Journal ArticleDOI
A randomized double-blind, multicenter plasma concentration controlled study of the safety and efficacy of oral mycophenolate mofetil for the prevention of acute rejection after kidney transplantation.
T. van Gelder,L.B. Hilbrands,Yves Vanrenterghem,W. Weimar,J.W. de Fijter,Jean-Paul Squifflet,R. J. Hene,Gert A. Verpooten,M T Navarro,M. D. Hale,Andrew J. Nicholls +10 more
TL;DR: MPA C predose and MPA AUC are significantly related to the incidence of biopsy-proven rejection after kidney transplantation, whereas MMF dose is significantly relatedto the occurrence of adverse events.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pharmacokinetic‐pharmacodynamic relationship for mycophenolate mofetil in renal transplantation
M. D. Hale,Andrew J. Nicholls,Roy Bullingham,Ronald Hené,Andries J. Hoitsma,Jean-Paul Squifflet,Willem Weimar,Yves Vanrenterghem,Fokko J. Van de Woude,Gert A. Verpooten +9 more
TL;DR: Mycophenolate mofetil, a pro‐drug for mycophenolic acid, reduces the likelihood of allograft rejection after renal transplantation and is studied in a randomized concentration‐controlled trial.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification and kinetics of leukocytes after severe ischaemia/reperfusion renal injury
Dirk Ysebaert,Kathleen E. De Greef,Sven R. Vercauteren,M. Ghielli,Gert A. Verpooten,E. Eyskens,Marc E. De Broe +6 more
TL;DR: After severe warm I/R renal injury, a pronounced acute tubular necrosis occurs during the first 12-24 h in the absence of a marked cellular infiltrate, but with an important renal MPO activity, reflecting the activation of the adhering inflammatory cells (polymorphonuclear cells (PMNs) and mainly monocytes/macrophages).
Journal ArticleDOI
Adherence to bisphosphonates therapy and hip fracture risk in osteoporotic women.
Véronique Rabenda,Raf Mertens,Valérie Fabri,Johan Vanoverloop,F. Sumkay,Carine Vannecke,André Deswaef,Gert A. Verpooten,Jean-Yves Reginster +8 more
TL;DR: The strong relationship existing between adherence to anti-osteoporosis treatment and the risk of subsequent hip fracture is related to the results confirm that adherence to current therapeutic regimens remains suboptimal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Once‐daily dosing decreases renal accumulation of gentamicin and netilmicin
Gert A. Verpooten,Gert A. Verpooten,Rubén A. Giuliano,Rubén A. Giuliano,Ludo Verbist,Ludo Verbist,Gerard Eestermans,Gerard Eestermans,Marc E. De Broe,Marc E. De Broe +9 more
TL;DR: For each aminoglycoside, a single short‐term infusion resulted in significantly lower renal drug levels than did a continuous infusion of the same dose, which supports the administration of gentamicin and netilmicin as once‐daily injections.
