Does aortic root remodeling lead to good valve stability in acute aortic dissection and preexistent root dilatation?
Root remodeling allows for stable valve preservation in patients with AADA and preexistent root dilatation.
Our data suggest that FSGS patients excreting large amounts of PDX-positive cells in their urine have a better outcome regarding kidney function and proteinuria compared with patients without excretion of PDX-positive cells. These data imply that PDX-positive cells have a positive effect on podocyte regeneration in FSGS patients.
