Journal ArticleDOI
Relevance of Toll-like receptor-4 polymorphisms in renal transplantation.
Didier Ducloux,Marina Deschamps,Maria Yannaraki,Christophe Ferrand,Jamal Bamoulid,Philippe Saas,Amir Kazory,Jean-Marc Chalopin,Pierre Tiberghien +8 more
TL;DR: RTR with TLR4 polymorphism present a lower risk of post-transplant atherosclerotic events and acute allograft rejection, but experience severe infectious episodes more frequently.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predicting coronary heart disease in renal transplant recipients: a prospective study.
TL;DR: Nontraditional cardiovascular risk factors greatly contribute to increased incidence of ischemic heart disease events in renal transplant recipients and should be considered in preventive care of these patients which relies on reduction of overall absolute risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emergence of Blood Urea Nitrogen as a Biomarker of Neurohormonal Activation in Heart Failure
TL;DR: The pathophysiologic basis for the emerging role of BUN as a biomarker of neurohormonal activation in the setting of HF is explained and the potential clinical implication of this novel concept is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anemia: the point of convergence or divergence for kidney disease and heart failure?
Amir Kazory,Edward A. Ross +1 more
TL;DR: A pragmatic approach to the care of patients with HF is suggested until such time that controlled trials establish definitive anemia treatment goals that are dynamic and disease specific, rather than those that adopt a more simplistic hemoglobin-specific approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
One-year post-transplant weight gain is a risk factor for graft loss.
TL;DR: It is concluded that post‐transplant weight gain significantly reduces graft survival and MS did not independently predict graft loss, partly due to significant interactions with low‐grade inflammation.
