Abstract
Ustekinumab is a first-line drug for Crohn's disease. However, little is known about its potential adverse effects on renal function. We present the case of a 42-year-old man with Crohn's disease who developed chronic renal dysfunction during ustekinumab treatment, which resolved after discontinuing ustekinumab. The findings underscore the importance of close monitoring of renal function in patients receiving ustekinumab, particularly those with preexisting kidney disease or risk factors for renal dysfunction.
期刊介绍:
We also encourage the submission of manuscripts presenting preclinical and very preliminary research that may stimulate further investigation of potentially relevant findings, as well as in-depth review articles on specific therapies or disease states, and applied health delivery or pharmacoeconomics.
CTR encourages and supports the submission of manuscripts describing:
• Interventions designed to understand or improve human health, disease treatment or disease prevention;
• Studies that focus on problems that are uncommon in resource-rich countries;
• Research that is "under-published" because of limited access to monetary resources such as English language support and Open Access fees (CTR offers deeply discounted English language editing);
• Republication of articles previously published in non-English journals (eg, evidence-based guidelines) which could be useful if translated into English;
• Preclinical and clinical product development studies that are not pursued for further investigation based upon early phase results.
