Respiratory syncytial virus vaccination induces delayed but robust humoral and cellular immunity in patients receiving hemodialysis<\/span><\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Patients receiving hemodialysis are especially vulnerable to\u00a0respiratory syncytial virus\u00a0(RSV), but vaccine responses in this group are poorly understood.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In a small observational study, the RSV vaccine\u00a0Arexvy\u00a0produced robust antibody and cellular immune responses, although antibody levels rose more slowly than in people with normal kidney function.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Arexvy\u00a0elicited robust immune responses in patients receiving hemodialysis, although antibody responses were delayed.\u00a0Longer dialysis duration was associated with weaker antibody responses.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

IgAN in South Asia<\/span><\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is an underrecognized cause of chronic kidney disease in South Asia, where data and access to newer treatments\u00a0remain\u00a0limited.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Available studies suggest\u00a0relatively poor\u00a0outcomes, with 17% to 37% of patients experiencing major kidney function decline or kidney failure within 12 to 36 months.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The editorial highlights major gaps in regional data\u00a0and calls for stronger local evidence and more\u00a0equitable\u00a0access to effective therapies.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Precision in diagnosis – KM55 (galactose deficient IgA1) staining in clinically diagnosed cases of systemic lupus\u00a0erythematosus with\u00a0IgA\u00a0nephropathy<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

IgA nephropathy and lupus nephritis can have overlapping clinical and biopsy features, making them difficult to distinguish.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In three patients initially diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus and nephritis, KM55 staining\u00a0showed strong positive results\u00a0consistent with IgA nephropathy.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The findings suggest KM55 staining may help improve diagnostic accuracy in challenging cases and support more\u00a0appropriate treatment\u00a0decisions.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
