Mashup Score: 3Social Isolation, Loneliness, and Risk of Microvascular Complications Among Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus - 3 month(s) ago
Social disconnection has been associated with poor cardiometabolic health. This study sought to investigate the associations of social isolation and loneliness with diabetic microvascular complications (DMC) among individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and compare these associations to those related to traditional risk factors.

Mashup Score: 40Clinical Significance of the Cystic Phenotype in Alport Syndrome - 3 month(s) ago
Alport Syndrome (AS) is the most common genetic glomerular disease caused by mutations that affect Type IV collagen. However, the clinical characteristics and significance of AS with kidney cysts are not well defined. This study investigated the prevalence and clinical significance of cystic kidney phenotype in AS.

Mashup Score: 14Infections Following Kidney Transplantation After Exposure to Immunosuppression for Treatment of Glomerulonephritis - 4 month(s) ago
Many kidney transplant patients have glomerular disease as the cause of kidney failure. These patients may be exposed to immunosuppression before transplantation which could increase the risk for infections following receipt of a transplanted kidney. We identified kidney transplant recipients at a university teaching hospital who received immunosuppression pre-transplant for the treatment of glomerular kidney disease. We examined their risk for infection after transplantation by comparing it to the risk among transplant patients who were not exposed to immunosuppression prior to transplant. We observed no increased risk for infection following exposure to prior immunosuppression. Therefore, patients exposed to significant amounts of immunosuppression before transplantation may not require special surveillance or medication adjustment for fear of infection following their receipt of a kidney transplant.

Individuals with a low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) are at a high risk of death. Yet, the causes underpinning this association are largely uncertain. This study aimed to assess the causal relationship of low eGFR with all-cause and cause-specific mortality.
