Iron management in chronic kidney disease: conclusions from a “Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes” (KDIGO) Controversies Conference

TL;DR: An expert group was convened to assess the benefits and risks of parenteral iron, and to provide strategies for its optimal use while mitigating the risk for acute reactions and other adverse effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variant esp gene as a marker of a distinct genetic lineage of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium spreading in hospitals

TL;DR: A specific E. faecium subpopulation genetically distinct from non-epidemic VREF isolates was found to be the cause of the hospital epidemics in all three continents and the Esp protein could be a new target for antibacterial therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Response of erythropoiesis and iron metabolism to recombinant human erythropoietin in intensive care unit patients.

TL;DR: Endogenous EPO concentrations are low in critically ill patients, but the bone marrow of these patients is able to respond to exogenous epoetin alfa, as shown by elevated concentrations of reticulocytes and serum transferrin receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI
