A 2-year-old boy was brought by his parents with complaints of difficulty in mouth opening for the past one and half years. He had difficulty in chewing and was malnourished, with developing facial asymmetry. He was diagnosed with right side temporomandibular joint ankylosis. We planned for surgical removal of the ankylotic mass. But we modified the treatment protocol. Instead of doing coronoidectomy after aggressive excision of the ankylotic mass as advocated by Kaban, we did a 'coronoidoplasty' after aggressive excision of the ankylotic mass. Coronoidotomy or coronoidectomy is one of the rungs in the treatment ladder that is followed in surgical management of temporomandibular joint ankylosis. But one of the postoperative complications after coronoidectomy is the open bite. The difficulty to close the mouth becomes more pronounced when bilateral coronoidectomy is done. However, 'coronoidoplasty', as we have done for this patient retains the action of the temporalis muscle on the mandible in closing the mouth, yet removes the mechanical interference of the coronoid process. Postoperatively the patient was able to clench his teeth well, chew properly and there was no open bite.A 67-year-old woman with a history of smoking and cardiovascular risk factors was admitted to the emergency room for uncontrolled diabetes, loss of appetite, nausea, significant weight loss and asthenia. The initial investigation, including cerebral and gastrointestinal explorations, were normal. One month later, she started presenting severe asymmetric proprioceptive ataxia of the lower extremities. She also reported paresthesia and neuropathic pain in both feet and ankles. A positron emission tomography (PET)-scanner showed a hypermetabolic nodule in the right lung. The neurological symptoms were attributed to paraneoplastic sensory and dysautonomic neuropathy, even though the bronchoscopic biopsies came back negative at first. Anti-Hu, anti-CV2/CRMP5 and anti-SOX1 antibodies were documented. Due to the severity and rapid progression of symptoms (from the lower to the upper limbs), corticosteroids, intravenous immunoglobulins and immunosuppressants were introduced prior to biopsies revealing a small-cell lung cancer. Despite these treatments and antineoplastic chemotherapy, her status deteriorated rapidly. Small donor and/or kidney sizes relative to recipient size are associated with a higher risk of kidney allograft failure. Donor and recipient ages are associated with graft survival and may modulate the relationship between size mismatch and the latter. The aim of this study was to determine whether the association between donor-recipient size mismatch and graft survival differs by donor and recipient age. We performed a retrospective cohort study of first adult deceased donor kidney transplantations performed between 2000 and 2018 recorded in the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients. We used multivariable Cox proportional hazards models to assess the association between donor-recipient body surface area ratio and death-censored graft survival, defined as return to dialysis or retransplantation. We considered interactions between donor-recipient body surface area ratio and each of recipient and donor age. Among the 136,321 kidney transplant recipients included in this study, 23,614 (17%) experiem graft survival is modulated by recipient and donor age. Size-mismatched kidneys yield excellent graft survival when the donor is young. Donor age was more strongly associated with graft survival than size mismatch. The Effect of a Reduction in GFR after Nephrectomy on Arterial Stiffness and Central Hemodynamics (EARNEST) study was a multicenter, prospective, controlled study designed to investigate the associations of an isolated reduction in kidney function on BP and arterial hemodynamics. Prospective living kidney donors and healthy controls who fulfilled criteria for donation were recruited from centers with expertise in vascular research. Participants underwent office and ambulatory BP measurement, assessment of arterial stiffness, and biochemical tests at baseline and 12 months. A total of 469 participants were recruited, and 306 (168 donors and 138 controls) were followed up at 12 months. In the donor group, mean eGFR was 27 ml/min per 1.73 m lower than baseline at 12 months. Compared with baseline, at 12 months the mean within-group difference in ambulatory day systolic BP in donors was 0.1 mm Hg (95% confidence interval, -1.7 to 1.9) and 0.6 mm Hg (95% confidence interval, -0.7 to 2.0) in controls. The between-group difference was -0.5 mm Hg (95% confidence interval, -2.8 to 1.7; =0.62). The mean within-group difference in pulse wave velocity in donors was 0.3 m/s (95% confidence interval, 0.1 to 0.4) and 0.2 m/s (95% confidence interval, -0.0 to 0.4) in controls. The between-group difference was 0.1 m/s (95% confidence interval, -0.2 to 0.3; =0.49). Changes in ambulatory peripheral BP and pulse wave velocity in kidney donors at 12 months after nephrectomy were small and not different from controls. NCT01769924 (https//clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01769924). NCT01769924 (https//clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01769924). Expanded hemodialysis therapy enabled by medium cut-off membranes may promote greater clearance of larger middle molecules that comprise putative uremic solutes than conventional high-flux dialysis. This randomized trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of hemodialysis treatment with a medium cut-off dialyzer. Clinically stable patients on maintenance hemodialysis were randomized to receive dialysis with either a medium cut-off dialyzer (Theranova 400) or a high-flux dialyzer (Elisio-17H) over 24 weeks of treatment. The primary safety end point was the predialysis serum albumin level after 24 weeks of treatment. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/nu7441.html The primary efficacy end point was the reduction ratio of free light chains at 24 weeks of treatment. Among 172 patients on maintenance hemodialysis, mean age was 59±13 years, 61% were men, 40% were Black, and mean dialysis vintage was 5±4 years. Of the 86 patients randomized to each dialyzer, 65 completed the trial in each group. The reduction ratio for the removal of free light chains was significantly higher in the Theranova 400 group compared with the Elisio-17H group after 4 weeks (39% versus 20%) and 24 weeks (33% versus 17%; both <0.
