in the nephritic group had ANCA-associated vasculitis, while membranous nephropathy was the leading entity in the nephrotic group. Respiratory infections were the leading SI (n= 10, 40%), followed by urinary tract (n=3, 12%) and gastrointestinal infections (n=2, 8%). On multivariable analysis, body mass index (BMI, 24.6 kg/m2versus 26.9 kg/m2, HR: 0.88; 95%CI: 0.79-0.99; p=0.039) and baseline creatinine (HR: 1.25; 95%CI: 1.04-1.49; p=0.017) were significantly associated with SI. All patients in the nephritic group (n=19; 100%) who experienced a SI received oral glucocorticoid (GC) treatment at the time of infection. Hypogammaglobulinemia was frequent (58.5%) but not associated with SI. Conclusions After RTX administration, impaired kidney function and lower BMI are independent risk factors for SI. Patients with nephritic glomerular diseases having concomitant GC treatment might be at higher risk of developing SI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), insulin is usually replaced systemically (subcutaneously) and not via the physiological portal route. According to previous studies, the liver's capacity to store glycogen is reduced in T1DM patients, but it remains unclear whether this is due to hyperglycaemia, or whether the route of insulin supply could contribute to this phenomenon. T1DM patients after successful pancreas-kidney transplantation with systemic venous drainage (T1DM-PKT) represent a suitable human model to further investigate this question, because they are normoglycaemic, but their liver receives insulin from the pancreas transplant via the systemic route. MATERIALS AND METHODS In nine T1DM-PKT, nine controls without diabetes (CON) and seven patients with T1DM (T1DM), liver glycogen content was measured at fasting and after two standardized meals employing (13) C-nuclear-magnetic-resonance-spectroscopy. Circulating glucose and glucoregulatory hormones were measured repeatedly throughout the study day. RESULTS The mean and fasting concentrations of peripheral plasma glucose, insulin, glucagon and C-peptide were comparable between T1DM-PKT and CON, whereas T1DM were hyperglycaemic and hyperinsulinaemic (P < 0·05 vs T1DM-PKT and CON). Total liver glycogen content at fasting and after breakfast did not differ in the three groups. After lunch, T1DM-PKT and T1DM had a 14% and 21% lower total liver glycogen content than CON (P < 0·02). CONCLUSION In spite of normalized glycaemic control, postprandial liver glycogen content was reduced in T1DM-PKT with systemic venous drainage. Thus, not even optimized systemic insulin substitution is able to resolve the defect in postprandial liver glycogen storage seen in T1DM patients.

Abstract
The Renin-Angiotensin-System is a peptide hormone cascade being responsible for the regulation of blood pressure and fluid balance through a sophisticated signaling network. During recent years the local Renin-Angiotensin-System (RAS) moved increasingly into the focus of research as the expression of multiple angiotensin processing enzymes had been reported for tissues. Nevertheless, scientific progress in this field is hampered due to the obvious presence of technical caveats in the analysis of the local RAS, which are indicated by a tremendous variation of tissue angiotensin levels reported in the literature. Hence, in order to assess the functions of the local RAS in different tissues, a solid and reproducible assay for the measurement of endogenous angiotensin peptide levels in tissues would be essential. We developed a novel mass-spectrometry-based method allowing the quantification of up to 10 angiotensin metabolites in tissue samples simultaneously. This novel tool was tested for applicability in murine studies by measuring tissue and plasma levels of angiotensin metabolites in wildtype and ACE2 knockout mice treated with various RAS-interfering drugs. The study provided deep insights into the systemic and tissue specific RAS revealing drug specific responses. As expected, the knockout of ACE2 resulted in increased Angiotensin II levels in hearts of knockout animals while the kidneys were only moderately affected. Enalapril treatment significantly lowered Angiotensin II levels in all investigated tissues. Surprising tissue specific effects were observed regarding other angiotensin metabolites, which underlines the importance of the comprehensive analysis of the RAS for conclusive interpretation of pharmacologic studies and allows to draw conclusions about expression levels of RAS-enzymes in the tissue of interest. Mass spectrometry based multiplex quantification of tissue angiotensin peptides (Tissue RAS-Fingerprinting) is a potent analytic tool for applications in basic science and drug development. Multiplex analysis of the tissue RAS provides new insights that might lead to the development of novel drugs and therapeutic concepts for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases in the future.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the presence of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) 1-9 in human articular cartilage, and to investigate the effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced activation of TLR-4 on biosynthetic activity and matrix production by human articular chondrocytes. METHODS TLRs 1-9 were assessed in human articular cartilage by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR); TLR-4 was also analyzed by Western blotting and immunohistochemistry. Articular chondrocytes were isolated from human donors and from wild-type or TLR-4(-/-) mice. Chondrocyte monolayer cultures were incubated with interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and LPS in the absence or presence of bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP-7) and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra). Neosynthesis of sulfated glycosaminoglycans (sGAG) was measured by (35)S-sulfate incorporation. Endogenous gene expression of cartilage markers as well as IL-1beta was examined using RT-PCR. The involvement of p38 kinase or p44/42 kinase (ERK-1/2) in LPS-mediated TLR-4 signaling was investigated by immunoblotting, RT-PCR, and sGAG synthesis. RESULTS TLRs 1-9 were found on the messenger RNA (mRNA) level in human articular chondrocytes. The presence of TLR-4 was also observed on the protein level. In murine and human articular chondrocytes, but not in chondrocytes derived from TLR-4(-/-) mice, stimulation with LPS resulted in a decrease in total proteoglycan synthesis. IL-1beta mRNA expression was increased by TLR-4 activation, whereas expression of aggrecan and type II collagen was significantly decreased. The presence of BMP-7 and IL-1Ra antagonized the anti-anabolic effects of LPS. Blocking of p38, but not ERK-1/2, resulted in inhibition of both LPS-mediated IL-1beta gene expression and the negative effects of LPS on matrix biosynthesis. CONCLUSION These data demonstrate the presence of TLRs in human articular cartilage. The suppressive effects of LPS on cartilage biosynthetic activity are dependent on the presence of TLR-4, are governed, at least in part, by an up-regulation of IL-1beta, and are mediated by p38 kinase. These in vitro data indicate an anti-anabolic effect of TLR-4 in articular chondrocytes that may hamper cartilage repair in various joint diseases.

Abstract
The transcription factor nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NF-AT) plays an essential role in the activation of many early immune response genes. A dynamic equilibrium between calcineurin and cellular kinases controls its phosphorylation and thus regulates its activity by determining its subcellular localization. Here, we demonstrate that T-cell activation in the presence of the bacterial metabolite n-butyrate, which leads to inhibition of interleukin-2 transcription, is characterized by the maintenance of the activity of counter-regulatory kinases glycogen synthase kinase 3 and protein kinase A as well as persistence of intracellular cAMP levels, whereas calcium response and mitogen-activated protein kinase activation were indistinguishable from cells stimulated in the absence of n-butyrate. Nuclear binding of NF-AT was decreased but other transcription factors implicated in interleukin-2 expression such as AP1 and nuclear factor kappaB were unaffected. The effect on NF-AT binding appeared to be the result of increased nuclear export because the export inhibitor leptomycin B completely restored nuclear binding of NF-AT. We, therefore, provide first evidence for interference with NF-AT regulation alternative to the currently understood inhibition of nuclear import. This mechanism might represent a bacterial strategy to subvert host defense, which could be of particular clinical importance in the gastrointestinal tract where high amounts of n-butyrate are physiologically present.
