Jeffrey B. Kopp,George W. Nelson,Karmini Sampath,Randall C. Johnson,Randall C. Johnson,Giulio Genovese,Ping An,David J. Friedman,William A. Briggs,Richard A. Dart,Stephen M. Korbet,Michele H. Mokrzycki,Paul L. Kimmel,Sophie Limou,Tejinder S. Ahuja,Jeffrey S. Berns,Justyna Fryc,Eric E. Simon,Michael C. Smith,Howard Trachtman,Donna M. Michel,Jeffrey R. Schelling,David Vlahov,Martin R. Pollak,Cheryl A. Winkler +24 more
TL;DR: African Americans carrying two APOL1 risk alleles have a greatly increased risk for glomerular disease, andAPOL1-associated FSGS occurs earlier and progresses to ESRD more rapidly, adding to the evidence base required to determine whether genetic testing for APol1 has a use in clinical practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
MYH9 is a major-effect risk gene for focal segmental glomerulosclerosis
Jeffrey B. Kopp,Michael W. Smith,George W. Nelson,Randall C. Johnson,Barry I. Freedman,Donald W. Bowden,Taras K. Oleksyk,Louise M. McKenzie,Hiroshi Kajiyama,Tejinder S. Ahuja,Jeffrey S. Berns,William A. Briggs,Monique E. Cho,Richard A. Dart,Paul L. Kimmel,Stephen M. Korbet,Donna M. Michel,Michele H. Mokrzycki,Jeffrey R. Schelling,Eric E. Simon,Howard Trachtman,David Vlahov,Cheryl A. Winkler +22 more
TL;DR: Genetic variation at the MYH9 locus substantially explains the increased burden of FSGS and hypertensive ESKD among African Americans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Samir K. Gupta,Joseph A. Eustace,Jonathan A. Winston,Ivy I. Boydstun,Tejinder S. Ahuja,Rudolph A. Rodriguez,Karen T. Tashima,Michelle E. Roland,Nora Franceschini,Frank J. Palella,Jeffrey L. Lennox,Paul E. Klotman,Sharon Nachman,Stephen D. Hall,Lynda A. Szczech +14 more
TL;DR: This research presents a meta-analysis of the immune system’s response to Epstein-Barr virus, which has the potential to improve the quality of life of patients and reduce the likelihood of adverse events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Changing trends in the survival of dialysis patients with human immunodeficiency virus in the United States.
TL;DR: In this paper, survival of HIV-infected patients in the United States was determined and the influence of year of initiation of dialysis, and demographic characteristics on the survival were analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is concluded that although mortality and morbidity from HIV infection is decreasing, HIVAN remains an important complication of HIV infection in blacks, even in recent years.
