Although anecdotal evidence suggests a potential association between AS and IgAN, robust epidemiological data remain limited. Previous studies have reported varying prevalence rates of IgAN among AS patients, but these studies are often constrained by small sample sizes and inconsistent methodologies. Establishing a causal relationship between AS and IgAN through conventional observational studies has proven challenging due to confounding factors and reverse causality. Mendelian randomization (MR) offers a promising alternative, utilizing genetic variants to explore causal relationships. This study employs MR combined with bioinformatics analysis to investigate the molecular link between AS and IgAN, aiming to identify potential therapeutic targets.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Two publicly available datasets were utilized: a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of AS (dataset ID: ebi-a-GCST005529) with 9,069 AS cases and 13,578 controls, and IgAN data from the FinnGen project, which included 653 cases and 411,528 controls. Instrumental variables were selected based on stringent criteria. MR analysis was conducted using the inverse variance weighted (IVW), weighted median (WM), and MR-Egger methods to assess the causal relationship between AS and IgAN. Reverse MR analysis and sensitivity analysis were conducted to validate the findings. Bioinformatics analysis involved acquiring gene expression data from the GEO database and identifying differentially expressed genes (DEGs) using the Limma package. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network construction, and hub gene identification were performed to elucidate the biological functions involved.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;24 independent single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with AS were identified through stringent SNP selection. MR analysis revealed a protective causal relationship between AS and IgAN [odds ratio (OR) =0.552, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.339-0.900; P = 0.017]. Analysis of DEGs identified 332 DEGs for IgAN and 5,521 DEGs for AS, with 59 common DEGs shared between the two diseases. Functional enrichment analysis highlighted significant changes in biological processes, cellular components, molecular functions, and KEGG pathways. PPI network analysis identified eight hub genes, including CX3CR1, which links AS and IgAN. External validation confirmed CX3CR1 as a crucial gene associated with both diseases.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;This study provides evidence of a protective causal relationship between AS and IgAN using MR analysis. Furthermore, bioinformatics analysis identifies CX3CR1 as a key gene, suggesting its role in mediating the protective link between AS and IgAN.

To address this gap, a multi-phase project involved collaboration by diverse groups in Alberta, Canada to develop and tailor a pathway that supports person-centred mental health care for Albertans receiving dialysis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;This mixed methods patient-oriented research was conducted in two phases. Phase 1 included: (a) an online clinician survey (n = 199), (b) 11 focus groups and 2 interviews involving 10 people with lived experience and 44 clinicians and administrators, and (c) a scoping review of evidence-based pharmacological treatment. Descriptive analyses of the survey data and summative content analysis of qualitative data (written survey comments and data from focus groups and interviews) were conducted to understand current processes, health services, and interventions for mental health care in Alberta Kidney Care for people receiving dialysis, and to determine appropriateness and opportunities of existing mental health services and interventions. The results were used to develop preliminary statements to inform development of the pathway. Attributes of centeredness in health care - being unique, being heard, and shared responsibility - guided pathway development. Phase 2 involved building consensus on these statements via two rounds of modified Delphi surveys (n = 59 and 51 for rounds 1 and 2, respectively), followed by a consensus call on a virtual platform for discussion and voting involving 27 participants. Voters rated their agreement for each statement using a 3-point Likert scale.

However, the accumulation of misfolded proteins can overwhelm these protective mechanisms, disrupting proteostasis. This phenomenon is a hallmark of numerous pathologies, including a variety of genetic disorders. In the secretory pathway, the buildup of misfolded proteins triggers endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, which activates the unfolded protein response (UPR). The UPR serves as an adaptive mechanism, aiming to alleviate stress and restore cellular homeostasis. However, if ER stress is prolonged or severe, the UPR may fail to restore balance and apoptosis is induced. Summary This review introduces the intricate signaling pathways activated by the three UPR transmembrane sensors: protein-kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK), inositol requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1), and activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6). We briefly present the roles of the distinct transcriptional programs activated by each sensor in modulating the cellular response to protein stress and in determining cell fate. We discuss how genetic variants and environmental factors contribute to the heterogeneity observed in protein misfolding diseases. Finally, we critically evaluate select therapeutic strategies, specifically protein stabilization, trafficking modulation, and UPR sensor targeting approaches. Key message This review introduces the potential consequences of protein misfolding, which may not only impair protein function, but can also lead to toxic protein accumulation and stress induction. Using Fabry disease as a compelling example, we suggest that future therapeutic intervention may require nuanced, combination approaches that address both loss and gain of protein function.</p>","PeriodicalId":18998,"journal":{"name":"Nephron","volume":" ","pages":"1-14"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143557483","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Evidence-based person-centered care interventions focus on listening to the patient's narrative, establishing a partnership between patients and healthcare professionals, and documenting care and treatment in a shared health plan. Therefore, a person-centered care intervention is expected to enhance the patient's ability to manage dialysis at home. This study aimed to identify and map evidence for person-centered interventions and home-based dialysis for individuals with kidney failure. Methods A scoping review was conducted based on the approach of Arksey and O'Malley. A systematic search was carried out in Medline, CINAHL, and Scopus for articles in all languages and without time restrictions. Person-centered care interventions concerning home dialysis were included. Two independent researchers assessed the literature. Data were extracted using NVIVO, and a relational analytical framework was employed to synthesise the data. Results The search identified 9,443 articles, of which 16 met the inclusion criteria. A total of 13 person-centered care interventions were identified. Eight interventions aimed to involve the patient in the decision regarding the type of dialysis modality, with six interventions identified to involve the patient in treatment, illness, and health. Only one intervention was identified to involve the patient in the decisions that follow once the patient has commenced dialysis treatment. Five interventions showed a correlation between a person-centered care intervention and the number of patients in home dialysis.
