Effect of neuro-linguistic programming on COVID-19 fear in kidney transplant patients: A randomized controlled study
This study was conducted experimentally to evaluate the effect of neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) on fear of COVID-19 in kidney transplant patients. The study was carried out between June 2021 and October 2021. The Personal Information Form and COVID-19 Fear Scale (FCV-19S) were used to collect data. The obtained data obtained were evaluated using the SPSS 25 software. NLP was found to reduce the fear of COVID-19 in kidney transplant patients. Clinical nurses can use NLP techniques to support patients with fear in similar patient groups. Patients can be provided with access to training programs where they can learn NLP ...

Neuro-ophthalmic presentations and treatment of Cryptococcal meningitis-related increased intracranial pressure.
CONCLUSIONS: Ophthalmologists should be aware that cryptococcosis can mimic more benign etiologies including IIH and neuroretinitis. Additionally, C. gattii, an emerging organism, can infect immunocompetent patients. In contrast to the typical treatment of increased ICP, serial lumbar punctures are recommended while acetazolamide and surgical CSF shunting may be harmful. PMID: 25284106 [PubMed - in process]

Fibrinogen: A Circulating Factor in Search for Its Genetic Architecture.
Abstract Fibrinogen (Coagulation factor I) is a major player in thrombus formation; it is cleaved by thrombin to form fibrin, which is the most abundant component of a blood clot(1). Beyond the role played in the coagulation and cardiovascular diseases (CVD), fibrinogen is a proinflammatory factor in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases (such as rheumatoid arthritis, vasculitides, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases and kidney disorders and post-transplant-fibrosis)(2) as well as in several types of cancer(3). Fibrinogen has been demonstrated to interfere with the...

Blood biomarkers of kidney transplant rejection, an endless search?
Authors: Jacquemont L, Soulillou JP, Degauque N Abstract INTRODUCTION: The tailoring of immunosuppressive treatment is recognized as a promising strategy to improve long-term kidney graft outcome. To guide the standard care of transplant recipients, physicians need objective biomarkers that can identify an ongoing pathology with the graft or low intensity signals that will be later evolved to accelerated transplant rejection. The early identification of "high-risk /low-risk" patients enables the adjustment of standard of caring, including managing the frequency of clinical visits and the immunosuppression dosing. G...

In search of preventative strategies: novel high-CBD cannabis sativa extracts modulate ACE2 expression in COVID-19 gateway tissues.
Abstract With the current COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), there is an urgent need for new therapies and prevention strategies that can help curtail disease spread and reduce mortality. The inhibition of viral entry and thus spread is a plausible therapeutic avenue. SARS-CoV-2 uses receptor-mediated entry into a human host via the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), which is expressed in lung tissue as well as the oral and nasal mucosa, kidney, testes and gastrointestinal tract. The modulation of ACE2 levels in these gateway tissues may be an effect...

Neurological Involvement in Primary Systemic Vasculitis
Conclusion Neurological involvement is a common complication of PSV (Table 1), and neurologists play an important role in the identification and diagnosis of PSV patients with otherwise unexplained neurological symptoms as their chief complaint. This article summarizes the neurological manifestations of PSV and hopes to improve neuroscientists' understanding of this broad range of diseases. TABLE 1 Table 1. Common CNS and PNS involvements of primary systemic vasculitis. Author Contributions SZ conceived the article and wrote the manuscript. DY and GT reviewed and edited the manuscript. All authors ...

Recurrent Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis After Kidney Transplantation in African Americans: Review of the Current Evidence
CONCLUSIONS: Search 1 yielded 4 articles, search 2 yielded 44 articles, search 3 yielded 6 articles, and search 4 yielded 8 articles. African Americans were shown to be disproportionately predisposed to endstage kidney disease, traceable to focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (the most common cause of glomerulonephritis leading to end-stage kidney disease). Apolipoprotein L1 presence in 22% of African Americans explained the odds ratio of 17 in developing focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and 8 times lifetime risk of end-stage kidney disease. Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis recurred in 30% of kidney transplant recipient...
