Significant rate of hepatitis B reactivation following kidney transplantation in patients with resolved infectionNada Kanaan
Division of Nephrology, Cliniques Universitaires Saint Luc, Universite Catholique de Louvain, Brussels, Belgium
J Clin Virol 55:233-8. 2012..Limited data is available on the risk of hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation in patients with resolved infection undergoing kidney transplantation. It is generally thought that this risk is negligible...
Recurrence and graft loss after kidney transplantation for henoch-schonlein purpura nephritis: a multicenter analysisNada Kanaan
Division of Nephrology, Cliniques Universitaires Saint Luc, Universite Catholique de Louvain, Brussels, Belgium
Clin J Am Soc Nephrol 6:1768-72. 2011..The aim of this study is to re-evaluate, in a large cohort of patients with a long-term follow-up, whether these rates have changed...
CRP measurement: does the assay matter in hemodialysis patients?N Kanaan
Department of Nephrology, Cliniques Universitaires Saint Luc, Universite Catholique de Louvain, Brussels, Belgium
Clin Nephrol 70:503-7. 2008..We hypothesized that the level of CRP as measured by the conventional assay (c-CRP) would predict mortality in hemodialysis patients with an accuracy similar to that of high-sensitivity assays...
Carbohydrate antigen 19-9 as a diagnostic marker for hepatic cyst infection in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney diseaseNada Kanaan
Division of Nephrology, Cliniques Universitaires Saint Luc, Universite Catholique de Louvain, Brussels, Belgium
Am J Kidney Dis 55:916-22. 2010..Although further study is necessary, these data suggest that serum CA 19-9 level is markedly increased during liver cyst infection in kidney transplant recipients with ADPKD and has potential utility as a diagnostic marker...
Fibroblast growth factor-23 and parathyroid hormone are associated with post-transplant bone mineral density lossNada Kanaan
Department of Nephrology, Cliniques Universitaires Saint Luc, 10, Av Hippocrate, 1200 Brussels, Belgium
Clin J Am Soc Nephrol 5:1887-92. 2010..We hypothesized that a high pretransplant level of the recently described phosphaturic hormone fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) is a risk factor for accelerated BMD loss occurring within the first post-transplant year...
Diagnosis of cyst infection in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: attributes and limitations of the current modalitiesFrancois Jouret
Cliniques Universitaires Saint Luc, Universite Catholique de Louvain, Brussels, Belgium
Nephrol Dial Transplant 27:3746-51. 2012..This review summarizes the attributes and limitations of these recent clinical, biological and imaging advances in the diagnosis of cyst infection in patients with ADPKD...
Progression of coronary artery calcification and thoracic aorta calcification in kidney transplant recipientsCéline Maréchal
Division of Nephrology, Cliniques Universitaires Saint Luc, Université Catholique de Louvain Medical School, Brussels, Belgium
Am J Kidney Dis 59:258-69. 2012..Longitudinal studies of vascular calcification in KTRs are few and small and have short follow-up. We assessed the evolution of coronary artery (CAC) and thoracic aorta calcification and their determinants in a cohort of prevalent KTRs...
Positron-emission computed tomography in cyst infection diagnosis in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney diseaseFrancois Jouret
Division of Nephrology, Cliniques Universitaires Saint Luc, Universite Catholique de Louvain, Brussels, Belgium
Clin J Am Soc Nephrol 6:1644-50. 2011..In most patients, conventional imaging techniques are inconclusive. Isolated observations suggest that (18)fluorodeoxyglucose (¹⁸FDG) positron-emission computed tomography (PET/CT) might help detect cyst infection in ADPKD patients...
Donor age and ABCB1 1199G>A genetic polymorphism are independent factors affecting long-term renal function after kidney transplantationMartine De Meyer
Surgery and Abdominal Transplantation Division, Department of Surgery, Cliniques Universitaires Saint Luc, Universite Catholique de Louvain, Brussels, Belgium
J Surg Res 178:988-95. 2012..Our aim was to establish whether long-term renal function is affected by genetic polymorphisms in biotransformation enzymes and drug transporters of the donor after kidney transplantation...
Recurrent pulmonary oedema and severe hypertension after renal transplantation: other reasons than renal artery stenosisNada Kanaan
Department of Nephrology, Cliniques Universitaires Saint-Luc, , Brussels, Belgium
Nephrol Dial Transplant 23:397-9. 2008
