Factors associated with therapeutic response in acromegaly diagnosed in the elderly in Spain
(Frontiers, 2022-09-16)[Abstract] Context: Some reports suggest that acromegaly in elderly patients has a more benign clinical behavior and could have a better response to first-generation long-acting somatostatin receptor ligands (SRL). However, ... -
FNDC5 expression and circulating irisin levels are modified by diet and hormonal conditions in hypothalamus, adipose tissue and muscle
(Nature, 2016-07-19)[Abstract] Irisin is processed from fibronectin type III domain-containing protein 5 (FNDC5). However, a controversy exists concerning irisin origin, regulation and function. To elucidate the relationship between serum ... -
Getting the right patient on the right renal replacement therapy
(Karger, 2012-05)[Abstract] Adequate selection of the modality of renal replacement therapy (RRT), ideally based on well-planned predialysis care, informed decision by the patient and timely initiation of dialysis, is essential to optimize ... -
Ghrelin neutralization during fasting-refeeding cycle impairs the recuperation of body weight and alters hepatic energy metabolism
(Elsevier, 2011)[Abstract] Ghrelin, a hormone whose levels increase during food deprivation, plays a pivotal role in the regulation of food intake, energy metabolism and storage, as well as in insulin sensitivity. Here, we investigated ... -
Giant non-functioning pituitary adenoma: clinical characteristics and therapeutic outcomes
(Thieme, 2020-01-02)[Abstract] Background: Giant pituitary adenoma (≥4 cm) is a rare tumor whose clinical features and prognosis are not well known. Aim: To evaluate the clinical characteristics and therapeutic outcomes of giant non-functioning ... -
Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist-induced pituitary adenoma apoplexy and casual finding of a parathyroid carcinoma: a case report and review of literature
(Baishideng Publishing Group, 2019-10-26)[Absatract] BACKGROUND Pituitary apoplexy represents one of the most serious, life threatening endocrine emergencies that requires immediate management. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) can induce pituitary ... -
Guía clínica de adecuación y prescripción de la diálisis peritoneal
(Elsevier, 2024-03-11)[Resumen] En los últimos años se ha modificado el significado de adecuación en diálisis peritoneal. Hemos asistido a una transición desde un concepto de adecuación enfocado esencialmente a la obtención de unos objetivos ... -
Guía clínica de la Sociedad Española de Nefrología para la prevención y tratamiento de la infección peritoneal en diálisis peritoneal
(Elsevier, 2022-04)[Resumen] Las infecciones peritoneales siguen constituyendo una complicación muy relevante de la diálisis peritoneal, por su incidencia todavía elevada y por sus importantes consecuencias clínicas, en términos de mortalidad, ... -
High rates of protein intake are associated with an accelerated rate of decline of residual kidney function in incident peritoneal dialysis patients
(Oxford Academic, 2019-01-04)[Abstract] Background Preservation of residual kidney function (RKF) is a relevant objective in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. The influence of dietary protein intake (PI) on this variable has not been adequately ... -
Hypothalamic miR-30 regulates puberty onset via repression of the puberty-suppressing factor, Mkrn3
(Public Library of Science (PLoS), 2019-11-07)[Abstract] Mkrn3, the maternally imprinted gene encoding the makorin RING-finger protein-3, has recently emerged as putative pubertal repressor, as evidenced by central precocity caused by MKRN3 mutations in humans; ... -
Importance of exercise in the control of metabolic and inflammatory parameters at the moment of onset in type 1 diabetic subjects
(Thieme, 2014-05-05)[Abstract] The onset of type 1 diabetes coincides with the final phase of β-cell destruction. In some cases, this period is characterized by the presence of a functional reserve of β-cells, favouring an adequate metabolic ... -
Influence of Age on Rat Bone-Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Potential
(Nature, 2015-11-19)[Abstract] Mesenchymal stem cells promising role in cell-based therapies and tissue engineering appears to be limited due to a decline of their regenerative potential with increasing donor age. Six age groups from bone ... -
Low serum levels of vitamin D are associated with progression of subclinical atherosclerotic vascular disease in peritoneal dialysis patients: a prospective, multicenter study
(Karger, 2017-02-25)[Abstract] Background: The prevalence of subclinical atherosclerosis and the main predictors of progression of this condition in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD) have been insufficiently investigated. Objectives ... -
Mitochondrial dysfunction plays a relevant role in pathophysiology of peritoneal membrane damage induced by peritoneal dialysis
(MDPI, 2021-03-13)[Abstract] Preservation of the peritoneal membrane is an essential determinant of the long-term outcome of peritoneal dialysis (PD). Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a central role in the pathogenesis of ... -
Oral glucose-stimulated growth hormone (GH) test in adult GH deficiency patients and controls: potential utility of a novel test
(Elsevier para European Federation of Internal Medicine, 2017-06-09)[Abstract] Context. The diagnosis of adult GH deficiency requires confirmation with a GH stimulation test. Oral glucose (OG) administration affects GH secretion, initially decreasing and subsequently stimulating GH ... -
Peritoneal dialysis Is an independent factor associated to lower intima media thickness in dialysis patients free from previous cardiovascular disease
(Frontiers, 2018-12-04)[Abstract] Carotid intima media thickness (cIMT) displays prognostic value as a marker of cardiovascular risk in dialysis patients. However, few data are available regarding the impact of dialysis modality on cIMT. The aim ... -
