Abstract

To investigate the preventive effect of probucol combined with hydration on contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) in patients with coronary heart disease undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). A total of 641 patients undergoing PCI were randomly assigned to either a probucol group (probucol 500 mg twice daily and hydration; n = 321) or a control group (hydration only; n = 320). The primary endpoint was the incidence of CIN, defined as an increase in serum creatinine (Scr) by ≥ 44.2 μmol/L or ≥ 25% within 72 h after the administration of contrast agent. Secondary endpoints were changes in Scr, cystatin-C (Cys-C), creatinine clearance rate (Ccr), C-reactive protein (CRP), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione (GSH) within 72 h, and major adverse events during hospitalization or the 14-day follow-up period. The incidence of CIN was 4.0% (13/321) in the probucol group and 10.9% (35/320) in the control group. The probucol group had lower Cys-C and higher Ccr at 48 and 72 h after PCI compared with the control group. At 48 and 72 h following the operation, Cys-C and CRP were lower in the probucol group compared with the control group, but Ccr, SOD, and GSH were higher. There were no differences in the incidence of maj...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.
