Abstract

We present chromosome-level genome assemblies from representative species of three independently evolved seagrass lineages: Posidonia oceanica, Cymodocea nodosa, Thalassia testudinum and Zostera marina. We also include a draft genome of Potamogeton acutifolius, belonging to a freshwater sister lineage to Zosteraceae. All seagrass species share an ancient whole-genome triplication, while additional whole-genome duplications were uncovered for C. nodosa, Z. marina and P. acutifolius. Comparative analysis of selected gene families suggests that the transition from submerged-freshwater to submerged-marine environments mainly involved fine-tuning of multiple processes (such as osmoregulation, salinity, light capture, carbon acquisition and temperature) that all had to happen in parallel, probably explaining why adaptation to a marine lifestyle has been exceedingly rare. Major gene losses related to stomata, volatiles, defence and lignification are probably a consequence of the return to the sea rather than the cause of it. These new genomes will accelerate functional studies and solutions, as continuing losses of the 'savannahs of the sea' are of major concern in times of climate change and loss of biodiversity.

Abstract

Seagrasses colonized the sea on at least three independent occasions to form the basis of one of the most productive and widespread coastal ecosystems on the planet. Here we report the genome of Zostera marina (L.), the first, to our knowledge, marine angiosperm to be fully sequenced. This reveals unique insights into the genomic losses and gains involved in achieving the structural and physiological adaptations required for its marine lifestyle, arguably the most severe habitat shift ever accomplished by flowering plants. Key angiosperm innovations that were lost include the entire repertoire of stomatal genes, genes involved in the synthesis of terpenoids and ethylene signalling, and genes for ultraviolet protection and phytochromes for far-red sensing. Seagrasses have also regained functions enabling them to adjust to full salinity. Their cell walls contain all of the polysaccharides typical of land plants, but also contain polyanionic, low-methylated pectins and sulfated galactans, a feature shared with the cell walls of all macroalgae and that is important for ion homoeostasis, nutrient uptake and O2/CO2 exchange through leaf epidermal cells. The Z. marina genome resource will markedly advance a wide range of functional ecological studies from adaptation of marine ecosystems under climate warming, to unravelling the mechanisms of osmoregulation under high salinities that may further inform our understanding of the evolution of salt tolerance in crop plants.

Abstract

Background Patients with stage 4/5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) suffer from various symptoms. The retention of uremic solutes is thought to be associated with those symptoms. However, there are relatively few rigorous studies on the potential links between uremic toxins and symptoms in patients with CKD. Methods The EQUAL study is an ongoing observational cohort study of non-dialyzed patients with stage 4/5 CKD. EQUAL patients from Germany, Poland, Sweden and the UK were included in the present study (n = 795). Data and symptom self-report questionnaires were collected between April 2012 and September 2020. Baseline uric acid and parathyroid hormone and 10 uremic toxins were quantified. We tested the association between uremic toxins and symptoms and adjusted P-values for multiple testing. Results Symptoms were more frequent in women than in men with stage 4/5 CKD, while levels of various uremic toxins were higher in men. Only trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO; positive association with fatigue), p-cresyl sulfate (PCS) with constipation and 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropionic acid (negative association with shortness of breath) demonstrated moderately strong associations with symptoms in adjusted analyses. The association of phenylacetylglutamine with shortness of breath was consistent in both sexes, although it only reached statistical significance in the full population. In contrast, TMAO (fatigue) and PCS and phenylacetylglutamine (constipation) were only associated with symptoms in men, who presented higher serum levels than women. Conclusion Only a limited number of toxins were associated with symptoms in persons with stage 4/5 CKD. Other uremic toxins, uremia-related factors or psychosocial factors not yet explored might contribute to symptom burden.

Abstract

AIM: To check the safety and efficacy of boceprevir/ telaprevir with peginterferon/ribavirin for hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 in the real-world settings. METHODS: This study was a non-randomized, observational, prospective, multicenter. This study involved 47 centers in Italy. A database was prepared for the homogenous collection of the data, was used by all of the centers for data collection, and was updated continuously. All of the patients enrolled in this study were older than 18 years of age and were diagnosed with chronic infection due to HCV genotype 1. The HCV RNA testing was performed using COBAS-TaqMan2.0 (Roche, LLQ 25 IU/mL). RESULTS: All consecutively treated patients were included. Forty-seven centers enrolled 834 patients as follows: Male 64%; median age 57 (range 18-78), of whom 18.3% were over 65; mean body mass index 25.6 (range 16-39); genotype 1b (79.4%); diagnosis of cirrhosis (38.2%); and fibrosis F3/4 (71.2%). The following drugs were used: Telaprevir (66.2%) and PEG-IFN-alpha2a (67.6%). Patients were naïve (24.4%), relapsers (30.5%), partial responders (14.8%) and null responders (30.3%). Overall, adverse events (AEs) occurred in 617 patients (73.9%) during the treatment. Anemia was the most frequent AE (52.9% of cases), especially in cirrhotic. The therapy was stopped for 14.6% of the patients because of adverse events or virological failure (15%). Sustained virological response was achieved in 62.7% of the cases, but was 43.8% in cirrhotic patients over 65 years of age. CONCLUSION: In everyday practice, triple therapy is safe but has moderate efficacy, especially for patients over 65 years of age, with advanced fibrosis, nonresponders to peginterferon + ribavirin.

Abstract

No abstract, Viene descritta una paziente affetta da insufficienza renale rapidamente progressiva. Il caso appare interessante soprattutto perché mette in evidenza come una condizione patologica potenzialmente letale possa manifestarsi nel paziente per lungo tempo in forma oligo-asintomatica, e quindi più facilmente aggredibile se riconosciuta precocemente, prima di manifestarsi in tutta la sua esplosività.

13. Rrp5 establishes a checkpoint for 60S assembly during 40S maturation

Author

Khoshnevis, Sohail, Liu, Xin, Dattolo, Maria D., and Karbstein, Katrin

Abstract

Even though the RNAs contained in the small (40S) and large (60S) ribosomal subunits are cotranscribed, their assembly proceeds largely separately, involving entirely distinct machineries. Nevertheless, separation of the two subunits, an event that is critical for assembly of the small subunit, is delayed until domain I of the large subunit is transcribed, indicating crosstalk between the two assembly pathways. Here we show that this crosstalk is mediated by the assembly factor Rrp5, one of only three proteins required for assembly of both ribosomal subunits. Quantitative RNA binding and cleavage data demonstrate that early on, Rrp5 blocks separation of the two subunits, and thus 40S maturation by inhibiting the access of Rcl1 to promote cleavage of the nascent rRNA. Upon transcription of domain I of 25S rRNA, the 60S assembly factors Noc1/Noc2 bind both this RNA and Rrp5 to change the Rrp5 RNA binding mode to enable pre-40S rRNA processing. Mutants in the HEAT-repeat domain of Noc1 are deficient in the separation of the subunits, which is rescued by overexpression of wild-type but not inactive Rcl1 in vivo. Thus, Rrp5 establishes a checkpoint for 60S assembly during 40S maturation to ensure balanced levels of the two subunits.

Abstract

The intensification of anomalous events of seawater warming and the co-occurrence with local anthropogenic stressors are threatening coastal marine habitats, including seagrasses, which form extensive underwater meadows. Eutrophication highly affects coastal environments, potentially summing up to the widespread effects of global climate changes. In the present study, we investigated for the first time in seagrasses, the transcriptional response of different plant organs (i.e., leaf and shoot apical meristem, SAM) of the Mediterranean seagrass Posidonia oceanica growing in environments with a different history of nutrient enrichment. To this end, a mesocosm experiment exposing plants to single (nutrient enrichment or temperature increase) and multiple stressors (nutrient enrichment plus temperature increase), was performed. Results revealed a differential transcriptome regulation of plants under single and multiple stressors, showing an organ-specific sensitivity depending on plants' origin. While leaf tissues were more responsive to nutrient stress, SAM revealed a higher sensitivity to temperature treatments, especially in plants already impacted in their native environment. The exposure to stress conditions induced the modulation of different biological processes. Plants living in an oligotrophic environment were more responsive to nutrients compared to plants from a eutrophic environment. Evidences that epigenetic mechanisms were involved in the regulation of transcriptional reprogramming were also observed in both plants' organs. These results represent a further step in the comprehension of seagrass response to abiotic stressors pointing out the importance of local pressures in a global warming scenario. [Display omitted] • Local pressure influence plants' transcriptional responses to stress. • Plants in eutrophic sites will be more impacted by seawater temperature increase. • Organ-specific vulnerability to single and multiple stresses. • Potential epigenetic regulation of transcriptional responses to stress.

Author

Pizzarelli, Francesco, Cerrai, Tiziano, Dattolo, Pietro, and Ferro, Giuseppe

Abstract

In patients on on-line convective treatments, given the considerable quantity of dialysis fluid re-infused, the small amount of acetate present in bicarbonate dialysis fluid as a pH stabilizing factor may allow a significant transfer of that anion to the patient, possibly inducing cytokine activation.

30. Active distributed framework for adaptive hypermedia

Author

DATTOLO, ANTONINA and LOIA, VINCENZO

Abstract

Navigation through large hypermedia information spaces is complex and is an important application area for adaptive hypermedia systems. User navigation can be best supported when the design of the hypermedia system is embedded in an evolutionary process model that takes into account the decentralization of data sources and the variety of users. The paper deals with distributed frameworks for open hypermedia systems; it focuses on the design work done to make adaptive an existing actor-based architecture for hypermedia. The approach follows the initial design approach used in the definition of the hypermedia platform, i.e. the actor-based computational model. We present in detail the new actor classes and the cooperative schemes which allow adaptation within the resulting architecture.

Abstract

This study aims to estimate the mean annual social cost per patient with chronic kidney disease (CKD) by stages 4 and 5 pre-dialyses and cost components in Italy. The multicenter cross-sectional study included all adult outpatients in charge of the 14 main Nephrology Centers of Tuscany Region during 7 weeks from 2012 to 2013. Direct medical costs have been estimated using tariffs for laboratory tests, diagnostic exams, visits, hospitalization and prices for drugs. Non-medical costs included expenses of low-protein special foods, travel, and formal and informal care. Patients’ and caregivers’ losses of productivity have been estimated as indirect costs using the human capital approach. Costs have been expressed in Euros (2016). Totals of 279 patients in stage 4 and 205 patients in stage 5 have been enrolled. The estimated mean annual social cost of a patient with CKD were €7422 (±€6255) for stage 4 and €8971 (±€6503) for stage 5 (p

Abstract

Introduction: Predicting the timing and occurrence of kidney replacement therapy (KRT), cardiovascular events, and death among patients with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) is clinically useful and relevant. We aimed to externally validate a recently developed CKD G4+ risk calculator for these outcomes and to assess its potential clinical impact in guiding vascular access placement. Methods: We included 1517 patients from the European Quality (EQUAL) study, a European multicentre prospective cohort study of nephrology-referred advanced CKD patients aged ≥65 years. Model performance was assessed based on discrimination and calibration. Potential clinical utility for timing of referral for vascular access placement was studied with diagnostic measures and decision curve analysis (DCA). Results: The model showed a good discrimination for KRT and “death after KRT,” with 2-year concordance (C) statistics of 0.74 and 0.76, respectively. Discrimination for cardiovascular events (2-year C-statistic: 0.70) and overall death (2-year C-statistic: 0.61) was poorer. Calibration was fairly accurate. Decision curves illustrated that using the model to guide vascular access referral would generally lead to less unused arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) than following estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) thresholds. Conclusion: This study shows moderate to good predictive performance of the model in an older cohort of nephrology-referred patients with advanced CKD. Using the model to guide referral for vascular access placement has potential in combating unnecessary vascular surgeries.

Abstract

Background Depressive symptoms are associated with adverse clinical outcomes in patients with end-stage kidney disease; however, few small studies have examined this association in patients with earlier phases of chronic kidney disease (CKD). We studied associations between baseline depressive symptoms and clinical outcomes in older patients with advanced CKD and examined whether these associations differed depending on sex. Methods CKD patients (≥65 years; estimated glomerular filtration rate ≤20 mL/min/1.73 m2) were included from a European multicentre prospective cohort between 2012 and 2019. Depressive symptoms were measured by the five-item Mental Health Inventory (cut-off ≤70; 0–100 scale). Cox proportional hazard analysis was used to study associations between depressive symptoms and time to dialysis initiation, all-cause mortality and these outcomes combined. A joint model was used to study the association between depressive symptoms and kidney function over time. Analyses were adjusted for potential baseline confounders. Results Overall kidney function decline in 1326 patients was –0.12 mL/min/1.73 m2/month. A total of 515 patients showed depressive symptoms. No significant association was found between depressive symptoms and kidney function over time (P = 0.08). Unlike women, men with depressive symptoms had an increased mortality rate compared with those without symptoms [adjusted hazard ratio 1.41 (95% confidence interval 1.03–1.93)]. Depressive symptoms were not significantly associated with a higher hazard of dialysis initiation, or with the combined outcome (i.e. dialysis initiation and all-cause mortality). Conclusions There was no significant association between depressive symptoms at baseline and decline in kidney function over time in older patients with advanced CKD. Depressive symptoms at baseline were associated with a higher mortality rate in men.

Abstract

AIM:To check the safety and efficacy of boceprevir/telaprevir with peginterferon/ribavirin for hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 in the real-world settings. METHODS: This study was a non-randomized, observational, prospective, multicenter. This study involved 47 centers in Italy. A database was prepared for the homogenous collection of the data, was used by all of the centers for data collection, and was updated continuously. All of the patients enrolled in this study were older than 18 years of age and were diagnosed with chronic infection due to HCV genotype 1. The HCV RNA testing was performed using COBAS-TaqMan2.0 (Roche, LLQ 25 IU/mL). RESULTS: All consecutively treated patients were included. Forty-seven centers enrolled 834 patients as follows: Male 64%; median age 57 (range 18-78), of whom 18.3% were over 65; mean body mass index 25.6 (range 16-39); genotype 1b (79.4%); diagnosis of cirrhosis (38.2%); and fibrosis F3/4 (71.2%). The following drugs were used: Telaprevir (66.2%) and PEG-IFN-alpha2a (67.6%). Patients were naïve (24.4%), relapsers (30.5%), partial responders (14.8%) and null responders (30.3%). Overall, adverse events (AEs) occurred in 617 patients (73.9%) during the treatment. Anemia was the most frequent AE (52.9% of cases), especially in cirrhotic. The therapy was stopped for 14.6% of the patients because of adverse events or virological failure (15%). Sustained virological response was achieved in 62.7% of the cases, but was 43.8% in cirrhotic patients over 65 years of age. CONCLUSION: In everyday practice, triple therapy is safe but has moderate efficacy, especially for patients over 65 years of age, with advanced fibrosis, non-responders to peginterferon + ribavirin.

35. "In Less than No Time": Feasibility of Rotational Thromboelastometry to Detect Anticoagulant Drugs Activity and to Guide Reversal Therapy.

Author

Pavoni V, Gianesello L, Conti D, Ballo P, Dattolo P, Prisco D, and Görlinger K

Abstract

Anticoagulant drugs (i.e., unfractionated heparin, low-molecular-weight heparins, vitamin K antagonists, and direct oral anticoagulants) are widely employed in preventing and treating venous thromboembolism (VTE), in preventing arterial thromboembolism in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF), and in treating acute coronary diseases early. In certain situations, such as bleeding, urgent invasive procedures, and surgical settings, the evaluation of anticoagulant levels and the monitoring of reversal therapy appear essential. Standard coagulation tests (i.e., activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and prothrombin time (PT)) can be normal, and the turnaround time can be long. While the role of viscoelastic hemostatic assays (VHAs), such as rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM), has successfully increased over the years in the management of bleeding and thrombotic complications, its usefulness in detecting anticoagulants and their reversal still appears unclear.

Abstract

Background: Adherence to low salt diets and control of hypertension remain unmet clinical needs in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients., Methods: We performed a 6-month multicentre randomized trial in non-compliant patients with CKD followed in nephrology clinics testing the effect of self-measurement of urinary chloride (69 patients) as compared with standard care (69 patients) on two primary outcome measures, adherence to a low sodium (Na) diet (<100 mmol/day) as measured by 24-h urine Na (UNa) excretion and 24-h ambulatory blood pressure (ABPM) monitoring., Results: In the whole sample (N = 138), baseline UNa and 24-h ABPM were143 ± 64 mmol/24 h and 131 ± 18/72 ± 10 mmHg, respectively, and did not differ between the two study arms. Patients in the active arm of the trial used >80% of the chloride strips provided to them at the baseline visit and at follow-up visits. At the third month, UNa was 35 mmol/24 h (95% CI 10.8-58.8 mmol/24 h; P = 0.005) lower in the active arm than the control arm, whereas at 6 months the between-arms difference in UNa decreased and was no longer significant [23 mmol/24 h (95% CI -5.6-50.7); P = 0.11]. The 24-h ABPM changes as well as daytime and night-time BP changes at 3 and 6 months were similar in the two study arms (Month 3, P = 0.69-0.99; Month 6, P = 0.73-0.91). Office BP, the use of antihypertensive drugs, estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) and proteinuria remained unchanged across the trial., Conclusions: The application of self-measurement of urinary chloride to guide adherence to a low salt diet had a modest effect on 24-h UNa and no significant effect on 24-h ABPM., (© The Author(s) 2020.

Abstract

Wilms' tumour suppressor gene-1 (WT1) plays a critical role in kidney development and function. Several WT1 mutations can occur in exons 7, 8 and 9 and they have been associated with Denys-Drash syndrome. WT1 mutations of intron 9 have been reported too and associated with Frasier syndrome. However, overlapping and incomplete forms of both the syndromes have been described. We report a novel sequence variant (c.1012A>T) of the WT1 gene in exon 6 (p.R338X) in a 18-year-old girl with a history of Wilms' tumour, minor gonadal changes and relatively late-onset nephropathy. WT1-related nephropathies should be suspected in every patient with proteinuria not associated to immunological changes when a congenital neoplasia or minor gonadal anomalies are present.

Abstract

Multiple solitary plasmacytoma (MSP) is a rare plasma cell dyscrasia, characterised by multiple lesions of neoplastic monoclonal plasma cells. It differs from multiple myeloma by the lack of hypercalcaemia, renal insufficiency, anaemia and pathological monoclonal plasmocytosis on a random bone biopsy. We present the case of an MSP described for the first time in a patient on peritoneal dialysis. There are only few cases of MSP described in literature, and we performed a review of these cases trying to systematise the topic. The increasing clinical use of CT, MRI and positron emission tomography will enhance in the future the correct diagnosis of MSP.

39. Acute inflammatory bowel disease complicating chronic alcoholism and mimicking carcinoid syndrome.

Author

Abstract

We report the case of a woman with a history of chronic alcohol abuse who was hospitalized with diarrhea, severe hypokalemia refractory to potassium infusion, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, alternations of high blood pressure with phases of hypotension, irritability and increased urinary 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid and cortisol. Although carcinoid syndrome was hypothesized, abdominal computed tomography and colonoscopy showed non-specific inflammatory bowel disease with severe colic wall thickening, and multiple colic biopsies confirmed non-specific inflammation with no evidence of carcinoid cells. During the following days diarrhea slowly decreased and the patient's condition progressively improved. One year after stopping alcohol consumption, the patient was asymptomatic and serum potassium was normal. Chronic alcohol exposure is known to have several deleterious effects on the intestinal mucosa and can favor and sustain local inflammation. Chronic alcohol intake may also be associated with high blood pressure, behavior disorders, abnormalities in blood pressure regulation with episodes of hypotension during hospitalization due to impaired baroreflex sensitivity in the context of an alcohol withdrawal syndrome, increased urinary 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid as a result of malabsorption syndrome, and increased urinary cortisol as a result of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis dysregulation. These considerations, together with the regression of symptoms and normalization of potassium levels after stopping alcohol consumption, suggest the intriguing possibility of a alcohol-related acute inflammatory bowel disease mimicking carcinoid syndrome.

40. Cinacalcet is effective in the treatment of hyperparathyroidism secondary to malignant transformation of autotransplanted parathyroid tissue. A case report.

Author

Dattolo P, Michelassi S, Simone G, Ferro G, and Pizzarelli F

Abstract

Calcimimetics are effective in lowering serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels in hyperparathyroidism (HPT). However, they failed to reduce PTH levels in the long term in the setting of primary malignant HPT. A haemodialysis patient suffering from severe longstanding secondary HPT underwent total parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation of parathyroid tissue in her left arm. In the following years, she developed a severe HPT sustained by cancerous transformation of the parathyroid transplanted tissue and resistant both to pharmacological and repeated surgical treatments. The calcimimetic 'cinacalcet' was able to effectively reduce serum PTH levels over a 3-year follow-up and to induce disappearance of the neoplastic lesion on radionuclide imaging. Biochemical control of HPT was associated with a remarkable improvement in cardiac function.

Abstract

Background: The use of 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring is increasing in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients but the prediction power for cardiovascular complications of time-averaged ambulatory blood pressure components has been little investigated in these patients., Methods: We analyzed the prognostic power of 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring for all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in 168 nondiabetic, events-free hemodialysis patients selected from a total dialysis population of about 450 patients., Results: During the follow-up period (38 +/- 22 months), 48 patients died, 29 of them of cardiovascular causes. On univariate Cox regression analyses, the night/day systolic ratio resulted to be the sole blood pressure indicator to be associated with all-cause and cardiovascular mortality while left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) was a strong predictor of these outcomes. In multivariable Cox models not including LVH, the night/day systolic ratio maintained an independent prognostic value for incident outcomes. However, when both risk factors, LVH and night/day systolic ratio, were introduced into Cox models, LVH was no longer a significant predictor while the night/day systolic ratio became a predictor of marginal statistical significance., Conclusion: The night/day ratio emerges as the sole ambulatory blood pressure monitoring-derived indicator providing significant prognostic information in patients with ESRD. However, this indicator as well as LVH loses substantial prediction power in statistical models including both risk factors. The results suggest that the night/day systolic ratio and LVH provide overlapping prognostic information, a phenomenon in keeping with the hypothesis that they represent a common pathway leading to adverse outcomes in ESRD.

Abstract

Background: Autopsy studies have shown that hypertrophic hearts of uremic patients have peculiar characteristics. Changes in tissue structure are detectable by ultrasound as changes in echo reflectivity., Methods: We studied 96 dialysis patients, 18 hypertensive subjects with normal renal function and 52 healthy subjects. The echo pattern of interventricular septum was assessed by videodensitometry (VDT) (i.e., a computer-assisted quantitative analysis of gray levels). For each pixel a numerical value from 0 (black) to 255 (white) was assigned. From the resulting histogram of gray level frequency distribution, we obtained indexes of central tendency (reflectivity) and of homogeneity of distribution (uniformity)., Results: For the same septum thickness, dialysis patients showed a significantly greater reflectivity (87 +/- 19 and 70 +/- 17) (P < 0.001) and lower uniformity (137 +/- 32 and 184 +/- 71) (P < 0.007) compared with hypertensives. Hypertensive patients showed VDT parameters similar to control subjects in spite of significantly higher septum thickness (P < 0.003). Followed up after 5 years, dialysis patients with a reduced homogeneity of distribution of gray levels (lower uniformity) showed a significantly shorter survival (HR by Cox 2.5, 95% CI 1.21-5.27)., Conclusion: For a similar degree of cardiac hypertrophy, dialysis patients differed widely from hypertensives in their VDT parameters. By contrast, the hypertensive heart differed from the normal heart in the degree of hypertrophy but not in terms of VDT parameters. VDT parameters are independent predictors of all-cause mortality in dialysis patients.

Many studies have demonstrated that left ventricular hypertrophy is the most frequent cardiac alteration in patients on chronic hemodialysis. Autopsy studies have shown that hypertrophic hearts of uremic patients have peculiar characteristics, namely deposition of calcium salts, intermyocytic fibrosis, sometimes amyloid. None of the parameters obtainable from conventional echocardiografic images provides information on myocardial tissue structure. Analysis of "texture" originated as analysis of images sent by satellites for military or agricultural purposes and subsequently was applied to medicine for studying various organs like mainly and widely heart. Videodensitometry is a method for in vivo analysis of myocardial structure using computer-assisted quantitative assessment of grey levels of conventional echocardiographic images. In dialysis patients quantitative ultrasonic analysis of myocardial texture appears a promising technique for an observer-independent assessment of myocardial tissue characteristics. Although it may be hampered by many potentially confounding factors, quantitative echocardiography may offer useful parameters for the follow-up of myocardial structural changes in chronic uremia. Further studies are ongoing to completely understand the prognostic significance of myocardial ultrasonic textural alterations in dialysis population.
