Abstract

There are no controlled trials on the efficacy of oral bicarbonate therapy in patients with mild to moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD). This prospective randomized controlled study was done to evaluate the effects of correction of metabolic acidosis on renal functions and bone metabolism in this group of patients. Forty patients were randomized to treatment with oral bicarbonate or placebo for a period of 3 months. Investigations at baseline included venous pH, bicarbonate, renal functions, serum iPTH, and bone radiology. The treatment group (Group B) received daily oral sodium bicarbonate therapy at a dose of 1.2 mEq/kg of body weight. Their venous blood pH and bicarbonate levels were estimated weekly to keep blood pH near 7.36 and bicarbonate at 22-26 mEq/L by adjusting the dose of sodium bicarbonate. At the end of 3 months, all the tests were repeated in both groups. After oral bicarbonate therapy (OBT), there was a significant decline in the rise of blood urea level in Group B associated with a sense of well-being in 50% patients. The rise in parathormone (PTH) was six times the baseline value in Group A and only 1.5 times baseline value in Group B, although not statistically significant. There was no significant change ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
