Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology, impact and preventive care of chronic kidney disease in Taiwan.
TL;DR: Provision of a more comprehensive public health strategy and better care plan for CKD should be achieved by future international collaborative efforts and research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of receptor for advanced glycation end-product (RAGE) and the JAK/STAT-signaling pathway in AGE-induced collagen production in NRK-49F cells.
TL;DR: It was concluded that RAGE and the JAK2‐STAT1/STAT3 pathway were involved in AGE‐induced collagen production in NRK‐49F cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of the clinical conditions at dialysis initiation on mortality in incident haemodialysis patients: a national cohort study in Taiwan
TL;DR: Lower eGFR at dialysis initiation is associated with lower mortality, andPropensity score analysis showed a higher eG FR to be associated with increased mortality risks, and further study is needed.
