    Abstract Peritoneal fibrosis is the final process of progressive changes in the peritoneal membrane due to chronic inflammation and infection. It is one of the main causes of discontinuation of peritoneal dialysis (PD), apart from peritonitis and cardiovascular complications. Over time, morphological changes occur in the peritoneal membranes of patients who use PD. Of those are mesothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (MMT), neoangiogenesis, sub-mesothelial fibrosis, and hyalinizing vasculopathy. Several key molecules are involved in the complex pathophysiology of peritoneal fibrosis, including advanced glycosylation end products (AGEs), transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). This narrative review will first discuss the physiology of the peritoneum and PD. Next, the multifaceted pathophysiology of peritoneal fibrosis, including the effects of hyperglycemia and diabetes mellitus on the peritoneal membrane, and the promising biomarkers of peritoneal fibrosis will be reviewed. Finally, the current and future management of peritoneal fibrosis will be discussed, including the potential benefits of new-generation glucose-lowering medications to prevent or slow down the progression of peritoneal fibrosis.

    Abstract Background: Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) is one of the main causes of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in adolescence and young adult. It can be a congenital or an acquired anomaly and its uncommon in adult life.
    Case presentation: A 19th years old male with neurogenic bladder, VUR grade 4, CKD stage 4, malnutrition, and short stature. Radiological examinations show a spastic neurogenic bladder, cystitis, right VUR grade 4. Abdominal ultrasonography (USG) results were bilateral severe hydronephrosis due to post-renal causes. This patient had a history of myelocele excision at the age of 1.5 years. He had recurrent urinary tract infection with CKD stage 4.
    Discussion: The diagnosis of VUR and neurogenic bladder in CKD stage 4 is a rare case in nephrology.
    Conclusion: Indonesian male confirms of diagnosis VUR grade 4, neurogenic bladder, and CKD stage 4.

    Abstract Introduction: Renal cancer is a significant global cause of death and clear cell being the most common subtype. Bilateral synchronous renal cancers with different histologies are extremely rare and less reported. Managing bilateral renal cancer is challenging.
    Clinical presentation: A 51-year-old woman with a history of hypertension and hypothyroidism presented with right loin pain, leading to the discovery of a 7 cm right renal mass and a 2.3 × 2.6 cm mass on the upper pole of the left kidney, associated with reactive right para-aortic lymph nodes. The right kidney mass was identified as leiomyosarcoma with liver metastasis while the left kidney mass was diagnosed as clear cell renal carcinoma. Patient was managed with right side nephrectomy, left side microwave ablation and follow-up chemotherapy.
    Discussion: Primary leiomyosarcoma of kidney is extremely rare and aggressive, leading to poor outcome. Synchronous bilateral renal cancer pose surgical challenges due to potential loss of renal function. In this case of differing histologies in synchronous bilateral renal masses, a nephron-sparing approach was taken, but despite aggressive treatment, the patient developed metastases in the liver and peritoneum.
    Conclusion: Bilateral synchronous renal cancer, particularly with differing histologies in each kidney, are exceptionally uncommon, making their management challenging. Despite the limited guidance available due to their rarity, addressing these cases aggressively and promptly is crucial, as their prognosis is generally unfavorable, necessitating further research to advance management strategies.

    Abstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is associated with a worse prognosis in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients. Identification of AKI, particularly in COVID-19 patients, is important for improving patients' management. The study aims to assess risk factors and comorbidities of AKI in COVID-19 patients. We systematically searched PubMed and DOAJ databases for relevant studies involving confirmed COVID-19 patients with data on risk factors and comorbidities of AKI. The risk factors and comorbidities were compared between AKI and non-AKI patients. A total of 30 studies involving 22385 confirmed COVID-19 patients were included. Male (OR: 1.74 (1.47, 2.05)), diabetes (OR: 1.65 (1.54, 1.76)), hypertension (OR: 1.82 (1.12, 2.95)), ischemic cardiac disease (OR: 1.70 (1.48, 1.95)), heart failure (OR: 2.29 (2.01, 2.59)), chronic kidney disease (CKD) (OR: 3.24 (2.20, 4.79)), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (OR: 1.86 (1.35, 2.57)), peripheral vascular disease (OR: 2.34 (1.20, 4.56)), and history of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) (OR: 1.59 (1.29, 1.98)) were independent risk factors associated with COVID-19 patients with AKI. Patients with AKI presented with proteinuria (OR: 3.31 (2.59, 4.23)), hematuria (OR: 3.25 (2.59, 4.08)), and invasive mechanical ventilation (OR: 13.88 (8.23, 23.40)). For COVID-19 patients, male gender, diabetes, hypertension, ischemic cardiac disease, heart failure, CKD, COPD, peripheral vascular disease, and history of use of NSAIDs are associated with a higher risk of AKI.

    Abstract There is a great interest in monitoring the oxygen supply delivered to the colon. Insufficient oxygen delivery may lead to hypoxia, sepsis, multiorgan dysfunction and death. For assessing colonic perfusion, more information and understanding is required relating to the light-interaction within the colonic tissue. A multilayer Monte Carlo model of a healthy human colon has been developed to investigate the light-tissue behavior during different perfusion states within the mucosal layer of the colon. Results from a static multilayer model of optical path and reflectance at two wavelengths, 660 nm and 880 nm, through colon tissue, containing different volume fractions of blood with a fixed oxygen saturation are presented. The effect on the optical path and penetration depth with varying blood volumes within the mucosa for each wavelength has been demonstrated. The simulation indicated both wavelengths of photons penetrated similar depths, entering the muscularis layer.

    Abstract Background: Two million people in the UK are living with or beyond cancer and a third of them report poor quality of life (QoL) due to problems such as fatigue, fear of cancer recurrence, and concerns about returning to work. We aimed to develop and evaluate an intervention based on acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), suited to address the concerns of cancer survivors and in improving their QoL. We also recognise the importance of exercise and vocational activity on QoL and therefore will integrate options for physical activity and return to work/vocational support, thus ACT Plus (+).
    Methods: We will conduct a multi-centre, pragmatic, theory driven, randomised controlled trial. We will assess whether ACT+ including usual aftercare (intervention) is more effective and cost-effective than usual aftercare alone (control). The primary outcome is QoL of participants living with or beyond cancer measured using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy: General scale (FACT-G) at 52 weeks. We will recruit 344 participants identified from secondary care sites who have completed hospital-based treatment for cancer with curative intent, with low QoL (determined by the FACT-G) and randomise with an allocation ratio of 1:1 to the intervention or control. The intervention (ACT+) will be delivered by NHS Talking Therapies, specialist services, and cancer charities. The intervention consists of up to eight sessions at weekly or fortnightly intervals using different modalities of delivery to suit individual needs, i.e. face-to-face sessions, over the phone or skype.
    Discussion: To date, there have been no robust trials reporting both clinical and cost-effectiveness of an ACT based intervention for people with low QoL after curative cancer treatment in the UK. We will provide high quality evidence of the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of adding ACT+ to usual aftercare provided by the NHS. If shown to be effective and cost-effective then commissioners, providers and cancer charities will know how to improve QoL in cancer survivors and their families.

    Abstract Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a worldwide health problem with a high incidence not only in western countries but also in Indonesia as well. The majority of patients with CKD died due to cardiovascular disease than CKD progression itself. In addition to traditional risk factors, cardiovascular disease in CKD might also due to non-traditional risk factors. Oxidative stress, as non-traditional risk factors, is not only able to explain the high incidence of cardiovascular disease in CKD, but also become a new target in therapeutic intervention. Oxidative stress in patients with CKD appears due to increased oxidant activity and decreased antioxidant system. Hemodialysis (HD) with the use of a cellulose and semi-cellulose membrane also contribute to increase oxidant that can activate the complement pathway. It stimulates inflammation that will further expand the production of oxidants and will ultimately increase oxidative stress.

    Abstract Aim: The study aims to assess minimal apparent diffusion coefficient (ADCmin) and SUVmax as predictors of histological differentiation in patients with anal squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC) and to determine cutoff values for each histopathological tumor grade.
    Patients and methods: A retrospective study of 41 ASCC patients (14 males, 27 females; mean age, 65 ± 13 years) staged with FDG PET/CT and MRI (mean scan time interval, 21 ± 11 days). SUVmax and ADCmin values were measured and compared with histopathological tumor grading obtained from biopsy.
    Results: The mean size and tumor volume were 3 ± 2 cm and 16.5 ± 27.3 cm3, respectively. The mean ADCmin values for well-, moderately, and poorly differentiated ASCC were 935 ± 179, 896 ± 123, and 637 ± 114, respectively. The mean SUVmax for well-, moderately, and poorly differentiated ASCC were 6.9 ± 1.8, 11.5 ± 4.1, and 13.4 ± 2.6, respectively. The difference in mean ADCmin values between poorly and moderately/well-differentiated tumors was statistically significant, whereas this was not significant between moderately and well-differentiated tumors. Differences in SUVmax values were statistically significant between poorly/moderately and well-differentiated tumors, whereas there was no statistical significance between poorly and moderately differentiated tumors. By combining the 2 modalities using cutoff values of 675 × 10-6 mm2·s-1 for ADCmin and 8.5 for SUVmax, it was possible to differentiate the tumor categories with a sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value, respectively, of 84.6%, 96.4%, 91.7%, and 93.1% for well-differentiated ASCC, 76.5%, 87.5%, 81.3%, and 84% for moderately, and 90.9%, 89.3%, 76.9%, and 96.2% for poorly differentiated ASCC, respectively.
    Conclusions: ADCmin and SUVmax values correlated with the degree of differentiation in ASCC and can be used as predictors of tumor grading and aggressiveness. Combined ADCmin and SUVmax cutoff values can therefore be used for early patient risk stratification and treatment decision making.
