Additionally, by determining the underlying etiology and comorbidities (such as pre-existing CKD or Diabetes). 91 patients have been found who satisfy the inclusion requirements. Material and methods: There were 51 ladies and 40 guys among them. They ranged in age from 20 to 90. The average age was 60.69 years (SD +/- 15.87). There was no difference in the mean age between the genders (63.22 vs. 58.71, p=0.08). Kidney cancer (50.54%), upper urothelial tract carcinoma (25.27%), pyonephrosis (17.58%), and kidney trauma (6.59%) were the primary pathologies for which surgery was performed. The patients were also arbitrarily separated into three age groups: Group A, 20-40 years old; Group B, 41-60 years old; and Group C, over 60 years old. Results: One month after discharge, C-reactive protein increased (p=0.05), and eGFR decreased significantly (p=0.003). The most common comorbidity (74.72%; n=68) was arterial hypertension. Of these, 51.47% (n=35) have diabetes mellitus concurrently. Diabetes was the second-highest occurrence, with 49.45% (n=45) of patients receiving therapy for it. Also, at the time of surgery, 12.08 % (n=11) had CKD, according to KDIGO definition. Since acquired solitary kidney patients are more likely to experience rapidly declining renal function, they require continuous monitoring. Conclusions: Younger individuals are more prone to develop CKD slowly. Therefore, the clinician has to monitor issues like kidney stones or urinary tract infections.","PeriodicalId":45975,"journal":{"name":"Medical-Surgical Journal-Revista Medico-Chirurgicala","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135085492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, DAAs therapy doesn’t eliminate the risk of thrombotic events. The aim of our study was to assess the prevalence of nontumoral portal vein thrombosis (PVT) after SVR and identification of risk factors associated with this complication. Material and methods: We retrospective analyzed a cohort of patients with HCV-related liver cirrhosis treated with paritaprevir/ritonavir, ombitasvir and dasabuvir (PrOD) ± ribavirin and ledipasvir/sofosbuvir (LED/SOF) ± ribavirin for 12/24 weeks, in a gastroenterology center from Romania, between October 2015 and December 2018. All patients with presumption of PVT were evaluated by abdominal ultrasound and confirmed by CT scan. Results: The study included 730 patients treated with DAAs, of which 35 were diagnosed with non-malignant PVT after-SVR (15 men and 20 women, mean age 57.86 ± 7.068 years), corresponding to a prevalence of 4.8%. The mean time from SVR to complication was 290.00 ± 116.639 days. Most patients with non-tumoral PVT after-SVR received LED/SOF (71.4%), while the rest received PrOD (28.6%). Twenty-four patients (68.6%) diagnosed with acute PVT and 11 patients (31.4%) with chronic PVT. During the study, an improvement in liver function was observed, with an improvement in the Child-Pugh and MELD score at the time of SVR; the evolution changes slightly at the 48-week assessment, with a slight increase in the proportion of patients with Child B and MELD ≥ 15. Conclusions: Occurrence of non-malignant PVT in patients with HCV-related liver cirrhosis treated with DAAs correspond to the natural evolution of the cirrhotic patient.","PeriodicalId":45975,"journal":{"name":"Medical-Surgical Journal-Revista Medico-Chirurgicala","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135086025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Material and methods : Several old drugs, belong different chemical and therapeutical classes: oral hypoglycemic drugs (sulfonylurea), proton pump inhibitors, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, statins, H 1 /H 2 antagonists, antineoplastic drugs, alfa-adrenergic agonists, vitamins and antioxidants, were tested for affinity to glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK-3β), using in silico molecular docking studies. In-dirubin-3’-monoxime (I3M) and adenylyl-imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP), were used as GSK-3β reference inhibitors. Moreover, the drugs with the best docking score for GSK-3β, were included in an ADME-Tox study to predict their pharmacokinetic profile. Results: The used computational method was validated using RSMD variation (less than 2 Å) recorded for GSK-3β inhibitors (I3M and AMP-PNP). The results showed that the binding of drugs to GSK-3β involve direct hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions with key amino acids from active site, Lys85, Asp133, Val135, Glu137, Arg141, Gln185, Asp200 and Arg220. Conclusions : Based on in silico results, in term of affinity for GSK-3β and ADME Tox profile, several drugs have theoretical premises to have beneficial effects in HF and could be propose for repurposing approach, which look of finding new clinical indications for existing drugs","PeriodicalId":45975,"journal":{"name":"Medical-Surgical Journal-Revista Medico-Chirurgicala","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135086032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to investigate the associations between renal function parameters (creatinine, urea, estimated glomerular filtration rate-eGFR), both pre-and post-prostatectomy, and histopathological characteristics of prostate adenocarcinomas. Additionally, it evaluates potential correlations with prostate biochemical recurrence, offering insights into kidney function dynamics post-prostatectomy. Material and methods: We analyzed data from 72 patients with prostate adenocarcinoma who underwent radical prostatectomy. Histopathological reevaluation was conducted, including Gleason score, pT stage, prognostic grade groups, and biochemical recurrence assessment. Preoperative and postoperative renal parameters were recorded, and eGFR was calculated using the CKD-EPI formula. Statistical analysis was performed to assess associations. Results: Preoperative eGFR showed a significant association with Gleason score and prognostic grade groups (p<0.05). However, there were no significant correlations between renal parameters and biochemical recurrence or pT stage. Conclusions: This study emphasizes the potential utility of eGFR as a marker for identifying prostate adenocarcinomas with higher Gleason scores and prognostic grade groups. While the complexity of renal function dynamics in prostate cancer warrants further investigation, our findings contribute to understanding the intricate relationship between kidney function and prostate tumor behavior.","PeriodicalId":45975,"journal":{"name":"Medical-Surgical Journal-Revista Medico-Chirurgicala","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135085487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
