Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBoosting-BoW Algorithm for Finding Kidney Diseases from Medical Test ReportsWisam A. Qader, Abbas M. AliThis paper introduces an approach to increase the accuracy rate of classification by employing Bag-of-Words (BoW) as a feature selection method along with machine learning algorithms to obtain a more accurate output. Because of its capability in quickly processing large sets of data and getting accurate results, this approach can be used in medical areas. Different ensemble approaches are generated … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 26 Apr 2019 · 7,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRelationship between Anti-Ds-DNA Antibodies and Abnormal Kidney Function Tests in Patients with Lupus NephritisFalah Salim Manhal, Hawra'a Adnan MohammedThe majority of patients with Lupus Nephritis (LN) usually have abnormal findings of kidney function tests. Severe glomerular damage may be observed in some patients and requires prompt therapeutic interventions. High titer levels of anti-ds-DNA antibodies may correlate to some extent with disease activity in lupus nephritis patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between anti-ds-DNA … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 21 May 2016 · 9,076 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Virgin Olive Oil (Olea europea. L) on Kidney Function Impairment and Oxidative Stress Induced by Mercuric Chloride in RatsYoucef Necib, Ahlem Bahi, Sakina Zerizer et al.The study was designed to investigate the possible protective role of virgin olive oil in mercuric chloride induced renal stress, by using biochemical approaches. The effects of virgin olive oil on mercuric chloride induced oxidative and renal stress were evaluated by serum creatinine, urea and uric acid levels, kidney tissue lipid peroxidation, GSH levels, GSH-Px and GST activities. Administration of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2013 · 16,786 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleShortage Level of Matching Kidney and Pancreas Organs for Implant is EstimatedRamalingam ShanmugamOrgan transplants are increasingly done worldwide. The organ donors might be dead or alive. There are legal, ethical, medical and administrative issues to procure organs and to transplant them. However, the donor’s organs must fully match the recipient’s requirement before they are quickly transported as the time is the essence. The kidney or pancreas organs are more in demand. When … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 1 Nov 2013 · 6,516 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTweaking Exponential Distribution to Estimate the Chance for More Survival Time if a Cancerous Kidney is RemovedRamalingam ShanmugamPatients with a malignant tumor in the kidney (recognized as hypernephroma in medical practice) are treated by what is known as nephrectomy (that is a surgical removal of the kidney) in addition to a combionation of chemotherapy and immunotherapy for the sake of more survival time. This articles develops and demonstrates a statistical methodology to assess the statistical significance of … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 4 Sep 2013 · 6,218 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleKidney Function Indices in Mice after Long Intake of Agaricus brasiliensis Mycelia (=Agaricus blazei, Agaricus subrufescens) Produced by Solid State CultivationDalla Santa Herta Stutz, Rubel Rosália, Vitola Francisco Menino Destéfanis et al.Problem statement: Agaricus brasiliensis (=Agaricus blazei, Agaricus subrufescens) or Sun mushroom has widespread use for potential health benefits such anti-tumor and immunomodulatory effects. Studies detected that others edible mushrooms affected renal metabolism and despite the widespread use of A. brasiliensis there are no studies that address biological effects on the renal function indices after their oral administration. Therefore, this study … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,149 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSequence Analysis of Scaffold/Matrix Attachment Regions (S/MARs) From Human Embryonic Kidney and Chinese Hamster Ovary CellsNur Shazwani Mohd Pilus, Azrin Ahmad, Nurul Yuziana Mohd YusofBinding of intergenic Scaffold/Matrix Attachment Regions (S/MARs) to nuclear matrix proteins is believed to poise adjacent genes for transcription by forming chromatin loops. Vector constructs containing Scaffold/Matrix Attachment Regions (S/MAR) flanking the gene of interest, therefore, are able to enhance recombinant protein expression in mammalian cells. We compared two methods that are based on buffers containing 2M NaCl and Lithium-3,5-diidosalicylate … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 8 Oct 2018 · 7,630 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Unusual Case of Leptospirosis Presenting as Glomerulonephritis With CrescentsFelipe Guedes Bezerra, Ana Flávia de Holanda Veloso, Yago Sucupira Amaral et al.Leptospirosis is a zoonosis caused by the spirochete Leptospira, which commonly affects the kidneys. Varied renal findings, most commonly tubulointerstitial nephritis, are found in human kidney biopsies and in vivo models. Remarkably, glomeruli are usually spared in this disease. However, some cases report evidence of glomerular damage. We describe a case of leptospirosis with fibroepithelial crescents, a rare histopathological finding. …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 6 Aug 2026 · 1,011 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImpact of B-Glucan Against Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma Induced Renal Toxicity in MiceAhmed Flayyih Hasan, Azhar Azher Alankooshi et al.Several studies have been focused on identifying alternative medicines for the treatment of cancer. This study aimed to investigate the impact of B-Glucans extract (BG) against Ehrlich Ascites Carcinoma (EAC) induced toxicity and tissue damage in kidney. A total of 40 mice were assigned randomly to four groups (G1, control; G2, B-Glucans (75 mg/kg bw/day) orally for 2 weeks; G3, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 1 · 23 Feb 2023 · 5,592 accessesView PDFCite
