This study used a glucocorticoid-injection model to mimic kidney-yang deficiency syndrome and reported symptoms related to hormonal imbalances in the hypothalamic-pituitary-target gland axes.

This review found that Tolvaptan is the only drug shown to slow the progression of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, but it does not affect mortality or kidney failure outcomes.

This study concluded that while remote interventions using digital health technology can enhance health-related outcomes, medication adherence, and economic status in kidney transplant recipients, their effect on tacrolimus concentration is not clearly understood.

In this study, researchers found that tubular VCAM1 expression in transgenic mice and human kidney transplant biopsies precedes nephron loss and fibrosis, indicating its potential as an early biomarker for tubular fate and adverse kidney outcomes.

This study found that methanol extract of Phoenix dactilifera improved kidney function in rats at doses of 4 and 8 mg/kg, but may impair renal function at 16 mg/kg.

This article discusses the challenges in hypertension management, emphasizing the need to reconsider the use of minoxidil and address excess dietary sodium and arteriolar hypertrophy, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that among men with serum testosterone levels below 3.33 ng/mL, the prevalence of kidney stones was significantly higher, independent of other metabolic factors.

This study observed that women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, particularly those with specific phenotypes, had a significantly higher risk of developing kidney stones compared to healthy controls.

This research examined krill oil's effects on benign prostatic hyperplasia and found that it inhibited the growth of prostate cells in vitro and reduced prostate size and weight in a BPH rat model, suggesting potential as a prophylactic or therapeutic agent for BPH.

In this study, tacrolimus-based treatment was found to result in fewer overall side effects compared to cyclosporine among Yemeni kidney transplant patients, although tacrolimus was associated with a higher incidence of diabetes.

This study observed that methanol extract of Phoenix dactilifera improved kidney function in rats at 4 and 8 mg/kg doses, but a 16 mg/kg dose may impair kidney function by affecting urea and potassium excretion.

Being obese and eating too many calories may increase the risk of kidney cancer, but physical activity doesn't seem to affect this risk.

This review discusses the diverse roles of the TRPS1 gene in regulating cartilage, kidney, and hair follicle development, highlighting its functions and interactions, but provides no new experimental results.

In this study, testosterone increased the expression of epithelial sodium channel proteins and mRNAs in rat kidneys, suggesting a potential mechanism for its effect on blood pressure through enhanced sodium reabsorption.

In this study, testosterone was reported to increase aquaporin levels and water reabsorption in the kidneys of male rats, potentially leading to higher blood pressure, with effects mitigated by flutamide and finasteride.

This study assessed whether the elemental composition of human hair could serve as a marker for kidney stones, cholelithiasis, hypertension, and diabetes, but it reports only variations in element content along hair regions.

Collagen XVIII is crucial for maintaining tissue structure and function in the brain, kidneys, and hair.

In this study, the ethanol extract of Zapoteca portoricensis stem significantly reduced markers of testosterone-induced benign prostate hyperplasia in male albino rats without harming liver and kidney function.

This study investigated the effects of nandrolone decanoate on adult rabbits and reported that administering 10 mg/kg for 15 days caused harmful histological changes in the heart, liver, and kidneys, including inflammation and tissue degeneration.

This study found that the diphosphonate ethan-1-hydroxy-1,1-diphosphonat was the most effective compound in preventing calcifications in rats induced by DHT, compared to other phosphatase inhibitors and polyphosphates tested.

In this study conducted on Iraqi individuals with celiac disease not on a gluten-free diet, researchers observed elevated serum urea and creatinine levels, which may indicate an increased risk of renal dysfunction, alongside decreased magnesium, zinc, and vitamin C compared to healthy controls.

This review details the expression and diverse functions of melatonin receptors in non-neural tissues and reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing their potential as therapeutic targets across various physiological and pathological processes.

In this study, homozygous VDR null mutant mice exhibited nonfunctional vitamin D receptors, leading to growth abnormalities and revealing the limited physiological importance of vitamin D pathways outside the classical receptor.

In this retrospective cohort study, researchers reported that 11.5% of patients with DRESS developed significant long-term autoimmune or renal sequelae, with age influencing the type of sequelae observed.

This article reviews methotrexate's pharmacokinetics and toxicity, emphasizing the role of urinary excretion and leucovorin in avoiding most toxic reactions; it provides no new clinical results.

This review outlines the advancements in organ and tissue transplantation since the discovery of the human MHC and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the range of long-term complications, including mucocutaneous, ocular, and psychological sequelae, for survivors of Stevens–Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the use of very low-calorie ketogenic diets for obesity management and provides recommendations for nutrition experts, but reports no new clinical results.
