Abstract
BACKGROUND Peanuts and tree nut allergies pose an increasing food safety problem. The aim of our study was to test the accuracy of different commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits in the detection of the presence of walnuts in untreated and heat exposed food samples. The effects of thermal treatment of samples were evaluated by exposing walnuts to different heat treatments. All samples were first analysed by two different commercial ELISA assays. Then, we performed a skin prick test (SPT) on nine patients with proven nut allergy using small walnut pieces from raw and treated samples. RESULTS The presence of nuts proteins in thermally processed foods was not accurately detected by ELISA kits. All patients had a positive SPT reaction with raw walnut, while thermal treatments affected walnut allergenicity. The ELISA test gives a negative result in the case of strong thermal treatment, but at the same time allergic subjects react positively to stimulation with the same sample. CONCLUSION This study suggests that commercial ELISA kits may not be able to accurately determine the amount of proteins present in thermally processed foods due to changes in the solubility and immunoreactivity of the target proteins. Finally, the clinical results highlight that thermal treatment might induce a reduction in walnut allergenicity. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
2 cases of acute renal failure associated with diclofenac therapy are reported. In the 1st case no other risk factors but diclofenac administration were identified. Renal biopsy showed patchy interstitial infiltration of mononuclear cells and polymorphonuclear leukocytes. In the 2nd case preexisting nephropathy and heart failure were underlying illnesses. In both cases renal function returned to the basal values after stopping the drug.

Abstract
In 20 patients with nephrotic syndrome (10 minimal change glomerulonephritis, MCN; 10 focal glomerulosclerosis, FGS) the peripheral blood lymphocytes showed a statistically significant increase in IgG-bearing cells (SIgG-C) in comparison with 30 patients with other histological types of primary glomerulonephritis with and without nephrotic syndrome (14 and 16, respectively). In the same MCN and FGS patients the serum IgG levels were slightly decreased. Furthermore, 5 cases of MCN in sustained remission for 1 year after steroid therapy showed normalization of the SIgG-C and the serum IgG levels. The possible significance of these phenomena in the pathogenesis of the hypo-IgG-globulinemia in MCN and FGS is discussed.

Abstract
Urines of 6 normal subjects, collected during three consecutive 12-hour periods, were examined for proteinuria and albuminuria. During the first period, subjects were kept in the upright position, and during the next two periods in the recumbent position. Both position (upright and recumbent) and the urine collection period (day or night) significantly modify protein and albumin excretion. Proteinuria is more sensitive to different posture and albuminuria to different times of urine collection.

Abstract
Two cases of Fabry's disease (FD) with lymphedema of the lower limbs are reported. On the basis of lymphographic investigations showing lymphatic aplasia, the hypothesis of an inborn error in the development of the lymphatic system of the lower limbs--Familial Lymphedema--controlled by a gene associated with FD gene on the same chromosome, is suggested.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The clinical and bioptic aspects of 211 cases of primary mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis with urinary abnormalities lasting mre than 1 year were reviewed. We observed the following clinical syndromes: 1) Persistent proteinuria, isolated or with microhematuria: - a) with latent onset: 39% with hypertension (H); 10% with renal failure (RF); - b) with acute nephritic syndrome at onset: 31% with H; 6% with RF; 2) Recurrent macroscopic hematuria: 26% with H; 10% with RF; 3) Nephrotic syndrome: 70% with H; 29% with RF. The histological lesions, diffuse in all cases, appeared unrelated to the clinical syndromes and/or immunofluorescent patterns. In 65 cases with prevalent mesangial deposits of IgA, 46% showed persistent proteinuria with latent onset, 23% persistent proteinuria with acute nephritic syndrome at onset, 28% recurrent hematuria and 3% nephrotic syndrome. 37% of such patients developed H, 14% RF and 6% remission (R). On the other hand in 65 patients with other deposits the clinical aspects were as follows: persistent proteinuria with latent onset: 46%; persistent proteinuria with acute nephritic syndrome at onset: 31%; recurrent hematuria: 17%; nephrotic syndrome: 6%. 35% of these cases displayed H; 9% RF and 8% R. CONCLUSION primary mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis appears to represent a heterogeneous group with only the morphological aspects in common and associated with one of the three above-mentioned clinical syndromes. Immunohistology shows different Ig and/or complement which bear no specific relationship with clinical courses. In particular IgA deposits are present in 50% of the cases and are only related to higher incidence of recurrent hematuria and abnormal IgA serum levels.

Abstract
Glomerular hemodynamics were studied, by micropuncture, in Munich-Wistar rats submitted to 24-hour bilateral ureteral ligation (BUL). Glomerular capillary pressure (PG), intratubular pressure (PT), and pressure in the first order peritubular capillaries (EAP) were measured with a servonulling device. Single nephron filtration fraction (SNFF) was calculated from arterial and peritubular blood protein concentrations. Single nephron glomerular filtration rate (SNGFR) was both measured by conventional micropuncture techniques and calculated from efferent arteriole blood flow and SNFF. Afferent arteriole blood flow (AABF) and resistance of afferent (Ra) and efferent (Re) arteriole were calculated. Measurements were repeated in the left kidney after releasing the ureter. Sham operated rats were used as control. BUL caused a fall in SNGFR (from 101.8 +/- 9.7 to 40.7 +/- [SEM] 6.0 nl/min/kg body wt), accounted for by a rise in PT (from 14.1 +/- 0.7 to 28.9 +/- 3.1 mm Hg), glomerular hemodynamics (particularly PG and AABF) being unchanged. A marked increase in Ra (from 6.6 +/- 0.7 to 10.8 +/- 1.5 dynes. sec. cm-5) occurred after releasing the ureter, lessening both PG and AABF. Therefore, a low SNGFR was maintained despite the concomitant normalization of PT.

Abstract
Glomerular hemodynamics were studied, by micropuncture, in Munich-Wistar rats submitted to 24-hour unilateral ureteral ligation (UUL). Glomerular capillary pressure (PG), intratubular pressure (PT) and pressure in the first-order peritubular capillaries (EAP) were measured with a servonulling device. Single nephron filtration fraction (SNIFF) was calculated fmom arterial and peritubular blood protein concentration. SNGFR was both measured by conventional micropuncture techniques and calculated from efferent arteriole blood flow (EABF) and SNFF. Afferent arteriole blood flow (AABF) and resistance of afferent (Ra) and efferent (Re) arterioles were calculated. Measurements were repeated 1 to 2 hours after the release of the ureter. Sham-operated rats were used as control. UUL caused a marked increase in Ra (from 4.9 +/- [SD] 2.4 to 12.7 +/- 5.1 dynes/sec/cm-5). The fall in SNGFR (from 111.9 +/- [SD] 23.9 to 34.4 +/- 23.1 nl/min/kg body wt) was secondary to a decrease in both PG and AABF. A further increase in Ra (16.0 +/- 6.7 dynes.sec.cm-5) occurred after releasing the ureter. SNGFR, however, was unaltered (33.7 +/- 16.6 nl/min/kg body wt) since PG decreased parallel to PT, but AABF did not significantly change. Conclusion. Ureteral obstruction determines, in 24 hours, a marked cortical ischemia that is not promptly reversed by ureteral release.

Abstract
The clinical experience obtained with 2 hours every other day recirculation dialysis, using 20-40 liters of dialysate, without sorbents, and standard cuprophane dialyzers of 1.0-1.5 sq.mt. is reported. So far, over 350 treatments in 8 patients have been performed. After 2 hours of treatment the removal of urea, creatinine, phosphate and uric acid, is similar to that obtained by 4-6 hours of haemofiltration. The alkalinazation of the patient through direct venous infusion of bicarbonate, makes predialysis acid-base significantly better than in standard haemodialysis and haemofiltration. Asymptomatic correction of severe fluid overload is easily obtained like in isolated ultrafiltration. The role of osmolality and vasopressors are discussed. A dry weight below the value obtained by previous dialysis treatment is achieved, and volume dependent hypertensions as in haemofiltration are corrected after 2-8 weeks. As an additional advantage, this method offers a highly semplified technical approach and a further reduction of the dialysis time.

Abstract
In order to study the effects of acute ureteral obstruction on glomerular hemodynamics, glomerular hydrostatic capillary pressure (PG), pressure in the first-order peritubular capillaries (EAP), and intratubular pressure (PT) were directly measured in superficial nephrons on Munich-Wistar rats by micropuncture with a servo-nulling device, in control conditions and one to two hours after ureteral ligation. Single nephron filtration fraction (SNFF) was calculated from arterial and peritubular blood protein concentration. SNGFR was measured by conventional micropuncture techniques in control conditions and was calculated from efferent arteriole blood flow (EABF) and SNFF during ureteral obstruction. EABF was obtained by timed complete collection of blood from superficial efferent arterioles. Afferent arteriole blood flow (AABF) and resistance of afferent (Ra) and efferent arterioles (Re) were calculated from conventional equations. Ureteral obstruction markedly increased PT from 12.9 +/- 1.4 to 36.8 +/- 6.1 (SD) mm Hg. The fall in SNGFR (from 23.3 +/- 6.4 to 17.9 +/- 5.2 [SD] nl/min) was blunted by the rise in PG (from 45.5 +/- 3.6 to 59.3 +/- 4.0 [SD] mm Hg) and AABF (from 130.0 +/- 59.1 to 144.2 +/- 69.0 [SD] nl/min), secondary to a fall in Ra. These results demonstrate that SNGFR is maintained early after complete ureteral obstruction because of afferent arteriole dilatation.

Abstract
Hemodynamic pressure in glomerular capillaries (GCP) and in first order peritubular capillaries (EAP) in superficial nephrons of mutant Wistar rats with surface glomeruli was measured by micropuncture with a servo-nulling device in the following conditions: 1) control;2) norepinephrine infusion (NE); 3) epinephrine infusion (E): 4) dopamine infusion (D); 5) hemorrhagic hypotension (HH); 6) HH + NE; 7) HH + E; 8) HH + D; 9) acute hypertension secondary to bilateral cervical vagotomy and occlusion of both common carotid arteries. BP was also recorded. Both GCP/BP and EAP/GCP ratios averaged 0.40 in control conditions, but only the EAP/GCP ratio remained constant in all conditions under study, indicating that approximately 60% of the hydrostatic pressure in glomerular capillaries is constantly dissipated by the efferent arteriole. When all values of EAP were plotted against the respective values of GCP, a liner relationship was detected (r=0.843). These results indicate that changes of pressure in the first order peritubular capillaries of superficial nephrons are merely secondary to changes in glomerular capillary pressure.

Abstract
The following method is proposed to make the serum concentration of the middle molecules evident and to isolate them: 1) Fractioning of serum by gel filtration with sephadex G 75 columns in order to eliminate proteins and other substances with mol. weight less than 3,000-3,500. 2) Collection of fractions with mol. weight greater than 3,000-3,500 their lyophilisation and their successive gel filtration by sephadex G 15 columns. The concentration of substances in the single fractions is evaluated by ultraviolet light absorption (wave length 254 nm). The peaks of the patterns show a great difference between normals and uremics. The uremic peaks are always higher than normals. The mol. weight the substances in the peaks obtained by gel filtration with sephadex G 75 and G 15 was verified by radiolabelled substances of known mol. weight added before gel filtration. The substances isolated by sephadex G 75 from 10 and 20 cases of uremics and normal controls were diafiltered by Diaflo membrane UM 05 (nominal mol. weight cut - off 500). The diafiltered substances (mol. weight between 500 and 3,500) were investigated. A great difference between uremics and normal controls of dry mol. weight was observed, while the percentage concentration of C, H, N and of amino acids evaluated after acid hydrolysis showed no difference between the two groups. The liberation of amino acids after acid hydrolysis confirmed the presence of peptides among the middle molecules. Middle molecules in the urine of uremic and normal subjects have been investigated by the same method.

Abstract
The results regarding the treatment of 55 patients, 6 of them treated for, at least 10 months, with 1 sq. meter disposable dialyzers and a dialysis strategy of 3 hours every other day or 4 hours trice weekly have been presented. Clinical indexes especially regarding erythropoiesis and peripheral nerve status will be discussed. Th results show that this new method of treatment is feasible and may become in the future a routine strategy for chronic intermittent dialysis.

Abstract
The plasma concentration and urinary excretion after a single 500 mg dose of Aminosidine have been studied in 12 patients with different degrees of renal failure and 4 normal subjects. In normal subjects the plasma half-life is 2.47 hr; in patients with creatinine clearance (Ccr) of 30-60 ml/min, its 6.7 hrs.; in patients with Ccr of 10-30 ml/min, it is 16.7hrs.; in patients with Ccr less than 10 ml/min, it is 36.6 hrs. A dose of 0.5 g of Aminosidine should be given to normal subjects every 12 hr. When renal function is reduced, the interval (in hr) between doses should be the following: Ccr 60-40 ml/min: 19-28;Ccr 40-30 ml/min; 28-35; Ccr 30-20 ml/min: 35-47; Ccr 20-10 ml/min: 47; Ccr less than 10 ml/min: 76.
