The meaning of urinary creatinine concentration

TL;DR: The rationale for urine creatinine normalization is clear in chronic conditions, as urinary excretion of any biomarker that is filtered by the glomerulus will be affected by theglomerular filtration rate (GFR) and resultant urinary flow.
Book ChapterDOI

TWEAK and the Kidney: the Dual Role of a Multifunctional Cytokine

TL;DR: The tubular epithelium is a key cell in the renal injury and is the main histological correlation with the degree of renal failure, and contributes to renal failure by secreting pro-inflammatory cytokines and by the epithelia–mesenchymal differentiation originating fibroblasts and promoting tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Undetectable serum calcidiol: not everything that glitters is gold.

TL;DR: A patient with chronic tophaceous gout, chronic kidney disease, and undetectable serum calcidiol who developed severe hypercalcaemia upon vitamin D supplementation despite serum 25(OH) vitamin D within the normal range is reported.

TL;DR: Findings raise new questions regarding the role of BAFF in SLE and the functional and therapeutic significance of anti-BAFF and anti-cytokine autoantibodies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Megalin/lipoprotein receptor-related protein 2 autoimmunity and kidney disease.

TL;DR: The issue of the underdiagnoses of LRP2 nephropathy is raised, on top of the potential association to B-cell malignancy, within the wider frame of autoimmunity against megalin/LRP2 and related antigens such as Fx1A and CD69.
