The association of profilin-1 levels with survival in chronic kidney disease
(WILEY, 2017)
BackgroundProfilin-1 is a ubiquitous, actin-binding protein that plays an important role in the regulation of actin polymerization and cytoskeleton remodelling and contributes to vascular dysfunction. We conducted this ...

IL-33 and ST2 levels in chronic kidney disease: Associations with inflammation, vascular abnormalities, cardiovascular events, and survival
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2017)
Objective Increased inflammation, associated with the increase in chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage, has a very important influence in vascular injury and cardiovascular diseases. In this study, we aimed to investigate ...
MicroRNA-125b as a new potential biomarker on diagnosis of renal ischemia-reperfusion injury
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2017)
Background: Acute renal failure is commonly seen in the perioperative period. Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury plays a major role in acute renal failure and delayed graft function. MicroRNAs (miRs), which are pivotal ...
Relationship between Fragmented QRS Complex and Aortic Stiffness in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients
(KARGER, 2017)
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between fragmented QRS complex (fQRS), aortic stiffness, and diastolic dysfunction in hemodialysis patients. Subjects and Methods: A sample of 56 patients who received ...
Chitotriosidase as a novel biomarker of early atherosclerosis in hemodialysis patients
(WILEY, 2017)
Introduction: Increasing evidence suggests that inflammation and increased macrophage activity have a central role in pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. It is shown that chitotriosidase (CHIT-1) is a marker of macrophage ...
