Epidemiology of dyslipidemia in chronic kidney disease.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Although congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) are the most common cause of pediatric end-stage renal disease (ESRD), little is known about the characteristics exhibited in the infantile period by CAKUT patients who develop ESRD. Further, an efficient screening method for CAKUT diagnos...

abstract：:Increasing attention has been paid to the relationship of autoantibodies to ribosomal P proteins (anti-P) with lupus nephritis. Several mechanisms of involvement of anti-P in lupus nephritis have been proposed, including cross-reactivity with anti-dsDNA and anti-endothelial cell antibodies (AECA). In addition, it is a...
