A fasting-mimicking diet (FMD) restored kidney function in a rodent model and promoted renoprotection in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) by reducing proteinuria and improving endothelial ...

Researchers at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine have created a scoring model that uses key health indicators to accurately predict recovery for patients who experience kidney failure ...

This study aimed to create and validate a predictive model for renal function following live kidney donation, using pre-donation factors. Accurately predicting remaining renal function post live ...

In a world first, scientists at Duke-NUS Medical School, the National Heart Center Singapore (NHCS) and colleagues in Germany have shown that regenerative therapy to restore impaired kidney function ...

The ability to intentionally and reproducibly cryopreserve living biological systems, including cells, tissues, organs, and even whole organisms, began in 1949 with the preservation of fowl sperm ...

In patients with chronic kidney disease, the loss of podocytes—part of the kidney's glomerular filtration barrier—causes irreversible disease progression. So far, physicians and researchers have found ...
