Two markers found together in urine vesicles offered clues to transplanted-kidney inflammation. Neither marker alone clearly distinguished patient groups. doi.org/hcq4qf
Reading single vesicles reveals clues to the origin of chronic inflammation
A new technique to diagnose chronic inflammation developed at Nagoya University can read information from the surface and within individual extracellular vesicles in blood and urine.

Arginine Vasopressin Resistance (formerly Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus) is a rare kidney disorder where the kidneys ignore the hormone that conserves water, causing extreme thirst.

You may be rare, but you're not alone!
#rareDisease #rareDiseaseAwareness
Info card for Arginine Vasopressin Resistance, formerly called Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus, a rare kidney disorder in which the kidneys cannot respond to the water-conserving hormone vasopressin. The card notes that about 90% of inherited cases are caused by AVPR2 gene mutations on the X chromosome and that it can also be caused by lithium. Key symptoms include excessive urination, extreme thirst, and dehydration. Footer reads: "You may be rare, but you're not alone! rarectadvocate.com"

tomato based bean stews and soups and stuff isn't even bad i just always see that same cyan-ass tin that british people use and like that's actively nasty. salt and pepper alone on just regular canned beans is better. see: kidney beans on rye toast.

My kidney-shaped heart, once heavy with regret,
Now beats with hope, and a will to live, and never forget.

The sun shines bright, a beacon in the night,
A guiding light that leads me through life's darkest plight.
And as I walk this winding path, I know I'm not alone,

Serum creatinine alone may miss aminoglycoside kidney injury in urosepsis,
A letter in Annals of Intensive Care argues that a retrospective urosepsis study relied on serum creatinine alone and may have missed early aminoglycoside-induced kidney injury.

Alternating two targeted drugs delayed advanced clear cell kidney cancer progression for a median 24.8 months in a 51-patient trial, versus 9.2 months reported for pazopanib alone. doi.org/hcqmt4
Combining targeted therapies significantly boosted survival in kidney cancer study
Results of a phase 1/2 trial led by Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center show that combining the targeted therapies bevacizumab (Avastin) and pazopanib (Votrient) significantly extends both progression-free and overall survival in patients with the most common type of kidney cancer.

Respirators filter out PM 2.5, which is concentrated & condensed in traffic, including driving alone in cars. This is another reason to wear them.

www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
"The pathophysiological and molecular mechanisms of atmospheric PM2.5 affecting cardiovascular health: A review"
Flowchart shows negative health effects in the body of PM 2.5, particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5 µm, when inhaled. Detailed description follows. For this description, the words, "to and then" signify arrows from one category to the next on the flowchart. PM2.5 to Lung to Circulation then a Direct action label on the chart branches to Other target organs: Liver, Lymph nodes, Spleen, Kidney, Brain, Others. Then an Indirect action label from the other target organs category branches to Cardiovascular system, which is also labeled an indirect action from lungs. Cardiovascular system is then linked to the category of Molecular Mechanisms: Metabolic Activation, Oxidative Stress, Genotoxicity, Inflammation, Dysregulation of Ca2+ signaling, Disturbing autophagic flux, Apoptosis, others ... then the Molecular Mechanisms category links to category of Pathophysiological Mechanisms: Imbalance of cardiac ANS, Increasing blood pressure, Metabolic disorder, Atherosclerosis and plaque vulnerability, Platelet aggregation and thrombosis, others ... then this category links to the final negative health outcome label of Cardiovascular events and death.

Today's #TGTransformation caption is "Sari-Not-Sari"!

#TGTF #GenderBender #GenderBend #GenderSwap #M2FTransformation

rachelshaven.com/forum/index....
A curvy Desi woman in a blue sari stands in a hotel bedroom, eyes closed, smiling. In the caption, Wendy finds that she likes the way the dress flatters her body type, though she's been wary of wearing one. It was the body type that was relatively new - she'd entered the hospital for a kidney transplant as John, only to find herself transforming into a woman who looked South Asian as she recovered, and she wasn't alone - everyone who had received a transplant from this donor changed! The doctors said it must be some extremely rare disease or genetic condition, giving no credence to the materials for a beauty spell that could perhaps linger past death found in her home. Whatever the reason, Wendy would take the darker skin if it got her these curves, considering health issues had kept her from transitioning before, though she felt sorry for most of the cis male recipients (thought the conservative MP who railed against trans folks and immigrants deserved the uterus that came with his new corneas) and tried to be respectful without appropriating anything. It got trickier when sparks flew with her doctor Gita and they wound up in more Desi spaces, but most of her friends understood when they said Wendy was one of Those Girls. Even Gita's parents were surprisingly cool when they announced their engagement; they'd long accepted Gita was bi and would be happy with anyone who made her as happy as Wendy did, and were looking forward to hosting a big, traditional wedding. Which meant Wendy had to get used to wearing a sari. Well, maybe - while Gita's mother wanted all the women dressed that way, her father thought Wendy should be in a western bridal gown!

So my mom has been at the ER since early this morning cause she has a kidney stone(she’s fine she’s getting a stent put in tonight) and my dad was with her until he picked me up from work. Which means he didn’t go home and our dogs were alone all day. Luckily I put them in our family room before-

• Myth: PD is rare in ADPKD
1 in 4 start PD

• Myth: large kidneys rule out PD
Kidney vol alone does not predict PD complications

• Truth: hernias/leaks more common
Find/repair at catheter placement; start w smaller fills

• Myth: outcomes on PD are worse
Mortality better than HD; higher txp rate

PANEL 3: GRAMP, still grabbing his side, his bulging eyes starting to close, his cheeks going green. ARTHUR next to him furrows his brow. GRAMP: NOW IS NOT THE TIME.
