Mutations of the UMOD gene are responsible for medullary cystic kidney disease 2 and familial juvenile hyperuricaemic nephropathy
Introduction: Medullary cystic kidney disease 2 (MCKD2) and familial juvenile hyperuricaemic nephropathy (FJHN) are both autosomal dominant renal diseases characterised by juvenile onset of… Expand
Comparison of glycated albumin and hemoglobin A(1c) levels in diabetic subjects on hemodialysis.
- Todd P. Peacock, Z. Shihabi, +6 authors B. Freedman
- Medicine
- Kidney international
- 1 May 2008
Glycated albumin is thought to more accurately reflect glycemic control in diabetic hemodialysis patients than hemoglobin A(1c) because of shortened red cell survival. To test this, glycated… Expand
Characteristics of sudden death in hemodialysis patients.

Hemodialysis (HD) is an intermittent procedure during which large fluid and electrolyte shifts occur. We hypothesized that sudden death occurrences in HD patients are related to the timing of HD, and… Expand

Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease: diagnosis, classification, and management--A KDIGO consensus report.
- K. Eckardt, S. Alper, +10 authors O. Devuyst
- Medicine
- Kidney international
- 1 October 2015
Rare autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease is caused by mutations in the genes encoding uromodulin (UMOD), hepatocyte nuclear factor-1β (HNF1B), renin (REN), and mucin-1 (MUC1).… Expand

BACKGROUND
Sudden and cardiac death (including death from congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, and sudden death) are common occurrences in hemodialysis patients. The intermittent nature… Expand

- 1 April 1999
Current phosphate binders used in hemodialysis patients include calcium-based binders that result in frequent hypercalcemia and aluminum-based binders that result in total body aluminum accumulation… Expand
Mutations causing medullary cystic kidney disease type 1 (MCKD1) lie in a large VNTR in MUC1 missed by massively parallel sequencing
Although genetic lesions responsible for some mendelian disorders can be rapidly discovered through massively parallel sequencing of whole genomes or exomes, not all diseases readily yield to such… Expand

- Medicine
- Circulation
- 7 January 2003
Background—Renal insufficiency has been associated with cardiovascular disease events and mortality in several prospective studies, but the mechanisms for the elevated risk are not clear. Little is… Expand
