P0623ACUTE RENAL FAILURE IN HAPOLIDENTICAL HEMATOPOIETIC CELL TRANSPLANTATION. TWO GRAFT VS HOST DISEASE (GVHD) PROFILAXIS PROTOCOL COMPARISON

2020

Abstract Background and Aims Haplo-hematopoietic cell transplantation (Haplo-HCT) assures a valid donor in short notice in over 95% of the patients with high risk haematological neoplasia. High doses of post-transplant cyclophosphamide, in combination with other inmunosupressive drugs like calcineurin inhibitors, rapamycine and micophenolate mofetil, is safe and useful in GVHD prevention. The aim of the study was to analyze and compare acute kidney injury (AKI) in the first 100 days after transplantation, the characteristics of the patients who went on haplo-HCT, and prophylaxis for GVHD with cyclosporine (n=32) (group 1) or rapamycine (group 2), in combination with other immunossupresors. …

2020

Abstract Background and Aims Hyperkalemia (HK) is a potentially life-threatening condition, in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and congestive heart failure (CHF). The majority of patients affected with CKD or CHF, must be treated with inhibitors of renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAASi) and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs). However, the treatments previously mentioned, increase the risk of HK episodes, which is the main cause of RAASi and MRAs downtitration or discontinuation, representing an undesirable clinical scenario, given that the patients are at high risk of be deprived of their nephroprotective effect and cardio-renal benefits The aim of the study is: …

MO945SERUM AND URINE LEUCINE RICH ALPHA-2-GLYCOPROTEIN-1 IS ASSOCIATED WITH KIDNEY TRANSPLANT INJURY AND FAILURE

2021

Abstract Background and Aims Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for most of the patients with end stage chronic kidney disease. To improve patient and graft survival, early diagnostics and discovery of specific biomarkers is important. Leucine rich alpha-2-glycoprotein-1 (LRG-1) is an innovative, non-invasive biomarker that is elevated in case of angiogenesis, inflammation and kidney injury. Aim was to evaluate biomarker LRG-1 level in serum and urine in kidney transplant recipients in accordance with kidney injury markers and time period after kidney transplantation. Method In the study 35 patients were enrolled. Patients had functioning kidney grafts and they were more than…

MO319BEDSIDE URINE SEDIMENT EXAMINATION IN IMMUNOGLOBULIN A NEPHROPATHY PATIENTS PERFORMED BY NEPHROLOGISTS

2021

Abstract Background and Aims Urine sediment microscopy is mostly abandoned by nephrologists nowadays, however it is an important diagnostic tool in kidney and urinary tract diseases. The aim of this study is to emphasize the benefits of urine microscopy performed by a nephrologist. Method A prospective cohort study at Pauls Stradins Clinical University Hospital Nephrology center included patients with histologically confirmed diagnosis of IgA nephropathy from 1st January 2020 till December 2020. Appropriately collected urine samples were examined using manual microscopy within an hour after sample collection and by automated urinalysis. Samples were centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 4 minutes, th…

2020

Abstract Background and Aims Patients with diabetic kidney disease show a wide variability in their response to established and new treatments. SGLT2 inhibitors have also shown to slow the progression of kidney disease. Some studies have also shown kidney benefits for Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists (MRA). A large outcome trial with the MRA finerenone is currently ongoing to assess effects of this MRA on major kidney outcomes. The individual trials will solve the issue whether a patient may have benefit from an SGLT2 inhibitor or MRA, but they do not address the key question which of the two or their combination is better to reduce albuminuria for each individual patient. Therefore, …
