Protective effect of tonapofylline (BG9928), an adenosine A1 receptor antagonist, against cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury in rats.

abstract：BACKGROUND:There is a higher risk of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding in patients treated with dabigatran versus warfarin. We analyzed the impact of renal function on the relative risk of bleeding in patients converted to dabigatran.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Estimating total body water (TBW) is crucial in determining dry weight and dialytic dose for hemodialysis patients. Several anthropometric equations have been used to predict TBW, but a more accurate method is needed. We developed an artificial neural network (ANN) to predict TBW in hemodialysis patients. M...
